4 Types of Stress: How To Manage Each One | Mo Gawdat & Alice Law
Podcast
Stress is something we all deal with, but did you know that it affects us in four different ways? Stress can impact us mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually, and in this episode we look into all four modalities and how to recognise them.
Mo Gawdat is a former Chief Business Officer at Google X and a bestselling author, and Alice Law is a stress management expert with a powerful personal story. Together, they're on a mission to take a million people a year out of stress.
Skip to 5 minutes and 30 seconds to hear Alice's very personal story about how stress has impacted her life.
In this conversation we explore:
The power of acceptance and how it differs from complacency
Why connecting with others is crucial for managing stress
How different generations experience stress
And so much more…
I’m sure this will make you look at stress differently, and maybe you'll try Mo's challenge of setting your alarm for 3PM on Sundays (yes, really!).
