Stress can be caused, if several problems come together at the same time and we either have no solution for them or not enough time, to solve them all in due time, like:
- Financial pressures
- too much work pressures
- problems with family at home
How can we reduce the stress ?
1. prepare a to do list with all tasks and problems
2. analyze the problems one by one and develop several concepts, how to solve them. Use a problem journal, into which you write all relevant information and solution ideas. Review it every week.
3. discuss these concepts with others and apply the most promising one.
4. plan at least 1 hour each day, when you relax and don´t think about your problems. Just enjoy life and do, what you enjoy to do
5. if stress is caused, because your life situation will change ( job, family etc ), then write down, what causes fear to you. Is it only some diffuse fear of the unknown future or are there some real problems, which future could bring. Develop again several concepts, how to clarify these future problems and solve them if they really should occur.
6. reserve one day per week for relaxation and at least one weekend per month for relaxation.
7. train relaxation methods, like
- autogenic training
- Yoga
- TaiChi
- and do some sport like walking, swimming etc.
