Stress is usually brought on by anxiety and when this particular
condition is addressed, it is possible to avoid building up the stress
levels within the daily functions of the individual. Addressing the
underlying causes of the stress, would better help the individual deal
or change the circumstances that cause the stress, and thereby
learning to comfortably adapt and cope with work place situations.
The following are some recommendations on how to manage stress at
work effectively:

At Work

 Giving up coffee – most people are really unaware of the effect coffee has
on the body and mind systems. Coffee helps to further elevate any
conditions into hyper activity thus creating the ideal combination that
further enhances any stressful circumstances. The coffee flows into the
blood and causes the adrenaline to be overly stimulated thus putting the
brain into overdrive.

 Being better organized – this is also another popular advice given to most
stress filled individuals. The idea of being organized does not seem to have
any clear positive contributions to the individual thus the inability to
incorporate this very beneficial trait into the daily schedule. Learning the
benefits of being organized will help the stressed out individual to better
appreciate its positive contributing factors, and when this is well adapted
as a daily practice, the quality of life would definitely be much better.

 Taking short breaks to stretch and relax the mind periodically will also
help to keep stress under control. Whenever the individual feels a little
pressured, taking a few minutes to unwind and refocused after being
energized will be helpful. Getting some fresh air will also work wonders on
the body and mind.

 Stopping for lunch and tea breaks is also very important to keep the mind
off work for a little while. Enjoying the break while the body goes through
the replenishing of nutrients to the body is a good idea.
