I have had chronic stress and sleep problems for many years and have finally mastered meditation, relaxation, positive thinking. It was hard work in the beginning but now its fun and I look forward to it.

Learning to relax while I breath has helped me enjoy life whether I’m stuck at my desk at work or I’m sitting in the dentist office. It’s a great way to connect with the present moment.

Thank you for your excellent list.

It seems like my mind is always going 200mph with thoughts. I never did meditation before but in the last few weeks I have been doing it on a regular basis and it has been helping. I feel more energized and accomplish more after doing it.

Hi Boyan,

Thanks for your feedback. This article is written from my own personal experience and what I have observed from my students over the years. Whilst they may not be permanent shifts they can certainly offer some relief in the moment of overwhelm.

Nose breathing is simply my personal preference drawn from 15 years of yoga classes which I love.

Thanks.

Carole

I agree that it can be really helpful to sometimes write down ones thoughts. Why else are so many people journaling?
The post reminds me of the good old Karate Kid. When you don’t know what to do, always start with breathing.

Thanks for your comment and feedback, Boyan. I have had a slightly different experience. In my experience points 3, 5, 7, 8, 9 have worked well in the past to reduce the amount of thoughts in my mind.

Excuse my laughter! But this my friend is additional hallucination! There is absolutely no way you can fight your thoughts, that`s not possible! All those sort of ” techniques ” mentioned above are bluffs and do not in any case relate to the nature of the problem. The only solution i am totaly aware of is close to point 9. Focus on your breathing, but not in your nose but in your throat! When you try and find out for yourself, you can delete this guest post of yours and write something from experience. The inner dialog is a dreadful energy wasting thing same as the suggestions in this post, slight exeption makes point 9.

Good luck in your battles!
