Stressed Out At Work?

We all know the negative effects of stress. The stress response was never meant to kill us! It is to help boost the body and mind into enhanced functioning, to help us grow and meet the demands we face. According to Alia Crum, assistant professor of psychology at Stanford University, here are 3 ways on how to use stress:

Step One: See It
The first step to transforming your response to stress is to “see” your stress. Rather than denying it, or dwelling upon it, we recommend simply naming or labeling the stress you are facing. For example, you might simply say to yourself: “I’m stressed about my son failing school.”

Step Two: Own It
The key to “owning” your stress is to recognize that we tend to stress more, and more intensely, about things that matter to us. Stress shows us that we care; that the stakes matter.

Step Three: Use It
Simply reframing your response to stress as something that is beneficial can be helpful. Harvard Business School professor Alison Wood Brooks has shown how reframing anxiety as excitement can improve performance on tasks such as negotiating and giving an important speech.
