Stress and Strategies to Manage It


Are you feeling stressed?  Do you suddenly feel that uncomfortable feeling of anxiety and stress?  



There are ways to manage your stress.  It helps to have some ready to use strategies for managing your stress. 

Brett R. Williams, MFT has two suggestions for managing stress.

1. Note all the self care you do when you are in a non stressed situation.  When you are on vacation or relaxing on a weekend, you may find that you sleep better, take a walk, spend time with friends. When you find yourself moving into a high stress situation choose to continue those self care behaviors. Perhaps take a short walk or call a friend to get together with. 



2. Adjust your thinkerator. Everything that happens in your life your brain tends to evaluate on a scale from 1-10, with 10 being very high, life and death a critical situation. But everything is not a 10.  Think about the situation that is causing you stress and assign it a realistic number, which will bring the stress level down.
