What To Do When You're Stressed


By: Godfrey Philander

This is a wonderful tip from Touch For Health to help you when you're stressed, angry, anxious or trouble. Try keeping your frontal eminences. These are bumps on your forehead that galore individuals hold instinctively when they're trouble.

For those of you who don't do this of course, let me help you locate them. Feel up from the middle of your eyebrows going towards your hairline. Your forehead comes outwards before it curves back in towards the hairline. Hold your forehead at the points where its furthest out - regarding 3cms (1. 25 inches) above the middle of each eyebrow.

While you hold these points think regarding the stressful event. It may be something that has already happened, something that is regarding to occur, or something you fear may never occur! Gradually you ought to find that the stress lessens.

You may use it for small things, but you may similarly use it for more traumatic events too. Whether or not the thoughts/images are too overpowering initially, imagine you are looking at it on a TV - you may always switch it off Whether or not becomes too stressful - you're the one in charge. You may watch it in black and white whether or not that feels easier too. Use it to defuse anything that you feel anxious, stressed, angry or fearful regarding.

You may want to do it various times covering dissimilar aspects of the problem. You may do them one after the other, or at dissimilar times, whichever feels best for you.

As you hold the points and think about/imagine the event, you will in all probability commence to feel calmer - you may even find that you commence to feel a small bored thinking regarding this scenario that antecedently stressed or angered you such a lot.

Why does it work?

These peculiar points on the forehead, known as frontal eminences, are reflex points with connections to the central meridian (involved with the brain), the stomach meridian (and your stomach often churns when you're anxious or angry), and the bladder meridian (trips to the loo/bathroom are often necessary when we're apprehensive).

I recently explained this self-help technique to a business colleague - a keen mountain biker who'd had a severe bike accident at 30 miles an hour and had broken his skull and collar bone. His bones had mended, but he was now most times fearful of the sport he loved.

This is what he wrote to me later:

"I don't recognise how to thank you enough for the technique you described to me over the phone the other day, it helped me enormously! "

The next week he sent me this message:

"Your tip worked once again last night - went out (in the pitch black with my Light&Motion 'daylighter' light) and did galore severe single-tracking and downhilling! ! ! I never thought I'd be doing that again - ever! Thank you such a lot! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! It was brilliant! ! ! ! ! ! ! "

It may be hard to believe that something this simple could be effective in removing anxiety and stress, but undertake it and see.
