Whether it's after a long vacation or after a normal weekend, each of us should learn to give ourselves appropriate buffer space and not let ourselves suddenly become too tired, otherwise there will be a sudden inability to adapt. Therefore, a very important way to regulate pressure is not to accumulate too much pressure at ordinary times, and release it in a timely manner when necessary.
Although you have suddenly switched from rest mode to work mode before, you have various maladjustments, such as "I can't lift my spirits and feel depressed at work", "I'm super lazy and don't want to do anything", "I don't even want to eat", "I feel sleepy and my skin is also poor"... After a week of "crazy attacks" on various symptoms of post holiday syndrome, I believe you should also calm down!
Post holiday syndrome often refers to various physiological manifestations of people after a big holiday, such as feeling tired, unable to lift their spirits, low work efficiency, and even accompanied by unexplained nausea, dizziness, intestinal reactions, anorexia nervosa, anxiety, and neurasthenia within two to three days after the holiday. Every time after a long holiday or Golden Week, many people experience similar post holiday syndrome because their lifestyle during the holiday period differs significantly from that of normal days, and they do not pay attention to mental health care and self regulation after the holiday. In order not to "repeat the mistakes", let's "reflect" together today. What ways can we take to "take precautions" to help alleviate or avoid these worries?
"Stress" should be gradually adjusted after the holiday
In fact, from a psychological perspective, when we are in a highly stressful working state, the brain center will establish a highly stressful mode of thinking and operation. "If you suddenly stop from a state of high tension, the original psychological pattern of adapting to the tense rhythm will suddenly lose its object and feel uncomfortable in the face of a relaxed environment.".
"Post holiday syndrome actually reflects a person's adaptation problem, and if you want to get rid of it, you must find ways to transition over." When you just switch from vacation mode to work mode, your status will definitely be poor. You can first arrange for some lighter tasks, and gradually increase the intensity of your work as you enter the work mode. At the same time, you can also help recover by doing more exercise, listening to music, and adjusting your diet.
In addition, whether it's after a long vacation or after a normal weekend, you should learn to give yourself an appropriate buffer space, and don't let yourself suddenly become too tired, otherwise there will be a sudden inability to adapt.
Release the pressure in time Don't hold it back
Modern people are facing increasing pressure, but there is a common problem: Many people are accustomed to accumulating pressure and then waiting until the holidays to completely release it. This "planned and unified way of releasing stress" is actually an important reason for the large psychological gap after a long vacation. Moreover, stress is often accumulated, and this "emotional toxin" will slowly "devour" your physical and mental health. Even when the holiday season comes, many people often release too much or too much, which is unhealthy.
"So a very important way to regulate stress is not to accumulate too much pressure during normal times, and to release it in a timely manner. Even if it's just a little time after work or a weekend, you should learn to let yourself relax and shake off stress in a timely manner." Psychologists recommend.
Distinguish between work and life
Zhu Huaimin also shared his experience as a psychologist: we solve various psychological and mental problems. In this process, although there will be many private content related to the other party, the relationship between the psychologist and the client is an absolute working relationship, without any interest relationship, and will never bring this relationship into life. Otherwise, it will affect the evaluation of the client, violate professional ethics, and even bring some unnecessary impact on your own life and even mental health.
In fact, this is also a good way of psychological stress relief, good at handling the boundaries between work and life, otherwise life and work stress mix together, life is not happy, and work has troubles, which can only lead to a vicious circle.
In this highly competitive society, professionals must be good at reducing stress, otherwise excessive stress without understanding how to relieve it can easily damage health and cause disease. Here, 39 editors introduce several simple and easy to operate decompression methods that are suitable for professionals.
1. Branching method
Please list the pressures in life, one, two, three, four... Once you write them down, you will be astonished to find that as long as you "break through each one," these so-called pressures can gradually be resolved.
2. Use words and imagination to relax
Through imagination, train your mind to "wander", such as "under the blue sky and white clouds, sitting on a boat and playing with your friends on the rippling sea.". Take a short time to relax and rest, allowing yourself to have a spiritual rest. You will feel peaceful, peaceful, and peaceful.
3. Put on your favorite old clothes
Put on a pair of old pants that you love at ordinary times, and then put on a loose shirt. Your psychological pressure will unknowingly ease. Because wearing clothes for a long time can remind people of their feelings in a particular time and space, and people's emotions also rise for it.
4. Cry whenever you want to
Medical psychologists believe that crying can relieve stress. Psychologists have measured blood pressure in some adults, and 87% of those with normal blood pressure have reported occasional crying, while those with high blood pressure mostly say they never cry. It seems that letting emotions express themselves is much more beneficial than burying them deep in the heart.
5. Embrace the Big Tree
In some parks in Australia, many people hug big trees every morning. This is a method they use to relieve psychological stress. It is said that hugging a big tree can release the happiness hormone in the body, making it refreshing.
6. Watch horror movies
Experts in the UK suggest that people feel pressure at work because of their sense of responsibility for their work. At this point, what they need is encouragement, and it is to cheer up. So instead of using relaxation techniques to overcome stress, it's better to motivate yourself to face stressful situations, such as going to a horror movie.
