We used to call it stress management, and decades ago I went into Hewlett Packard and trained people in practical ways they could manage their "stress". These days, there's a lot of attention placed on becoming more resilient, to see the work place as a place to thrive. However, the number of people coming to my practice with chronic mental and physical health problems is rising. The reality that everyone wants to discuss their mental health problems at work is a fallacy. Employees still work that indicating they have mental health problems, or chronic physical health problems, will impede their career. This episode is just a reminder that whatever name we call it by, we are all subject to the responses and reactions of our nervous system, which happens before we can detect it At the end I introduce you to one principle that I learned and has had a powerful effect on my health. Maybe you can listen to the end and discover what it is. So what would it be like for you to actually be able to start to detect much more easily and much more quickly when life is getting to you when life is making you feel stressed? Contact me if you have health problems and want to have some help.
