STRESS MANAGEMENT


                                                   

Stress is evitable. It’s like that overbearing neighbor who constantly drops by randomly, any time of the day, just to say “hi” throughout the week.
Yes, stress can overwhelm and walk all over us, unless we take action. Fortunately, there are many simple ways we can reduce and cope with stress. The first major step is to focus in and identify what’s actually stressing us out. It’s good to pinpoint your stressors which help in organizing your priorities.
Allow some free time to exercise, relax, and do what makes you feel good. With a great sense of humor and a lighthearted attitude, stressful situations and events can go from being annoying to being amusing.
What I‘ve learned, is that you need to embrace mistakes and don’t drown in perfectionism. Never feel like you are alone with your problems. Chances are that other people feel the same way too. Practicing moderation and creating balance in your life will give you an overall wellness. Remember, the goal is to reduce stress not eliminate it. A little bit of stress and tension can be beneficial and often compels us to be productive and successful in life.
