How to combat stress
Self awareness
The following stress relief technique and tips are extracts from my self help website www.click2revive.com.uk
Discussing your problems with a GP or trained therapist will help.
1. Eat properly good nutrition is a must, extra vitamin C & B complex can help as these vitamins are used in greater quantities by the body when under stress. Make sure you are drinking plenty of water, cut down on coffee and soft drinks.
2. Get plenty of exercise, fresh air, laughter & fun
3. Avoid useless and needless stress learn relaxation or meditation
4. When away from work: practice letting the phone ring, go on with whatever you are doing, by refusing to respond to the phone call you are in fact breaking the response and learning how to relax. If at first you find it impossible to ignore the urge to respond, delay it by counting to ten before you act, this breaks up the automatic workings of conditioning allowing you to be in control.
5 Use the same method of counting to ten when you are tempted to become angry, by holding off emotions of fear, panic or anger you may be able to break the automatic reflex completely.
6 By turning off your mobile phone you will give your mind and body a rest you have programmed your mind, it is on constant alert to answer that call.
7. Find that quiet place within yourself to help distance you from the stress of the moment, practice in your mind sitting on a sunny beach and feeling the warmth of the sun on your face, you will soon find that it becomes easier to get away from stress.
