How to deal with stress?
In addition to genetic factors, the causes of many psychological problems are also related to personal experience. Long-term stressful environments may have adverse effects on an individual's mood, which in turn translates into psychological problems. Immature stress reduction methods may also have adverse effects on an individual's health, such as immature self-defense mechanisms such as depression, withdrawal, projection, and isolation, as well as substance abuse. Therefore, it is very important for everyone to master mature and healthy self-decompression methods.
And major special life events, such as Miss Li's case, are likely to trigger post-traumatic stress. Without a reasonable solution, there can be lifelong shadows on the individual. At this time, professional psychological help is very safe and necessary.
- Concentrate for a few minutes a day
For example, the current job is to type this report well, and forget everything else and don't think about it. In your spare time, you can take a few minutes to relax, take a walk, look at the greenery, or pay attention to everything around you and tell yourself what you see? hear what? What does it feel like? Wait a moment.
- Slow down your speech.
We often use the right hand to answer the phone, while the left hand is still flipping through documents. Or deal with all kinds of people and say all kinds of things. Remember at this point: try to stay optimistic and speak slowly. You can also tell a little joke with a colleague and have a good laugh. Laughter can not only relieve tension, but also enhance the body's immune function.
- Worry about one thing at a time
Researchers at Harvard University studied 166 married couples over a six-week period and found that women are more likely to feel stressed than men because they think about the same things more than men.
- Sit quietly for 20-30 minutes.
You can choose to meditate for 20-30 minutes during your lunch break or before going to bed at night. Thinking about nothing and completely relaxing yourself is also a great way to relieve stress.
- Say or write what worries me?
Keep a diary, blog, communicate with friends often, and don't let yourself feel alone and helpless. US researchers divided some patients with rheumatoid arthritis or asthma into two groups. One group did not need to keep a diary, and the other group asked to keep a diary carefully every day, including their own fears and pains. Researchers found that a group of people who kept a diary had less worry and anxiety about their illness.
- Allow yourself a day of total relaxation and remember at least one good thing that happens each day.
During the holidays, read novels, sing and dance, drink tea, go on outings, go shopping, listen to music, etc. , or simply doing nothing, sitting in a daze by the window, are all good ways to relieve stress. No matter how hard or unhappy you are today, when you get home, share with your family a good thing that happened today.
- No matter how busy you are, keep exercising.
The researchers found that after 30 minutes of cycling, the subjects' stress levels dropped by 25 percent. Walking for 30 minutes every day or 1 hour after dinner is good for decompression and health, and you need to persevere.
