  How to help yourself cope with stress

     To begin with, here's the story. Woman
- the gynecologist was expecting a child.   I waited with
confidence: now everything will come back to her
unborn souls that lie on her
professional conscience...
     Today this woman's child is 6 years old, and
he still doesn't talk even though
hears and understands everything. Mother stays for years
in a state of deep depression.  Difficult
say whose situation is worse.
     This woman was stressed at work
due to stress, and her psyche could not stand it. But
There are many professions that are fraught with the same thing:
teachers, social workers, insurance
agents, sellers, businessmen... Add
here's the stress that we all get into
during the day: at home, in transport, in
clinic, store. Even if we
Let's forget - our body remembers stress.
Muscles accumulate information about everything that
happens to us.  And the moment comes
when the body screams: “I can’t!”  But we don't
we understand why we suddenly start to get sick,
why there are continuous failures all around.
     You can, of course, go to
psychoanalyst to unearth during the session
I remember an incident from twenty years ago, with
who started it all. However, the procedure
this one is too long, very expensive and
doesn't always work.  From psychoanalysis
as a methodcorrections in the world are slowly
refuse.
     But if the body remembers everything, why not
ask him - you just need to determine
how. This is exactly what relatively
new discipline - kinesiology (kinesis -
movement).      Kinesiology was invented
Americans.  For Russia it was not necessary
just adapt - expand. Russian
soul is a confused soul... Something like this

meeting of the regional office

Researcher at the Moscow Institute
person.
     The meaning of all kinesiological
manipulation comes down to one thing:
eliminate the body's stress memory.
This is done in one session using
simple physical exercises.   But
They are simple only in appearance.   Work
specialist - kinesiologist - very thin
work that requires a sensitive response to
your muscle response.  How long will it last
session - half an hour or half a day - depends on
severity of the problem.  And then your body
it will be slow and careful
adapt to new conditions. And through
for a while you will forget to think that
were you worried about thinness, fatness, pain in
liver or fear of going to the dentist.
There are no miracles here: a kinesiologist,
taking offmuscle "clamps", apparently,
eliminates stagnant foci in the brain and gives
opportunity for your body
adapt to the situation.
     Appointment with a kinesiologist for Siberians -
a matter of the future.  But each of us can
try to do the exercises
Elena Ivanovna taught the listeners.
The result of their execution will be
harmonization of the work of right and left
hemispheres of the cerebral cortex.  These
exercises are very useful for children. How much
do them once a day?  - How much
want it.   The body will tell you, it knows
what is needed.

I. Separate breathing
     The effect of exercise is improved breathing
and electrolyte balance - Na and K.

     1. Press one nostril with your finger and
inhale through the other.
     2. Then, on the contrary, close the open
and open the closed one and exhale.
     3. Repeat 3 or more times like this
inhales - exhales.
     4. Change the starting position of the hands and
repeat the exercise again.

     II.   Cross marching to
place
     The effect of the exercise is unification and
separation of the two hemispheres
to achieve their better integration.

Technique:

     1. “Cross” march on
place, touching opposite knees
hands: with your left hand touch
right knee, and right - to the left.
Take 12 steps in total.
     2."In parallel" march on
place, touching the knees with the same name
hands: with your left hand touch
left knee, and right - to the right.
Take 12 steps in total.
     3. Be sure to finish
"cross" movements.     Again
take 12 “cross” steps.

Strengthening the effect of the exercise:

     1. When performing "cross"
movements look at the image obliquely
cross - "X", and when performing
"parallel" movements on the image
vertical parallel lines - "II".
  2. Touch your knees with the elbows of your bent arms.
  3. Turn around when marching
back and touch your heels with your palms
(dance "gypsy girl").

     III.   Drawing a sign in the air

increase the size of the drawn characters,
involve as many muscles as possible in movement
whole body.
     2. With each repetition of the entire complex

     IV. Strengthening "energy"
     The effect of the exercise is stabilization

     o - “my metabolism is improving.”

     Exercise time 0.5 - 1
minute.  The question is which hand?
put on the forehead, and which one on the navel, not
should be decided consciously.    Necessaryput your hands where they fit most comfortably
