This month is Stress Awareness Month!
At a time like this, there's probably never been a better time to talk about stress.
The Stress Management Society have some great advice about how to deal with your own stress:
"⭐️Talk about Stress and it’s effects – lets work together to reduce the stigma that is associated with stress by talking about the topic openly and freely with friends, family and colleagues.
⭐️Share your coping mechanisms – if something has worked for you why not share it. It might benefit someone you care about and in the meantime it might help you take your focus off your own challenges.
⭐️Be nice to those who are stressed and anxious – we are all undoubtedly going to experience stress and anxiety in our lifetime so treat others going through wit with compassion and empathy.
⭐️Look after yourself – we all need to think more about self –care. Take time out of your day to relax or do something that you enjoy. Don’t forget to exercise and eat well, even when you feel too stressed."
They also have some great info, including a 'Stress Guide', free to download & lots of stress solution ideas on their website:
