4 Ways to Start
Eliminating Unnecessary Anxiety
The quality of your personal
life matters. Often, your personal life is the counterpoint to your
professional one, creating opportunities for rest, relaxation,
self-exploration, and much more. Plus, as Flash Pack notes, strong,
healthy personal relationships don’t just make you happier;
they can help you live longer, too.
Frequently,
however, the quality of your personal and professional lives can be jeopardized
by feelings of anxiety. While feeling anxious is certainly a healthy response
in some instances, constant anxiety can be debilitating. Today, World Journal of
Case Reports & Clinical Images shares some suggestions to
help you reduce stress.
Toxic friendships can wreak
havoc on your personal life. Along with negatively impacting your mental
health, they might make forging healthy relationships harder. Your connection
with toxic people may cause others to forgo connecting with you because they
don’t want to deal with the toxic individuals. In some cases, your toxic
friends may even actually chase others away as a means of keeping you bound to
them.
Learning to
recognize toxic friendships is a critical starting point. That
way, you can figure out which relationships are doing more harm than good. Once
you’ve done that, you can plan to end the toxic friendship, allowing you to
approach the situation strategically and creating the space you need to forge
healthier connections.
Verywell Mind points out that
people often have a natural
tendency toward negativity bias. The issue is that dwelling on
adverse events is harmful to our mental health. Plus, it can damage our
relationships, causing people to act or react inappropriately or subject others
to a poor mood unnecessarily. If you want to improve your personal life, teach
yourself to focus on the positive. Begin by learning to recognize the negative
thoughts as they arise. Then, launch a dialogue with yourself mentally,
countering the point to release some of the harmful connotations around the
thought or learn to move forward.
Specific exercises or habits
can also help. A gratitude journal is a great start because it teaches you to
recognize the good things in your life. Taking pictures of anything that makes
you smile can also work, giving you a library of mood-boosting images. By
learning to overcome negativity bias, you can encourage yourself to become a
happier person. In turn, the quality of your relationships may improve, all
because your mood is better.
Getting physical exercise can
be a great way to boost your mood. Plus, working out can be a time to clear
your mind. Even taking a walk in your neighborhood can
help. Walking through local parks and through shopping areas can give you time
to think clearly while also getting your blood flowing.
While a single bad day on the
job is normal, if the weight of your job is constantly bringing you down,
that’s a red flag. A work-life
imbalance can harm your relationships and negatively impact
your health. Also, job dissatisfaction can cause your productivity, work
quality, or engagement to drop, damaging your professional reputation.
Essentially, staying in a job
you loathe isn’t a great idea. If job stress is causing focus issues,
demotivation, anxiety, irritability, insomnia, or other problems, it’s probably
time to move on to something new.
Instead of staying in a job
you don’t like, why not start your own business? If you’ve always wanted to
work for yourself and you have a good business idea, it may be time to strike
out on your own. One thing to consider early in starting your own business
is what
structure it’s going to have.
Often, a limited liability
company (LLC) can provide a good mix of benefits that appeal to business
owners, such as tax advantages and operational flexibility. Starting your
own LLC in
Wyoming can be stressful, too, but it is generally a more
positive stress, and it’s easy to do if you enlist the help of a formation
service to walk you through the steps. Since you control your schedule, pencil
in regular time to exercise and connect with supportive friends. And getting
enough sleep is a big stress reliever, too.
Many people want to do
everything they can to please others. While offering your support can positively
impact your personal life, always saying “yes” when you’re asked for help may
do harm. If you consistently agree to take something on even though it
overextends you, you’re adding to your stress. Plus, it can make you resent the
person asking for your help, thus damaging that relationship.
Instead, make sure to strike a
balance. If a task is reasonable to handle, by all means, agree. If you can’t
offer that much support but could do a bit of something, outline an alternative
way to help. But, if neither of those works, it’s okay to say “no” from time to
time. Those close to you will usually understand, particularly if you have a
history of being there when needed.
You may notice your anxiety
accumulating at home in the form of
negative energy. This can be marked by an increase in criticism,
blame, and clutter. To deal with it, first work to clean and declutter your
home where possible. This can allow positive energy to flow. It can also be
helpful to smudge with sage.
You don’t have to be beholden
to your anxiety. You can begin to turn the corner on it with just a few
behavioral changes. Learn to say no and set boundaries in your relationships.
And if you’re feeling overwhelmed by your job, look for some alternative options.
You may even find that developing your leadership skills help you to increase
confidence and reduce anxiety.
