![]() Anger-Change Your Feelings To Change Your BehaviourDwelling on an emotionally distressing event will make you behave negatively. But feelings can be changed by a simple mental exercise.

It depends on your outlook. What does yoga do that using a gym does not. Gym and yoga work on two opposite physiological principles. The author describes them briefly in this article.
![]() Emotional Expression And HealthEmotional expression and relaxation are interlinked. The author's clinical experiences suggest that the distress of traumatic events is locked up in the body. When allowed to relax, the distress is experienced physically as in depression or anxiety. The article explains the phenomenon. ![]() Why Does Cognitive Therapy Not Work In Every Psychological Condition?Cognitive Therapy is the most researched form of therapy. It has its own limitations. It does not work in those conditions in which a person is traumatized as in abuse. The emotional distress can overwhelm thinking. Cognitive therapy does not work in such conditions. ![]() What Has Stress To Do With Emotions?Emotions when not expressed, create stress in the body. Any stressful event brings up emotional arousal. The two are related. If the body and the mind were to be ‘cleaned off' the emotional loading related to traumatic experiences, we would not experience much stress. As a result, we would not feel emotional in those situations.

This article describes some common attributes.
![]() Alternatives In Mental Health"Health" and "illness" are contrasting terms. They can be used in physical or in mental context. We know that physical exercise done on a regular basis keeps us healthy. Mental exercise also keeps us mentally healthy. Just like after doing physical exercise we need rest, after mental exercise the mind also needs rest. But we hear the term "physical rest" frequently. The term "mental rest" is rarely used. No doubt then that as mental activities have increased with industrialisation, stress has increased. This stress results from our inability to allow our mind to become inactive or relaxed for even a short time. ![]() Depression=Anger+Grief+TraumaThat Depression occurs due to repressed anger is a known phenomenon from Freudian times. But unresolved grief and unresolved traumatic experiences add to the effect as well. The author discusses his findings here.
