One Source EAP Connections – October 2021
I envy the people that can keep their calm when everything around them is in chaos. They deal with stressful situations one at a time and put each behind them before moving on to the next.
Many of us dwell on stress after the stressor ends. It gnaws at us, then compounds when another stress-filled event comes along.
There are so many benefits to remaining calm, including feeling more in control and enjoying better overall health. When you’re calm, you can “hear yourself think” and communicate more clearly. This helps calm those around you – and that really is a superpower!
The good news is that remaining calm is a skill that can be learned. There are many techniques including breathing, meditation and positive self talk that can help us more effectively and calmly deal with stress. Watch the Calm Collection to learn how to make “Calm” your superpower.
You can also use your confidential EAP benefit for one-on-one assistance regaining calm. Just call the Access Center 24/7/365 at (800) 300-0628.
