Relaxation and Sleep Techniques That Actually Work
Comment by The Candles (410)   The Candles (24 days 3 hours ago.)

Sulagna! Great article! If you add 'Paryer' in 'Spiritual Relaxation' I think it will be nice. When you depend or rely something or somebody greater than yourself, I really feel relieved. Its psychological as well as spiritual. Prayer - talking to God, is really necessary for all sorts of problems.
May God bless you...

Thank you so much, Candles! Actually what you've mentioned-prayer-is exactly what I meant as 'spiritual relaxation'. It's so nice of you to mention the word.:)
Exerting Self-Control: the 'Replacement Trick'
Comment by The Candles (410)   The Candles (33 days 1 hour ago.)

You are absolutely right! Whenever I address the youth on habits, I always suggest them not to avoiding your habit but replace with a better habit. If you a try to avoid you will do it again and again.
Are you a counselor? Whats your profession? I viewed your website too. Quite interesting one. Keep it up...
Comment by Sulagna Dasgupta (1,208)   Sulagna Dasgupta (33 days ago.)
Thanks a lot Candles, I'm glad you too feel the same way about this. I'm not a counsellor by profession. But I take a lot of interest in self-help and self-improvement. I deeply beleive in some self-improvement principles which I've also applied in my life and have seen that they really work. That's why I wanted to share some of these principles and my own self-help experience with people. That's the reason for setting up my site. Thanks a lot for visiting it and I'm glad that you liked it.:)

How To Concentrate
Hannah Quinn from Australia: (114 days 11 hours ago.)

Sulagana,
Great tips. I have used the 5 minute strategy since I was 19 and wanted to give up smoking. After 3 weeks, I didn't even have the urge to smoke anymore, and I used to be a 2 pack a day smoker. I found it very easy to wait 5 minutes, 10 minutes and gradually extended the time. I'm using it now to lose some extra weight. Five minutes before I eat anything, 10 minutes, etc. And 5 minutes before I take the last bite, 10 minutes. No, I don't want that last bite after all! It's an excellent strategy and one the mind copes with quite simply. It also helped my sister-in-law to lose quite a bit of weight many years ago. Of course, she was highly motivated. She had to lose weight to fall pregnant. Happily, she is still of a good weight and has two beautiful and successful adult daughters!
I'd recommend these strategies to anyone who reads this article.
Cheers, Hannah

Thanks so much for commenting, Hannah. The 5 minutes strategy is the most powerful self-help strategy I've used in my life. It's beauty lies in its simplicity. It's so easy to follow, and so sure to produce results! Like you've said, if you make it a habit to use this strategy, you can rest assured, you'll be able to exert every bit of self-control you want to exert on yourself.
And congratulations on having used it so successfully! I'm sure it'll help you immensely with your current project too.

Exerting Self-Control Is Not As Difficult As You Think!
Comment by Gerry Charbonneau (417)   Gerry Charbonneau (115 days 19 hours ago.)

Your article has lots of merit to it. Good work. Can you enhance this "virtuous circle" by associating your mind set with the type of positive mind set you're trying to emulate.
Many times the people we interact with in life are subconsciously radiating their own negative spheres of influence. They may or may not be aware that you're trying to change your way of thinking about things.
If you can create your own social circle of like-minded individuals your success rate will improve dramatically. It's all in the way you change your conscious and subconscious ways of interacting with life. Usually a close friend, spouse or confidant can help you acheive the goal you seek.
Consciously creating your own like minded group of intimates will help you feel less guilty about changing the way you feel and think about things!
Comment by Sulagna Dasgupta (1,208)   Sulagna Dasgupta (114 days 22 hours ago.)
Thanks a lot, Mr. Charbonneau for your valuable advice. Like you, I think the best way to stay positive is to stay away from negative people as much as possible. Even if you are unable to avoid a few of them, you should try your best to ignore whatever negative thoughts they might try to infuse you with. Thanks again for commenting!
How To Write An Effective Article
Comment by Sandra E. Graham (1,382)   Sandra E. Graham (146 days 10 hours ago.)

Great article, Sulagna. I have read it before but didn't have time to leave a comment, so I came back. You have some very good ideas for all us writers or want-to-be writers. I remember the first thing I learned about writing--I was told to write about what I know. It took me a long time to start writing, because I wasn't sure what I knew.
Thanks for the info.

Contemporary Nudism-The Blatant Lie of Nudists
Comment by Michael Kocis (924)   Michael Kocis (165 days 20 hours ago.)

Interesting article on a subject, I haven't thought of in years, many years. Your point of view is very honest and it was fun to read. I especially agree with you on "don't force it on kids"
Thanks for writing this Sulagna.
Michael
Response from Sulagna Dasgupta (1,208)   Sulagna Dasgupta : (165 days 6 hours ago.)
Thanks for such a heartening comment, Michael.
It is really encouraging to find that someone finds my point of view valid, especially today, when (as I've mentioned in the article) most people somehow seem to miss this obvious paradox!
