Meditation Can Improve Your Teenager

meditation can improve your teenagerEverything about a teenager is changing, physically, mentally and emotionally. Meditation can improve your teenager in this time of rapid change giving the mind something to productive to focus on can benefit all the changes on all levels. Giving children and teens tools that give control over their thinking and feeling can have a very positive effect on their development.

Ann Douglas wrote over at thestar.com about mindfulness meditation and teenagers…

Meditation Can Improve Your Teenager

Here’s some good news about that much talked about teenage brain. Teenagers who practice mindfulness — a technique that involves focusing on what is happening in the moment and being aware of and accepting of emotions — benefit from increased self-control, healthier relationships, and improved overall well-being.

Psychologists at Australia’s University of Wollongong and George Mason University in Washington, DC, studied mindfulness in 776 Grade 10 students over a one-year period. The results of their research were published in the August 2011 issue of the Journal of Adolescence.

Mindfulness is a useful strategy for teenagers because it allows them to think through their emotions as opposed to reacting impulsively — something their brains are primed to do during the teen years.

“The teen brain is still undergoing a period of active construction,” explains Dr. Jean Clinton, an associate clinical professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioural Neuroscience atMcMaster University, division of Child Psychiatry. “And, during this time, teenagers are more reactive. Mindfulness allows them to pay attention to their feelings rather than being their feelings.”

Mindfulness also involves accepting what you are feeling and understanding that an emotion is just an emotion: it doesn’t control you, explains Shelley Hermer, a social worker based in Peterborough, Ontario. “Feelings come and feelings go. And there’s no such thing as a bad feeling. Being angry is just as valid as being excited.”

Clues To Your Toddlers Gambling Problem

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

toddlers gambling problemDoes your child have a gambling problem? I thought I’d lighten up your day and let you know the clues to your toddlers gambling problem according to a recent study. This is from an article in CTVNews

Clues To Your Toddlers Gambling Problem

Parents who dismiss a toddler’s foot-stomping and tantrum-throwing as ordinary growing pains may want to revisit that idea. Defiant, impulsive behaviour in preschool could hint that a child is at risk of developing a gambling problem later on in life.

At least that’s the takeaway from a recent study published in Psychological Science linking “under-controlled” temperament in childhood to compulsive gambling.

Researchers established the link by observing the behaviour of more than 1,000 toddlers from New Zealand and then following up with those individuals a few decades later.

Participants who were labelled as more restless, moody or inattentive than other three-year-old children were twice as likely to struggle with gambling at ages 21 and 32, the study found.

For David Hodgins, a psychologist who specializes in addictive behaviours, the study could help demystify the connection between impulsive gambling and the human brain.

“Studies like this help us clarify what the pathway is towards developing gambling and other addiction and mental health problems,” said Hodgins, head of the University of Calgary’s psychology department.

Up until now, Hodgins said the medical field’s understanding of gambling issues and other addictions has been limited to studies of people who have already developed a problem.

All study subjects were born in the same birth cohort — between April 1, 1972 and March 31, 1973 — and were monitored by researchers as early as delivery. Investigators collected prenatal statistics on the individuals, and then followed up with the kids three years later.

At that point, the toddlers underwent a 90-minute assessment, which put their cognitive and motor skills to the test. An examiner then took note of each child’s overall temperament, using what the study refers to as “a standardized behavioral-observation inventory.”

Researchers used the results to sort the children into five temperament groups:

  1. Under-controlled (10.4 per cent)
  2. Inhibited (7.8 per cent)
  3. Confident (27.5 per cent)
  4. Reserved (14.8 per cent)
  5. Well-adjusted (39.6 per cent)

Children in the “under-controlled” category were viewed by researchers as being willful, impulsive and overtly negative. Compared to their “well-adjusted” and even “reserved” counterparts, these toddlers were twice as likely to exhibit signs of disordered gambling in adulthood.

Now to tell you the truth I’m not sure this is an actual study or someone pulling our legs. I mean the leaps in logic and the large gaps in the methodology are so big you could drive a tank through it. Anyone familiar with any of the energy psychology’s or quantum medicine techniques already knows techniques to give anyone control over their emotions and with control over your emotions you can dissolve an addition.

The Power of Self Control

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

the power of self controlHave you ever thought about the power of self control? Imagine the benefits you would have. People would follow your lead more often. You would be able to get your point across easier. You would enjoy being with others or being alone equally as well. You would wind up getting more of what you want and less of what you don’t want. Self control includes emotional control and often they are interchangeable.

Karyn Hall, PhD wrote over at PsychCentral about possible ways to increase your power of self control

The Power of Self Control

Understanding how to maximize self-control of your emotions and behavior can decrease some of the emotional pain that emotionally sensitive people experience.

Not acting on impulse and thinking through how your actions in the short-term will affect your long term goals will decreae the suffering that you experience.

The good news is that some of the most effective strategies are everyday actions that are only surprising in terms of their effectivenss.

Ways to Strengthen Self-Control

Slowing Your Breath: Slowing your breathing to four to six breaths per minute will activate the prefrontal cortex and increase heart rate variability which helps shift the brain and body from a state of stress to self-control. When you are in stress mode, you are not able to think as clearly.

Your brain is in automatic survival mode, the need to do just what works in the moment. This is helpful in true emergencies but keeps us from seeing the big picture, our long-term goals. When the brain turns off the stress alerts, you have more access to the plan-ful behavior.

Meditation: Meditation improves attention, focus, impulse control and self awareness. Initial results can be seen within three hours and significant improvements with eleven hours of practice. McGonigal (2011) says that over time the brains of meditators have more gray matter in the prefrontal cortex as well as brain regions that are related to self-awareness. Practicing meditation over time will build your ability to stay aware and manage your impulses. Practicing mindfulness will also work.

Many people stop meditating because they are “bad” at doing it. Their minds are skipping from topic to topic.  Even when your meditation practice seems distracted, you are practicing bringing your mind back to a focused goal and that makes a difference in your ability to focus and concentrate when you aren’t meditating.

Treatment For Borderline Personality Disorder

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

treatment for borderline personality disorderIf people really want to get treatment for borderline personality disorder it would help by looking at it in a different way. And here is the way…100% of the 9 criteria for BPD are emotionally based and if those aspects are addressed or reversed BPD is no longer a problem. And there is a quick way mentioned later in this article.

However, most people identity with emotions as real and not within the control of the individual. And if they are not then any of these 9 criteria qualify you to get treatment for borderline personality disorder according to the American Psychiatric Association DSM-IV. The bible for diagnosing mental disease.

1. frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment. Note: Do not include suicidal or self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5

2. a pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized by alternating between extremes of idealization and devaluation.

3. identity disturbance: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self.

4. impulsivity in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging (e.g., spending, sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, binge eating). Note: Do not include suicidal or self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5.

5. recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, or threats, or self-mutilating behavior

6. affective instability due to a marked re-activity of mood (e.g., intense episodic dysphoria, irritability, or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and only rarely more than a few days).

7. chronic feelings of emptiness

8. inappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (e.g., frequent displays of temper, constant anger, recurrent physical fights)

9. transient, stress-related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms

Treatment For Borderline Personality Disorder

Kate Thieda wrote over at psychcentral

If you have a partner with borderline personality disorder (BPD), the phrase “walking on eggshells” likely defines your life. People with BPD struggle to regulate their emotions, even though the emotions they experience are the same as the rest of us.

During “frantic efforts to avoid abandonment,” your partner may constantly seek affection and approval as a way to prove to themselves that you love them and are not going to leave. You may receive multiple phone calls and texts throughout the day, or have to say something specific to your partner when leaving in order to reassure them that you will be back and are not mad at them. Your partner may also act needy so that you will feel that you cannot leave them alone.

The “intense and quickly changing moods” have probably taken you by surprise before, although partners of those with BPD often get skilled at noticing the warning signs that might go undetected by others. Your partner may be laughing with you one minute, but then get offended by something you say, and become angry and full of rage the next minute.

People with BPD take much longer to calm down from their emotions, once triggered, but—interestingly, yet frustratingly for those around them—quickly forget the emotion once they are calm again, and may wonder why you are still mad at them afterwards.

Like the mood swings, “difficulty controlling anger” can make having a partner with BPD a frightening experience. People with BPD often have problems with a lack of impulse control as well, which means anger can turn into violence. Although this is not true for all people with BPD, it does happen.

This is because the brain centers that control logical thinking are overpowered by the emotional centers. At that point, reasoning with the person is nearly impossible, and they may throw objects, punch walls, slam doors, or break windows.

If your partner has “chronic feelings of emptiness,” they may make comments about how no one cares about them, even though they have friends and family who care about them. They may also engage in risky behaviors, such as promiscuous sex, drugs and alcohol, or gambling, in order to attempt to “fill the void.” Other ways people with BPD to try to end feelings of emptiness is to change jobs frequently, shop for things they don’t need, and throw parties to prove they have worth.

Treatment for borderline personality disorder can be very simply when it is addressed from an everything is energy point of view. When we move from the concept of emotions being real and simple energy in motion it allows us to not get emotionally attached and when you are not emotionally attached any of the 9 symptoms listed above are no longer a problem.

And the nice thing about working from the everything is energy level, it doesn’t take that long to get results. Usually it can happen in one to three session and the tools are very easy to learn once you are no longer a slave to what used to be overpowering emotions are available. If you are interested contact us and we’ll see what we can do to help.

In the mean time share treatment for borderline personality disorder with your friends and family because most of us know someone who has a few of the nine symptoms listed above.

The Bully Named Chip

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

the bully name chipTalk is cheap so it’s a good place to start. The inability of schools to teach emotional control to students has resulted in more and more bullying in schools. The bully named Chip represents where emotions are blocked which comes from the saying he’s got a chip on his shoulder meaning, he’s looking for a fight and is daring anyone to knock the chip off his shoulder.

The Bully Named Chip

Michael Jascz the director of The Relationship Foundation wrote in the Huffington Post…

Bullying and other forms of social cruelty in high schools will not end just with anti-bullying campaigns. In order to change a culture of bullying and aggression, schools must implement teachings that provide an alternative. Bullying prevention begins with encouraging students to talk about their feelings in a language that is safe and helpful. Social skills will not come from an occasional assembly or after a bullying case has gained public attention. Social and emotional education should become a learned vocabulary in day-to-day life.

We’ve found through our work in New York City high schools that encouraging students to communicate their feelings respectfully is not as challenging as it might seem. Students want to talk about relationships. In our classes, students write essays, journal entries, poems and self-evaluations about the subject. Having a space to discuss relationships takes this complex issue into the realm of honest discussion and awareness. One of the questions we ask students at the beginning of our course is how they would feel if made fun of by a friend in front of their peers. Many students are unable to articulate their feelings at first, saying they would “brush it off” or even “hit someone.” After a few classes, however, they are able to describe their feelings more clearly as they become empowered with healthy alternatives. In a safe environment where students are encouraged to discuss their emotions and needs, aggression naturally decreases as students are better able to understand themselves and empathize with others.

The full article on bullying is here.

This writer finds it quite amazing with all the cutting edge technology that is so easy to learn and that is extremely effective in removing the bully named chip by simply relieving the pressure of constricted or restricted emotional charge, that creates the emotional overwhelm in the first place that people are going the lesser route, the harder and longer route of encouraging students to communicate their feelings respectfully.

The amazing thing is that no one has to communicate any feelings to be able to remove the emotional charge that creates the problem in the first place. Simply self help tools like  Basic PEAT. Emotrance or EFT can solve 90 to 95% of the bully named chip problem. And these tools are easy to teach and even easier to learn.

If you want to stop the bully named chip please share this with others.

Liar Liar When Was The Last Time You Were Lied Too?

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

liar liarLiar Liar pants on fire is a statement children use when they catch someone in a lie. As an adult the question is liar liar when was the last time you were lied too? You may not know the answer to that question and it might help it if a person’s nose did grow when they lied  and yet there are tail-tail signs that if you pay attention to you can get a better idea of when someone is not being truthful in what they are saying.

Unconsciously you already pick up these signals and you suspect someone might not be telling you the truth. You just might not be aware of the signals you are picking up. The Telegraph a United Kingdom publication wrote about a study that claims we unconsciously make certain facial gestures when we are lied too.

Liar Liar When Was The Last Time You Were Lied Too?

Researchers found four facial muscles “leaked” a person’s true feelings, such as guilt, amid intense emotional pressures.

The team from the University of British Columbia, in Canada, concluded that liars were betrayed by tiny movements that caused them to raise their eyebrows in surprised expressions and smile slightly.

Innocent people, meanwhile, tended to furrow their brow in genuine “expressions of distress”, they found.

The study, published in the journal Evolution and Human Behaviour, concluded that a person’s lack of control over their facial expressions meant genuine feelings could be differentiated from fake emotion.

Psychologists say most humans can control lower face muscles in order to talk or eat but those in the upper face are difficult to manipulate and can spark involuntary behaviour.

Liars are given away by facial ticks which cause raised eyebrows and hints of a smile, a study has claimed.

So the next time you get the feeling that someone has been shinning you on you may have picked up the raised eyebrow or slight smile without being aware of it.

You can always play the game of watching peoples eyebrows and mouths as they speak and just after they speak as that is usually when the cues are given. Play with this can leave your comments below.

Emotional Abuse Signs [VIDEO]

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

emotional abuse signsSpeaking to you as a person who cares for people and who people come to for advice, I like to remind people the best emotional abuse signs is only one sign so it is easier to recognize… if you are having an almost constant feeling of free, dread or worry.

Here is a nice presentation from YouTube…

Emotional Abuse Signs


I appreciate the video’s attempt to point out many different situations (or signs) to let you know when you are in an emotional abusive situation. And even though the video focused on woman, men can suffer from the same difficult experiences.

There is a simpler and easier way to recognize emotional abuse in your life and it applies to both women and men equally and it makes everything so simply because it moves from signs to sign and it is the first sign that you are a victim of abuse.

Recognizing signs of abuse is a lot easier when you pay attention to how you feel verse what someone else is or is not doing. So the FIRST sign of emotional abuse is being aware of how you feel 50% of the time. If you feel any combination of these emotions fearful, afraid, scared, terrified, dread and deep worry 50% or more of the time then you need to take steps to shift those emotions and learn how not to be a victim.  And when you want help healing from emotional abuse we’ll be there.

And putting yourself in the emotional place where you are no longer seeing emotional abuse signs is extremely powerful and can improve any relationship or move you into a healthier relationship without getting the other person to do a thing.

The best thing to do when you recognize the 1st emotional abuse sign regardless of whether or not you recognize any of the “signs” that were presented in the video is to get help immediately. Why do I say that? Because as you know the sooner you deal with a mole hill the less likely chance it has of turning into a mountain.

So it is OK to make a mountain out of a mole hill when you know where to go to remove the mole hill so you don’t have to climb any mountains and you can learn to live a life full of companionship, tenderness and joy.

Energy Psychology Benefits Over Regular Therapy

FacebookLinkedInPinterestShare

energy psychologyIn the field of holistic health the cutting edge technology is getting faster and faster results.  There are energy psychology benefits over regular therapy, speed is just one of them. Energy psychology is not the fast tool out right now.  Some of the newest quantum cutting edge technologies get almost instant results and while the energy psychologies may not get the instant results they have been popular for the last 18-25 years and provide what, to many, seems like miraculous results.

Energy psychology is the name of a category processes that work on the energy aspect to resolve problems. There are way to many energy psychologies to mention and some of the more well known are EFT, Basic PEAT (called EFT on Steroids), Emotrance, BSFF, FasterEFT,  etc. There are many more and I may have missed your favorite and yet they all have some things in common that set them apart from regular psychotropic medications therapy and traditional talk therapy.

Susan Heitler, Ph.D wrote over on the Psychology Today Blog

Energy Psychology Benefits Over Regular Therapy

At the same time, in observing Dale Peterson’s work I have been repeatedly impressed by three factors that differ from classical psychotherapies:

1. Location of the triggering event.  Contrary to much psychological theory, the trapped emotions that launch long-lasting negative impacts often have taken place outside of the family of origin.  

Brief negative interactions with childhood teachers or peers, and with bosses and work associates in adult life can have far more potent impact than most psychological theory assumes.  At the same time, adult traumas, including war-related trauma, often have earlier roots that compound the triggering incidents in the war situation.

2.  Ability to access subconscious memories unreachable by traditional techniques. Muscle kinesiology plus the Emotion Code of Bradley Nelson (as well as other technqiues like NET) enable laser-like rapidity of access to the specific memory that launched the template for the target symptom.

Often the conscious mind wants nothing to do with painful memories.  To access them, purely talking about memories doesn’t get there.  Muscle testing techniques by  contrast can bypass the screens that limit conscious awareness and zap straight to the subconsciously remembered specific initialing event. 

Sometimes these initial events occurred in pre-verbal years, or even as inherited emotions.  Events that occurred in prior generations, in the fetal months, in infancy or in toddler-hood pose no barriers to access with these techniques. 

3. Ability to totally remove the negative emotional residue.  Treatment to defuse the emotional memory often takes only a few minutes. After treatment, memory of the event remains minus the negative emotional component.

Then when similar situations come up subsequently in the person’s life, the old emotional template no longer is operative.  For example, a sound that resembles the loud throbbing of the helicopter that crashed and killed a soldier’s buddies will, after treatment, just sound like a helicopter without re-arousing panic, anger or a fight impulse. 

What are the downsides of these treatment methods?

Fortunately, unlike the negative side effects I have often seen from psychotropic medications, I have heard of zero downsides to any of the energy therapy interventions beyond that a) clients sometimes feel tired after a session, and b) sometimes the client feels the same symptom or even worse for a day or two until it suddenly clears.

What I have seen time and time again are quite remarkable cures, especially of ptsd, sexual inhibitions, anger issues, anxiety, and depression. 

Read more here…

Dr. Heitler, as do many, still look at energy psychology benefits over regular therapy through the lenses of psychology first and then energy second and the success even though remarkable, can be even better when you look through the lenses of energy first and then psychology. From that perspective psychology looks totally different.
