This is the 3rd part of the answer to the question about changing stress using the”conscious” part of the mind.
Question: “Is there anyway I can reduce stress without doing self-hypnosis or trance?”
Answer part 3
The answer to your question is yes there are many ways to deal with or manage stress on the conscious level. There are many books on the subject including some I’ve authored myself.
I believe it is important to know how to stop stress on using all the parts of the mind, conscious and unconscious.
Even positive events can cause a stress reaction. Most of my research and work is on showing people how to change the internal triggers. The reason I teach people to go to the unconscious is that this is where most habits and reactions, including the reaction of stress comes from. And the unconscious is the place where old “junk” can be released and deep permanent change happens.
Yet, there are many times I teach “conscious” or cognitive exercises for stress relief. If you are on the anxietycontrolcenter site you can find some more information on some of my favorite exercises using the conscious part of the mind on the right side of the screen under the topic Halt panic, irrational fears and Phobias. Tomorrow I’ll post an exercise to get you started.
