Most of us have experienced stress or seen its effects by being in the presence of others who are touched. It’s our desire to share a resource and a set of principles that can aid you, the ordinary person and professional care-givers a method of relief without the need of the pharmaceutical industry.

The following is a brief description of the

I. Introduction
“The Science of Attitude Shifting™”

• What the course is and why it works
• The conventional view
• The contemporary view (our method)
• The author

II. Do Drug Companies Really Have The Answers?
“It is far more helpful to a person in need of help if they can be encouraged to learn how to tolerate their feared negative affects instead of masking them”

There is no disagreement that body chemistry has a direct causal effect on the mind in the form of feelings, and emotions. This means that for some people because of their unique risk to reward ratio a prescription for drugs is absolutely necessary for them to effectively cope with anxiety, depression and stress even facing the potentiality of their experiencing serious side effects. The theory of Attitude Shifting™ takes the position that these so called “negative” feelings (anxiety, depression, and stress) should not be thought of as pathological symptoms to be suppressed; but, rather as normal psychological, reactions to stressful life events.

III. The ‘SECRET’
“Adopting The Right Attitude”

1. How to understand your own attitude towards these painful feelings and anyone

  else you might be in the position to assist

2. How to cope with your own attitude in attempting to be maximally helpful with

  someone else.

 
IV. Crisis Ridden Times

“Why We’re Stressed and Anxious”

The fact is that our society is simply not equipped to effectively intervene with all those who require appropriate, timely, and effective intervention for their distress. It is true that necessity is the mother of invention… and in stressful times like ours there is a necessity to take up the slack in periods of crises.

 V. The Need for a Caring ‘Helper’
  “People Need To Be Rescued”

Most people prefer to be in a state balance feeling relatively in control of their lives. When an individual exceeds their ‘failsafe’ point finding themselves in the grips of immobilizing stress and or anxiety it motivates a primitive need to be ‘rescued’. It is a well known fact that the most macho marine when threatened with death by bombs dropping near his foxhole typically cries out for “Mother’!

  VI. THE POTENTIAL POWER of BEDSIDE MANNER
“No matter what physical state you were in, it was always supremely comforting to feel you were accepted unconditionally never judged.” 

People in your presence ( if you are called upon) who are in need of help are going to be more or less familiar to you. They will at times be complete strangers but, usually intimates you have known for many years. In most cases, it is obviously more difficult to reach out to a stranger; but, in such critical matters if you feel comfortable enough you should make the effort. Even if the situation is strained, and you are uncertain as to what to say and how to say it, with those who are ready, willing and able to be comfortable enough getting help from a stranger, they will appreciate whatever you say.

VII. UNDERSTANDING STRESS and ANXIETY
“It is invaluable for the effective clinician to be as informed, as they can, about the many facets of stress and anxiety”

While we imagine most of us know precisely how these emotional states feel, there are still many nuances which are less commonly known or treated with the respect they deserve.

VIII. Understanding Internal and External Triggers
“Feelings are triggered by some external or internal triggers”

Each and every stress and anxiety reaction is triggered by some situation which is experienced as a real or imagined threat to the integrity of the self.

IX. Basic Steps In The Discovery Process
“Providing an Atmosphere of Active Engagement”

When evaluating your own situation or that of another, the key to getting involved is paying un-divided attention to the first responses that are made. Understanding exactly what the major concern is, from your own or their vantage point, in respect to the individual experience with the current stress and/or anxiety.

X. Stress and Anxiety Reducers
“Attitude Shifters™”  The keys to attitude shifting

It is our position that the most effective stress and anxiety reducers are those that start with addressing primary causes rather than ending with reducing symptoms.

Summary

This training goes four steps beyond any other training because:

(1) It employs a trademarked system of Attitude Shifting™ that helps you with your own stress and anxiety or that of other individuals you might encounter in stressful situations. It will allow you to be able to assist in showing them how to get their negative feelings under control and get on with their lives.

(2) The training employs “Spaced Repetition” and practice sessions so that techniques can be reviewed until they will become habitual.

(3) It is “How-To” training in stress and anxiety relief techniques, not a quick, masking solution that will soon fade.

(4) The program’s greatest asset is that it compliments any current methods you might be using.

As the training unfolds, a unique feature comes to light that puts the ideas learned to use in the field. Called ”Attitude Shifters™”, you will be guided in the understanding and use of each exercise and how to apply each shifting technique while making it specific to the specific stressor. By the end of the training,  you will have an understanding of the use and purpose of each method.

'ATTITUDE SHIFTING ™  is only $49.95 and you can read it on your computer (or print out and read wherever you like) in just a few minutes. 

"I am positive that most of you who use my methods will be able to relieve your own stress and anxiety and if called upon, comfort and assist others in coping with their own situations."

Isn't that worth $49.95?
