Here I will begin with something that happened many many years ago. It was when I attended my college in 1994 in Princeton.
When I saw him for the first time in the Class Room, I was a bit surprised. How could this sort of a human being who is typical of his Eastern reigns, be our “Stress Management” Professor? His stiff face seemed incapable of generating any smile! Lines appeared on his forehead, even before he was making efforts to start his career in our College with his first lecture on “Stress Management.” I was a bit anxious and eager to enjoy his maiden performance!
I thought he would start with a big platitude on the subject of stress and how to manage it and all that! By quoting definitions and mentioning the names of famous psychologists.
He didn’t do that.
It was very interesting how he propagated the subject of stress management for 21 century youth. I am reproducing his one-shot lecture on stress management. It helped me and it might help you as well.
“First off, I will give you example of my grandma- how she manages the stress! Curry for the night is her worry for the morning…and look, how nicely she carries the burden of stress and its management. She manages stress in her typical style, every day! You go by her words, think that she is stressed! But how crafty she is, in the domestic front!”
Stress management is a technique. It is winning over any tough situation, with the charm of your personality and deft handling of the situation. It is about meeting the challenges. Convert defeat into a victory!
Causes of stress may be many; for its management, no hard and fast rules can be prescribed. You have to deal with the stress, as per the demands of time and situation.
The reasons for stress may be:
1. Danger
2. Threat
3. Good or bad news
4. Illness
5. Perceptible changes in one’s identification with the self
6. Any other strong external or internal stimuli
How to manage the stress?
Before you think about managing the stress, you need to understand the bottom line of your stress. Its root cause! Its real cause! Only then you can think about the management of stress. For public consumption, you can project any cause, but you know what is really wrong with you. There are several ancillary tools to assist you in stress management.
These hints can help you in stress management:
1. Organize yourself in a methodical manner.
2. Develop a confidence, that you possess grit for conflict resolution.
3. Let your approach be positive.
4. Auto-suggestion- Talk to yourself.
5. Do pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation.
6. Do light exercises regularly.
7. Do not over-exert.
8. Keep a diet control. What you eat and how you eat is important!
In the end, what matters in stress management, is your strong will power. Have a will to outgrow the stress, and grow your will!
