STRESS MANAGEMNT

As your body is continually subjected to stress, you could eventually suffer from more serious conditions such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. You must therefore take the time to learn about stress related illnesses to fully understand the importance of improving stress management regimen. Common Signs of Stress The initial step to stress management at home is to identify when you are stressed. When you are in that situation, it is often difficult to identify that and take the necessary measure to reverse its effects. 

Below are the signs you should take note of: 

Inexplainable fatigue, Insomnia, Weight loss or gain, High blood pressure, Anxiety, Constant headaches, Depression

  As soon as you notice any of the above signs manifest, then you need to take a break for a while. Some of the most common ones include the following: 

Muscle pain or tension, Headaches, Sweating and dizziness, Bowel problems, Nausea, Tensed feeling all over your body, Feeling of irritability, Memory failure, Insomnia 

In addition to the above symptoms, one could also develop severe problems resulting from stress such as asthma, high blood pressure, and other problems of the heart. 

Symptoms of Stress 

The symptoms of stress are also proving to be an obstacle in one's stress management efforts. There are literally hundreds of different symptoms, most of which are too common that it is often associated with some other illnesses or condition. As a result, people dismiss it as having been caused by stress and relate them to some other condition.

 Stress-Related Illnesses 

These types of illnesses are being far more common today with most individuals leading a hectic lifestyle that makes on vulnerable to suffering from stress. Whether at home, in the workplace, at school stress is always present. If you lack proper stress management, then it won't be long until you develop physical symptoms of stress. Also, make sure you identify certain tasks according to what needs to be completed at the soonest possible time.

 You need to faithfully commit yourself to doing the task within your highest priority before moving on to doing something else. This will also promote a smoother flow at work that enables you to get more done in as little time as possible.

How to Get More Quiet and Nature in Your Life

 One of the biggest challenges when it comes to beating information overload, is simply escaping the incessant bombardment of notifications, entertainment and stimulation. It’s no wonder we’re all so wired and tired when we spend our days writing against the clock under sterile lights fuelled by coffee and our evenings blowing things up on an even bigger screen!

Sometimes you need to inject a little quiet and some natural light into your routine and this can give you a lot more space to be calm and to be yourself.

Here are some tips to help you do that:

Half an Hour Before Bed

One very good habit to get into is to take half an hour before bed to wind down and to read a book or something. During this time, you simply make the rule that you will not use your smartphone and that you won’t look at any screens.

Now I know what you’re thinking: you don’t have time to spend half an hour without your screens. My answer is that you do – even if it means going to bed half an hour later! If you can’t manage half an hour, try for 15 minutes first. The point is that this will help you to sleep better anyway, so consider it an investment.

Reading is particularly good because it requires sustained attention – something that we’re not always so good at anymore. If you don’t want to read though, then try writing a journal instead.

Go for a Walk

Going for a walk will give you time to think and to get some fresh air.

Once again, you’re probably thinking that you don’t have time for this. Once again, the key is to work it into your routine.

This time, look at things you can do while walking – or look at making existing walks a little longer. Do you walk to the bus? Then try leaving five minutes earlier and taking a nice detour. Do you call your friend once a week to catch up? Then why not do it while walking around the block?

Practice Meditation

If you can find 10 minutes to practice some meditation in your day, then it will greatly increase your ability to focus, to combat stress and to keep your mind calm. A great app to help you get started is ‘Headspace’ but you can find lots of tutorials on YouTube as well.
