brain waves The Carnal/Egoic Mind Vs The Spiritual Mind

Meditation music is music performed to aid in the practice of meditation. It can have a specific religious content, but also more recently has been associated with modern composers who use meditation techniques in their process of composition, or who compose such music with no particular religious group as a focus.

We all have a carnal, egoic mind so it should be easy to know all about it and understand the truth about it. However, if we are using the carnal, egoic mind as our identity, we are so immersed in it that we cannot see the “forest for the trees.” We become addicted to our own thoughts and the thoughts of others and basically “believe” in these thoughts. But when we seek proof of spiritual things, the egoic mind is unable to comprehend and thus it must form its own perception based on what it can comprehend. Since the egoic mind is only connected to the human body via the brain, it must rely on what it can see, touch, hear, taste, or smell. The egoic mind must “believe” in physical things only; just like it does all of its other thoughts. But often the carnal mind has to somehow seek the spiritual and try to understand it because that is its job, to calculate and categorize things. The result of this is a lot of ideas and physical representations of spirituality, usually portrayed in outward, observable, and touchable rituals accompanied by writings that try to document and convey these carnal concepts of spirituality.

What is usually largely ignored in modern society, education, and government is that we all also have a spiritual consciousness. This is often noticed and described as “the small still voice” from within; somewhere external of the egoic mind. This spiritual “knowing” is also the source of inspiration, music, art, and significant innovations that can benefit human kind. Our spiritual consciousness is outside and above the egoic mind and is who we truly are. It is not the carnal mind and it can observe the carnal mind, making it the superior entity. Conversely, the carnal mind exists for a short time within the human body and cannot observe nor understand spiritual consciousness because spiritual consciousness is not perceivable to the 5 senses. Any “knowing” of spirituality comes out of brief encounters with spiritual consciousness and is recorded by the egoic mind (but not understood). We label these as imaginations, visions, voices, visits from angels, spirits, or ancestors because these are things that the egoic mind can conceptualize.

How do we evolve to the higher state of spiritual consciousness? There are many indications that this state is where all significant human advances originate and that peace and tranquility are the norm. So many of the world religions and philosophies have identified the concept of quieting the carnal mind through prayer, devotions, chants, and meditation as a necessary step toward the spiritual. “The small, still voice” phrase also illustrates the necessity of quieting the carnal mind so that spiritual intelligence can be perceived.

What is actually happening during prayer, devotions, chants and meditations, etc. is the egoic mind is trained on a single concept allowing us to more easily perceive our spiritual selves. The original sin of identifying ourselves with the carnal mind (knowing good and evil) and “thinking” ourselves as gods is the basis of the carnal mind. Its survival is dependent on our consciousness identifying with it so it will fight for our full attention at all times. But it can be bypassed by supplicating it to a mundane task so that the spiritual consciousness can begin to awaken from its slumber and again take control. Obtaining spiritual consciousness is salvation and this is the basic underlying truth to all of our religions. The kingdom of heaven is within each one of us and does not require belief; only knowing through being.

sleep meditation 15 Free Tips To Feel Happy Today

Leave a reply

Gratitude is a very powerful feeling and allows you to humble yourself for a moment. It reminds you of all the positive things you have in your life, whether it is relationships, your experiences, possessions or your passions. Try the following to bring more gratitude into your life:

a) Think of a time when life was good to you, which made you feel incredibly thankful to be alive.

b) Think of a time when life challenged you – What did you learn as a result of this experience?

c) Think of a time in your life when you needed somebody the most and they were there for you.

Even when we experience harsh lessons in life, the act of gratitude helps to ease the pain and be thankful for the present moment.

2. Be Confident

Confidence will get you far in life – from the way you converse with people, to the way you walk down the street. When you feel confident, others see your confident energy. Some techniques you can use are a follows:

a) Stand up straight

b) Recognize your strengths and abilities

c) Keep eye-contact with people

Use convincing statements such as ” I am good enough and I always will be ” rather than “If things work out for me hopefully I will feel better”. Trust yourself!

And don’t forget – Accept compliments gracefully!

3. Raise Your Self-Esteem

Self-esteem is all about knowing and believing in your self-worth. If you think you do not have any self-worth then it is a good idea to start listing all your strengths and abilities as identified in the previous tip, Be Confident.

Stop comparing yourself to others! There will always be people that have more than you or better than you. Instead of feeling bad, feel inspired by them. Make goals towards achieving the things you really want in life (see tip 10. Set Goals) and stop feeling negative because you do not have what you want.

And please please please stop putting yourself down! Now this is a big one – When you put yourself down you are affirming to yourself that you are not good enough. Your brain is very clever and when used in the wrong way, can convince you of the most absurd things. Nobody in the entire world is not good enough. Everybody is good at something! Go back to tip 1: Be Grateful, and realize the world is always on your side, you just have to sit back for a moment to see it.

4. Track Your Thoughts

Tracking your thoughts goes hand-in-hand with the previous tip 3. Raise Your Self-Esteem. This is because, over the course of our lives we have trained our brains to believe in many negative thoughts. So-much-so, these thoughts become incredibly unconscious to us that it then becomes difficult to track them.

If you become anxious often, ask yourself the following questions:

i) What was I thinking directly before feeling anxious?
ii) Is it a negative thought/belief about myself?
iii) Am I judging or comparing myself to others?
iv) Do I often feel lousy in the day when it started off great? Back track your thoughts.

Remember, negative thinking can always be changed. You can easily keep track of your thoughts every time you feel bad about yourself, just think of the last thought you had. When we worry, it tends to stem from a negative thought, so keep track of that. With enough practice you will become proficient in tracking your thoughts and wiping out all negative patterns.

5. Be Mindful

Being mindful allows you to be more focused, it stops your brain from wondering off every two seconds. With enough practice you will have more clarity, be less distracted and even start breathing better. Try the following:

a) How does it feel where you are right this second? Are you comfortable? If so, why are you comfortable? Is it because of the chair you are sitting in, or the temperature of the room?

b) The next time you are in the shower think about how the water feels on your body. Do you feel relaxed or anxious? Why do you feel the way you do?

c) Meditate – Concentrate on nothing but your breathing for a full five minutes and see how you feel (set a timer). It can be difficult at first but the key is to practice. You will notice that you will become less distracted and more focused. The key is to practice this technique over and over.

6. Realize The Grass Is Never Greener

Being preoccupied with the search for another life, a different life, or perhaps a better life alludes us into believing that our life is not really worth living. When in fact, there is at least one person in the world that would love to live it.

Accept reality. Face it. Deal with it. Problems come and go. If you have a persistent problem in your life then its time to start asking yourself:

a) What is making me so unhappy about this situation?

b) What have I done so far to rectify this problem?

c) What can I learn from this problem?

Never be envious of others. Envy is being resentful of others and affirming you are inferior. Be inspired. Look for ways to develop your life, improve it and grow – trust me, you will feel much better along the way.

7. Be You

He happy being you! There is nobody else in the whole wide world that comes close to you. Each of us is unique. We all possess different qualities that make us stand out. What is yours?

a) Do you have great style?

b) Are you a good cook?

c) Are you an optimist?

Go back to tip 1. Be Grateful, and look at what you have in your life already that makes you happy. Appreciate everything you have on your list.

Love yourself.
Feel good about your body – Eat healthy.
Smile Smile Smile – Let those endorphins soar!

Create some style in your life – Be it in the wardrobe department or your home (Try something new).

8. Heal Your Past

You are where you are, never try to heal from something too quickly. Many of us have stored emotions and past traumas that can take time to heal. It takes a lot of courage to walk down memory lane and there will be a lot of tears along the way. Just remember that crying is a very healthy way of releasing stored emotions.

If you can, see a counselor. If not then there are many books you can read that can give you a better understanding of your situation. Please also try the following:

a) Commit to yourself that you no longer wish to be emotionally affected by your past.

b) Write down in detail the incident that happened.

c) Allow yourself to cry if you need to – Write down any trigger words that make you more emotional.

Try to look at the reality of the situation rather than just your perspective e.g. If you were beaten as a child, then whatever compelled your caregiver to beat you was their own level of frustration and lack of control rather than you being a bad child.

What good did you learn as a result of this experience? Are you more compassionate? Do you have the ability to spot a child going through abuse? Do you have to ability to respect others and yourself?

At first it may be difficult healing your past, but once you get over the hurdle you will gain compassion for yourself, a deep wisdom and the gift to help others.

9. Discover Yourself

Awareness is the key to self-discovery. Find out why you are the way you are. Understand who you are as a person. This will give you the freedom to change what you do not like and the opportunity to create the life you want. Try the following:

a) Do not judge yourself – This is a hard one to overcome but boy will you feel better about yourself!

b) Be honest with yourself – This will lead to true awareness. What are your deepest fears?

c) Have you ever felt ashamed of something? If so why?

d) Have you ever been dishonest? Why? (remember do not judge yourself) What was the reality of your situation?

e) What type of people do you like to spend your time with? Why?

f) Are you happy in your current relationship? Who is your ideal partner? Why?

10. Set Goals

If you want to start creating the life you really want, then goal-setting is your ‘life plan’ for the future.

All successful business executives and athletes set goals. It provides motivation and it organizes time and resources so that you can make the most out of life.

a) Start by setting life-time goals – Be it Financial, Career, Education, Family, Exercise.
Then set smaller goals – Start with a Five-year plan, then a One-year plan, then a Six-month plan, until eventually you create a One-month plan.

b) Ensure they are SMART – Specific (significant), Measurable (meaningful), Attainable (action-oriented), Relevant (rewarding), Timed (trackable).

c) Stay the course – Review your goals on a monthly basis and check off anything that is completed. Modify your goals to reflect your changing priorities.

11. Allow Yourself To Dream – Dream Big!

Dreaming big is not about walking with your head in the clouds, it is about having a passion and making it your purpose to achieve it. Get into the habit of dreaming big, because it will adjust and maneuver your mind-set to get you on the right track.

A few reasons why it is good to dream:

a) It will make you feel good.

b) You will connect to your inner-self.

c) They will eventually come true.

d) You will set higher standards for yourself – This is good for personal growth.

e) You will achieve more.

12. Get A Hobby

Sometimes coming home from work, having dinner then watching a little bit of TV can get really boring. We need to nurture the soul. We need something that brings a sense of inner-fulfillment. And remember, TV is not a hobby, please see tip 14. Stop Watching TV.

Try some of the following:

a) Learn a new skill – Maybe a musical instrument or knitting.

b) Start a blog about something you are passionate about.

c) Get in touch with nature – Take long walks or take up gardening.

d) Create a sports team

13. Make Yourself Happy First

As selfish as this may sound, it is quite the opposite. If you are happy within yourself, others will feed off your happiness. People feel good being around people that feel good about themselves.

a) Don’t sacrifice too much for somebody else – If you have passions in life then it is your God-given right to fulfill them.

b) Don’t give what you do not have – Be it Love or Financial.

c) Put on your oxygen mask first – There is a reason for this.

d) Only give to charity if it feels good in your heart.

14. Stop Watching TV!

TV is bad for you! You heard it here first.

Seriously folks, try to limit TV to the most minimal possible. And try not to watch TV right before bed time, especially thrillers, horrors or action movies. You will find that your subconscious will stay in a disturbed dream sequence all night if you watch any of these type of movies or TV shows.

Watching TV puts you in Alpha state – This state is crucial for optimized learning, so you do not want to learn anything negative. You also switch off your creative brain. When you read or converse with people or play sports, your brain uses its imagination. It cannot use its imagination when watching TV, you are watching somebody else’s imagination. Therefore the creative part of your brain shuts down.

By cutting out TV you will find that:

a) You will have more time for hobbies and recreational activities.

b) You will read more – Online or offline.

c) You will socialize more.

d) You will start thinking more positively – Because there is a lot of negativity on TV.

e) You will become more selective of what you do watch going forward.

15. Always Be Optimistic

You have nothing to lose by being optimistic. Remember the glass is always half-full!
Being an optimist allows you to be grateful for what you have and to expect the best. And, if and when things become a little difficult then they are easily forgotten when you overcome them.

Remember:

a) The world is always on your side – If you believe the world is on your side then you are correct, if you believe the world is against you then you are correct.

b) The past does not equal the future – The past is just a story, the future is yet to be created.
Change negative beliefs into positive ones – Life is too short to think negatively.
Prepare for the best, hope for the best – Expect your life to be great and it will.

He casually wrote down on a napkin the formula to make millions of dollars per film even if the movie didn’t make any money in the box office. I ate it up while eating dinner at his restaurant on Vine in Hollywood. He owned many restaurants all over the world. He told me to order away, so I requested off the menu some “lightly” seared toro, then the chef brought out a huge plate. I ate them all up too, knowing that a decent sushi restaurant would charge $15 per piece. I probably ate about $ 300 worth, and I never touched toro again for a while. Then we went back to his mansion up in Hollywood Hills where he surprised me with a new pair of designer pumps. These weren’t just designer, but a personal gift from a very famous designer. You couldn’t even buy them just yet. Can you see how he rocked my world in all aspects? Intellectually, palatably, and most importantly, fashionably!! (And of course in the bedroom too!)

Worldly, materialistic things weren’t the only thing we had in common, or rather what I liked him about him. We connected on a deeper level too you know.. We would meditate together in his Buddha-themed garden listening to the lounge music produced by his company. He was a family man as well. I really liked his mother who often visited the house just to hang. She probably thought I wasn’t suitable for him because of our age difference, but I thought she was slowly warming up to me. All of his quirks like having to smoke a joint before falling asleep, not being able to stand my wet hair in bed… were becoming more endearing, uh-oh, I was falling in love!

My life was truly a bed of roses. One evening, I was getting pampered and getting ready for an event at his home spa, a separate quarter from the main house. That’s exactly when I heard the bad news that shook me out of my relaxed mode. His production company got sued by a foreign bank for various legal stuff. I knew it was an extremely serious matter for him, and he too started to act differently. I started to see different sides of him that raised many red flags. Uh-oh for the second time. Too many uh-oh’s are never good.

Going through hard times, bumps, cracks in a relationship is a good litmus test to see if the relationship can be a long, enduring one. My A-lister was losing this battle… but will he lose the war, aka me? And that’s exactly when my ex reached out to me, uh-oh! Will it be the grand gesture from my ex I was subconsciously waiting and hoping for?

relaxing music How to Make Important Life Changes

Leave a reply

So, what’s holding you back?

Perhaps it’s procrastination, self-sabotage or fear of the unknown. Or maybe you start initiating change, but quickly fall back into an existing comfort zone. This “easy route” often leads to complacency and stagnation.

How can you make lasting changes to enrich your life?

Here are a few thoughts that I’ve picked up through coaching over the years:

Slow Down – If you’re stressed out or operating at full steam all the time, it’s incredibly difficult to make any real, lasting change in any part of your life. So, your first step is to slow down and free up the mental and emotional space that’s needed. Decades of research point to the benefit of reflective activities that quiet fear, doubt and worry and allow you to be more energized, engaged and in the moment. For example, try carving out 10 minutes twice a day for a daily renewal ritual such as meditation, yoga, prayer, writing, listening to music, walking, painting, knitting, etc. It doesn’t matter what you do as long as it allows you to truly slow down, create space, and renew your energy – all necessary ingredients for change.

Draft a Vision – Before you spend the time and energy that’s required to make a big change, take a step back and focus on what’s really important to you. When the time feels right, write out a couple of paragraphs about where you want to be with your goals one year from now. For example, how will success with your goals impact your life and how you show up in the world?

Identify Your Strengths – In our culture, there’s a lot of focus on shortcomings and weaknesses which can make us feel powerless. Instead, what if you empowered yourself by focusing on the strengths that are inherent in you? If you determine your core strengths and leverage them, you’ll be more successful in achieving your vision and more fulfilled in the process. For example, if you want to get into a new career and one of your strengths is connecting with others, it will serve you well to attend networking events and to conduct informational interviews. Since you excel at these types of activities and they come naturally to you, chances are you will not only succeed but also enjoy the process.

Craft a Plan – Once you know your strengths and have a clear vision, break your goal into small, achievable action steps that are big enough to give you a sense of progress yet small enough to be realistic. If you’re a high-achiever, you may try to take on everything all at once, which can set you up for failure. Instead, set yourself up for success by starting with small action steps and slowly working towards your goal.

Create Accountability – On average, it takes about 28 days to create a new habit. For example, if you’re trying to create a healthier lifestyle by eating right and exercising more, it will take about a month for these actions to become routine. Change is often one step forward and two steps back and you’ll inevitably face challenges and set-backs along the way. You’ll need support while you make major changes in your life and work towards your vision. Don’t try to do it all by yourself. Talk to your friends, colleagues or coach about your plans and ask them to help hold you accountable. Other people will help you stay motivated, accountable and on track and when you accomplish your goals, you’ll have others with which to celebrate.

Now that you have a rough outline of how to effect personal change, I encourage you to work through your plan and customize it in a way that serves you.

Ready, set, go. You can do it.

Brainwave Entrainment Why Learning Hypnosis is a Waste of Time

Leave a reply

Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain’s ‘frequency following’ response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.
binaural beats isochronic tones | transcendental meditation technique
One very famous hypnotist, one whose name I shall not mention recently said a very shocking and controversial statement. Hypnosis doesn’t work at all. He mentions that the media has painted a very pretty picture of hypnosis, through movies and pulp fictions combined with a healthy dose of urban myth – making people believe that it is a one stop solution for everyone’s problems, that a good hypnosis can reach down into the mind, control it and pull out all the bad things in the subject.

While he did say that no one can hypnotise another, the process of hypnotism is really the subject hypnotising themselves and placing themselves in a suggestible frame of mind. What this means that all hypnosis can really do is create a general frame of mind where messages can be inserted into the consciousness of the subject. The problem that many have with this is that for the longest time, there was no measurable return, the effects of hypnotism were general at best and a large population of people who actually did undergo hypnotherapy reported modest gains – and some even when back to their bad habits after a while.

The disclaimer is always that ‘it doesn’t work for everyone’ and if that is the case, why bother with it at all when you are going into something that is doubtful in the first place? No one can truly say that the messages being transplanted directly into the mind during the sessions have any effect at all and that psychologists have actually said that it is the mental state of the person that does all the work. They want to believe that the hypnotism works and they want to believe that the hypnotist has the power – and thus you get self suggestion at its best. It may work for a few days depending on the will power of the person, but it eventually fades away.

Furthermore, there is the dark side of hypnosis when you are left in a vulnerable state for the unscrupulous to pick your mind of valuable information or leave messages inside that makes you do things you would not normally do. But I digress. Hypnosis is a blunt tool especially in the face of discoveries like brain frequency patterns, brainwave entrainment, biofeedback and magnetic field induction as methods that are use to control and reprogram the subconscious, as well as induce states of super thinking and super learning (and healing) within the brain.

These new technologies are backed by close to 200 years of medical and scientific research and its applications reach as high as treating pain of cancer, mental disorders and even mental degradation. It is also used on children to treat AD/ADHD and other forms of disorders like autism.

Only recently has the technology of brainwave entrainment repackaged into a for that is consumer friendly but loses none of the exact science that has made it so popular. It is measurable, tangible and researchable while hypnosis is a vagary of lore – something of a blunt instrument when it comes to personal development. This is why learning hypnosis is a waste of time.
Brainwave entrainment is a method to stimulate the brain into entering a specific state by using a pulsing sound, light, or electromagnetic field. The pulses elicit the brain? ?requency following?response, encouraging the brainwaves to align to the frequency of a given beat.

This ?requency following?response of brainwave entrainment can be seen in action with those prone to epilepsy. If a strobe flashes at their seizure frequency, the brain will ?ntrain?to the flashing light, resulting in a seizure.

On the positive side, this same mechanism is commonly used to induce many brainwave states; such as a trance, enhanced focus, relaxation, meditation or sleep induction. The brainwave entrainment effectively pushes the entire brain into a certain state.

Brainwave entrainment works for almost everyone. It is a great way to lead your mind into states that you might usually have difficulty reaching, allowing you to experience what those states feel like.

THE HYPE
There is a lot of marketing hype around brainwave entrainment. It is sold with promises of increasing IQ, promoting weight loss, ?ind-tripping? enhancing creativity, concentration, inducing spiritual states and more.

While these claims are not entirely true, they are not altogether false either. In practice, the claims are based on an overly-simplistic view of how the brain and the brainwaves function.
THE RUB
People are very seldom deficient in a certain brainwave type in all areas of their brain. Usually the distribution is much spottier, with an excess in one area and a deficiency in another.

We are all different, especially when it comes to the distribution of our brainwaves. Boosting a certain brainwave state may be beneficial for one person, and emotionally uncomfortable for another. Without knowing each person? starting position, entrainment can be rather ?it and miss?

If brainwave entrainment leaves you with unwanted side-effects (see below) or discomfort, you?e probably encouraging a range of brainwaves that are already excessive in some area of your brain. The way around this is to get a brain map to see what your brain? strengths and weaknesses are, and see what (if any) brainwaves could use some encouragement.

Brainwave Entrainment How Guided Brain Wave Meditation Can Benefit Students

Leave a reply

Research shows that the benefits are extremely vast and versatile, and these benefits are useful for anyone trying to achieve better mental health and higher self-esteem.

How can brain wave meditation have any effect on students?

The answer will come soon, but now I want to address the benefits of brain wave meditation in a general sense.

The most common use for meditation is to completely relax and rid the mind of all worries.

Meditation clears our thoughts of any problems and stresses that we may be facing in our lives.

It is a great time to escape from the everyday world and focus on yourself and positive thinking.

Before I move on, I want to address a common belief about meditation.

The common belief is that you must be religious or spiritual in order to begin meditation. This is simply untrue!

Meditation is for every one. Don’t let this silly misconception stop you from pursuing meditation.

Religious people do seem to be more into meditation than your every day average person, but you definitely do not have to be religious to meditate.

Brain wave meditation can help anyone and everyone, which is the reason it is so effective.

Now it’s time to discuss the benefits of brain wave meditation in relation to students.

The average college and high school student goes through many rough times during any given school year, especially around exam times.

The high levels of stress and anxiety they experience can cause many poor living habits such as an unhealthy diet, inadequate amounts of sleep, and after a while, a large decrease in the ability to perform in the classroom.

For students attempting to achieve academic excellence, this can be devastating.

The good news is, brain wave meditation can be the answer to your problems.

Another benefit that students can reap from brain wave meditation is the increased ability of your brain to function after meditation.

Research has shown that students who meditate do better on tests than students who don’t.

Why is this?

Meditation can improve concentration, self-esteem, and memory; all of which can be vital in improving performance in the classroom.

Awesome, right?

These qualities you can achieve from meditating have no limit.

Unfortunately, students don’t reap these benefits because they either don’t know how to meditate or they feel that there is no time.

One of the best qualities of brain wave meditation is that it is not time-consuming and it is very simple to do!

Here is a simple step-by-step way to meditate if you are a beginner. It is best to meditate first thing in the morning. Find a comfortable place to sit, eliminate outside distractions (other than brain wave meditation music, which I will address at the end of the article), and slowly count in descending order from fifty down to one. Each number is a deep breath in through the nose, and out through the mouth. During this time, simply focus on your breathing and clear your mind.

It’s that simple.

The feeling after meditation is indescribable. You feel relaxed and re-energized, and your mind will be fresher than ever.

Begin your journey into brain wave meditation today, especially if you are a student looking to improve classroom performance. I wish you all well!

Leave a reply

Some enjoyable ways to approach stress management include techniques such as meditation, music, dancing, taking aerobic exercise and seeking social support. All of these lead to the increased sense of well-being that is especially important when dealing with unemployment.

Simply experimenting with something you have never tried before can not only alleviate stress but also lead to the sense of achievement necessary to boost self-esteem.

In order to cope effectively with unemployment stress you have to become your own best friend. You need to be supportive, constructive and appreciative of yourself and your strengths. Make a list of all of your personal skills and resources and then think about situations in your life that you have resolved by utilizing them.

Think about the times that you have gained positive feedback and about the achievements that make you proudest. Also think about the things that you enjoy doing most and recall those times, considering ways you can replicate them.

All of your skills, abilities, qualities, attitudes and knowledge add up to your assets. How can you capitalize on these assets to take yourself forward to new employment?

Now think about your key external resources – those people, places and things that can be included as part of your support system right now. How can you utilize or develop these resources to help you cope with the stress of being unemployed?

Another excellent stress management technique when out of work is to ask productive questions. You could, for example, ask yourself what is good about unemployment. It could mean that you now have the opportunity to spend more time with family and friends, to study or to pursue other interests. Even thinking about the bad side of unemployment can be a positive experience when it comes to tackling the associated stress.

Some aspects of the situation may be out of your control but there are always things that you can do to turn around the negatives. Rather than feeling lonely, for example, you could think about the steps you can take to create a daily structure which involves interacting with your peer group. Or you could find situations in your daily life where you could apply your professional skills by, for example, volunteering or donating your time to charitable enterprises.

It is important to examine your core beliefs when coping with unemployment stress as these drive so many of our thoughts and actions. You need to consider how you interpret your situation and if your thoughts are realistic, compassionate and balanced.

Ask yourself if you’re taking all your experience into account, whether you have considered all possibilities and if you have all of the information that you need. If you shared your core beliefs with someone who cares about you, do you think they would accept your interpretations or would they offer an alternative point of view?

We can only cope with stress effectively when we are responding to reality rather than some imagined negative scenario. Keeping the focus on reality also stops us obsessing over negative self talk that is both stressful and unhelpful.

Rather than asking yourself: ‘What is wrong with me?’ think about the value you have offer a potential employer. Instead of wondering when your situation will ever end ask yourself what small step you can take right now to help yourself feel better.

Approach each day in this positive manner and you will find coping with unemployment stress far easier which, in turn, will put you in a much better position to find a new job.
