An excess of stress can result in all sorts of problems both mental and physical. The mental issues that can arise from stress include anxiety attacks, although there can be other causes for anxiety attacks as well. Furthermore, it seems that the tendency of anxiety attacks is on the up. This is perhaps because of the increased levels of stress that everyone feels.

You just cannot avoid tales of misery and strife in the newspapers and on the TV. It seems that news casters take pleasure in in telling us how much trouble we are in from all sorts of things from terrorists to diabetes.

They also never tire of warning us of the risks from paedophiles, rapists and murderers. It is no surprise that everybody is stressed or that some people have converted this stress into anxiety and anxiety attacks or panic attacks.

These attacks are characterized by a sudden sensation of panic for no reason at all or unwarranted anxiety. These anxiety attacks are very distressing for those who suffer from them regularly.

There are lots of prescription drugs available, but these days many people try to do without drugs, preferring more natural remedies. One detail that many sufferers comment on, is that they feel much worse if they have a hangover.

Not that they suffer anxiety attacks while they are drinking, but that they get an increased number the following day, if they have a hangover. It follows then, that you may be able to lessen the rate of recurrence and the severity of your panic attacks, if you do not drink too much.

In this vein, sufferers have also noticed that they get more frequent and more acute attacks of anxiety if they are tired or worn out. Getting a good night’s rest will clearly help, if this is one of the causes of your panic or anxiety attacks.

On the dietary front, vitamin B12 has been pointed to as having a beneficial effect on sufferers. The vitamin B group help the brain to create serotonin, which is the body’s happy drug. A lack of seratonin can create depression. Therefore, ensure that you get your daily recommended amount (RDA) of vitamins in the B group, especially vitamin B12. B12 is readily available in natural foods, it is even in cornflakes, just make sure that you are in receipt of enough.

Many people have had great amounts of success by restricting their intake of sweeteners too. This includes normal sugar, as well as artificial sweeteners like saccharin. In order to obtain the biggest benefit you should try to monitor your mental reaction to sweeteners. Some may be perfectly OK for you while others may not.

Caffeine has also been linked with anxiety, so it might be worth attempting to do without ordinary tea, coffee and coke, to see if that makes a difference. You could try decaf, if you miss the taste of coffee or herbal teas.

Another proposed home remedy that has given great benefits is physical activity. If you feel an attack coming on, try to ‘take your mind off it’ by distracting yourself. A simple walk might be enough or a conversation with someone.

It is a distressing fact many people react badly to stress. In the worst cases of prolonged stress, this can lead to nervous breakdowns and depression. Stress is rarely cited as the cause of death but doctors know that stress can lead to other, physical and mental, disorders, which can then lead to death by suicide or heart disease. Stress is a killer, there is no doubt about that. Yet a certain quantity of stress often results in a job being done better.

The trick is to learn how to deal with the situations that we find stressful. If the cause of the stress is financial, learn how to handle your money better. If the cause is emotional, sort it out with your partner or get out of the relationship. If you are not happy in your job, get a new one or retrain. If you are content where you are, but you still need assistance to cope with your stress, then help is at hand.

There are many ways of working off stress. Some people like to go for a ‘swift drink’ on the way home and that is fine as long as it is kept under control. Others like to go training or jogging. Others like to relax in a hot bath, a Jacuzzi or a sauna. Some like a massage and others take up yoga and or meditation.

Stress is all in the mind. Even sport or training only ‘helps take your mind off’ your difficulties. It stands to reason then that if you want to overcome stress, you have to change the way your mind copes with it. Counseling will help some people, indeed they may need it, but most people can help themselves by getting a good book on meditation techniques.

Meditation is not easy to do properly unless you are a natural and there are some people like that, but for most of us it is a talent that we have to learn. If you want to learn and you stay with it, you will attain such a level of aptitude as will allow you to deal with stress and the problems that caused your stress. It will permit you to see the problems more clearly and maybe you will come to understand that they are not really problems at all – only challenges and tests, puzzles to be solved in a game.

Meditation is more than just thinking, but I cannot go into how to teach meditation in this short piece of writing. The Internet has loads of good quality Information on meditation, but I personally do not find reading a computer screen calming, which is why I advise getting a book, so that you can read it somewhere peaceful and practice what it explains.

Suitable places could be in your bedroom, on the decking or in the garden surrounded by your flowers. Indoors you could recreate the smells of the garden with scent and aromatherapy. Lavender is believed to be relaxing for a lot of people.

Some people like to play peaceful music, although it is better not to have words or you may become distracted. Some people like listening to whale songs. I like to start my meditation sessions by relaxing my whole body. I begin by picturing little people inside my legs, arms and body pulling wires to move my muscles. I start in my feet and tell each person individually to take an hour’s tea break and I watch him leaving his post, in my big toe, for example, and walking up the inside of my leg to the canteen (wherever that is). Presently he is joined by other colleagues from other ‘departments’, until not a bit of my body is capable or movement, because there is no-one there to operate the muscles or wires.

Then I go back to the office in my head and I open up a fissure in the ground. This crack keeps getting wider, very slowly getting wider and all the thoughts, problems and ideas that I have, play a game of jumping over the widening crack. Some are weak and fall down the crack soon. Other ideas are tough and determined and the crack has to get quite wide before they disappear as well. In the end, I am left alone, unless I decide to join in the game too and then the factory becomes totally deserted and there is a works shut down.

Everybody knows what stress is and we all think that the level of stress in our daily lives is incessantly on the rise. This is almost certainly true as well. However, stress can be a double-edged sword, stress causes stress, which means that being stressed is a vicious spiral. Stress ever generating more stress.

Our bodies can deal with a great deal of stress and so can our minds, but if stress levels are permitted to continue to rise unchecked, something will break. It might be your sense of mental equilibrium, in other words, you may get niggly or it may be your body. The biggest organ of our bodies is our skin and so it would not be strange if excess stress caused skin problems.

This is in spite of the fact that most peoples’ bodies last out reasonably well for sixty or seventy years. However, untreated stress can be pernicious, as I said before. Stress creates more stress and in this way, if the way your body complains about the amount of stress it is under is by breaking out in spots, pimples or acnes, then that can lead to more stress, which can make the break-out even worse.

Furthermore, the fact is that it is mostly teenagers who get acne, while they are going through stressful physical and emotional changes due to hormones. At this susceptible age, when teenagers are starting to discover their sexuality, the last thing they want is acne. This might even cause acne, which causes more stress, which does not help the acne disappear ad infinitum.

There are many possible reasons for acne, but there is also proof that Rosacea tends to get better and worse depending on our stress levels. Therefore, you may choose to try stress management as part of your acne or pimple control routine.

It is not probable that stress management alone will clear you of acne and other skin problems, but there is a very good case for including stress management in your attempt to keep your skin problems in check.

Along with stress management, you will have to try all the other recommended techniques, such as reducing fat in your diet, eating more fruit and vegetables, keeping your hair off your face and changing your pillow slip every night.

If you reckon that stress might be contributing to your acne, then you should follow a de-stressing routine, which could include altering your diet (in the same way as mentioned above); exercising more; learning relaxation techniques, like deep breathing or yoga; taking a massage or sauna and pampering yourself a little, possibly by listening to soothing music.

Other ways of reducing stress include reducing chaos in your life and setting targets for yourself. Stress often increases when we feel that we are no longer in control, so budget your finances and plan your routines. Stress can also increase if we feel that we are ‘not getting anywhere’, so learn to reward yourself for achieving targets that you set for yourself. These can be as simple, small or large as you like, but I find that small rewards for achieving short term goals works best for me.

Everybody comes under stress sometimes and for most of us that is while we are working. Having a boss is stressful enough, but at least the buck stops on his or her desk. When you work for yourself you have the stresses of normal workers, but you also have the added stresses of complying with the law, the taxation system and the unions and the consequences can be very serious if you slip up. Ignorance of the law is no excuse as the judge will say as the gavel comes down and your cheque book comes out.

People deal with their stress in their own ways, but it is useful to note a few of the popular ways to reduce stress levels in a home business situation. A simple yet often very effective way to lessen stress is to have a pertinent, but comic poster near-by for you to look at.

My Dad was a builder and on the wall opposite his desk was a poster of a monkey in overalls attempting to put building blocks on top on one another. Underneath it read: “You Do Not Have To Be Mad To Work here, But It Helps”.

It is an old one, but it was in the seventies and the whole point is that whenever he read it, it made him grin. Another poster he had was of a huge tiger stroling through the edge of a jungle clearing. Again inspirational. Others might choose Kipling: “If you can walk with crowds and keep your virtue” et cetera or a passage from the Bible.

Motivational posters, pictures and mantras are very useful, but sometimes you have to have more, because high levels of stress are considered an occupational hazard for people in business for themselves. One thing that I like to have near-by is a small fridge just for me (but I do work alone) and inside it are treats that I only touch when I need to.

There are expensive ice creams, connoisseur chocolates and my favourite drinks, including chocomilk, fruit-flavoured spa water and home-made iced tea and iced coffee. If i am stumped, I take a few minutes out to eat or drink something and relax by looking out of the window. Five minutes later, I feel capable to have another run at the problem.

Some people find that playing one of the games that comes with most types of Windows for fifteen minutes helps a lot, but I prefer to stay productive so I just switch jobs for a while. Like most people in the West these days, I have a broadband connection that is ‘always on’, so email is coming in all the time too.

If I am having a setback with something and the answer just will not appear, I switch over to Outlook and read and reply to a few emails. I find that taking my mind off the immediate problem for a time helps me to refocus, and I have not lost any time because I have to go through the mail at some time in any case.
