Getting to the Root of the Problem

Millions of Americans are hiding dirty little secrets. Panic attacks plague a large portion of the population. Though many doctors offer tips for panic attacks, the most effective treatment is understanding the root of the problem. There are many reasons why a person may suffer from a panic attack. Doctors once thought that all panic attacks were a result of the psychological disposition of the individual, but recent research has found that panic attacks can be caused by many psychological and physiological issues.

Here are several factors that may cause panic attacks:

~ Chemical imbalance in the brain
~ Diabetes
~ Hypoglycemia
~ Menopause
~ Pregnancy
~ Poor diet and nutrition
~ Alcoholism

Cleansing The Skin

All good skincare regimens begins with proper cleansing that removes the dirty surface film that our skin picks up from our surroundings. The more polluted the surroundings, the better the cleansing needs to be. A good thorough cleansing is absolutely necessary for healthy skin or for natural acne prevention. To clean the skin, its best to select a gentle hypoallergenic, pH-balanced cream, lotion or soap, designed to help dissolve surface dirt and any makeup. Massage the cleansing cream into the skin, wait a few moments and remove the residue with facial tissue, or wash your face with a gentle soap.

To remove the buildup of normal dead cells, it is beneficial to regularly exfoliate the skin, with a gentle scrub. This is also helpful with a natural acne treatment, but you need to be really gentle. If you do have an acne problem, it will take more that just cleaning the surface of the skin. Acne free in 3 days will discuss in great detail how to get rid of acne permanently.

Be Greatful and Have a Positive Attitude

The grateful mind is always looking toward the Supreme, and is always open to receive from it; and it will receive continually. Wallace D. Wattles - The Science of Being Well (1910)

Dr. Stan Gardner

Gratitude is one of the best ways to decrease the affects of anxiety and panic and opens the door to a positive attitude. I know this personally, I have really had to WORK at being a more positive person and finding and holding on to the GOOD things in life. It is easy to be negative, anxious and depressed, and over the years I became very tired of feeling bad all of the time. You have to put in a lot of effort to be grateful and positive, but it is really worth it. My life is definately worth living now.

Foot Massage

In a world where we do so much standing, running, walking and lifting, our feet are too often neglected. Our feet are being stifled in shoes and socks all day, and have restricted circulation and air contact and a foot massage can help to get that circulation going again. What better way to give the feeling of rejuvenation throughout the entire body then to receive a foot massage.
Although machines that massage feet are becoming popular, there is no replacement for what the genuine human touch can do. So whether your massaging your own foot or someone else’s, in most cases it will allow you or the recipient to walk away feeling better, and with a more positive attitude than you had prior to starting.

Cranio Sacral Therapy Helped Me Overcome Fear

I have lived my entire life in fear. If there wasn’t something to be afraid of, I would create it. When I began to receive Cranio Sacral Therapy, the practitioner would assist me in going back to memories of times in my life when I was frightened by a person or situation. As I would either talk or think through the situation, the therapist would adjust the cranial movements. Then she would have me either think of the ideal situation, different from what really happened. As I would change my thought patterns, she would adjust the cranial movements again to teach my whole system how to deal with stress and fear more appropriately.
At Salt Lake City cranio sacral therapy, you can receive information and treatments that may help you change your life and decrees you stress, fear, anxiety, panic. etc. It has really changed my life!

Don't Forget Gratitude

Many causes of anxiety attacks comes from constant worry, many times about things that we have no control over. In treating anxiety attacks, one of the many steps that we need to take is to change our thought patterns. The power of positive thinking doesn’t mean to just keep our thoughts on positive things, but if our thoughts are drawn to things we are grateful for, it causes a wonderful chemistry in our brain and in our body that can eventually assist everything else we are doing, to decrease and eventually eliminate the anxiety and panic attacks.
Don’t forget the power of prayer when you are focusing on gratitude. God has given us all we have, including our weaknesses and struggles so that we can become strong. I eventually learned to be thankful for my anxiety attack symptoms because they helped turn me toward being thankful to God. The more spiritually focused I became, the more I could assist others in improving their lives. Read the following quote and follow his advice and see if it can help you become stronger.
Do not forget the exercise of gratitude in going to sleep; before you close your eyes, give thanks to God for having shown you the way to perfect health, and go to sleep with this grateful thought uppermost in your mind. Wallace D. Wattles - The Science of Being Well (1910)

The Panic Away Program has a lot of information that can help most everyone. I have tried the concepts that Jo Barry talks about. These are proven methods that can help if you are persistant.

Diet and Exercise, Don't Do Too Much Too Fast

Any major deviation in our daily lives produces a reaction. If you suddenly started a strenuous exercise program, you’d be stiff and sore the next day. If you eat less food than normal, you’d soon have hunger pangs. You want to start out gradually and work up to your goal. Making changes later in life can be a fun-filled, fruitful, inspiring experience. Let’s not ruin it by overdoing it and getting discouraged too soon. Jack LaLanne - Revitalize Your Life After 50
I know this for a fact. I have tried exercise and diet and wanted results ‘yesterday’. Then I would get discouraged and quit. I work with people almost everyday who are doing the same thing and I have a long talk with them about the fact that they didn’t get where they are overnight, so they shouldn’t expect great results overnight. I have been able to lose 45 pounds this past year with Fat loss for Idiots. It’s a good basic program that I can live with for the rest of my life because it is so easy.

Age 50 and Older, Greater Chance of Dehydration

We need to drink enough fluid for the kidneys to produce a minimum of 30ml of urine an hour, so they can filter toxins from the blood. But thirst is not always a good indicator to know if you are dehydrated and need to drink more water. In people who are over 50, the thirst sensation decreases, and it will continue to diminish with age. For this reason older people are more susceptible to get dehydrated.
The best way to make sure that you are properly hydrated is to look at the colour of your urine. If it is consistently dark, you should increase your fluid intake. If it looks like water, then you may be drinking too much. The ideal is for it to be a pale straw color. Drinking water filters in your home can help keep your water cleaner and make it taste better.
