Four tips for work stress

According to recent polls, employees in the UK work an average of 43.6 hours a week, and employees in the US work more than 50 hours a week.  

There is no escaping the need to work, so here are four quick tips to adopt a mindful approach to work stress (or resilience management, if you like!): 
​

1. When you wake up, reassure yourself that you are making a choice to go to work
2. Bring yourself into the present during every moment of the working day
3. When you interact with your colleagues, make eye contact and slow down a little to really acknowledge their existence
4. When you return home, become aware of every aspect of that journey.  Even if you have to rush, rush mindfully by remaining aware of the present moment of rushing

I hope this helps.
