Stress & Its Causes
- There are two types of stress: distress (bad stress that causes negative feelings and dis-ease) and eustress (good stress that causes positive feelings and motivation).
- Discussing about the stresses that the participants face.
- Discussing about burn-out and how it is different from stress (which is more permanent and pervasive).
Impacts of Stress
- Discussing about the chemicals involved and the natural peaks in the day.
- Understanding how the different chemicals trigger fight or flight responses, create short term thinking (not good for problem solving that the stressful situations require) and how they keep the parasympathetic system (crucial for good health, e.g. needed to digest food and store memories) switched off.
Reducing Stress, Routines & Plans
- Studying the well documented benefits of mindfulness (aware of how you are feeling, what you are thinking, and where your attention is) physical exercise, morning routines, meditation, belief remapping, and energy techniques (e.g. tapping or visualizing the feeling and moving it).
- We then make a plan of a feasible morning routine. It can be built upon and an ‘emergency’ go to technique in case overwhelm, panic, or stress strikes.
Reflection & Action Planning
- You reflect on what you wish to gain from today (which you looked at in the beginning of the course).
- You advize yourself on the one to three things that you aim to do differently in order to get back to work, and how you will get back on track in case you forget.
