Stress Management
(A Key to Happiness)

A New Section here at BeHappy101.com

Stress and anxiety are common issues for many people these days. And stress management is a key factor to living the happiest possible life (which is the goal of this whole BeHappy! system).

Everyone has different degrees and types of stress. And, everyone handles that stress differently ... feeling various levels of anxiety as a consequence. And, as you know if anxiety is an issue for you, it does not feel good!! It can reduce, or even destroy, your ability to be happy and can affect your relationships, and really, the quality of your entire life.

So, for everyone who wants to handle stress better, this section of BeHappy101.com will provide some basic, fundamental principles everyone should know.

This section of the website will grow over the next several months to contain loads of stress management concepts, strategies, and techniques you'll be able to choose from and use to keep stress under control - and keep you "cool and calm" in this complex world.

As a start, below is some of the basic information you need to know to grasp the "big picture" of stress management (check back soon for more specifics).

But first, make sure to claim your FREE Ebook package, which contains three valuable "happiness-building" resources, including the Ebooks, When Anxiety Stikes, BeHappy! at Work, and 1000 Quotes to Make You Happier.

SOME BASICS...

Life Stresses:
Psychologists have identified life's most stressful events, circumstances, and situations. If you want to assess the level of stress in your life, click here to access the list and "score yourself" on how much stress you are under in your life (and what to start doing about it).


Stress, Life Balance, and Happiness

There are many ways to reduce stress in your life, and throughout this website, you can find techniques to better manage that stress.

From a big picture perspective, though, it is critical to understand the relationship between stress, life balance, and happiness. I'll have lots of valuable information about this relationship over the next several months, but for now, here's a brief summary:

If your life is out of balance as in the graphic below, your level of stress will be higher, and you will be less happy.



If, on the other hand, your life is in balance as in the graphic below, then your stress level will be lower and you will be happier.



Two important points about this:
  1. Everything doesn't have to be a "10" (i.e. perfect) in your life. What is important is that everything be balanced (in other words, it's better for all the major areas of your life to be at a "7" - or "pretty good" - rather than some things being a "9" or "10" - or "excellent" - and other things being a "2" or "3" - or terrible).
  2. As your happiness increases through this process, it "feeds back" upon itself to create even better balance and less stress ... which increases happiness even more (so it's a self-perpetuating positive process).

There will be much more on Stress Management coming soon. Some of the topics you can expect are:
