How To Defeat Stress
Derek Marsh
The best way to defeat stress is to be on top of everything
that is coming your way. Of course, many of us can't do that,
so we manage by other means. You need only identify the cause
of your stress (through journaling) and then release yourself
from it. One technique that is very effective is called
release-the-need. More on this later.
1. Early Warning Signs Of Job Stress
- Headache
- Sleep disturbances
- Difficulty in concentrating
- Short temper
- Upset stomach
- Job dissatisfaction
- Low morale
2. Making Adjustments
Most people need to make serious adjustments to the way they
handle work in order to cope with stress for a permanent amount
of time. You may be carrying stress over from your personal
life, or you may find that your home life is suffering as a
result of your job stress. You need to make adjustments to
counter the effects of pressures like these. Identifying these
symptoms in your life? Then find out what you can control?
Going to sleep earlier can control lacking sleep. This may mean
that you have to carve out time for yourself. If you cannot
control what is causing your stress then you need to identify
this fact and release it. That is the essence of the release
the need technique.
3. Releasing The Need
Another way of saying this is simply Don't worry about things
you have absolutely no control over. Once you free yourself
from the stresses in your life you will see how much more there
is to life. you will notice that your frustration and anxiety
levels will drop dramatically and you will feel more appreciate
for life in general.
5. Medication
Medication can sometimes help you to relieve stress, but always
consult with your doctor before taking any medication,
especially medication that can affect the heart. Meditation and
other de-stressing techniques are also perfect for helping you
to manage your stressful life.
