With quarantine guidelines and regulations loosening their grip, many companies are putting plans in place to open their doors once more. This could mean that your return to work is just around the corner, and for those who suffer from anxiety or excess worry, this can be a frightening time. So how do you reduce anxiety in the workplace?
There are so many uncertainties related to Covid-19 with regards to your health and safety, however, there are certain things which can be done to help reduce your anxieties and allow for a calm and collected return to work, despite the current global situation. Read on to uncover some of the best advice you can implement today.
Taking a break from the media is one of the best things that you can do to stay focused on your own needs when heading back to work, as the stories detailed online can easily stir up thoughts of stress and worry. It’s unlikely that positive stories will receive heavy coverage, so letting go of the negativity and angst posted on the internet will reduce distractions and worry at the same time.
Both safe zones and danger zones will exist in every location, so identifying these spaces will be of real benefit for anxiety sufferers returning to work. Having a set safe zone will allow you to gain the opportunity to rebalance and recentre your mind, which is ideal in times of high stress.
It’s vital to make an effort to stay connected with your friends and loved ones so that you can discuss how you are feeling. Remember, we’re all in this pandemic together.
