Stress is a habit as is anger. We learn to react to situations, people, thoughts, memories, beliefs and expectations emotionally by becoming angry or upset. But, there is absolutely no law that states that you have to react that way. It is JUST A HABIT – and HABITS CAN BE CHANGED!

The many techniques offered during online sessions of Mindfulness Therapy will teach you exactly how to undo the "stress habit", allowing you to find more balance and happiness in your life.

Everyone that I have worked with really likes the Mindfulness Therapy approach that I teach for healing emotional suffering…

"Mindfulness therapy has helped me with my anxiety in a very significant way. No longer am I bound to my anxiety in a continuous circle. I’ve been able to see my anxiety for what it truly is, and it has liberated me. Thank you Peter."

Online Mindfulness Therapy for Stress Reduction provides an extremely effective tool for managing stress and anger. During these online mindfulness therapy sessions I will teach you specific ways of working with the habitual patterns of reactive thinking that contribute so much to emotional stress, worrying, anxiety and depression. This approach is very effective because it works on changing the underlying process that causes stress, and most people see dramatic improvements and significant reduction in their stress levels after 3-4 online sessions.

The first step in mindfulness training is to train ourselves to become aware of reactive thoughts the moment they arise. Of course our habit is one of unawareness, which results in becoming lost in our thoughts. The thoughts proliferate and overpower the mind causing emotional stress and anxiety. When the mind becomes crowded with thoughts it become less able to make decisions and skillful actions and more prone to error, which causes more stress-based thinking. Reactive thinking creates a vicious cycle that leads to more stress and more reactive thinking. If we do not gain control of this reactive process it can lead to depression and chronic anxiety. Chronic stress can also lead to health problems and can seriously affect our relationships, too.

When we are over-stressed we tend to become more irritable and angry. Our family life suffers and we often become more withdrawn and disconnected from life. Chronic stress can also lead to addiction, and is one of the major contributing factors for alcoholism and substance abuse.

Welcome! My name is Peter Strong, and I am a professional online therapist. I offer online therapy via Skype for anxiety, depression and for stress.

I teach Mindfulness Therapy for stress reduction. This approach is very effective for helping you change the underlying process that causes emotional stress. Now, what is that underlying process? Well, if you look closely you will see that the majority of stress that we experience is produced by uncontrolled reactive thinking. We may find some stimulus that generates an anxiety or concern and then immediately we start proliferating thoughts; thoughts around "What if...?" or anticipation of some kind of catastrophe. So, this kind of catastrophic thinking, rumination, or just general proliferation of thought from the single stimulus is what generates most of our emotional reactivity.

The purpose of online mindfulness therapy for reducing stress is to teach you how to prevent this process of reactive proliferation of thinking.

Mindfulness is a very sophisticated tool of awareness that allows you to see what is happening when it is happening so you can catch these reactive thinking processes earl on, before they start to gain momentum and cause emotional stress.

So that is, in brief, what we focus on during these sessions of online mindfulness therapy for emotional stress reduction. If you would like to learn more, please read my website and then please contact me and we can schedule a Skype therapy session to help you work on reducing your stress levels through mindfulness therapy. Thank you!

The Placement Technique for Stress Management

There are many mindfulness-based techniques available to help you better manage stress, but one that I frequently teach in my Skype sessions of Online Therapy for Stress is called the Placement Technique. You can try this for yourself and see how it works for you.

The basic concept is that stress is closely related to the spatial orientation of stress thoughts in the mind. If there is insufficient space, then the stress becomes more intense. It’s rather like cramming several people into a small elevator. There is not enough space and they end up stepping on each other’s toes, or jabbing each other with their elbows, etc. The interesting point here is that if you take these very same people and place them in a large space, like the hotel lobby, the level of stress becomes greatly reduced. The only thing that is different is the size of the space containing the people.

It works very much the same when our minds become crowded with intrusive thoughts. The congestion is the primary factor that creates the stress rather than the thoughts themselves. So, to help reduce stress we practice increasing the psychological space that contains the thoughts.

1. Establish mindfulness, which simply means allow yourself to become aware of thoughts as the arise, but without reacting to them in any way.

2. Greet the thought and imagine picking up the thought with your hands and deliberately placing it further away from you. I like to imagine the thought as a black pebble and I place it on a beach, which is a powerful symbol of spaciousness.

3. Repeat the Greet and Place routine with each subsequent though that arises.

It is really quite remarkable how effective this simple mindfulness technique can be in reducing stress levels. I find it invaluable when managing the stress around giving presentations. Just Greet and Place, Greet and Place each and every stress/worry thought.

OVERCOMING EMOTIONAL STRESS REACTIONS

Emotional stress is something that we all experience when we have to cope with the many demands and responsibilities of home and work. Stress can be defined as an intense emotional and physiological reaction to a situation or the mental representation of a situation as a memory or anticipation. Chronic stress is produced when stress reactions do not resolve themselves and become habitual. The sustained physiological effects of chronic stress can have a serious effect on the body and lead to an increased risk of disease.

The psychological effects of chronic stress produce fatigue, poor concentration and an impaired ability to perform tasks, which leads to more stress. Stress produces a general feeling of helplessness and negativity, both of which reinforce the stress reactions. This produces a lack of vitality, enthusiasm and creativity and many people describe chronic stress as a heavy blackness that covers everything and in its severe form chronic stress can result in depression, which is a state of extreme emotional fatigue and vulnerability. Chronic stress can result in an increased chance of accidents as well as reducing work performance. Chronic stress also reduces our listening and learning skills and this reduces the quality of communication in our personal relationships and family.

It is well-recognized that stress reactions are learned and originate from the influence of our own mental outlook and from belief patterns acquired from our parents, family and culture. Stress always contains both an objective component and a subjective component and in most situations, it is the habitual subjective emotional reactivity that generates the emotional tension and physiological characteristics of stress. There is pain and there is suffering. Pain is the objective component that is often inevitable or unavoidable, but suffering is a subjective reaction that we generate and add to the pain. The Buddha described this subjective suffering as dukkha and not surprisingly, mindfulness, which is one of the central teachings of the Buddha, was and continues to be very relevant for working with and resolving emotional stress.

The other major source of stress comes from unresolved traumas that result from physical injury, assault, domestic abuse and violence. In general this kind of trauma-related stress results from experiences and associated emotional reactions that we cannot process, because they are outside of our normal range of experience. These unresolved wounds become repressed and submerge into the subconscious mind where they continue to simmer and generate a generalized anxiety. This is described as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Occasionally, in severe cases of PTSD resulting from war or other intense situations, the stress reactions will erupt as nightmares and flashbacks in which the individual re-lives the trauma.

Whatever the source of the stress reactions, it is important to understand that each reaction has an internal structure in the form of negative thoughts and beliefs and associated emotional energy that gives power to these thoughts. It is often very helpful to examine these negative thoughts and try to change them. This is the approach taken in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Another approach is to change the emotional energy that empowers the thoughts and beliefs, because without this compulsive charge, the beliefs will have no power to generate stress. This is the approach taken in Mindfulness Therapy. Through careful attention and investigation of the emotion through mindfulness, we can uncover the internal structure of the emotion and discover what needs to change. As the structure changes, so does the emotion. Resolve this and you will neutralize the stress reactions.

Conventional talk therapy can be beneficial, but often just talking about your feelings does not transform the the underlying process that is the real cause of your emotional suffering.

The same can be said for medications - medication may reduce symptoms for a while, but medications are not able to change|are not effective for changing} the underlying process that causes your emotional suffering. That underlying process is psychological in nature and requires a psychological approach to bring about change.

The kind of psychotherapy that I teach online is known as Mindfulness Therapy, which can be extremely successful for managing all forms of anxiety as well as for treating depression and other emotional problems caused by habitual reactive thinking. Most clients see dramatic improvements after the first few sessions of Skype Therapy.

Managing Anger and Stress Reactions using Mindfulness Therapy

It's essential that you understand how to, basically, meditate on your anxiety and depression. You have to from a non-reactive relationship with your emotions. Most of us, needless to say, react to our anxiety, depression or other disagreeable emotions with avoidance or some type of resistance to those disagreeable emotions. We don't want these unpleasant feelings and we try to eradicate them. This is surprisingly the worst thing you can potentially do, because aversion and avoidance makes the anxiety or depression grow and become more powerful. Any form of reactivity strengthens strengthening the anxiety or depression and stress.

What I've found, and numerous others in the area of Mindfulness Therapy have found, is that what actually accelerates emotional healing is when we are able to hold the emotion in our conscious awareness without responding with habitual reactivity to the emotions with avoidance and aversion. When you do so you are learning the best way to actually be with the emotion without becoming reactive and without becoming overwhelmed by it. This teaches the mind a totally different way of processing that emotion, and this allows the emotion to change, to heal itself and to transform itself.

And so, if you're interested in online Mindfulness Therapy to manage your stress, then do please see my site and e-mail me and then we will be able to explore further whether this form of mindfulness-based training is best for your specific needs. So, see my therapy website and e-mail me.
