What is stress?
Stress is the "wear and tear" our bodies
experience as we adjust to our continually changing environment; it has physical
and emotional effects on us and can create positive or negative feelings. As a
positive influence, stress can help compel us to action; it can result in a new
awareness and an exciting new perspective. As a negative influence, it can
result in feelings of distrust, rejection, anger, and depression, which in turn
can lead to health problems such as headaches, upset stomach, rashes, insomnia,
ulcers, high blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. With the death of a
loved one, the birth of a child, a job promotion, or a new relationship, we
experience stress as we readjust our lives. In so adjusting to different
circumstances, stress will help or hinder us depending on how we react to it.
Excessive negative stress takes it's toll on many people who do not have a
support system in place to deal with it. The adage "Time heals everything"
does not take into account the damage this type of stress can cause in a work
environment.
Our stress management program deals with the causes of stress rather than the
symptoms. In this program we teach the skills to cast out unwanted
feelings and sensations and focus attention on creative skills. We teach
people how to shut off everyday thinking at the end of the day and unwind and
enjoy their home time.
Our highly trained NLP practitioners and therapists can provide one-on-one
consultations or a class room courses on dealing with workplace stress.
Please contact us with your needs and we can discuss the best option for your
company.
