1 Identify your stress triggers

The first step to managing stress is to recognize what triggers it. Stress triggers are situations, events, or people that cause you to feel anxious, frustrated, or overwhelmed. They can vary from person to person, and depend on your personality, expectations, and coping skills. To identify your stress triggers, you can keep a journal, track your mood, or reflect on your feelings. Once you know what causes you stress, you can try to avoid, reduce, or change those triggers, or prepare yourself to face them with more confidence and calmness.

Keeping a journal is a good idea to identify situational triggers. Frequent triggers in daily life can then be anticipated and strategies to counter a loss of control can be developed. Quick tip: When you feel your anger suddenly rising in a heated conversation (don′t forget to note this trigger in your journal later on), then don′t follow any impulse to fire off an angry sentence, but pause and slowly take two breaths, before saying anything. Try to really understand the other person′s perspective as well. This can prevent situations from escalating further.

2 Practice self-awareness and self-regulation

Self-awareness and self-regulation are two key components of emotional intelligence. Self-awareness means being aware of your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, and how they affect yourself and others. Self-regulation means being able to control your impulses, reactions, and responses, and choosing the most appropriate ones for the situation. To practice self-awareness and self-regulation, you can use techniques such as mindfulness, breathing exercises, positive affirmations, or meditation. These techniques can help you calm your nervous system, reduce your stress levels, and increase your emotional balance and clarity.

Self-awareness and self-regulation can be practiced in many situations of daily life, but especially in activities that remove us from our comfort zone, such as demanding sports. I often recommend traditional zhan zhuang standing meditation, which is just as relaxing as it is difficult. Interoceptive self-analysis and self-regulating techniques like posture corrections, breath corrections, keeping the mind quiet and negative emotions at bay play a big role in this practice.

3 Express your needs and feelings

Being able to communicate your needs and feelings effectively is an essential part of emotional intelligence. To do this, you must be honest, respectful, and assertive without being aggressive, passive, or passive-aggressive. You can express your needs and feelings by first identifying them, then using "I" statements and being specific and clear. Additionally, it is important to listen and empathize with the other person's needs and feelings. Lastly, negotiate and compromise to reach a win-win solution that satisfies both parties.

4 Seek support and feedback

No one can manage stress alone, so it's important to seek and accept support and feedback from others. Doing so can help you cope with stress, gain new insights, learn new skills, and improve your performance. To do this, reach out to your network - talk to your friends, family, colleagues, or mentors and share your challenges, concerns, or goals. Ask for advice, guidance, or help. Additionally, join a group or community of people who share your interests, values, or experiences - be it a club, a class, a team, or an online forum. Engage in activities that enrich you. Finally, if you feel overwhelmed or unable to cope with stress don't hesitate to seek professional help - contact a counselor, a therapist, a coach, or a health care provider who can offer specialized support and feedback.

5 Learn and grow

Finally, emotional intelligence is not a fixed trait, but a skill that can be learned and improved. Stress can be an opportunity to learn and grow, if you approach it with curiosity, openness, and resilience. To do so, you should reflect on your experiences, such as what happened, how you felt, what you did, and what you learned. Additionally, setting goals and action plans can help you decide what you want to achieve, improve, or change. Break down these goals into specific steps that are measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Monitor your progress and adjust your plans as needed. Moreover, don't settle for your comfort zone; seek new challenges and opportunities by trying new things and taking risks. Learn from any mistakes or failures you experience and celebrate any successes or feedback you receive.
