Stress management teaches techniques intended to equip a person with effective coping mechanisms for dealing with
stress.
Techniques of stress management include:
- self-understanding (e.g. Type A or B personality)
- self-management (e.g. becoming better organized)
- conflict resolution
- positive attitude
- self-talk
- breathing
- meditation
- exercise
- diet
- rest
Some techniques of time management help a person to control stress. For example:
- getting more organized and reducing clutter
- setting priorities can help reduce anxiety
- using a "to do" list of tasks that a person needs to complete can give a person a sense of control and accomplishment
Effective stress management is learning to set limits and say "No" to some demands that others make.
