Relaxation and Positive Psychology

Positive Psychology looks at what makes people authentically happy. Authentic happiness is a measure of the overall happiness of a person. We all fluctuate in mood. We may be happy a lot of the time, sad some of the time. That is fine. What is important is the general level of happiness. How happy are you normally? How good do you feel about your life? Do you consider yourself a positive person?

If you are suffering form chronic stress then it is probably impossible to be happy.

To learn to relax is the foundation of authentic happiness. If you are relaxed about life, then it is much easier to experience happiness.

 

Wouldn't it be great to relax anytime you want to?

How often do you feel tense and stressed? You may be facing a particularly stressful event in your life such as moving house, starting a new job, sitting an important exam, preparing for an important interview... If you know how to relax then the stress associated with these events can be greatly reduced.

Are you one of those people who think that you must always be doing things - whether at work or in the home? Did you know that taking regular breaks actually results in getting more things done?

Relaxation is not a luxury - it is essential for our mental and physical well-being.

Constant long-term stress causes immune system to be suppressed and illness can result. If you are elderly or all ready sick then the effect of long term stress can be dangerous. Stress related conditions include:

* depression
* diabetes
* hair loss
* heart disease
* hyperthyroidism
* obesity
* obsessive-compulsive or anxiety disorder
* sexual dysfunction
* tooth and gum disease
* ulcers
* cancer (though this has not been proven yet)

Learning to relax combats long term stress and therefore can have a beneficial healing effect on the body as well as the mind.
