How to develop emotional stability - victory over stress

Unfortunately, stresses have long become an integral part of our daily life. Often, faced with an unforeseen situation, an unprepared person does not immediately understand how he needs to react and what to do: call someone to help or solve the problem on his own. When thoughts in my head are confused, it is simply impossible to make the right decision. But a balanced person with a cold mind is capable of logical thoughtful actions and accurate calculation. Only the owner of the above qualities will be able to cope with the unexpectedly emerged non-standard situation. To easily and quickly solve any tasks, while maintaining peace, it is necessary to constantly develop the emotional stability. But far from each of us knows how to develop emotional stability, that is, the ability to keep control over emotions. Most people, especially overly sensitive women, manage their emotions seems overwhelming work. But in fact, it's not so difficult to do, of course, if you regularly practice. Psychological training should be done step by step in small steps, each time fixing the achieved success.

Currently, there is a large number of trainings, where psychologists help everyone who wants to learn the nuances of control over their own emotions. But it should be borne in mind that during the trainings it is necessary to work both on your own thoughts and on the body, as it is known that the human body instantly reacts to any irritating factors.

The first steps

1. To learn absolute calm, for the beginning it is necessary, like the wise Japanese, to work out the skill of peaceful contemplation of the beautiful( the blessing that there are plenty of beautiful landscapes on our planet).If you do not have the opportunity to have a regular pastime in nature, then for the training is quite suitable contemplation of the picturesque picture with the landscape depicted on it.
2. After mastering the skill of contemplation, learn to calmly look at the person( without twitching or looking away).To do this, you need to work out the so-called defocused view, that is, you should look not at one point, but at the person as a whole.
3. Start a special notebook-diary. The pages are divided into four columns. Each of them, title: "nothing special", "green", "yellow", "red".In the column, write down all the events on a daily basis: in the column with the heading "green" - minor events, under the heading "yellow" - troubles of an average degree, and in the column "red" - terribly unpleasant force majeure situations. The lesson, of course, is painstaking, but such a daily demarcation of life episodes will help you change your reaction to current events and then minor troubles, losing their significance, will be able to migrate from the green column to the column "nothing special", but the fact that you, for example,indicated in the red column you will transfer to yellow. Thanks to a careful analysis of the events that occurred during the day, you will train your emotional resistance to stressful situations and slowly learn to not worry about insignificant reasons.

Features of the mind

As you can see, there is nothing difficult in these exercises. If, through your own efforts, you eventually become a more calm and reasonable person, this will mean that your emotional stability has become higher, and that you have taken the path of improving the quality of your life.

The ability to strengthen the threshold of stress resistance is one of the features of the human psyche. Every time after stressful experiences our psyche tends to restore its equilibrium state. It turns out that mankind has a wonderful ability to adapt psychologically to any unfavorable factors, but the threshold of emotional sensitivity in people is individual. Therefore, in the same stressful moments we behave differently.

To train emotional stability follows, beginning with the realization of one's own weaknesses and shortcomings, because they strongly hamper the implementation of the planned plans. After such an awareness, schedule a plan for their elimination and decisively proceed to the training. After a while you will begin to notice that your business starts to be successfully and timely performed, the discontent of others disappears, and your emotional stability is stabilized.

For more stimulation to work on yourself, more often remind yourself that people with low emotional stability, who do not want or do not know how to control their emotions, are doomed to full of anxiety, emotions, defeats and resentment bleak life.

And the advice at last. .. Try to get rid of negative emotions in a timely manner, do not accumulate them in yourself, in any case do not spill out the internal aggression on others.
