Your weekends and vacations always seem too short. You may feel a knot in your stomach when you return to work, but you don't understand how to interpret these signs. But do you know the three levels of stress?
Logical Stress
Returning to work forces you to return to your daily routine: the alarm clock ringing, experienced as an aggression, restrictive schedules, reunions with certain colleagues, or obligations that bore you. Indeed, the break of the weekend or vacation offered you an illusion of freedom.
Solution: For a smooth return, focus on the colleagues you appreciate. Change your alarm sound (to the sound of the ocean or birds). Walk, bike, or rollerblade part of your commute if you have the opportunity. Enjoy your free time. Spring is coming. Observe nature transforming. Break the daily routine with surprises and special moments with your partner. You will quickly find your smile again.
Revealing Stress
The break from work offered by vacations or weekends provides the necessary perspective to reveal what is good for you. Listen to your body and mind. Maybe having your own business doesn't suit you (anymore). There may be several reasons for this:
• You don't feel up to it.
You're not sure you can handle your responsibilities. Maybe you are in a transition phase, a learning phase.
Solution: Your insecurity is the product of your imagination. Just believe in yourself and your professional skills, and you will find your bearings!
• You don't feel in your place.
You are deadly bored. You feel like you are suffocating in increasingly toxic air.
Solution: Banish the limiting belief: "I have no choice." It's true that sometimes to find serenity, one separates from something that seems essential, like job security, a familiar environment...
Pathological Stress
This break is always a moment of happiness followed by anxiety, and it has always been this way. It started in school and then in the professional world. Maybe the system simply doesn't suit you. Talk to your loved ones. A shared anxiety is a defused anxiety!
Solution: If your return-to-work anxiety is revealing or pathological stress, coaching can help you review your goals and achieve them faster.
As LAO TSEU so rightly said: "Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life."
