AVOIDING AND MANAGING STRESS POSITIVELY
It is well recognised that excess pressure at work can lead to tension and stress. Too much pressure clearly causes tension and chronic tension triggers numerous stress reactions.
Tension is a natural physical reaction to excessive pressure. Stress avoidance techniques and programmes rarely deal with stress as a physical or “somatic” problem.
With the exception of prescribing and encouraging you to take more exercise as a means of de-stressing, the element of physical tension is generally ignored. Instead these programmes focus solely on cognitive aspects of your performance.
Yet, when you learn how to release physical tension and how to avoid becoming tense, you function better in both your body and your mind and avoid the numerous stress reactions of chronic tension.
