The psychological action “Ways to deal with stress” for teachers and students was held in the Higher College of InEU. Psychologist of college Kostyuk V.V. organised this action. The first stage was development and distribution of booklets on the theme.
Methods of relieving stress:
1) The rationalisation of the upcoming event method. To do this, you should imagine in detail the situation that awaits you: where this event will take place, what you will be wearing, what you will say. As a result, you will have a reduced level of uncertainty and an increased level of emotions.
2) The method of selective positive retrospection (useful for those who often doubt). Remember the situation in which you solved your problem and can be proud of yourself and your actions. Write down all the compliments you can give yourself. Now think about it, if you have already successfully solved the problem before, then you will cope with the present task just as successfully.
3) The method of selective negative retrospection. Write down all your failures and analyze their causes: lack of resources (if so, which ones), insufficient planning, etc. Try to take into account the identified errors when planning your actions in the future.
4) The mirror method. At the moment of excitement, note in what position your body is. Give him a pose of confidence.
5) The method of detailed visualization of the unsuccessful outcome of the situation (maximum amplification). Imagine various options for the outcome of events, up to the most unfavorable. Think about what you will do if the worst case scenario for you is realized.
