How to deal with eye fear

It is said that a person's eyes can directly express his or her inner thoughts and activities, so a person's eyes play an important role in daily communication. A calm look can give people a sense of stability, while an erratic look can make people feel uncomfortable. Couples also rely on eye contact to determine each other's intentions in daily interactions, but some people just don't dare to look others in the eye. This is called eye contact phobia. What should you do if you suffer from this disease?

1. Look in the mirror at least three times a day, look at yourself in the mirror and smile at yourself, so that you can relax and have a natural expression. Also, look yourself directly in the mirror, and you will gradually get used to looking others in the eye.

2. Use deep breathing to overcome psychological tension and anxiety, and thereby overcome your own delusions. By regulating breathing, it affects various systems of the body, including the activities of the nervous system, making them rhythmic. Combining work and rest and doing 1-2 hours of physical exercise every day can also help relieve mental tension.

3. Tell your relatives and friends about your "symptom" and ask them to help you overcome the fear of looking at others. Having the courage to tell others is the beginning of treatment. Practice looking your relatives and friends in the eye when you talk to them, don't be afraid of being laughed at by others, and gradually it will become a habit.

4. To train your concentration and achieve inner peace, you can do a "bean-scattering experiment", which is both interesting and therapeutic: scatter 1-10 beans on a plate, with different numbers each time (ask others to scatter the beans), and immediately say the number of beans, recording the time taken and whether it is correct or not. Keep doing it every day, starting with 10 minutes and gradually increasing the time. When you reach a level where your errors are reduced and your reactions are quick and accurate, it means you are able to concentrate while being watched by others. Fewer than 5 errors are required within 1 hour.

If you suffer from "eye contact phobia", don't worry, just learn from the shy little yellow warbler and your problem will be cured. Remember: you have to relax, always smile, and your brain and eyes will listen to you. Have confidence in yourself, don't worry about nothing, and don't bother yourself with trivial matters, and you will be as healthy and happy as before.

1. Don’t demand perfection from yourself. Teacher Qu Weijie once said, “Perfection = failure.” This means that the more people pursue perfection in everything, the more they will worry about gains and losses, and they will not be able to accomplish anything.

2. Let nature take its course in everything you do. First of all, let nature take its course in treating your own emotions. As long as you do that, you will be able to find the right balance between relaxation and tension.

3. Don’t pay too much attention to your own “fear” (eye contact, eye contact). The less you pay attention to it, the milder the symptoms will be.

4. When dealing with fear of eye contact, you should first accept your fear of eye contact and tell yourself, "Looking at others won't kill you, it's no big deal." Then communicate naturally. Even if you don't look into others' eyes, don't mind it, just let it be.

5. Morita therapy is an experiential training. Only through the experience can we truly understand the philosophy and essence of it. Therefore, it is recommended to go to a formal and experienced consulting agency for experience.
