We’ve all seen the headlines:
“How to get more done in less time!”
“How to get more hours out of your day!”
“Work smarter, not harder!”
And chances are, you’ve clicked on one or two…or ten headlines just like that.
Most of us find ourselves in a pickle: we want to get more done and we recognize that we can’t do it all. And that contributes to us feeling overwhelmed, overworked and stressed.
But recognizing that dilemma and doing something about it are two different things. And when we learn to prevent, reduce, and manage our stress, we function better – and we feel better.
Smart Tips: Managing Stress can help.
I’m Deborah Grayson Riegel, a professional speaker, consultant and coach. I am the author of the Amazon bestselling book "Go to Help: 31 Strategies to Offer, Ask for, and Accept Help" and "Overcoming Overthinking: 36 Ways to Tame Anxiety for Work, School, and Life".
I’ve taught at Wharton Business School, Duke’s Fuqua School of Business, Columbia Business School, and at the Beijing International MBA Program at Peking University. My clients are global, and have brand names you certainly know – and probably use every single day. I also write for Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Fast Company, Inc, and Psychology Today.
I have a BA in Psychology from The University of Michigan, a Masters in Social Work from Columbia University, and I am certified as a coach with the International Coach Federation, as well as in Mental Health First Aid.
And here’s what I know: you can feel better -- and you deserve to.
While this course is not a substitute for seeking help from a licensed mental health or medical professional, Smart Tips: Managing Stress can help you with:
Techniques to anticipate and identify your stress early so that you can deal with it when it's manageable
Shortcuts to change unhelpful mindsets (which then change your feelings and your behaviors)
Insights into how to transform your stress into something healthy and motivating (and even worth celebrating!)
Tips for turning off your catastrophic thinking
Ideas for "snack size" self care
Strategies to take advantage of a Mental Health Day
Ways to bounce back from feelings of rejection
Approaches for dealing with complex and overwhelming problems
Ideas for bouncing back from disappointments
Tools for sharing your stress with people who are "safe"
Skills for asking for the kind of help you need successfully
Practices for saying no without guilt
...and so much more!
Again, while this isn't a substitute for working with a licensed mental health or medical professional, taking this course can be one strategy to help you feel better, have more energy, change your mindset, and bounce back from setbacks with resilience. And it's something you can start NOW!
I hope you'll join me for this timely, engaging, and practical course!
Warmly,
Deborah Grayson Riegel, MSW
