Stress Management Information

Stress is something that occurs when certain pressures exceed our perceived ability to cope with them. At one time or another we have all felt its grasp, but the good news is that we can do something about it and significantly reduce the impact it has on our lives.

The effect that stress can have on our health, wellbeing and relationships is immense. Research has shown that stress has now overtaken the common cold as the most often cited reason for workplace absence.

Further research has shown that high stress levels can lead to:

•      Heart attacks / strokes

•      Cancer

•      Anxiety and Depression

•      Obesity

•      Ulcers and diabetes  

•      Irritable Bowel Syndrome

• Nervous breakdown  
  

Stress can be reduced by:

•      Practising meditation and relaxation techniques

•      Physical fitness programme

•     Optimal  Nutrition and hydration

Taking action is a key aspect of being a master of our own stressful situations. Just knowing that we can handle our stress - and thinking about the benefits we'll experience as a result - can give us the motivation to do something about it. Call now on 01494 722914 to find out more.
