Do you find it difficult to manage and balance life due to excessive stress or are you responsible for supporting employees to manage stress? According to American Psychologist Richard Lazarus "stress can be thought of as resulting from an imbalance between demands and resources" or "can occur when pressure exceeds one's perceived ability to cope”. The Stress Management Society U.K. states that “s
tress happens when we feel that we can't cope with pressure. This pressure comes in many shapes and forms and triggers physiological responses". The changes that the Stress Management Society talks about can be described as the fight/flight response, a hard-wired reaction to perceived threats to our survival. When survival had meant facing immediate and real threats such as an earthquake or fire, our reaction saves lives. When we are activating this state and accumulating stress we create mental, emotional and physical imbalance. The American Institute of Stress attributes up to 90% of visits to Health Care Providers to stress. A number of my clients professions included accountants, lawyers, HR, CEO's, Teachers, Nurses, Doctors, Architects, Directors. I also work with Parents and Children to transform overwhelm, pressure, stress, worry, anxiety and anger. Over a six week period clients learn to take charge of their work/life balance. The "Revitalise You" program supports people to live more in high performance, stress free with optimal thinking i.e. flexibility, objectivity, reasoning, problem solving, decision making, creativity, focus and memory recall.
