Stress is not what happened to You but how You perceive it © Hans Selye

The time in which we live, is considered to be "the century of stress".

High pace of life, information overload, environmental degradation and other negative factors lead to the fact that most people experience permanent nerve overload. And since completely avoiding stress is not possible, then there is nothing else, how to learn to relieve stress.





Even short but regular relaxation is beneficial to physical and mental condition.

I think every person there are moments when he wants to hide in a small hole to isolate themselves from everyone and relax from around his problems.

And why not? Who prevents us to achieve this desire if not in reality, then at least mentally, in your imagination? Help us in this psychological technique of "Asylum" proposed by the Italian psychoanalyst Roberto Assagioli.

For exercise, close your eyes and mentally create a refuge – a real or imaginary place where you feel safe, relaxed and comfortable. Shelter can be anything – a cozy little house, a desert island, the common room, deserted beach....

In General, any real or fictional place from the past or present, from a dream or from a dream. The most important thing: in this place you feel completely secure, completely comfortable. And now look around. What surrounds you? Mentally create an atmosphere where you feel comfortable, calm. Surround yourself with everything that you like. Maybe you feel some pleasant smells? I hear some sounds, music? You warm or cool? Lighting bright or twilight?

Your refuge, no one else but you, you don't need to hurry, here you can wish and get anything you want, everything you could want.....

Ask! Ask to the max! Wish can be anything you want – wealth, love, beauty, strength....

Your refuge, you can do anything you want. Relax, gain strength. And when you feel refreshed, recharged, and confident person, go back to real life, back to those who need you and whom you love. But always remember that at any point in your life you can get into your shelter, there to rest and gain strength.

Can before bed to mentally withdraw into a refuge and to rest at night, to fall asleep there. But in the morning be sure to come back to real life. Otherwise, the day can pass counterproductive, as you're not mentally "here and now", and THERE, in his shelter.

The next exercise in the same way as the previous one helps to remove fear and tension.

Psycho Defender

Close your eyes and imagine that you are in the situation that makes you uncomfortable, frightening, annoying. Immerse yourself in your unpleasant feelings, not fear them. Now imagine a Defender – One big, good, strong hugs and soothes you, he takes you in hand, lulls, and fear disappears. In those good hands and strong you have nothing to fear, you feel completely relaxed and comfortable. You're completely safe.

This exercise can also be used for getting rid of old or forgotten, but occasionally pop up from the past fear. published
