As a business owner when it comes to managing your stress, what is your biggest challenge right now?
Whether it is short-term or long-term, the impact of stress can be devastating, not just for you but also for your business and family.
I can help you with that very simply and very effectively with a very simple structure, by investing in you and in turn your business.You can learn to take charge of your reaction to life events.
Stress is a normal human response to any incident that upsets the balance of your life..... so you cannot remove stress from your life.
What you can do however, is learn to manage your stress and I can help you to do that.
As a business owner what impact does stress and anxiety have on you your business and your family?
Does it:
Give you disturbed sleep
Loss of motivation
Anger or irritable
Waking up tired
Not energised
Affect your cognitive thinking
Loss of hope
For most people this then results in negative coping strategies of:
Drinking too much
Disassociating
Drifting off to sleep in the day
Heart palpitations
Procrastination
Eating too much/little
Lack of sex drive
I work with business owners to help them identify the changes they can make to move you from a place of survival, to a place of feeling in control with pleasure and thrill in their business and personal lives.
What we achieve is:
Wake early circadian rhythm in sync
Feeling energised
Work life balance aligned
Physical & Mental Health good
Enriched relationships
Self-Care
Have a future plan
When you are a small to medium sized business, you are the business……. in order for you to fully function in the business you need to be in a place of top performance, with your physical and Mental Health.
Your stress might be over in a few hours as a work overload is resolved, or it might build for months, as your relationship starts to fall apart. Typical mental and emotional indicators of stress are inability to concentrate, poor judgment, general anxiety, irritability, and a sense of isolation. There are also physical symptoms such as chest pain, eating problems, difficulty sleeping, and abuse of alcohol or drugs for relaxation. If you learn how to manage your stress, there are long-term benefits for you, your family, and your colleagues at work. I can help you achieve that goal in a very short space of time, following a very simple process.
If you broke your leg you would get a specialist to put it in a cast for you, if you have poor Mental Health and are feeling stressed why would you not get a professional to help you mend the broken pieces.
