This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stress Management Skills Training Course. Stress is all around us and affects us all - but it isn't the same for everyone, and each of us handles it differently. One person's challenging pressure is someone else's debilitating stress. Techniques that work well for you might not be so effective for me. There is no single 'right answer', and that's why we want to help you build your own personal toolbox of stress management skills. Course Overview We start this course by taking an in-depth look at stress, exactly what it is and how to deal with it. We show you how to identify your unhealthy stress, and then give you a number of strategies to help you effectively manage and deal with any areas you want to change. Remember, not all stress is bad, some stress is good and can be healthy - plus it's often a great motivator. Throughout the programme we take a holistic approach to stress management and consider both manager and employee in the workplace, as well as how to cope outside work and maintain a healthy work-life balance. Topics include: Identifying and fully understanding what stress is. How stress affects our performance, physical body and behaviour. The importance of becoming aware of stress and then taking responsibility by implementing simple strategies to make desired changes to reduce stress. Successful stress management By taking a more personal, inward-looking approach you can gain far more control and make far more changes than you can by simply waiting and hoping for the world to change around you. By the end of this course you'll have a much deeper awareness of how you create your own stress and what you can do about it. You'll discover that around 80 per cent of the stress you currently suffer maybe in your head! You'll also find out what you can do to change it for good. As part of this unique style of training we'll be looking at your beliefs and your own rule structures. This will allow you to challenge yourself, in a safe environment, to really consider whether you need, or would like to make, a few adjustments to hoe you think about stress. We'll also walk you through easy restructuring and change processes which will allow you to view things differently and start to make deep, long lasting changes. The course is a little different, informal and lots of fun. All we ask is that you open your mind, take from the course what is right for you, and enjoy!

Do you feel physically and emotionally drained even though you do your best to relax? Do you often get infections such as colds or influenza? Do you experience headache and brain fog? Do you often feel helpless or trapped? This looks like chronic stress. And it's more dangerous than you think. Your body is not designed to stay in fight-or-flight mode for extended periods of time. But constant pressure at work, worrying about money, marriage issues, the challenges of parenting, and factors like political instability can make you feel stuck in a never-ending fight-or-flight reaction. And since you can't really fight these factors or run away from them, you may feel like a trapped animal. This constant state of alertness isn't just exhausting. It undermines your mental health, leading to burnout, anxiety and depression. It also takes a physical toll on your entire body, weakening your immune system and increasing the risk of potentially deadly diseases. So once you've recognized that you're suffering from chronic action, you need to take action as soon as possible. But how do you overcome stress? "Just get rid of the things that stress you" is not realistic advice, especially if it means you'd have to get rid of your job, your spouse, your mortgage and your neighbors. Here are some better options. Reduce stress by cultivating emotional resilience and mental toughness. Reduce stress by practicing gratitude and mindfulness. Reduce stress by decluttering your mind. Derick Howell will show you the EXACT steps you need to take to manage your stress.
