To cope with stress from the beginning of the work week, it is important to understand at what point this stress begins.
Psychologist at DocMed and DocDeti clinics Nikita Prilepsky explained to Health Mail.ru how to reduce stress from the first working day.
For many people, Monday discomfort begins as early as Sunday, while for others it only appears during the day on Monday. In both cases, it is important to understand what things trigger stress.
Observation is the first key to change. In the first case, it is important to start noticing those thoughts that make you uncomfortable. Redirect your attention from thinking about tomorrow in the present moment to our physical sensations.
And after that, continue to do the things you were doing before these thoughts.
Mindfulness practices can help you. This will reduce stress and bring back the joy of life.
If your stress manifests itself as the second option described above, then it is worth observing which drops overwhelm the cup of inner patience. Depending on the cause, either take breaks for yourself to recharge and distract yourself, or understand what activity is especially stressful for you and, if possible, minimize it.
In any case, if you notice pronounced patterns or the inability to cope with stress on your own, it is better to contact a psychologist.
