Stress Management: Find Your Own Relief!
Would you believe that one of the biggest contributors to your
state of health is how stress free your home environment is?
Those who live in stressful conditions in home or at work are
much more likely to have accidents or become ill when compared
to those who consider themselves to be in a non-stressful work
or home environment.
Unfortunately, the modern world has created situations in both
home and work that are at a higher level of stress than those of
past generations. The world today runs at a much faster pace
then the world even ten or twenty years ago. And it is speeding
up if anything. The demands we make on ourselves are increasing,
as are the expectations we have of our relationships and
ourselves. Is it any surprise that Heart Attacks are a leading
cause of death in the United States? What can be done to fix
this?
First consider that you will actually spend more working hours
at work than you will at home. Given that consider how stressful
your job is and what about it makes it stressful. Once you
pinpoint the causes see if you can find a way to reduce the
stress level or delegate the responsibility of certain tasks
that are particularly troublesome.
Stressful activities are not the only employee problem though.
The fact is many feel stress simply because they do not like the
job as a whole. If you do not like your job then you owe it to
yourself to go about seeking other employment rather than
staying at the risk of long-term health problems. Sometimes the
simple act of even exploring other opportunities lessens the
stress in your life. So even if you only look it is probably
more beneficial to you than continuing to endure a job that you
do not enjoy.
Second, consider the town or city that you live in. Is this the
ideal place for you? Life is too short to live in a where you
are unhappy. Yet, we all know many people who complain day in
and day out about the place they live and yet they don't do
anything about it. Often we make compromises about living
preferences to be close to family and these are not
bad
decisions. The support and foundation that extended family
provides is very important for our overall health and well
being. However, if that is not a consideration then there is no
reason one should not make a move to a happier and healthier
environment.
The perfect environment for one person is not necessarily the
perfect environment for another though. For some, being beside
the ocean is the ultimate in tranquility while for others it is
a stressful nightmare because of the hurricane risk. Make a
decision that is right for you in terms of where you choose to
live.
Third, consider your actual home in terms of the actual
physical environment itself and also the emotional environment
created by the members living within the home. Ideally both of
these should be healing, peaceful and stress free.
It is always easier to fix the physical environment first.
Decide to build a sanctuary in your home. A sanctuary is a place
you can retreat to that resonates with positive energy. What is
needed in that place depends on your own personal taste. Some
may want to make it a religious sanctuary or sacred space while
for others it may simply be a quiet place in nature. And do not
underestimate the effect of plants and landscaping on your own
individual health. Healthy plants reflect a healthy life.
Lastly, think about the emotional environment created by those
who live in your home. Is it healthy, peaceful and supportive?
What underlying conflicts disrupt the harmony in the home? Go
about seeing that these are settled for the best interest of
all.
Create an environment that you are happy with both in your
personal life and in your professional life and you will
appreciate the long-term benefits that result.
