Game's and how to De-stress using them

For those of you who missed my taking over my sisters Site last month I decided to put up here, what I did on her site when I took it over for the day.


This Blog is brought to you by Online Gamer Richie Of Online Games Your Way

GAMING WOOT YEA!!! - Stress-er or Not?

Ok gaming is my favorite way to de-stress, but you can't de-stress with all games.

Some games can actually add to your stressing, or even parts of some games can stress you out.
Example: World Of Warcraft, great game lots of stuff to do. This game can be very stressful, in many ways such as raiding or PvP. Most mmorpg's (massive multiplayer online role playing games) are like this.

The games you want to de-stress with are known as Casual Games. Games like Bejeweled or Hidden Object games one where the objective is simple. You can find many of these casual games on my game site Online Games Your Way, The Flash Games there are great casual games. There are many types of games there for all types of players.

So Why are some games stress-ers and others not? This is all dependent upon ones own personality. Take me as a example I am Highly competitive, So PvP ( player Vs Player) can be a stress-er for me if I am in the wrong set of mind for it. So If I hop into say a mmorpg and go to PvP I could be stressing myself out more.

How ever If I instead head out to do some simple quests or grinding (its a repetitive way of fighting mobs for loot), often times that relaxes me.

But if I want to truly relax I go Play games with simple goals, Puzzle, Hidden Object and Physics type games are my favorite to relax with.

Puzzle games - These get your mind working on figuring something out distracting it from all the stress-ers you have been under.

Physic games- No you don't need to know math or science for these its just these games are based on that. Often times your figuring out how to get things to something or set up in a way to allow something to get somewhere. Its like a puzzle but more interactive.

Hidden Object games- These games get you to relax because if you do not, you can't find anything on your screen. Besides these ones are fun because sometimes the objects your looking for are strange and funny.

So Remember Gaming can be a great De-Stresser but you have to be careful not to take the game to seriously.

As Always

Manage Stress Better

Identifying stress and being aware of its effect on our lives is not sufficient for reducing its harmful effects. Just as there are many sources of stress, there are many possibilities for its management.

However, all require work in order to be effective. Changing the source of stress and/or changing your reaction to it. So you might be wondering how do you do it?

1. Become aware of your stressors and your emotional and physical reactions.

· Notice your stress and its beginnings. Don't ignore it. Don't gloss over your problems.
· Determine what events stress you out. How much do these events mean to you?
· Determine how your body responds to the stress. Do you become nervous or physically upset? If so, in what specific ways?

2. Recognize what you can change.

· Can you change your stressors by avoiding or eliminating them completely?
· Can you reduce their intensity over time?
· Can you shorten your exposure to stress by taking a break, or leaving the physical premises?
· Can you devote the time and energy necessary to making a change (goal setting, time management techniques, and delayed gratification strategies may be helpful here)?

3. Reduce the intensity of your emotional reactions to stress.
The stress reaction is triggered by your perception of danger and/or fears physical danger or emotional danger, and fears of failure etc.

· Are you viewing your stressors in exaggerated terms and/or taking a difficult situation and making it a disaster?
· Are you expecting to please everyone because I’m telling you that you can’t?
· Are you overreacting and viewing things as absolutely critical and urgent all the time? Do you feel you must always come out the winner in every situation?
· Work at adopting more moderate views; try to see the stress as something you can cope with rather than something that overpowers you.
· Try to temper your excess emotions. Put the situation in perspective. Do not labor on the negative aspects of everything find a positive in them if you can
· Take personal time to evaluate your surroundings clearly
· Take a deep breath when overly stressed and count backwards from 10
· Exercise a little bit or take a walk daily

4. Build your physical reserves.

· Eat well-balanced, nutritious meals.
· Maintain your ideal weight or appearance.
· Avoid nicotine, excessive caffeine, and alcohol.
· Mix leisure with work. Take breaks and get away when you can.
· Get enough sleep. Be as consistent with your sleep schedule as possible.

5. Maintain your emotional reserves.

· Develop some mutually supportive friendships/relationships.
· Pursue realistic goals which are meaningful to you, rather than goals others have for you that you do not share because they won’t succeed.
· Expect some frustrations, failures, and sorrows and let them go.
· Always be kind and gentle with yourself be your own best friend.

What is Optimal Stress ?

There is no single level of stress that is optimal for every person. We are all individuals with unique requirements. As such, what is frustrating to one may be a joy to another.

And even when we agree that a particular event is distressing, we are likely to differ in our physiological and psychological responses to it. That’s just human nature.

The person who loves to solve disputes and moves from job site to job site would be stressed in a job that was stable and routine, whereas the person who thrives under stable conditions would very likely be stressed on a job where duties were highly varied.

Also, our personal stress requirements and the amount which we can tolerate before we become distressed changes with our ages. It has been found that most illnesses are related to unrelieved stress; for example, anxiety disorders, bowel disorders etc.

If you are experiencing stress symptoms, you have gone beyond your optimal stress level; you need to reduce the stress in your life and/or improve your ability to manage it.

Some Stress symptoms May be:
· Hair falling out
· Anxiety attacks
· Headaches
· Fatigue
· Loss of appetite
· Increase of appetite

Always check with your doctor, before assuming its just stress.
