We learned to recognize our moods and the moods of others. We learned what to do to reduce the stress we are feeling even when we are in a low mood. We have also learned to recognize analysis paralysis. In our study of reducing stress today we will consider stressful behavior.Recall that stressful behavior differs from peaceful behaviors based on how one is thinking at thetime. Recall that Analysis paralysis thinking is a learned and instinctual thought process in most people.Thinking present moment thoughts is a learned behavior.Gently bringing yourself back to the present moment produces a less stressful life.How does that happen? That’s what we will find out about in today’s lesson.We will consider a special association. What does that idea mean to you?We will learn how to recognize and gently stop analysis paralysis and to immediately reduce stressful feelings.If you can recognize when you are in “analysis paralysis” and gently stop yourself, then you can immediately stop the stressful feelings that you are having. Evidence which illustrates how the variables relate:Carlson explanation:INDEPENDENT VARIABLE DEPENDENT VARIABLEA person is caught up in their thinking The person has stressful feelingsA person gently stops himself from thinking this wayThe stressful feelings immediately go awayPOSTTESTFor the brief case below:1. write a procedure for reducing stress by stopping the analysis paralysis.2. Write why you plan to proceed as you do.Janet woke up in the middle of the night and remembered a phone call that she needs to make thefollowing day. Then, rather than feeling relieved that she remembered such an important call, she started thinking about everything else she has to do tomorrow. She starts rehearsing a probably conversation with her boss, getting herself even more upset. Pretty soon she thinks to herself, “I can’t believe how bust I am. I must make fifty calls a day.
