Dealing with People is always challenging, here are are a few suggestions for your consideration.

Awareness is your most powerful tool when dealing with difficult People who seem to be able to push your buttons.
Try to create a mindset inside yourself where you do not feel the need to argue, to debate or to be ‘right’. This can also be said for those that have a need to be ‘the savior’, ‘the fixer’ or ‘the emotional punching bag’. What are the deep fears that drives these needs…A sense of balance and personal worth is achieved becoming aware of  your own fears and insecurities and finding effective ways of resolution and release of your triggers. This is not easy but it is a skill that can be learned and with practice, creates a strong sense of your own Personal Power. (As an example; most accomplished Martial Artists have a very calm demeanor because through years of training they have resolved many of their own personal insecurities and fears.)

For instance: In a personal confrontation strive to extend your awareness to read what the other person wants and WHY they need to have it so*. If the person you are dealing is verbally aggressive, argumentative or insulting then they are probably coming from a position of fear or unbalance of some kind. If  you cannot come to a workable resolution of your points of conflict then try to find a way of detaching yourself emotionally from the situation or person(s) until you can leave physically. This does not mean running away in Fear, but walking away with a sense of Self Respect and fear-less-ness from a no win situation.
The way of non aggression is not passive: It is learning to read a situation and then flow around or under it like water going around rocks in a river. This is a Taoist approach called ‘Wu Wei” the watercourse way.

(* I suggest you study  NLP in order to learn how to frame your words for maximum effect by reading people’s communication style etc..)

The majority of myo-fascial* injuries are not the result of an accident or sudden mishap.  Rather they are injuries that develop gradually over periods of weeks, months or even years as a result of repeated stresses of micro trauma (microscopic injuries/tears) to particular body tissues.
Symptoms such as pain, discomfort, headaches can occur when these actions strain muscles, tendons, nerves and other soft tissues of the body.  Damage and pain may occur if strained body parts are not given time to rest and recover. Because of the slow on set and often innocent character of the micro trauma the condition is most often ignored until the symptoms become chronic and permanent injury has occurred.
* (Myofacia-the layers of connective tissue that surround and separates muscle tissue layers. It is also a term that is loosely applied to conditions concerning the muscles, fascia, tendons and ligaments.)

Repetitive Strain Injury or “R.S.I.” is a term given to any number of different conditions which are mainly caused by:
• Frequent and repetitive actions
• repeated forceful movements
• Use of badly designed tools and machinery
• over straining
• Contact with sharp edges or hard objects
• working in cold temperatures
• Use of tools and machinery that vibrate
• poor job training
• Poor work station design
• awkward body positions
• Static or unnatural body positions
• pace of work (too fast/no rest)

Further Contributing Factors:
Fatigue and stress
•after work activities
•Health of the worker

 Examples of conditions associated with repetitive strain injuries are:
 • Chronic muscle spasm / pain / restriction
• Carpal tunnel syndrome (median nerve compression at wrist)
• Tendonitis (wrist, shoulder, elbow)
• Tenosynovitis including trigger finger (finger)
• Medial epicondylitis (golfer’s elbow)
• Lateral epicondylitis (tennis elbow)
• Thoracic outlet syndrome
(nerve compression syndrome affecting shoulder and arm areas)
• Tension neck syndrome (neck)

What makes ordinary movements such as gripping, twisting, reaching and movement that do not in themselves pose a risk, hazardous?  The risk of injury comes when these movements are done in the following manner:

Causes of RSI

Repetition
This is the strongest risk factor.  Involves movements repeated over and over such as data entry, which produces physical fatigue with little time for muscles etc. to rest and recover.  When the work activity is continued in spite of the developing fatigue injuries occur.

Body positions

1.) Awkward body positions – performing a repetitive task with the joint of the wrist, elbow and or shoulder in the extreme range.  These will be horizontal or vertical movements of the wrist to the extreme range and moving the fingers while the wrist is in the extreme position.  Unnatural postures and bad seating will speed up the deterioration of discs, resulting in tissue and nerve damage.

2.) Static body positions – performing controlled movements of the upper limbs such as sitting, while stabilizing the shoulder-neck region.  The muscles in the shoulder and the neck contract and stay contracted to hold the position stable for as long as the task requires.  The neck/shoulder muscles become fatigued, even though there is no movement.  The reduced blood supply to the remaining parts of the upper limbs accelerates fatigue in the moving muscles, making them more susceptible to injury.

Force full movement
Exerting force in certain hand positions such as pinch grip on a writing tool put a lot of tension on the tendons in your hands and wrist.  More force equals more muscular effort, and consequently a longer time is needed to recover between tasks.  Equipment that does not allow the best position of the wrist, elbow and shoulder substantially increases the force required.

Pace of work
This determines the amount of time available for rest and recovery of the body between cycles of a particular task.  The faster the pace, the less time is available and the higher the risk of repetitive strain injury.

Stages of Repetative Strain Injuries

Early stages:
Aching and tiredness only during work, settles over night or on days off.
• It’s the kind of pain that is dismissed as part of growing old, or just aches and pains
• There is no reduction in work performance
• takes weeks or months to develop
• This stage is still reversible

Intermediate stages:
Aching and tiredness starts early and persists longer
• don’t settle well at night / disturbed sleep many times

• There is a marked reduction in production at work or at home

Late stages:
The symptoms persist and pain is experienced all the time
• Usually preventing sleep or frequently disturbing sleep
• finds light duties unbearable
• This may be permanent

Everything is based on vibration and rhythm.

In our physical world the illusion of solidity is created by unimaginably vast intersecting fields of vibrating atoms, stepped down in frequency to a dense slow vibration.

Even our consciousness itself is a field of ‘self aware’ vibration existing at various levels at multiple frequencies. An integral part of the Ocean of Universal Consciousness and yet somehow apart from it as well. This Consciousness field of vibrating interlocking energy patterns ‘steps down’ in frequency levels until it is able to integrate into the ‘solid’ matter that comprises the Human Body. It does this through the rhythmic gateway of the Etheric Field.

The Etheric Field is the vibrational frequency that is one step above the energy matrix of the physical self. It surrounds the body like a nimbus. The Etheric field allows consciousness to interface with the denser energies that comprise the physical body. It does this through the medium of the cerebral-spinal fluid and central nervous system . The physical body itself can be likened to a complex ‘spacesuit‘ that is itself comprised of interacting energy fields of energy of varying vibrations and densities. It is through this vibrational symbiosis with the flesh that our pure consciousness (Mind) can experience the seemingly ‘solid’ reality of everyday life.

Our familiar five senses are all based on rhythm and vibration. In fact the various sense organs of the body can be looked at as a series of rhythm transformers. Various forms of vibrational/rhythmic impulses such as; light, sound, chemicals, heat, cold and pressure stimulate the nervous system in specific ways which in turn sends these impulses to appropriate centers in the brain.Here the various brain centers translate these impulses into the familiar senses of touch, eyesight, hearing, taste and smell.

We can use rhythm in a variety of ways to excite or relax our nervous system, to balance ourselves and access deeper layers of our consciousness.
All our bodily processes as well as our sense of consciousness and connection to the Universe is based on the harmonization of these interrelating patterns of organized rhythm and frequencies of vibration.

Pure energy vibrates to form atoms, these dance together to form molecules, molecules conga line together to form matter. The entire Universe is accessible through the spaces and intervals of vibrating energy and rhythm. Without vibration and rhythm there is only the stillness of non-being, the neutral zone of undifferentiated potential sometimes called ‘The Void’.
