- Activity and relaxation go hand in hand
To utilize stress sensibly, you should maintain a balance between alternating states of peak action readiness and relaxation. Therefore take care to give yourself some time to relax after a stressful period. Relaxation techniques such as autogenic training, yoga, breathing techniques, and progressive muscle relaxation help you to make the most of your breaks. Lunch breaks or one hour in the evening then provides enough time to replenish your body and mind.
- Allow yourself to make mistakes
Nobody is perfect and does everything right. Many people put themselves under enormous pressure - not only at work. You should learn to live with your weaknesses because they are only human. Try to say no sometimes and delegate tasks to others. Missing an appointment is not the end of the world or a threat to your career. Certain things like ironing your underwear or a few weeds in your garden are surely not as important as your health, well-being and vitality. So do not try to be perfect, face conflicts openly, and take necessary time off to relax and regain your mental and physical strength.
- Nutritional requirements during stressful periods
If perfect performance and continuous concentration are expected from you in your job and your private life, you need more nutrients in your diet. Especially if you have to manage with little sleep and are suffering from stress, mentally as well as physically.
A well-suited and balanced nutritional product such as Pharmaton®Vitality is highly efficient as a supplement to your daily diet. Besides important vitamins, minerals and trace elements, they contain the standardized Ginseng G115®extract. This special ingredient protects your body from exhaustion, strengthens immune resistance and performance, and increases brain metabolism and concentration capabilities.
In addition to that you should try to maintain a healthy, balanced diet despite the time pressure. Snack on fruit instead on chocolate,
avoid fast food, and high-fat meals.
