Once we understand something we are more in control of it.
This is very true about stress and negative emotion whether it’s at work, home, or elsewhere the mind is using systems to try and help – but left run riot it can feel very bad and hold us back.
Here’s an explanation of the model at work in the brain and some advice to start retaking control.
Hope it helps.
Have a great week,

Stress, poor communication, interpersonal misunderstandings and frustration all arise from real world triggers. These triggers can be reduced.
Avoid feelings of bulling – consistent miscommunication can have people feeling picked on. Then conflict can grow swiftly and eat time and energy from all involved.
Seeing the powerful psychological factors at work lets us reduce them with simple, effective tools targeting the real cause not just the symptoms.
When things don’t work smoothly it generates conflict, resulting in people trying less and working at a lower ‘less-hassle’ level & making more mistakes.
As we approach deadlines there is more stress, when that stress is not managed we are not performing at our best when it’s most important.
Using evidence supported techniques we can directly and immediately reduce stress, teach staff to minimize stress building triggers, and keep stress low.
The true cost of stress can be easy to calculate. Loss of earnings, missed deadlines, and poor retention of key staff are easy to see. The health impact can be severe but overlooked.
Over pressured minds look for what's wrong, easily leading to a ‘blame culture’ where people look to avoid criticism rather than solving the problem. An unhappy workplace performs poorly where distraction, conflict, and absenteeism all increase.
The mind and body systems that create these feelings and problems are well understood and there is a lot we can do very quickly to put you in control of them again.
