Stress brought me here
Me too my stess makes me angry at everything
I'm fighting against stress by creating my own ASMR/relaxing ambience youtube channel. Used to have trouble sleeping for years, but now I'm healed.
I was shocked the moment I found out my bf been using my head all thanks to _GEKO_HACKS ON INSTA for revealing the truth to me.
Thanks for the vid. Another good source is the book "30 Days to Reduce Stress" by Harper Daniels.
Same. I’ve been unable to get out of bed due to physical consequences related to stress. I’ve had diarrhoea, dizzy spells, severe tachycardia, nausea, vomiting and head and body aches
What I’ve learned is living in todays day getting a job in the city your gonna have alot of stress but if you live out in the farms and grow your own food and make everything yourself you won’t have nearly as much stress. I feel like the perfect balance is finding a mixture of the two. Meaning don’t just buy everything, make some things too so your not spending as much money though you would be working harder and spending more time I feel like it would be worth it
"if you live out in the farms and grow your own food and make everything yourself you won’t have nearly as much stress"
you clearly never lived in a farm
All about mindset
@@_justnick you might not be cut out for farming
"Out of my distress I called on the Lord; the Lord answered me and set me free. The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" Psalms.
Cast all anxieties onto the Lord, and make it his burden.
10:26 is where he starts how to deal with stress... :)
As a student currently doing this in class, thank you
Thank you alot
Love you❤
@@shubhamyt1288 Thanks
stress is my middle name and anxiety is my last name
whats your first?

then wtf is payam yazdi
Im stressed about sleep
We all just need to collectively move slower. If we all do it than they cant fire all of us. Whenever they try to force you to work faster and do more slow down.
Stress is such a health killer. That soul-body-mind connection is so important.
Best solution to stress is to change the toxic work culture rampant in our society so that people are able to do even the bare minimum to care for themselves. I know it doesn't create immediate and enormous profit but just maybe there is more to life than maximizing profit and productivity.
Stress is killing my memory and focus
What is the last solution of stress?
I forgot because of all this stress.
@@This_or_Thatx1 be close to allah creator, workout stay healthy,
The biggest problem with relaxing, going at your own pace, is that other people...usually when they see you take offense of it. If people'd just stop...before the hate on a person, they'd see that that's what THEY nerd to be doing.
So many people could use this advice.
Almost gave up on this talk. But info at 12:51 made it worth my while.
I really liked this video because he went into detail about how your body reacts to the onset of stress and he also gave helpful information on how you can reduce the stress. I love that saying at the end: you either deal with stress or it deals with you.
For anyone who is feeling blue, tired, apathetic, or overwhelmed: just imagine the dog from the “happiness noise dog meme”. :) I love you.
Thank You
But I dont know what meme you are talking about lol :)
pfft thanks
Rational thinking... stressing just makes you clouded.. find the solution and start making it happen. Easy idea, but hard to apply.
Prioritize your life.
At times because of stress I go into shutdown now. Sometimes I can’t talk, think, or even move. It’s a lonely place but freeze sure is peaceful.
:'( i hope you will find happiness in life, get out from that hardship you are facing right now, and have more peace of mind.
the only one who can change our stressful situations is us... no one else would do it for us... we gotta stick to ourselves and fight for our stressless happiness
It is ok, if you do not feel energetic. It is ok, to be upset. Just know this; you are doing the best you can. You are a superstar! Take good care of yourself.
Yeah, reducing stress and being healthy is really cool, but there are people who wake up at 5 AM, come home at 18 PM and have to take care of their kids. Others only come home at 22 PM because they need two jobs to pay their bills. Exercise? 8h sleep? No caffeine? It's not their fault for living in a world like this.
you are on a treadmill, but you could choose to step out. Yr life only lasts an average 25.000 days and 5000 are spend sleeping. Are you going to waiste them by following the industrial consumeristic bureaucratic model where you are enslaved from birth till death
@@SuperLammens How exactly? The stresses that @carbon waste brings up are completely valid and normal on this day and age. If people dont work like this, they do not even have the means to survive. ergo, stress
Yea it is our fault
@@SuperLammens have you ever lived in your own? And had to pay bills. Or better yet provide for someone else? It's not as simple as you make it out to be bro. Different places in the world have different problems
Maybe not have all the kids?? Just saying..we do have choices in life and our decisions matter.
I agree. I know that I battle back and forth with the thoughts that I’m to busy and then thoughts of what bad things would happen if I’m not busy. Crazy
Whoa...That exercise was totally rad. I feel a bit better than I did before breathing, feeling, and thinking.
I hacked my boyfriend's social with _GEKO_HACKS ON !NSTAGRAM just to clear my suspicion lol
If you like that sort of thing you could give Headspace a try. They have an app (nice) but if you have Netflix they now also have a Headspace series on it with short episodes to give you some background and a taste of excercises like this. Hope you enjoy it!
He makes a lot of sense and I found just listening to him was relaxing me!
jimbob jones Because you now see that someone is able to verbalize how you feel! Greatest feeling ever!!!!!
For those who are reading - take good care of yourself. You are not alone. You are doing great! You are enough. Tnx to my friend from the Voicely app who has been telling me the same so many times. It helps me a lot when I feel stressed.
Awesome, very helpful. Thanks much. 👏
As he said, social media makes us stressful, and negativity in comments prove this statement. Keep calm, please? If you don't find it helpful, it means that you give up on fighting this stress. For some listeners like me this is the best explanation on how stress makes everything worse and how to not let this stress fight back. Or just stop negative comments! Thanks 🧘♀️
Great message. One thing he doesn't mention is that it is hard work. Most people nowadays want everything NOW! Me too. But it takes weeks and months to get this to make a difference to your life. I know people who think mindfulness is rubbish cos "I tried it once." ONCE? You need to work harder than that!
So the negative comments are either a) Impatient Quick Fix people or b) Someone please listen to my opinion.
I found this clip helpful.
@@Timpriestley It is indeed. Last year is a great example of fighting stressful situation all over the world.
This was an absolutely fantastic talk on stress. I shared it to my Facebook personal and business pages. Thank you 👍🏽
Thijs, je presentatie is superbelangrijk en vooral het gedeelte met de ademhaling vond ik zeer nuttig, meestal doen anderen er een mooi muziekje bij en dat voegt eigelijk niets toe. Hypertension of hoge bloeddruk is één van de voornaamste aandoeningen in het westen waarvoor doktors graag pillen voor schrijven en die helaas ook niet naar de kern van de zaak gaan. Dat is de prijs die ieder van ons betaald voor het industriële systeem waarin we van geboorte tot dood(voortijdig vaak) in geboren zijn. Gaan de 99.99 % de controle over hun leven terug nemen en zorgen dat productie is voor de mensen en niet mensen voor de productie. Groeten
Excellent presentation exactly what I needed
Be modest, set reasonable standards, and know both your limitations and those of others. When you do this, you will reduce stress all around and even encourage greater success. Also, keep a sense of humor. When you laugh-even when something goes wrong-you relieve tension and brighten your mood.

Awesome Presentation Thank You so much ..! Going to use your insight on myself and a presentation I need to prepare for MEN and stress ....x x
Very insightful, a must-watch.
I needed this. Thank you.
Thank you
An excellet psychologist with wonderful experiments.
You either deal with stress or stress deals with you
Me stressing about stress dealing with me
Thanks for the vid. Another good source is the book "30 Days to Reduce Stress" by Harper Daniels.
This video really help me out
Stress brought me here, finding comfort in videos and talks on how to deal with stress. My stress comes from my job, although it’s just a temporary phase, I can’t help but feel overwhelmed and stressed to the extent I don’t have an appetite during work hours, can’t bear to leave my laptop and feel like I need to complete my work fast as I know there will be more work piling up sooner or later.. due to the stress I have lost weight. Hope I find a way to reduce this stress soon
How did you cope then, in the longer run?
Great insights, tanks!
What a good presentation about Stress. Short but very informative. Stress does a lot of harm to the 🧠 mind and also the physical body. 🍽 healthy, good sleep 🛏 with a relaxing music 🎧 is also an answer to a stress free life...
Thank you for the video
I Lovee Ted Talk
I can never relax and always worrying and thinking about failures and future. I always have a burden. Take a break. Have a daily task
He is right.
I love this guy ❤️🤌
I feel stressed from a new job i just took and it’s overwhelming
Hang in there. You got this.
the talk starts at 10:30
Thanks
Thank u
Thank you
Thanks
nice talk !
I find on top of my own stress I absorb the stress of other people. It's become chronic. What I've been focusing on is I can't control the behavior of other people but I can control how I react to them. I meditate more. I no longer watch the news. I fake it till I make it.
Learn to keep negative people at bay...if they call you, do not answer their calls, on the job, stay clear of them, if the job is too stressful, find a better job...
I was really surprised about some of the information I found out in the video. I didn’t realize the drastic physical effects that stress has on the body. I do notice that I tend to get sick when I am stressed out, so when the video confirmed that the immune system struggles when it is out under drastic stress. It also scares me that it had also been linked to cancer, and other health risks like that. I also realized that making lists and having them never end can also be a stress causer rather than a stress reliever. It also helps to know that it isn’t just me feeling all the symptoms. Knowing that this is common with everyone makes it easier to deal with.
Some of the things that stress me out most in life are my future and school. I get really worried about how my future will play out, and I am concerned that I will end up being unhappy in my future life. It effects me a lot because it makes me stay up at night, and it prevents me from having fun now because I am worried about where I will end up. I also stress a lot about school, because it has been drilled into my brain from a young age that I need to be my absolute best all the time. It really affects me because I feel like I have a never ending pressure on me to do well. Normally I cope by doing all my work at once then I can feel a little better when my checklist is empty.
aight bro which teacher made you write this
@@walter8581 lmao I was actually writing a paper, but I typed it here and emailed it to myself. Lmao
@@graceboo3124 can I copy? 😆
Judging by that graph. A lot of men aren't being honest because the stress we deal with we bottle up because it's societies standards tells us to mask it.
I love how you can just hear people cough in the background every few minutes
Very good lecture very helpful
This video was really good learned a lot

Nice vídeo, peace everybody ♥️🙏
Read the free PDF on the net, "Stress R Us", for the whole story. This presentation is simplistic to the point of "just silly".

Am I the only one who just found out that FOMO is a acronym for FEAR OF MISSING OUT
Yes
Are you 80 lol wtf XD
Thank u so much sir love u✨🤍
Stress and anxiety caused me to have all my masticatory muscles to be inflamed! its messed up! COVID!
Hmm. I’m so confused. It’s evident having faith over fears and choosing not to be stressed will inevitably lead you to a more positive out look on life and you will be happier. Sometimes this just isn’t a choice for me.. even if I consciously say it out loud. The stress will overcome me.
I'm stressed out too because people enjoy making me stressed out, if I die early it's because I was just too stressed out but I will be with Jesus
3 minutes and I am stressed waiting for him to say something pertinent .. I'm out of here
Did you give it another chance?
15 minutes in and he's still got nothing much to say. I wish I'd switched off at 3 minutes 😜
Read "Stress R Us" on the net. Merry Christmas!
Yeah, I think I have blown my gasket
If you want relaxing music this is the place
I'm just stressful and can not stand more for what I'm doing daily. By listening what he presented, I found that he can treat me by the way but it seems that the audiences might do not interesting in what he was presenting cause they are lack of reactions on what he asked.
Watching this because I feel very stress. I am looking a possible way that I may get free from it
observe yourself and find out what causes stress
@@rajeev6126people treating me with hate
I'm so stressed out and I'm always on the verge of having a mental breakdown.. I'm just a kid, what's wrong with me? People my age are busy making tik toks or playing outside (I dont use tik tok though) while I'm in my room trying to get the buttload of school assignments done while my parents keep inviting people over and then complain about them after they leave, and while trying to stay motivated to do the huge load of assignments when I want to do my hobbies that I barely attend to instead because of school and stuff.. Plus I'm in my 3rd year of band class and playing my instrument just got boring. And it's hard. I don't like it. But there is no way I can turn back now, my parents paid so much money for it and if I tell them I don't like it, they will be furious. I'm so tired and I don't know if I should sleep, or play my loud instrument to turn in the band assignments I have due before my grade drops to an F. I feel like crying but I can't. Like I physically cannot, nothing is happening. I don't know what to do 😬
Hey man, I just wanna tell you I feel exactly like you and I decided to just let go of everything that sounded comfortable and I'm actually trying to figure out who I am, not saying you should do the same, but just wanted to let you know you aren't alone in this world
My 13-year-old grandson is dealing with a lot of the same and his mother is trying to find a mental health counselor for him. Please talk to your parents and ask for help. Maybe start by seeing a pediatrician. Prayers and virtual hugs to you! 👩🦳❤😊

Stress can't be stopped
Let them go
I struggle not to be a mean leader but these people are pushing my last patience. I can't concentrate I spend my time being angry because my mother was always like that
I find him exceedingly attractive.
this is TED not Tinder
@@SuperLammens pity
wim lammens took the words straight out of my mouth Lololol
He is attractive! Love the accent as well..
When it's a woman presenting the comments sections are full of critiques on her looks. Turnabout is fair play.
I know exactly what he's talking about
is not working still
I try not to become and alcholic but people make me want to drink

Please Please lock your cars quietly. We can hear it from behind the walls of the building you park next to. Please use Light Flash Only Thank You.
Thijs Launspach, misschien een idee om eens te praten met Gerard Feller en Inge Bosch. Kennis en ervaringen uitwisselen. Zal je boodschap nog sterker maken.
looks like stress' winning.

thanks for that
But how you mediate while walking??🤔🤔
@@jasmeekhanal1337 meditation is not just about sitting calmly and not thinking , meditation broadly means being aware , being aware of thoughts or surroundings or your breath , just be conscious and become aware . So by walking and being aware of that place in the distant is also a form of meditation. Good day
