EMOTIONS AND STRESS

What is stress? According to Dr. Hanse Selye, the scientist who first talked about it. “It is the non-specific response of our body to any demand we put on it”.  This is a reason why the stress can be positive (eustress), or negative (distress).

Positive is when something agreeable comes to our lives, something we like and makes us happy or content. On the other hand, it can be negative, when it is something we dislike or has a negative impact on our feelings. An example of this is frustration, anger, being agitated, when you must meet a deadline, or when you are afraid of doing something new.

When you live under long periods of negative stress, this can lead to emotional disorders developing depression, worry, anger, anxiety, illnesses (because of the impact in the immune system), bipolar disorders, lack of concentration, lack of self-esteem, deficiency in school children, and much more.

All this indicates that STRESS is a normal reaction in our daily lives. It depends on what you do, or know what to do, to control it, to stop the effects of negative stress on our health. When something affects us negatively for a long period of time, the stress becomes unhealthy.

Some situations like being in a traffic jam, laud music, crossing a street full of traffic, can cause temporary stress. But there is other type of stressors where, we must be careful on how to resolve the problems like:

•      Conflicts at the workplace
•      Abusive relationships
•      Financial issues
•      The loss of a loved one
•      Parenting
•      Unresolved emotional pain 
•      A medical diagnose or a health situation.

Whenever possible remove yourself of the place/area responsible for your stress. Look for help, especially if your health has been affected.

In the classes offered by the SILVA METHOD, one of the firsts things we do is to emphasize the importance of learning how to manage stress, analyzing the physiology of stress and teaching exercises that help the participants learn what to do when negative stress is affecting them.

The classes are also full of practical techniques for our benefit, and we can use them daily. Taking us to experiences that assure us the discover of the potential of our minds, when we achieve our personal and professional GOALS, a guarantee of a SUCCESFUL LIFE

Napoleon Hill suggests in his book “The Laws of Success” that the most successful people of his time, had learned to tap into their sixth sense. A genius is “a man who has discovered how to increase the intensity of thought to a point where he can freely communicate with sources of knowledge not available through the ordinary rate of thought”.
