Conventional ways to cope with feelings fail on stress, but you can train the brain to other metodam



Light stress in daily life can interfere with the human ability to control their emotions. According to a new study, some of the techniques aimed at to teach people how to control emotions, such as those used in the treatment of social anxiety and other mental disorders, in a stressful situation will not be effective.

Typically, changes in emotions people use mind: for example, it is possible to think that the glass is half full, not half empty - these methods are called cognitive control of emotions. For example, when social anxiety people may think differently about people and thus change our attitude toward them. However, a similar training method requires effort, and the ability to regulate emotions depend on the prefrontal cortex.

The prefrontal cortex is sensitive to stress, which explains why the stress even perfectly honed techniques no longer work. However, the way to deal with this problem exist: cognitive regulation strategies in today's world are practiced so often that in the literal sense can be considered as second nature, and therefore, require less load prefrontal cortex. In other words, the more often the use of these strategies, it will be easier to cope with emotions, even in stressful situations.
