Managing stress needs to be regular process, it crosses into career, work, family, social. 𝐋𝐨𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲:⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
𝟏. 𝐄𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 – Can I eliminate the source of this stress?⁣⁣⁣⁣
• yes now⁣⁣
• yes in a month⁣⁣
• yes in 3 months⁣⁣
• yes in 6 months⁣⁣
• yes next year⁣⁣
• no, not in the near future⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
𝟐. 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞 – Ok so I can’t eliminate it right now (or maybe ever), is there anything I can do or change to reduce the stress this source give me? Try that.⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
Whatever is left is what you need to “manage”. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
Here’s a few stresses that I used this method with⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉I dislike the rubbish this person posts in Insta/Facebook, eliminate now by unfollowing.⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉I don’t enjoy my job. I can’t eliminate it because I need money. I will change jobs next year. Is there anything I can do to reduce its effect on me now? I suggest to my manager to change certain things that make my job difficult / stressful – 𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩!⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
𝟑. 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞 – I have these things in my life that cause me stress, what can I do to manage it?⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
What stress management (leastmode) activity can I do:⁣⁣⁣⁣
• once a year⁣⁣
• Every 6 months⁣⁣
• Every 3 months⁣⁣
• Every month⁣⁣
• Every week⁣⁣
• Every day⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
The amount you need of each of these is individual – the more stress you have, the more stress management you need.⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
On the Management side this is my Leastmode activities⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉Once a year – do a weekend course in something new pottery, woodwork, painting. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉Every 3 months I budgeted €100-150 to spend on myself either getting my hair done, having a facial, going for a massage⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉Every month I go for a day trip / do a alternative therapy session just talking. ⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉Once a week I tried to colour, watch a documentary, make a jigsaw, do yoga.⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣
👉Everyday I try to read, do 5 mins of deep breathing, have a cuddle with my cat/dog etc⁣⁣⁣⁣
