Did you know that stress is a state of mind that was originally designed to protect our ancestors from dangerous situations (like a tiger)? Even though, the risk of meeting a tiger nowadays is close to nil, the brain will still trigger the same stress response to the modern day stressors: a job interview, a growing pile of papers on your desk, your children screaming around you while you are trying to finish an important report that your boss is waiting for, that driver who cuts you off, the news etc…. Ask yourself:
Awareness (of your triggers, your reactions, your early signs, your perceptions and beliefs) is the key that will help you manage your stress. And by practicing mindfulness you will develop this awareness and know the answers to the previous questions. You will be able to interrupt stress cycles before they go out of control. And finally you will be able to change your relationship with stress to get a quality of mind that is calmer. By Nadege ESTEBAN, Founder of Wise Mind.
