Stress Management... It has been said that I am good at stressing management. Actually the only source of stress is your mindset and primarily your reaction to external events. Life is Choice and you can chose to stay or go, to React or Respond. When you are feeling stressed, take a moment to observe yourself and assess the situation. Are you reacting or can you choose to respond. This PAUSE gives you the opportunity to observe and choose.

One way to take control of your emotions is to stop taking things personally. Just because someone is angry or stressed around you, doesn't mean it's about you or for you to take on as your own. We often personalize something that's happening, then add our own guilt and self judgment to it-making it even more stressful. Instead, identify the stressful situation, see if you can add a solution, find a stress relieving activity that works for you so you don't carry it with you, and see if there's anything to be learned or gained from the experience.

The opposite of depression is expression. People who do not express themselves usually end up in two harmful ways. 1. Implode: Some engage in self-sabotage with harmful habits. 2.

Talk to someone 2. Write it down 3. Meditate 4. Try art therapy 5. Learn ATB awareness through body

Silence emerges as a potent stress-reliever, as unveiled in studies by Pfeifer et al. (2019). Whether immersed in nature or within the walls of a room, moments of silence usher in a serene calmness, providing a natural antidote to the pressures of modern life. The connection between silence and mindfulness is profound. The studies suggest that simply being exposed to silence in a natural setting mimics the effects experienced in mindfulness interventions. This aligns with the growing body of research on the positive outcomes of mindfulness, highlighting silence as a simpler yet effective pathway to present-moment awareness.

I recently realised that time is only linked to the frozen past and the future, which is by definition unknown. The present, on the other hand, is a non-time. The present can be stretched to infinity, giving us time to rediscover our lost harmony.

Shifting your mindset is indeed a powerful tool in managing stress. As a business mindset coach, I've seen how reframing problems and adopting a positive outlook can transform stress into a catalyst for growth.
