Happy National Stress Awareness Day! On the first Wednesday in November, this day aims to identify and reduce the stress factors in your life.
Everyone has stress. Some stress is good for us. It helps us to respond to changes in life.
Stress is our body’s way of protecting itself from harm. However, too much stress causes harm to our health and relationships.
Identifying the stressors impacting our physical and mental health is important. Sometimes, health problems are the cause.
But our health can also be affected by external stressors such as physical abuse, stressful work environments, financial stress, or other family health issues.
Once we identify the causes of stress in our lives, we can begin to eliminate or reduce stress. Some tools that help with stress include:
• Develop coping skills for anxiety.
• Identify and let go of the things you cannot change.
• Exercise helps us to let go of built-up anxiety.
• Eating a balanced diet fuels our bodies so we’re able to better cope with the stress.
HOW TO OBSERVE
Develop a routine to help you lessen your tension. Go for a walk, do some deep breathing, get some exercise or a massage, or take a long, relaxing bath.
If you’re struggling with the amount of stress in your life, seek help. You can speak to your doctor or check with your employer for an assistance program designed to help employees balance their life.
Post your ideas using #StressAwarenessDay on social media.
