Stress in professional life: Tips for resilience strengthening before burnout

Stress in the job is a real killer! Appointment stress, fear for the workplace and a tense working atmosphere burden many people to exhaustion. The numbers speak a clear language: the absent days due to psychological stress increase dramatically! As part of the "week of mental health", the Oberberg clinics show how they can contain these risks and strengthen their resilience. Let's do it!

blindly before stress - how the body suffers

stress is insidious! Often, those affected do not even recognize how much they harm themselves. Work under high pressure, paired with permanent "I can do it quickly" or "hold out everything", often leads to unmistakable warning signals. Sleep disorders, gastrointestinal problems or defiant neck and headache are the first symptoms that indicate that you go far beyond your own load limit. Even worse: If you don't pull the emergency brake in time, you risk serious illnesses such as burnout or depression.

preventive measures for a healthy working life

But don't be discouraged! There are effective measures to fight the stress. Here are some proven tips that help you better navigate through everyday work:

  1. set priorities: learn to organize tasks according to importance! Not everything has to be done immediately. Excessive demands can be avoided with realistic goals and a well thought -out schedule.
  2. Plan
  3. breaks: short time -outs are worth gold! Even if a short vacation is not possible, regular breaks can work wonders. Get up, breathe through - your concentration will thank you!
  4. No say: stop wanting to please everyone! A brave "no" protects against overload and is crucial for your health.
  5. mindfulness and relaxation: start to go through the day more carefully. Small mindfulness exercises, such as a silent walking meditation to work, can help you get your head free.
  6. Integrate movement: stress relief through movement is a classic! A quick walk in the lunch break or simple stretching exercises help to clarify your head and reduce stress.
  7. If there is no recovery despite all of these measures, it is high time to get medical advice! The Oberberg Clinics offer specialized programs for stress diagnostics - here you will be helped before serious illnesses threaten.
