By Paul Jarrico

We are all living in a very hectic world now adays ; it feels like the time is ticking away quicker and quicker. Works and family duties are overpowering us at times. Thus, it is not surprising that anxiety and stresses creep in our lives. Nobody could eliminate stress completely ; what we could do however, is learn to control and manage stress before it takes control of our lives.

Stress and uneasiness are the major cause of panic attacks. If not dealt with, it can have an overwhelming effect on our life. Especially for people with A-type personalities, the perfectionism they seek in everything they do never quite measures up to their expectations. Please understand that no one is ideal ; humans are all imperfect living in an imperfect world. Don't stress it out and make yourself crazy, just take it all in your stride.

There are several alternative ways to deal with stress ; just some straightforward exercises can help to stop the attack of stress. For example, just target breathing properly can take away the stress from your intelligence and bring you back to a calm state. Anytime when you feel stress, put your left hand on your stomach and begin to inhale deeply and slowly ; you should feel that your stomach expands when you breathe in air ; that's's the best way to breathe.

Going outside for some fresh air can also help. Walking or running for twenty minutes can release endorphins which assist in relieving stress. Listening to classical music also helps as it lowers the blood pressure, and brings calm within.

Sometimes, however, stress reveals itself in alternative routes. Fear, feelings of pressure, inability to focus and tremors ; all these are symptoms of stress that can end up in uneasiness, panic attacks, and the fright or flight syndrome.

For example, you are alarmed when talking in front of a bunch of folk ; anxious when an aircraft's taking off ; twitchy during your wedding day, and so on. There is truly no comprehensive cure for fear and anxiety. To conquer it, you'll have to face your fear ; admit that you are alarmed, try to understand it, and do the honest thing anyway. Develop faith that you'll finally conquer your fear and anxiety.

If stress is getting you down, examine the cause. Determine the origin, talk to a buddy or debate it with a professional or a loved one. Stress, if not acted on, could cause major health issues. Learn how to live and deal with it at any price, if you can.

Remember that there is no such thing as 'stress-free' life as stress is always around us ; unless naturally if we are dead. As long as we are still respiring, we are susceptible to stress and anxiety. What we are able to do however, is to develop a'stress-proof' life. There are plenty of successful self-help techniques you can learn how to stop stress and panic attacks on its track. . - 30535
