DEALING WITH STRESS IN DAILY LIVES

In our daily rush to reach work on time, complete targets, meet deadlines, submissions, exams, catching the train or the bus, we tend to neglect our mental health and physical health. We get so focused on taking care of other’s needs that we tend to ignore what our body and mind requires, some peace. Today, stress is one of the leading problems that people go to the therapists for. But unfortunately, in most cases, it is when the case has become a lot more worse. For a healthy life, stress management has become as important as following a healthy diet routine or a physical fitness regime.
Stress has its own set of ill-effects. Low energy, headaches, upset stomach, fluctuating heartbeat, higher frequency of falling ill, loss of sexual desire and so on. A constant amount of stress could lead to increased risk of getting heart diseases, diabetes, blood pressure. It is the body’s way of telling you to cool down a bit and not push yourself too hard. Getting a stress management therapy from a professional psychologist could help a lot. They are trained to treat their patients empathetically with a non-judgemental hearing and give their clients tips and exercises to help reduce stress.
You could relieve your stress by investing time in some or the other productive recreational activity. Anything, that you love to do and will teach you something new. Studies suggest that humans are the happiest when they do something they love. These happy hormones are very important for the mind to feel fresh and rejuvenated to take up any task.

MENDING AND HEALING RELAITONSHIPS

There is no relationship in the world that does not face problems between the two people. When we talk about a relationship, we have to keep in mind that we are talking about two different individuals coming together to form a beautiful bond of love. Two people with different ideologies and different thinking striving to be accommodating of each other’s needs and maintaining a balance in their own. This system of accommodating and acceptance is going to have a little bit of friction leading to minor fights. But what is important, is how the two people make up after the fight and whether they accept and move on from the incident. Sometimes, a fight or a situation can be so gruesome that both or one of the individuals cannot let go of it. That is when they need the help of a relationship advisor who may be a friend close to the family, a family member or a professional who is trained to deal with couples’ issues on a daily basis. This relationship advisor’s main aim is to first...

COMBATTING DEPRESSION WITH FAMILY’S HELP

Feeling sad is normal. We all feel sad from time to time. The reasons for this sadness may vary. Death or loss of a close one, break up, failure, fight, are some of the instances that make us sad as humans. But eventually, we learn to accept the facts of what has happened, and we move on. Gradually, you feel better and you start living normally again. But what if, this sadness never goes away? What if, you keep feeling sad, and not knowing what is making you sad makes it worse? If these are some of the things that you feel, or know someone who feels this way, then it might be a sign of depression. Depression can happen to anybody. It could engulf the happiest of souls, richest and successful people. It is important to remember that depression is not a phase as some people who are totally unaware of this condition claim it to be. It is a mental condition, an illness just as common as a cold and it can be treated. However, depression could be a lot more threatening that a genera...

HOW CHILDHOOD SCARS AFFECT ADULTHOOD

We all face different types of problems in our life. These can be problems in different areas in our lives. It could be our work, our family, our love life, relationship with our friends, career related or something else. Nobody is totally happy and without problems in life. But we have been bestowed with the ability to face these situations and find a solution for these problems on day to day basis. This is how life works after all. We face a problem, we tackle it and then we move forward to the next one waiting for us. Cycle of life as some people like to call it. But sometimes, due to some reasons, we may not be able to cope up with those problems. Nothing we do seems to work out or seems to ease the situation. This in turn leads to a lot of mental stress for an individual. There are many instances when one might seek help from people close to them. But if even that doesn’t seem to help, then maybe seeing a counselling psychologist might. In today’s world that moves forwar...
