Holiday Harmony

S[NO]w More Stress

The holidays bring us a great deal of magic and wonder. Though with all the good, it is also – unfortunately- a time of the year that becomes extra stressful for many of us.

It is typically not possible to let our work slowdown in the weeks just before the holidays. There are so many critical year end tasks to complete and those business activities often conflict with our personal need to prepare and attend events and celebrations with our family and friends.

This month is ripe for improved self-awareness and self-management. Nowhere more so than concerning our stress behaviors – whether the source of that stress is work, the holidays or a combination.

It is possible for you to improve your resiliency to stress.

Resiliency is the power or ability to return to the original form, position, etc., after being bent, compressed, or stretched. I think we all feel somewhat ’bent, compressed and stretched’ during the year end and holiday season.

Build stress ‘resiliency’ by using the Succeed Under Pressure report in imapMyTeam®

The Succeed Under Pressure report is descriptive and prescriptive. It helps you understand exactly what is making you feel stressed and a quick tip on how to rebound.  Successfully managing our stress behaviors is a path to Holiday Harmony and a true gift to ourselves.
