Do you experience a gut-wrenching feeling at the tail end of your weekends? You may know the sensation – Once the magic of a Friday after-work happy hour has come and gone, you tend to become overwhelmed by a constant state of dread? The thought of returning to a stressful workplace is a paralyzing prospect for millions of people. This phenomenon is most commonly referred to as the “Sunday Scaries” and it is characterized as a crippling anxiety that prohibits you from fully enjoying your days off in anticipation of the week ahead. Not everyone struggles with this affliction but for those who do, you know all too well the despair it places on your life. When you are confronted with pre-work week jitters, there are many things that can help to ease anxiety.
How to ease anxiety and fend off Pre-Work Week stress? Ask our Psychics and/or:
- Try Natural Remedies –
- Take a bath. One groundbreaking study found that soaking in a hot bath for an hour or more had similar benefits of going on a 30-minute walk.
- If you prefer showers, then maybe try to go for a short walk in nature to reconnect with yourself and to quiet your thoughts.
- Use essential oils. Lavender, Rose, and Ylang Ylang are known to ease anxiety and restore calm. Try putting a little bit of one in your diffuser each Sunday to help quell your anxious feelings.
- Use Stress to Your Advantage – In her TEDtalk, world-known speaker Kelly McGonigal proposes that anxiety means you care about something enough to worry about it. Use the energy that this stress gives your body to begin working smarter. The increased heart rate and adrenaline that stress give you is likely the opposite effect of your daily fatigue. Channel these bodily reactions and turn them into something powerful. For example, perhaps you get nervous before the day of your work presentations. Instead of panicking try instead to convert this stress to give you an energizing and engaging speech.
- Ease Anxiety – Communicate Your Feelings – if you continually have stress at work, you should probably be talking to someone about how you feel. This can be a friend or really anyone who you trust. They might even offer perspective about your work environment. Many of our advisors on Oranum.com are experienced in dealing with matters related to work.
