Learn to control your emotions For Asthma Person



A change in your emotional state can often trigger an asthmatic episode,

so you should try to control your emotional outbursts, regardless of whether they are due to panic, a joyous occasion or a sad event.

For example, completing a strenuous task that you are highly proud of, such as a charity walk, may cause you to become emotional, especially if there are family members at the finish line to cheer you on.

This may not be a problem under normal circumstances, but after a long walk you will probably be out of breath and physically drained which automatically puts extra strain on your lungs.

Add to this the elation of finishing the walk and you have all the ingredients for exercise-induced asthma, which will be made worse by the fact that you suddenly become highly emotional, even tearful on seeing your family. 

If you can learn to control your emotions until your body has had some time to recover, then any asthmatic episode can be easily treated with a simple inhaler.

If emotions get the better of you and your lungs are put under extra pressure, it may be that your normal inhaler is insufficient and you find yourself having a major episode.

There are a number of relaxation methods and mental exercises designed to help people control their emotions, many of which are very easy to learn and practice. By employing these techniques during emotional times, you will often be able to avert an asthmatic episode.
