STRESS TIPS AT WORK


If you dreaded returning to the daily grind after the holiday break, or if you’d just
like a little help reducing stress in the workplace, here are some wise, wonderful, and
very simple tips for working differently and with more joy.

1. Take your positive values to work. Often the values we associate with
conscious living--behaving in a kind, loving, and patient manner--are left behind
when we leave the house for work in the morning. While you’re still at home, call
your voice mailbox at work and leave a message that will help you start off on the
right foot when you listen to it at your desk. Perhaps you’ll want to remind yourself
of a different value to focus on each day, such as cooperation, humility, or gratitude.

2. Keep inspiration close at hand. Keep a copy of an inspirational article or a book
of inspirational quotes near your computer. Reach for it while you wait for files to
download or programs to boot up.

3. Work soft. We’re encouraged to work hard but too much effort can be
counterproductive. We may work too hard at the expense of our ability to think
clearly, to be in touch with our intuition, or to operate in a relaxed and efficient
manner. Each time the phone or fax machine rings, use it as a reminder to relax
your shoulders and breathe deeply. Soften your focus as you sink back into your
body.

4. Clear work clutter. Apply some principles of feng shui to your workstation. Take
a good look at the items that are in your field of vision. Clear the clutter from your
bulletin boards and desktop. Take down old pictures, cartoons, or anything else that
no longer supports your sense of prosperity and well-being.

5. Bring home to work. Work doesn’t necessarily end when you leave the office.
More and more people now bring work home. Why not also bring your home (your
mindful state) to work? Anytime you find yourself waiting for a meeting, a printout,
or a fax, drop into the present moment. Sit in your chair and become conscious of
your breathing. Feel your feet touching the floor, your thighs resting on the seat.
Make sure your back is supported and your shoulders are relaxed. Submerge as
deeply into this moment as you can. don’t plan or think. Just be.
