In her poignant book, As A Matter Of Course, Annie Payson Call points the way to clear nervous tension, which is paramount to our overall wellness. The aim of her book, written in 1920, is to assist in the removal of the nervous irritants that plague us. They are not only the cause of much physical and mental disease, but materially, these nervous disorders interfere with the best possibilities in every day life. Today, her words still ring true!

She refers to these nervous irritants as "stones" which, if not addressed, makes us stumble and fall. We must recognize they are a dangerous obstacle to our nervous system and must be cast aside until they become "A Matter Of Course," or part of our everyday routine!

In dealing with ourselves and others, there are innumerable "stones." In each chapter there are pearls of wisdom she presents to her readers regarding how to deal with each subject . Physical care is needed and the sooner our health instinct is developed and is taken as " A Matter Of Course," the sooner the body can be treated with true courtesy and become the perfect servant.

Rest, fresh air, exercise, nourishment, and amusement all silence the mind and give our tired nerves a blissful state and a "holiday like" spirit.

Freedom and a healthy nervous system are synonymous. We cannot have one without the other!
