Surviving your work days
- Don't skip breakfast or lunch.
- Learn to recognize symptoms of stress (anxiety, headache, anger) so you can nip it in the bud.
- Make some friends/allies at work.
- Talk about your stress, to somebody.
- Pay attention to your breathing; slow it down, deepen it.
- Post family photos (or other images that make you happy) in your workspace.
- Focus on the now (i.e., don't agonize over the past, don't fret over the future).
- Take some alone time.
- Find harmless ways to vent; e.g., cry, or punch a pillow.
- Stop trying to multitask.
Good luck guys....
