STRESS

16/8/2020

 
​The stressors of life……the stressors in life
  • We stress about what will be,
  • what has happened,
  • what is happening now …
Stress can be quiet – internalising thoughts that outsiders cannot hear
Rational thoughts, irrational thoughts – which one?
  • That thought 1 minute ago – clearheaded?
  • The comment 2 hours ago – rational/irrational ?
Where has that thought come from?
  • Is a quiet person really just quiet?
  • Does a loud person really share it all?
What if … it had been daylight?
What if … everyone was in this one place together?
What if … a different choice was made?
What if … there were no ‘what if’s’ ?
Cause of stress
  • not being able to do anything…
  • wanting to do something…
  • change something…
  • If we accepted the circumstances, would we still experience stress?
“Not all stress is bad” – rational or irrational?
“Stress can be good” – true or false?
Managing stress – or masking stress?
  • Who can?
  • Who cannot?
  • Who thrives on it?
  • Who learns from it?
  • What does it look like for you?
Nobody’s STRESS = the other’s STRESS
