The next time you feel like screaming from all the stress work is putting on you, well go right ahead and let it all out, for a new research has found that a good shout can cut stress by up to 25 percent.
The study, conducted on a volunteer group of 1,000 people, had found that heat waves and travel delays had added to the stress of employees trying to get to work on time.
50 percent of those questioned admitted that travelling to work was a major cause of stress. However, for most employees, working long hours in the office was what was causing them to be increasingly bad tempered, reports The Scotsman.
The researchers found that letting out a loud scream is pretty effective when it come to blowing of a little steam, for it helps to calm people down.
However, though effective, most workers don’t go in for the ‘scream therapy’, for they are too inhibited to do so.
Primal therapy is a trauma-based psychotherapy developed and popularized by Arthur Janov, Ph.D. The patient is NOT encouraged to cry, scream or beat a padded wall (though the environment allows it and it is not discouraged). This is a common misunderstanding. As Janov himself stated on his web site, "Primal Therapy is not Primal 'Scream' Therapy. Primal Therapy is not just making people scream it was never 'screaming' therapy".
Janov claimed that in primal therapy patients would find their real needs and feelings in the process of experiencing all their "Pain" (a technical term of Primal Theory, see below). The absence of peer-reviewed outcome studies to substantiate this claim led to the therapy falling out of favor in academic and psychotherapeutic circles. However Dr. Janov and his associates have continued developing the therapy and to provide it at his Center in Venice, California.
