Stress Management Dimension of Well Being

Описание: Stress itself isn’t the problem—how long it stays in your body is.

Hey friends, I’m Dr. J, your nurse and board-certified health and wellness coach, here with your 1-minute positive psychology and happiness science tips to help improve your well-being.

Let’s get into it.

Stress management is a dimension of well-being that is uniquely interconnected with all the others. When dimensions like sleep, nutrition, movement, and social connection are supported, stress levels often decrease as a result.

That said, there are times—due to work demands, financial pressures, or life circumstances—when the source of stress can’t be removed. In these moments, learning how to cope and regulate stress becomes essential.

A report from the American Psychological Association highlights societal division and loneliness as significant contributors to stress in the United States. While this may not be surprising, it can serve as an important reminder that connection with others is a powerful buffer against stress.

I’ve included a helpful article from the APA with practical strategies for managing stress, along with additional stress management tips from the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, using the link in my bio.
