Drawing on over 25 years of experience as a professional wellness provider
in the field of holistic wellness, education in the empowerment model of
counselling, as a support group facilitator, as a meditation teacher, and a
stress management coach: The purpose of the coaching sessions is
to assist you in making a positive movement toward what you want to
achieve.
Coaching is not meant to serve as a substitute for counseling or any other
mental health services or medical treatment.
What is Stress?
Essentially, stress can be positive or negative. Positive forms of stress, or
eustress, is usually related to desirable life events. Eustress provides the
means to express motivation in our personal and professional life.
Negative forms of stress, or distress, has negative implications and is often
synonymous with anxiety or nervous tensions.
Stress triggers can be of a physiological, psychological, social, or
environmental nature, and their impact can be physical, mental, emotional
and behavioural.
The important thing to understand is that the body cannot physically make
the distinction between eustress and distress. Both forms of stress, if
experienced over a period of time, can cause exhaustion.
As the body responds to physical or emotional stress , changes occur and
the sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for action
(as opposed to the parasympathetic nervous system which aids in the
relaxation response)
- a mechanism commonly known as the fight-or flight response. These
changes include increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, and
secretions of hormones such as Noradrenaline, Serotonin and Dopamine.
These responses occur whether the stress is positive or negative in nature.
The body’s fight-or-flight mechanism is absolutely essential if we are faced
with an emergency situation. Continual exposure, however, can deplete the
body’s vital organs of nutrients, adequate blood supply. Additionally,
continual exposure can compromise our ability to think clearly and
our sleep patterns can become unbalanced.
Over time, this lowers the body’s ability to cope with any additional forms of
stress and lowers the functions of our body’s immune system, which,
in turn, provides for ill-effects on our physical, emotional,
and spiritual health.
Why Stress Coaching?
On a daily basis, we are presented with a number of stresses and it can
often feel as though we don’t always have the support or resources
we need to cope effectively with these stresses.
If we experience stress overload, we can find ourselves thinking and
behaving in ways that are often not helpful for us.
Stress management coaching can help you develop strategies and provide
you with tools and perspectives to manage your stress.
