List and describe the steps of managing stress

What will be an ideal response?


Stress must first be recognized as real. This includes taking a realistic view of one's current life and knowing the signs of stress. Next, the specific stressor should be identified. Keeping a log of daily events or having another person observe might help in objective fact-finding. After identification of the stressor, a decision to work toward removing it or tolerating it should be made. Removing it might be an act of will or it might be impossible. Tolerating the stressor requires a different perspective, such as using the wasted time at the red light to change the radio station, or tidy-up the front seat, or to take some deep-relaxing breaths. Relaxation techniques can be used to assist in stressor removal and for recovering from the stress response. Regular use can lower trait anxiety, as well as state anxiety, that result from daily stress.
