Why Stress Management and Mental Health First Aid Training Doesn’t Work

In this video I explain why stress management and mental health first aid training doesn’t work.

What you resist persists.

So what you give your energy to help create it.

I also talk about learned helplessness.

This is another part of the stress response.

And it’s as damaging as the fight and flight response.

It’s like trying to drive your car with the brakes on.

To counter this you need to engage the other part of your nervous system.

This is the parasympathetic part of your autonomic nervous system.

And you do this simply by breathing.

I hope this video helps you.

Have a great day.
