The 10 Best-Ever Anxiety Management Techniques: Understanding How Your Brain Makes You Anxious and What You Can Do to Change It

admin — Fri, 19 Aug 2011 11:28:54 +0000

A strategy-filled handbook to understand, manage, and conquer your own stress.

Anxiety disorders-grouped into three main categories: panic, generalized anxiety, and social anxiety-are among the most common and pervasive mental health complaints. From the subtlest effect of sweaty palms during a work presentation to the more severe symptom of reclusion, anxiety casts a wide net.

Medication, once considered the treatment of choice, is losing favor as more and more sufferers complain of unpleasant side effects and its temporary, quick-fix nature. Now, thanks to a flood of fresh neurobiology research and insights into the anatomy of the anxious brain, effective, practical strategies have emerged allowing us to manage day-to-day anxiety on our own.

Addressing physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms, Margaret Wehrenberg, a leading mental health clinician, draws on basic brain science to highlight the top ten anxiety-defeating tips. Everything from breathing techniques and mindful awareness to cognitive control and self-talk are included-all guaranteed to evict your anxious thoughts. 20 illustrations

Weeks 7-9 Relaxation, Meditation, Coping Strategies, Creativity, Job Stress Management, Fiber, Protein, Carbs, Assertiveness, Heart Rate Training (12 Week High Energy Life Plan)

admin — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 19:36:55 +0000

“The concept of energy and the flow of that energy in the human body is the core of the current explosion in healing. The healing principle is to “balance” the energy in the body by using relaxation to counter the body’s reaction to stress.” The Berkeley Holistic Health Center

The High Energy Life Plan integrates all the tools for living a healthy, balanced life. Many times busy people will see or read something that they would love to integrate into their lives. They also lack the time to plan and execute a total health plan.

The Life Plan includes food/diet choices, exercise choices, and emotional/mental techniques for stress reduction. All the pre-tests, measurements, references for each of the three categories (diet, exercise, and emotional/mental tools) are given.

Our goal is that each person using the High Energy Life Plan can create and continually change her/his health plan. Health takes effort to maintain. Each of us needs to know what we need to attain our highest level of health.

Your plan will include mental, physical and emotional exercises that you can use for the rest of your life because a total life make-over is needed to get and stay healthy.

1) Our program includes affirmations, assertiveness, being centered, breathing exercises, cognitive reframing, communication, creativity, exercise, empowerment, food program, goal setting, guided imagery, journaling, meditation, mindfulness, muscle relaxation, nutrition, relaxation, support program, time management, transactional analysis, and yoga.

2) Daily we are experiencing an overload of information. By using RSS feeds, we have become accustomed to “sound bites”. So the High Energy Diet contains many descriptive links so you may use the individual information that you choose. So instead of our publishing a book for you, we have published all the information links that you can choose to create your own, individual book to use for your High Energy Life.

3) While researching for this High Energy Life Library, we found hundreds of books which were each filled with good direction. The problem is that we have less and less time to devote to even our own improvement. So we knew that short, to-the-point weight management techniques would be a time-saver and motivator to even the busiest person. So we offer these books as a basis for lifelong health program.

4) In summary, you may choose: the food program you choose, the exercise that you love, the emotional techniques to help you learn how to relax into stress, and the mental disciplines needed to focus your energy on the things you can change.

The stress and anxiety which performers experience at auditions and concerts can be managed through the use of many and varied techniques, here explored in a comprehensive book by oboist-composer Stuart Dunkel. Written as a practical guide for immediate use, in language free of confusing psychological terminology, The Audition Process offers a compendium of approaches as presented by other musicians, psychologists, and athletes.

The principal problem areas that one must confront, before and during an audition, are presented in four wide-ranging topical sections.

I. The psychological adaptations to the stresses encountered. This includes understanding how the self operates, the pressures encountered, the indi vidual fears that must be addressed and the self-consciousness that precludes distraction.

II. The reality of the music business. This section encompasses methods of dealing with criticism, failure, jealousy, the realization that one’s self-worth is no t directly related to how well one’s work is accomplished.

III. Coping techniques and strategies. The focus here is on performance preparation, including understanding and managing feelings, utilizing self-talk, improving concentration, relaxing, using humor as an outlet for anxiety, adopting better nutritional habits, and the proper use of medications. IV. Successful outlooks and attitudes for auditioning. Here, Dunkel explores modes of confidence-building, suggestions for viewing an audition as a pos itive experience and how one’s unique individuality can give strength and power to a performance.

Do you ever feel frustrated or discouraged by seeming lack of “willpower” or self-discipline? Ever feel “out of control” with your eating? Do you ever find it difficult to “stick to” a plan for weight loss or maintenance? This extremely effective weight loss and weight management cassette provides you with the tools to take your own control of your eating patterns and your health. It utilizes vivid, detailed visualization and guided imagery, blended throughout with wonderfully relaxing, calming breath techniques and deep physical relaxation. This combination creates a deep state of relaxation and self-hypnosis, in which your own healthy weight goals and the appropriate steps to reach them, can register deeply in your inner mind – where they can motivate you, keep you on track, empower you to follow through on the better food choices you want to make, and to firmly establish the healthier eating habits that will help you reach and then sustain your desired weight level. You will find this to be one of the most soothing and relaxing experiences you have had, and yet it will simultaneously give you the skills — along with tapping into and strengthening your own inner resources of self-discipline and determination (i.e., “willpower”) — to resist cravings, to steer away from unhealthy foods and toward better foods for you, to implement moderation and portion control, and even to engage in exercise activity to complement your new healthful eating patterns. Many have reported after using this tape, that they were delighted to discover that they simply no longer had the desire for the amounts or fattening types of foods that they had before; their cravings had diminished or disappeared – it had worked without their making a conscious effort, and had given them the capability to accomplish their weight goals.
