What Is Stress Management?

Ever notice that a good laugh has a way of lightening your burdens? Or maybe you’ve experienced a scenario like one of these. Your day feels completely stressful and overwhelming, but then you coach yourself to step away from the frenzy, collect your thoughts, make a list of what’s going on– prioritizing what’s important. Has your list ever helped you discover that perhaps your day is more manageable than it seemed?

Or maybe you usually go walking with a friend before you start your workday. This week seems entirely too busy and stressful to fit in such “frivolities.” But you decide that instead of skipping it, you’ll go ahead and walk. Afterward, you notice it was good for you physically, socially, and emotionally and upon sitting down for the work day, you actually feel more able to attack the list of tasks.

Causes of Stress

Stress can come from many sources, which are known as “stressors.” Because our experience of what is considered “stressful” is created by our unique perceptions of what we encounter in life (based on our own mix of personality traits, available resources, habitual thought patterns and more), a situation may be perceived as “stressful” by one person and merely “challenging” by someone else.

Simply put, one person’s stress trigger may not register as stressful to someone else. That said, certain situations tend to cause more stress in most people and can increase the risk of burnout. For example, when we find ourselves in situations where there are high demands on us; where we have little control and few choices; where we don’t feel equipped; where we may be harshly judged by others; and where consequences for failure are steep or unpredictable, we tend to get stressed.

Negative Effects of Stress

Stress becomes a problem when it operates out of its natural, intended purpose; that afterward when it occurs frequently and over a long period of time. The body will still produce hormones and experience the same effects of stress – rapid heartbeat, tightening muscles, fast breathing — no matter how often the stress occurs.

Therefore, if people experience stress nearly every day; their hearts, muscles, digestive and immune systems will endure negative consequences. People who experience chronic stress can suffer from high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heartburn, headaches, and viral illnesses. Stress can have very serious health consequences and therefore, needs to be managed effectively.

How to Manage Stress/Depression Effectively:

Stress management is having the ability to recognize situations that may cause stress, in order to use strategies to prevent the stress from occurring. Stress management also means setting up your life in a way that the opportunity for stress is unlikely to occur. The best approach to stress management is different from person to person, depending on the stressors that impact the individual and how each individual responds to various coping techniques. Thankfully, there are many known strategies that are widely used and very effective when it comes to managing stress.
