The level of stress is rising. The types of stress are
ever on increase. Grace, the mad race for secular comforts is the
outcome of the materialistic civilization. Stress has become like a
cobweb. You are caught into it, you want to come out of it, but do not
know how to go about it.
If you have a stress
sharing partner around you, may be your spouse, your best friend, a
trusted relative, an understanding neighbor, they become your stress
management teachers. They may share their experiences with you or
silently listen to you. That will unburden your mind, and help you
become a level-headed personality again.
At different levels of
life, many kinds of stress bother you. Students for example, find it
difficult to get over the stress of studies and periodic examinations.
The load of homework gives them a lot of stress. Therefore, efforts have
been made to identify the areas of stress and find out suitable remedies
to meet them. Study done under stress is not likely to fructify; study
done under an encouraging atmosphere makes the student a cheerful
personality, and he will remember with fondness his student life, as he
advances into the mainstream of life.
These days, as stress
management has become a part and parcel of any professional course-
small or big, certain courses have also been devised for the same. It is
assumed that stress would be a part of any career, be it medical,
engineering, computer or defense services. Stress management courses are
taught even at the high school level to make the students tough and
competitive.
The stress management teachers teach the
fundamentals of stress. What it is and how to control it. An operational
definition is taught. “When negative tendencies get an upper hand in
your personality, you are under stress. When positive tendencies call
the shots, you are naturally happy.” There are several theories of
stress. To quote a few: Person, Environmental Fit Model, Demand, Control
Model, Effort, Reward Model and Fight, and Flight Model.
Sources
of stress are taught in detail by the stress management teachers. The
subjects mostly covered in this area are, Mind-Body Dichotomy, Psycho
Cybermetics and Stress, Areas of Freedom, Job Content, Work
Organization, Lack of Feed Back and Social Isolation.
Stress
Management teachers can only give you indications and guidelines in
theory. Your stress is your property- you have to liquidate it well in
time with your grit and will power!
