In 2020, the negative impact of stress can be felt in all areas of our lives. There is a profound and challenging struggle in understanding what is driving our stress, what its real impacts are, and ways we can manage our stress for our well-being. Having complementary daily strategies in place to manage and actively work to minimise stress is key to caring for your health in a holistic way that nurtures your long-term well-being.

Why Is A Holistic Approach Necessary For Stress Management?

Holistic steps play a significant role in approaching a health issue like stress because the triggers are genuinely multifaceted. Additionally, the impacts are far-reaching therefore dynamic methodologies can help you to work towards a healthier life.

In fact, HealthKnowledge.org.uk says that, “Mental health and physical health are inextricably linked, with evidence for a strong relationship between the two accumulating over recent decades and challenging the historical notion of mind-body duality.” They go further to say that public mental health has been recognised as integral to public health, therefore emphasising the New Economics Foundation’s five evidence-based actions individuals can take for their well-being: connect, be active, take notice, keep learning, and give.

A comprehensive combination of mindfulness, rest, rejuvenation, prioritising your physical health through diet and exercise, specialist and community support, and lifestyle planning are a starting point for you to approach handling stress as a well-being strategy rather than a stress strategy alone.
