This is a terrific tip from Touch For Health to help you when you're stressed, angry, anxious or trouble. Try holding your frontal eminences. These are bumps on your forehead that a great deal of humans hold instinctively when they're trouble.

For those of you who don't do this of course, let me help you locate them. Feel up from the middle of your eyebrows going towards your hairline. Your forehead comes outwards before it curves back in towards the hairline. Hold your forehead at the points where it is furthest out - with regards to 3cms (1. 25 inches) above the middle of each eyebrow.

While you hold these points think with regards to the stressful event. It may be something that has already took place, something that is with regards to to happen, or something you fear may never happen! Gradually you better find that the stress lessens.

You may use it for little things, but you may also use it for more traumatic events too. If the thoughts/images are too overwhelming initially, imagine you’re watching it on a TV - you may always switch it off If becomes too stressful - you're the one in charge. You may watch it in black and white whether or not that feels more comfortable too. Use it to defuse anything that you feel anxious, stressed, angry or fearful with regards to.

You may want to do it assorted times covering different distinct elements of the problem. You may do them one after the other, or at different times, whichever feels best for you.

As you hold the points and think about/imagine the event, you will more than likely start out to feel calmer - you may even find that you start out to feel a little bored thinking with regards to this scenario that previously stressed or angered you such a lot.

Why does it work?

These queer points on the forehead, known as frontal eminences, are reflex points with connections to the central meridian (involved with the brain), the stomach meridian (and your stomach many times churns when you're anxious or angry), and the bladder meridian (trips to the loo/bathroom are many times essential when we're apprehensive).

I recently explained this self-help technique to a business colleague - a keen mountain biker who'd had a severe bike accident at 30 miles an hour and had broken his skull and collar bone. His bones had mended, but he was now most times fearful of the sport he loved.

This is what he wrote to me later:

"I don't recognise in which way to thank you enough for the technique you described to me over the phone the other day, it helped me enormously! "

The following week he sent me this message:

"Your tip worked once again last night - went out (in the pitch black with my Light&Motion 'daylighter' light) and did a great deal of severe single-tracking and downhilling! ! ! I never thought I'd be doing that again - ever! Thank you such a lot! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! It was brilliant! ! ! ! ! ! ! "

It may be hard to believe that something this simple could be efficacious at removing anxiety and stress, but try it and see.
