I know people who live on the edge of their seats. Hands always tapping, legs a bobbing, exuding a cloud that is distinctly grey.

Is this excitement radiating from their pores or is it pure terror? Well from my experience it goes hand in hand. When you do exciting or challenging things there is an element of risk and the knife edge of that can be very sharp. And with today’s busy lifestyle and workplaces the challenges can be incredibly difficult to handle.

Skills shortages, long hours, overdue bills, rising child care costs and a myriad of other problems litter the landscape.

In the normal course of our life, we encounter stress. Sometimes the levels are high and sometimes low.

Research shows that life without any stress can be just as bad for us as life with too much. We need stress to aid us to strive and achieve. However. . . when that stress level goes into hyperdrive it creates a haze in our mind, hindering our thought processes leading to a loss of productivity and general DIStress.

Stress management then becomes very important. Too many of us feel the effects of sickness and depression that are caused by not looking after our stress levels properly.

This week I challenge you to take a look at your life and do one thing that will bring about a tiny change for the better. I am going to start a new exercise plan. What will you do?
