Psychiatrist Daniel Amen, MD notes… “I use medication in my practice, but it’s not the first thing that I use. “I always think about the least toxic, most effective treatment. “And often, with anxiety, ADD, depression, social anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder [ I treat them ] with behavior techniques, and natural supplements, people can get significantly better. “So in my mind, I think, why not at least try that first? “If that doesn’t work, we have the medications that we can use.”

Only when we have lost control of how to control our stress levels that we become depressed and suffered from anxiety disorders. In fact, the body’s natural relaxation response is a powerful antidote to stress. Relaxation techniques like deep breathing, visualization, progressive muscle relaxation, yoga and meditation or even a relaxing massage can help you activate this relaxation response. When practiced regularly, these activities lead to a reduction of stress in your daily life and a boost in your feelings of joy and serenity.

Life is full of stress. Almost every day we are bombarded with the stress of work deadlines to bills and commitments at home. We worry too often when one is exposed to too much work, lack of time, too much debt, family problems and relationship problems. Stress leads to tension, physical and emotional tensions. In addition, stress can cause problems such as tension headaches, insomnia, problems focusing, fatigue, weight loss, weight gain and even suppress our immune system. Therefore, we really need all the help we can to get to learn to relax and calm our minds. So what can we do about stress? First, we must realize that how to relieve stress is very important for our health and well-being.

Then we must learn to begin to focus on reducing stress in your life before the stress becomes the best of you.

Learn to focus on your breathing, focusing on how you breathe and exhale. First, you need to sit comfortably, back straight or lie comfortably with your palms spread on the bed or floor. Then, while you’re breathing, inhale deeply and be aware of the air through the nostrils into your lungs and feel your abdomen inflate slowly. Then exhale slowly and be aware of your abdomen that is slowly deflating and feel the air coming out of your nostrils. Feel the air of rejuvenation and fully concentrate on the path of air from outside to inside your body.

As evidenced by the many, deep breathing relaxation technique is a simple but powerful. Deep breathing is very easy to learn and we can use it almost anywhere and anytime. It provides us a very quick way to get our stress levels in check. In fact, breathing is the cornerstone of various practices of relaxation and other can be combined with other relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation, aromatherapy, massage and music. Just a few minutes and a space to stretch.

A final point to remember when breathing is deep breathing in oxygen. The more oxygen you get, the less tense, short of breath, and you feel anxious. So next time you feel stressed, take a minute to slow down and breathe deeply and exhale.

It is an effective process of meditation to relax and calm your mind and body. Mindfulness meditation focuses on the presence which is now, instead of past or future. Place your attention on everything that is happening now. Make a “Body Scan” of your entire body. Focus your attention on different parts of your body, starting with your feet and work your way up to your knees, thighs, abdomen, hands, fingers, chest, face and finally the head. Feel totally relaxed and loosen your muscles while you concentrate on your toes, ankles, knees, abdomen, chest, hands, fingers in the nose, eyes, and finally at the top of your head .

Analysis Council cultivates alertness by focusing your attention on different parts of your body. When you focus on all parts of your body, you are subconsciously telling these parts of your body to relax in terms that will help you say stress and become totally relaxed.

Our stress is caused by something or someone all. Therefore, the visualization technique imagination to relieve stress between good use to help you say stress. First, close your eyes and relax. Imagine that someone, something or an event that is causing your distress and anxiety. Put this visual imagery on your Palm. Imagine that someone or something is in fact so small and tiny on your Palm. Once you can see this visual image of someone or something tiny on the palm of your hand, take a deep breath and just jump directly to that particular visual imagery outside of your palm. Then, slowly see that someone or something Let yourself go in the air and out into the outer space, never to return.

This visualization technique imagination helps you know that all of your stress activators are actually very weak and small. They can not harm or hurt you anyway. You can defeat them and make them disappear at any time you want.

Yoga is an excellent stress relief technique. This is a series of two mobile and fixed poses, combined with deep breathing. Yoga is known to be able to help your body totally relax and calm our mind and soul. The mental and physical benefits of yoga provide a natural counterbalance to stress and strengthen the relaxation response in your daily life.

The technique of deep relaxation is practiced in the last part of yoga is extremely effective to bring you to a state transquil and serene. In fact, this technique of deep relaxation can be combined with the technique of mindfulness meditation as mentioned above.

Getting a massage provides deep relaxation, and the muscles in your body relax, as your mind overstressed. One of my favorite massage therapy said to stress and promote good health is the Chinese traditional acupressure massage.

In acupressure massage, therapists use their fingers to manipulate the pressure points of the body. You feel pain on the body parts that therapists hurry, but you also get the stress and tightness of the different parts of your body are released and dissipated. However, you should note that you must use a qualified therapist and acupressure massage practitioner to massage you. Personally, I am doing acupressure massage once or twice a month for DIS-stress and bring well-being and good health to my body, mind and soul.

Another good stress relief technique is to listen to soothing music and relaxation. Soothing and relaxing music is medically and scientifically proven to bring calm to global body and bring your stress level to a minimum.

Listening to good music genres such as music quality classical music of yoga, music or nature to said stress. Moreover, listening to rock and metal very quickly and the music will actually be made us even more stressful and may impact on our well-being. Therefore, we must be selective in the kind of music we listen. The best music for stress relief is soothing and relaxing music. You can easily find in CD stores music many of your relatives neightbourhood or city.

Whatever stress relief techniques you use, do keep in mind that you also need to think positively and be optimistic. Learn to appreciate life and people around you. Give more than you receive. Take care of your family and friends. Show care and concern for people around you. And finally, take good care of yourself by eating well, sleeping well and exercising regularly. And do not forget, you love.
