Stress Management Training

HRD Corp Programme Number : 10001555689

 

INTRODUCTION

Stress is the body’s nonspecific response to any demand – pleasant or unpleasant.

While people often define stress differently, common definitions include “physical, mental, or emotional strain or tension” and “a condition or feeling experienced when a person perceives that demands exceed their available personal and social resources.”

Most people associate stress with distress — the negative kind of stress that causes discomfort and harm. However, there is also a positive kind of stress called eustress, which helps improve performance. For example, the stress of preparing for a job interview can motivate focus and effort, while being absolutely overwhelmed at work can lead to decreased productivity.

Stress is not just an emotional experience; it involves biological, psychological, and social components, as explained by the biopsychosocial model:

Biological: How your body physically reacts to stress

Psychological: How your mind processes and manages stress

Social: How your relationships and environment influence your stress response

The negative response from distress can be understood in three phases:

Alarm Reaction: The initial shock caused by a stressor

Resistance: Efforts to cope with or adapt to a stressor

Exhaustion: Feeling overwhelmed or burnt out due to prolonged stress

Understanding how stress affects you — and the difference between eustress and distress — can help you turn stress into a tool for growth while minimizing its negative impact. This awareness empowers you to respond to challenges more effectively and improve both your well-being and overall performance.
