What is stress?
Stress can be described as an emotional or mental state caused by adverse or demanding life events or situations. It affects everyone and can impact all areas of our lives, including detrimental effects on our mental and physical health. Statistics from the HSE suggest that there were almost 10 million working days lost due to work-related stress in the UK, which costs the economy almost £5.5 billion.
How do you increase your stress awareness?
Before we can practice managing stress, it’s important to explore some of the causes of stress, something which this Stress Awareness course aims to do. Stress is something that affects all of us. However the causes, impact and level of distress is different for everyone. It is important to recognise that individuals will have different reactions and interpretations of stressful situations, and as such this course aims to explore some of the factors involved in this process, such as emotional, physical, behavioural and cognitive responses.
It is also important to be able to recognise some of the most common causes of stress, to help support and develop the wellbeing of your employees and those around you. This course explores ways in which you can analyse and assess work-related stress and how you and other employees can identify and manage it. The Stress Awareness online course provides techniques and guidance on how to relieve and deal with stress, with ideas such as yoga, positive thinking and deep breathing. Not only is it important to deal with stress when it arises, but also to build and maintain a healthy lifestyle, and the link between this and managing stress is also discussed. Furthermore, information and guidance on how to gain more advice and support is provided as part of this training.
