STRESS MANAGEMENT ONBOARD – STRATEGY PREVENTION AND MORE

The key to managing stress is being aware of your choices and making the right ones.

s-l300

You cannot control all the events that bring stress to your life, but you can choose healthy ways to respond to them. You can learn to connect with your inner strength and to care for yourself in ways that prevent stress and that neutralize the negative effects of stress that could not be avoided.

Managing stress well consists in recognizing at any moment and in any situation that you do have a choice. You can respond to adversity like a reptile (snapping, running, or freezing), or you can respond creatively and humanely in a way that works for yourself and those around you. Using the intelligence of your heart and humor can ensure that you will respond in the latter manner. Stress management is the art of learning to manage your inner world. The results help make a better world.
