The Problem
• Chronic stress in the workplace can
increase your risk of having a heart
attack (Harvard Medical School)
• So, what can you do to cope with
workplace stress to avoid dying on
the job?
A. Affirm Your Personal Values
to Yourself
• Your body will release lower
levels of the stress hormone
cortisol and you’ll feel less
stressed out (Research by
University of California
Department of Psychology)
B. Don’t Be A Perfectionist
•Just give your best to
every situation
•Remind yourself often that
making mistakes will help
you to learn
C. Play A Video Game During
Lunch Break
• Workers who do this are able
to deal effectively with stress
in the workplace (Research by
University of Central Florida)
• It’ll help to calm your nerves
and make you feel relaxed
C. Play A Video Game During
Lunch Break
• Stress increases inflammation,
which in turn increases stress
• Playing a video game induces
positive emotions
• The result= reduced inflammation
and hence less stress
D. Remind Yourself Of Ways
You Handled Stress In The Past
• It’ll will boost your self-
confidence
• You’ll find it easier to calm
down and say, “Déjà vu! Once
I’ve done this before, this
should not be a big deal!”
E. Give The Right Label To Your
Workload
• Do you think, “Hmm! This is a tough one!”
when you are given a challenging job to do?
• It’ll only increase feelings of helplessness.
The result = more stress
• Rather, choose to think, “I can do this!”
• You’ll feel more capable and that’ll make it
easier for you to feel relaxed
F. Create A Humorous Scene In Your
Mind When Under Extreme Stress
•It’ll help to boost the
production of “feel
happy” hormones that
will help you to feel
relaxed
G. Share Challenges With Work
Colleagues
•Doing this will help you
to get fresh
perspectives you can
use to solve tough
problems
H. Focus On Things You Can Control
• Focusing on the negative aspects of
a situation will worsen your mental
stress (Thompson and Gaudreau,
2008)
• So avoid worrying about things you
can’t control and you’ll conserve
energy as a result
I. Do Deep Breathing Exercises
• Doing this will send signals to
your brain to calm down
• Consequently, you will
experience a feeling of
relaxation
J. Manage Your Time Well
• Proper time management is one
of the best ways one can deal
with stress (Macan et al., 1990)
• So avoid procrastinating
• Tackle a job as soon as it is given
K. Drink Lots Of Water
• Drinking water is effective for
reducing stress (Lewis and Webster,
2014)
• It lowers levels of cortisol in the
body to help one feel relaxed
L. Visualize A Calm Office Scene
• Close your eyes
• Breathe slowly
• Visualize a quiet, peaceful office
• “Hear” the air-conditioner
humming in the background, in
your mind’s eye
M. Massage Your Hands
• Massaging the palm of your
hand with the thumb of the
other hand can help to relieve
stress (Maria Hernandez,
University of Miami School of
Medicine)
N. Exercise
•This will make your
brain release “feel-
good” chemicals that
will make you feel
relaxed
O. Do Laughter Yoga
• Laugh continuously for a minute,
break for 10 seconds, repeat
• Impulses will be transmitted
from your facial muscles to
activate the calmness center in
your brain
P. Eat A Bagel
•It’ll will make your brain
release serotonin, a “feel
good” chemical that will
help you to feel relaxed
Q. Pray
• Remind yourself that the LORD IS IN
CONTROL
• And meditate on God’s help in the past
• Research done by Prof. Harold Koenig of
Duke University has shown prayer can
help people deal with stress
