Stress Management
As a wellness professional, you have lots of knowledge about effectively managing stress. But many times translating that knowledge into a product or service is challenging. Without an outlet, those great skills are left untapped.
One way to increase the value of your work, and make it more tangible to others, is to use an assessment. An assessment is simply a questionnaire that people fill out. An individualized report is generated from the answers, providing specific feedback and suggestions for improvement.
One assessment I use in my practice is the Coping & Stress Profile by Inscape Publishing. I use this assessment in my corporate training work, and you could also use it for one-on-one wellness sessions, helping others increase awareness about managing stress.
Discover the Power of Relationships
Other stress management approaches focus primarily on using personal coping resources such as exercise, nutrition, and building self-esteem to deal with stress. The Coping & Stress Profile focuses on relationship coping resources as the most effective and consistent response to stressors identified in all four life areas.
Learn Four Key Coping Resources
Four key relationship coping resources are:
- Problem-Solving – the ability to deal directly with, not avoid, the problems you face and make positive changes to resolve them
- Communication – the ability to honestly share thoughts and feelings with others to promote mutual understanding
- Closeness – a comfort level with others and the ability to connect with people in your environment
- Flexibility – an openness and ability to respond to change
