quickly overcome stress and anxiety with neurofeedback Study: People can quickly overcome stress and anxiety with neurofeedback

Just one or two neurofeedback sessions can change the activity in the brain and help people overcome fear, stress, and anxiety. In this test, people were able to quiet the activity that occurred in the amygdala (the brain region that deals with processing fear and similar emotions) after receiving simple auditory or visual hints that corresponded to the activity level there. The difference with other neurofeedback therapies is that in this case people were given clues which parts of their brain were active and that enabled them to faster reduce the amount of activity in that particular region.

entitlement leads to chronic disappointment A new study suggests that entitlement leads to chronic disappointment

Spoiling children doesn’t help them. It leads to exaggerated feelings of deservingness and superiority. Such entitlement may lead to chronic disappointment, and can throw people into a “perpetual loop of distress,” according to a new study. People with high levels of entitlement consistently fall victim to a three-part cycle: First, they don’t always get everything they think they deserve, leaving them constantly vulnerable to unmet expectations. Those unmet expectations are then perceived as injustices, leading to volatile emotions like anger and sadness. Finally, to justify those emotions, entitled people reassure themselves of their own specialness. entitlement leads to chronic disappointment This helps them feel better temporarily, but ultimately starts the process all over again.

The results of the study support the belief among meditators that it helps them to become more aware of their internal bodily process.    READ MORE

Stress can override benefits of healthy eating Stress can override benefits of healthy eating

We know that eating well is good for our health. However, new research shows that stress can override the benefits of making better food choices. To evaluate the interactions between diet and stress, researchers recruited 58 women who completed surveys to assess the kinds of stress they were experiencing. The women were given two different types of meals to eat. One meal was high in saturated fat, the type of fat linked to cardiovascular disease. The other meal was high in a plant-based oil, which is considered more healthful. When women were not stressed, and they got the healthier meal, their inflammatory responses were lower than when they had the high saturated fat meal. That was expected. But here’s the remarkable part: If a woman was stressed on a day when she got the healthy meal, she looked like she was eating the saturated fat meal in terms of her inflammation responses.   READ MORE
