We can’t completely avoid stress, but what we can do is control how we manage it. This video takes you through the stress container model. It is a useful way to reflect on different causes of stress in your own life, and identify coping mechanisms to help manage different demands and pressures in a healthy way.
For further support on managing stress, visit the mental health charity Mind, the NHS website as well as Every Mind Matters.
