What To Do For Anxiety?

Hi,
I am back again... Work has been hectic. They have announced at least 800 job cuts and we have told it would be swift. Boy, was it swift!! One whole department of at least 120 people were asked to leave and they left in 5 days time. Not enough time to say 'goodbyes' or to get their thoughts together for their future. Many of them were my dearest colleagues and friends.

Needless to say they were facing incredible levels of anxiety - at least one of them were getting married the following week, yet another colleague/friend was going through family health crisis.

Anxiety was certainly rife all around.Anxiety can be catching even more so when it is at collective energy levels in certain 'pockets' such as this particular area.

But, what to do for anxiety?

Top 7 things you can do under such circumstances are:

1. Think, "Hey, I don't know what sort of opportunities are lurking around the corner. I just need a different pair of eyes to spot them."

2. Pull out your wish list and get to do some of the things you actually want to do.

3. Retrieve your little black book and ring those contacts you have - your network may increase your networth by helping you with a better paid job.

4. Refresh your resume - not only is it ready to be sent out to potential employers - it will serve as an excellent boost to your confidence. It will show you in black and white the wonderful things you have achieved in your career so far.

5. Spend time with your family. Remember the times when you worked late and did not get to spend time with your family. This is a great time to make up for lost time with your family!

6. Take up the meditation/yoga. If you implement that now as part of a routine, not only would that help you overcome anxiety, it will also help you continue with healthy mental habits when you start your new job.7. Certainly keep in touch with your old colleagues - they just may have that one contact/lead that can lead you to a dream job!

These tips should help you get some anxiety relief coming from loss of jobs.
