Mi Choza De Nipa

Image via Wikipedia By Dr Bill Maier Having another blue day today? Don’t worry, you’ll feel better. But don’t be surprised if your child misbehaves tomorrow. A new study has found that the day after mum acts sad or angry in front of her children , they are more likely to be defiant and inattentive. Children pick up on our mood and it affects how they feel. When they act out, often they are just reacting to what they have seen from us. Everyone gets sad from time to time but moping around does not make things any better. Try getting yourself out of the house for a while. A walk around the block is a great way to relieve stress or anxiety . Or take the children to the park and let them play while you relax in the shade with a good book. You might even surprise them by chasing them around the playground. It is difficult to stay sad when you are playing and having fun.

By Dr James Dobson There’s a new disease that’s quickly spreading through the work place. Its symptoms are stress , mental lapses and lack of focus. The name of this disease is OMS — Overnight Mail Syndrome. Modern technology and free enterprise have brought us many great inventions . Among them are fax machines and modems and overnight mail. Anything you need can be delivered by tomorrow morning if you call before 5 o’clock today. And in an emergency, this can certainly help you meet deadlines. Unfortunately, in most companies, every project has now become an emergency. We need it yesterday is the motto. The results? Mistakes are made, quality suffers and we begin to buckle under an increasing weight of stress and fatigue . Modern technology is great, but like most things, it is best if kept in proper balance and perspective. When our tools become our bosses we all suffer. We need a chance to slow down, to step back and take a look at the bigger picture and to nurture o...

Image via Wikipedia By Dr James Dobson When there are children in the house, a wife needs her husband’s understanding more than ever. No one works harder than a mother who has multiple preschool children. Not only does she have many responsibilities, she experiences an unusual kind of emotional stress as well. Youngsters between two and five years of age have an uncanny ability to unravel an adult’s nervous system , with their constant talk and their endless questions. Furthermore, they’re a perpetual danger to themselves and others throughout the day. Even if mum begins her morning with guarded optimism, by 4pm, the pressures often reduce her to a lump of play dough. Is there anything the husband can do to make things easier? Well, I suggest he starts with a little understanding. It’s a well-known fact that human beings tolerate stress much more easily if at least one other person know they’re enduring it. This is highly relevant to young mothers. The frustrations of ...

Image via Wikipedia By Dr Bill Maier We all struggle with fear from time to time. But when does fear go past anxiety to become a full-fledged disorder? It’s normal to get butterflies in your stomach before giving a big speech , or meeting a blind date. Anxiety is a natural response to stress . It actually prepares the body for threatening situations, and can be a healthy thing. But sometimes fear can lead to phobias or attacks. So, when does natural fear qualify as a disorder? In short, it’s when normal anxiety does the opposite of what it was designed to do. Instead of helping us cope, it actually prevents us from coping, dramatically disrupting our daily lives. They’re the result of a biological illness, usually caused by past experiences. Often it takes professional help to overcome them. If you sense you might have a problem, talk to your doctor about it.

Image via CrunchBase We all go through some rigorous activities, and while some of us are easy to recover, both physically and mentally, there are those of us who takes longer time to heal. When the sources of our fatigue is but a daily encounter, e.g., our work, then we have to learn ways and means of how to cope up with these energy sappers. A battery that isn't recharged, and is continually drained, eventually runs out of energy, and dies. We don't want that to be our case, so let us all learn how to manage stress - at work. Here is an Ezine article original. May it serve its purpose of letting us know, and in knowing, do what must be done - for us to be better persons - at work, and at home.

By Dr Bill Maier It is the middle of the night and you wake up in a cold sweat . Your heart is racing and your mind frantically works to figure out what is wrong. No, this is not a bad dream ... you are probably having an anxiety attack. Extreme anxiety is more prominent than you might think and people who struggle with it often do not know what to do or where to turn. Some stress is irrational and can become so severe that it leaves a person largely immobilised for weeks at a time. In these cases, it is almost impossible to overcome it without professional help. But other types of stress can actually make us stronger. Everyone goes through times of trial and confusion, and anxiety is a natural response . A healthy dose of concern can often help us work through a problem, or motivate us to change. The key is knowing when anxiety has gotten out of hand. If you go through long periods of depression or laziness on the heels of a stressful situation, you might want to see a doctor. Fro...
