How to Deal with Anxiety Naturally

by

Christian Singles

The current figure of people suffering from anxiety is very alarming these days. There are approximately 10 million people in United States alone who have anxiety disorders such as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, phobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and separation anxiety disorder.

The most common anxiety disorder is the panic disorder. Panic disorder is the sudden feeling of extreme fear and nervousness for no apparent reason. Panic disorder is manifested by racing heartbeats, chest pains, excessive sweating, trembling, numbness or tingling in hands, arms, fingers and legs, breathing difficulties, dizziness, feeling of loss of control and inability to concentrate. Panic disorder may last for several minutes and reach its peak within 10 minutes however some of its symptoms may last for a longer time. Many people who experience their first panic attacks may believe that they are suffering from heart attack because of these symptoms.

This is the reason why it is suggested to consult your physician or doctor when you experience the mentioned symptoms to avoid complications of chronic anxiety.  Anxiety symptoms may start during childhood years and early adulthood and when taken for granted and no prevention is done can make it worse overtime.

Many anxiety patients may turn to medications immediately to treat their anxiety. However, this is not the recommended and safest way to treat anxiety for anti-anxiety drugs such as Benzodiazepines (Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, and Ativan) have side effects and the feeling of relief the patients can feel are just temporary. It is always best to take the natural remedies for any diseases first and then take prescription drugs as your last resort when the natural way seems to not work on you.

The following are some of the natural remedies and habits you can try to help you get rid your anxiety:

  • Voice out your problems or the things that make you worry. Talk to your family, to your friends, to someone you trust. Hiding your worries and fears just heighten what you feel and can also interrupt your sleeping patterns which can make you feel stress and then trigger anxiety attacks.
  • Get physical. Regular body and mind exercise can help in reducing stress levels. You can have long walks with your pet, play sports like badminton, some breathing exercises and you can learn meditation and yoga as well to help your mind relax and rest.
  • Drinking plain water at least 8 glasses per day or fruit juice for an alternative can also help. Eating nutritious food such as green leafy vegetables and fruits can give you nutrients that your brain and body need. However, nutrients from food you eat every day may not be enough. You can take vitamin supplements containing vitamins C and B-complex, magnesium and calcium which are good for your nervous system. Also, avoid eating foods that are high in fat, sugar or oil.
  • Aromatherapy can also help relieving and reducing anxiety. Lavender is the most common and effective essential oil that can provide you relaxation.

These may work on some people and may not on others. These are just few of the many ways you can follow or use to treat your anxiety. Do not lose hope, just ask for help, don’t keep it.

Love: Do You Believe In the Soul Mate?

by

Christian Singles

The soul mate is said to be a person who is meant to be with another person. Their souls are somehow connected and fate has it that these two people are destined to be together. Sometimes these soul mates are not aware of who their mates are, so they go through life getting into other relationships thinking that they are happy. It is said that no relationship that is not with one’s soul mate will last. Even if it does survive for a long time, there will always be a longing for something more. This longing for something more is simply a long for the person that is meant to be with someone.

Not everyone believes in the idea of soul mates. However, psychics are rumored to have the ability to be able to get in touch with another person’s soul mate. If the concept of the soul mate were not believable, there would not be this many people practicing the art of keeping in touch with them. There has to be some kind of truth to the theory, and perhaps this truth can be tested and found in a clairvoyant fashion.

Different Psychic Connections

The psychic can make a connection with a person’s soul mate in several different ways. One way is by first making a connection with that person. Every human being possesses an energy that surrounds him or her. Psychics are able to use this energy to find out detailed information about who that person is. If the energy is strong enough the psychic may also be able to make a connection with the soul mate and pick up various descriptive information about who he or she is. He or she may be able to see the color of his eyes, how the two people will meet, or even if they are already together.

Medium readings are another way that a psychic could be able to find information on a person’s soul mate. Medium psychics are people who can communicate with the spirits. They have certain abilities that allow them to enter another dimension and see things that the average eye can not see. Some mediums are able to look into the future. A psychic of this type could be utilized to find out if a person will meet his or her soul mate. Spirits of lost relatives may also have this information for the seeker.

Finally a tarot reading may give a clear presentation of loves to come. Tarot reading is the process of using a deck of special cards to give information about a person’s love life, fortune, fame, and lifeline. Only certain psychics have the ability to read these special cards.

There are varying views on whether the soul mate exists and multiple ways of finding out whether there is any validity to the theory. Perhaps a person who does not fully believe should have a meeting with a person with these special abilities and see what the two of them can come up with.

Why online dating scores better than conventional dating

by

Christian Singles

Online dating has definitely caught the imagination of many singles all over the world who are trying to keep themselves abreast of the latest techniques used in finding a partner for life. With dating gaining popularity online, it has managed to change the lives of so many people since it was first introduced in the early nineties.

The process simply involves connecting with other individuals or community   through a website which puts up a list of prospects who are seeking for a partner. Alternatively you can also put up your own profile for other prospective dating singles to browse and respond. Many singles have found lasting friends through online dating and many others have found a life partner suitable to their taste.

Factors which could inspire online dating are
1.    Need for an online friend to share
2.    Pursuit of a lifetime partner for marriage
3.    The craving for discussion and debate with other people
4.    A solution for loneliness and solitude
5.    Addiction to the internet leading to aimless spillover to dating and chatting.
6.    Mischief mongers and other internet abusers

The first four factors make up the huge numbers of the online dating industry and as such are responsible for the flourish of online dating. Among them the first two are credited with being the lifeline of the industry. I find that the need for friendship is of equal to the need for a life time partner in marriage as friendship is sought more online due to various factors which has made people seek friends through the internet. However the basic function of online dating is to connect two people mainly of the opposite gender to come together and explore the possibility of leading a life together in marriage . The dating process simply helps the compatibility issue and allows you to gauge whether the person that you are dating with is good enough to live the distance with you or not.

Online dating sites also provide you with many valuable tips and guidelines to ensure that your dating experience is not sour due to many factors which may be linked to it. Among these, Christian dating advice is pretty sound and can be even applied by singles from other denominations to their own dating experiences to enhance their sense of  dating and keeping themselves and their date content and happy by adhering to some simple dos and donts.

Online dating is more advantageous to conventional dating since you can get to know a bit about the person in advance  although the same may not be accurate. Nevertheless you are informed a bit about the person’s likes and dislikes which can enable you to decide whether the date interests you or not

Compare that to conventional dating and you are in a complete blind alley where you don’t get to know whether the person you are meetings is even a vegetarian or not. Besides no physical attributes or details of the prospect is known to you and you have to meet before you can decide. Often such dates end on an embarrassing note and further communication is uncomfortable on both sides. Online dating does away with this major handicap.

Also online dating is no restricted to one community but spans across communities, regions and religions . you can have a wide choice. From regions to religions and languages there is one for everyone when it comes to dating online. The following dating communities are currently very active on the internet

•    Christian dating service
•    American Singles
•    Jewish dating service
•    UK dating
•    Filipino dating
•    Asian dating
•    Chinese dating
•    Hindu dating
•    Indian dating etc

In many Asian countries as well as some European and American states which have various classes and castes in society and separate communities within a broad religious head, there are separate dating groups to select from. This helps to narrow down choices and one can sift through various profiles of people who are closely related to your own community and then reduce the gap while checking the interests, hobbies, preferences, likes, dislikes etc so that the person that you choose for  a date is the closest to the one whom you would like to have as your friend or a partner.Despite the above checks you may not get the exact person that you were looking for but then at least you are making a studied  decision and not wasting your time aimlessly on all and sundry to get to your desired partner.

Accept the Situation: Advice for Moving On

by

Single Parent Dating

This article is specifically made for dealing with a breakup and moving on, but actually fits most of the other moving on situations. I’ve searched the web and read up on all the advice I could find for these situations. In this article I’ve gathered what I think are the best and most influential ones.

Accept the Situation

All these kinds of emotional situations start with acceptance. Think through what’s happened and try to let it go. Now is the time to occupy your mind with this, as you no longer will again.

Think Fresh

Try to empty your head of your ex girl- or boyfriend. You want to try to not think of this any more, but something completely different. Talk to someone, take a walk, or start planning the future are all good tips.

New Activities

Next up is finding some new activities. Do you have any hobbies you can spend some time with? Maybe get a new hobby? Go out running or go to the gym? There are plenty of things you can do. Be creative

Avoid

Avoid your ex at all cost. You might even want to consider deleting everything that reminds you of your ex. Maybe you have some old pictures or letters? Throw them away.

Famous Sayings and Quotes

This will probably sound silly, but reading up on some good quotes about moving on is a good way to deal with the situation. Hell, even reading some 21st birthday quotes for the humor might even be beneficial.

Stay away from drugs and alcohol. These might initially get you into a good mood, but they might also do the opposite. We advice to stay away from such substances at all cost as the situation can get much worse.

This process might seem like it never will end, but trust me it will. Within a couple of weeks, maybe even a day or two, you might start seeing the world different and with a fresh perspective.

San Francisco

Known for the great red-orange length of its iconic golden gate bridge, San Francisco is an eclectic mix of breath-taking sights, exciting activities and delicious cuisine to sink your teeth into.

Stroll along Fisherman’s Wharf for a taste of fine quality seafood, a spot of fishing and an unforgettable boat trip to the island of Alcatraz. Then as the sun sets, enjoy a taste of San Francisco’s exciting nightlife with your new found friends.

Leave your heart in San Francisco and discover a memorable trip you’ll want to experience again and again.

New York

A trip to New York takes in everything from soaring skyscrapers and finest multicultural cuisines, to illuminous Broadway theatre and one of the most iconic symbols in the world – The Statue of Liberty.

You and you’re tour group will never go hungry for things to see and do and if you’re want a bit of ‘me’ time, grab a coffee and take a pew under the tranquil trees of central park.

Five Tips for a Successful Date

by
Ich und meine Ex-Frau

You’ll experience a great number of dates in your lifetime, though, no matter how long you’ve been dating, you can always use some pointers. It’s always important to be yourself on a date, but sometimes we can get so caught up in our nerves, we forget the basics. Here are some useful tips to help increase your odds of a successful date.

1) Don’t say the “Ex” word: bringing up an ex in any conversation makes for an uncomfortable, awkward moment. It’s best not to mention the past, whether you’re speaking of them in a positive, or negative light, it gives the wrong impression. Talking up your ex can give your date the impression you haven’t moved on, expressing disgust or anger towards them is altogether inappropriate, and something your date is not at all interested in hearing. Stick with talk about friends and family, or otherwise “neutral” parties that don’t relate to any of your former romantic relationships, ex wife, ex boyfriend or otherwise.

2) Dress appropriately: this seems like a no-brainer, but many times it’s easy to not dress correctly for the occasion or venue. This is particularly important for those going on the third or fourth date, as you are more likely to become more comfortable, you might stop trying so hard and begin to under dress. Consider the vibe and atmosphere of the meeting point: is it expensive? Is it contemporary? Is it a lounge, restaurant, bar? Is it for lunch, or dinner? First impressions are always important, but keep the same effort going through out every date, as a rule.

3) Don’t keep them waiting: this goes for women and men. There is no such thing as being “fashionably late”, and no bigger turn off than waiting in a crowed restaurant for your date. Although you may be sure to be punctual on the first date, you should always be on time for every date, no matter how comfortable you are becoming with the person. We all understand there is traffic, but over compensate and arrive early to be sure you show respect to your date.

4) Turn off your phone: the image of a nightmare date often goes along with the individual talking on their phone constantly, ignoring the date completely, this is well known. However, some may think that texting, tweeting, facebooking or checking their fantasy football scores is not equally rude. Staring down at your phone itself is rude, whether you’re bored and checking the time, or telling your friend how amazing your date is. Don’t come off as being inaccessible, keep your phone out of site during dates.

5) Choose a relaxed venue: first dates can be stressful, especially if it’s a blind date and you don’t know what your date’s tastes may be. If you are having trouble choosing a venue for your date, consider a relaxed atmosphere that will help you avoid awkward silences, such as a lounge with live music, or take off the pressure by having a lunch date.
