Abstract

People across the country are experiencing significant levels of stress across most areas of life, including economic (jobs and inflation), health (epidemics), social and relationship issues, and international conflicts and political strife. People want to cope better but the amount of information available on stress management is staggering, confusing, and sometimes contradictory. Drawing from empirically supported intervention research that integrates biofeedback and psychotherapy approaches, three simple practices can help clients build stress resilience: balancing life demands with equanimity, becoming more aware but less worried, and actively engaging in flexible coping strategies. These three practices are straightforward to learn and easy to do as part of daily life. Although these approaches are typically administered individually in psychotherapeutic settings, there is significant potential in using a community approach to intervention. Most importantly, these techniques are proven, cheap, and have no side effects and can be easily administered using online website instruction and smartphone assessment technology.

在困难时期提高抗压能力:整合生物反馈和心理治疗的实践
全国各地的人们在生活的大部分领域都面临着巨大的压力,包括经济(就业和通货膨胀)、健康(流行病)、社会和关系问题,以及国际冲突和政治冲突。人们希望更好地应对,但关于压力管理的信息数量惊人、令人困惑,有时甚至自相矛盾。根据经验支持的综合生物反馈和心理治疗方法的干预研究,三种简单的做法可以帮助客户建立压力恢复力:平静地平衡生活需求,变得更加清醒但不那么担心,以及积极采取灵活的应对策略。这三种做法学习起来很简单,作为日常生活的一部分也很容易做到。尽管这些方法通常在心理治疗环境中单独使用,但使用社区方法进行干预有很大的潜力。最重要的是,这些技术经过验证,价格低廉,没有副作用,可以使用在线网站指导和智能手机评估技术轻松管理。
