I learned strategies on how to manage stress. Also, if after taking a moment to stop and breathe, trying your best, and realizing that some things are just beyond your control, then you have to let go.
Stress can lead to physical burdens. It's encouraged to step away, breathe for a moment, reflect, and move forward with whatever has caused the stress ... sending a reply to an email that angers us a minute after receiving it may not be the right choice. Doing so can create tension that could've been avoided. It's best to step away: push yourself away from the desk, breathe and think, and then perhaps send a reply that will be a bit more calming, yet professional.

I always knew how to deal with stress and anxiety however, dealing with it daily makes you forget and focus on the stressor, give in to what will make you feel more energized, easy and less task taking at the end of the day. Coffee, junk food and not doing anything after a long day of work. Which adds to your stress and anxiety. The Covid19 pandemic did not help and made it worse. This course reminded me that its time to refocus and re-assess the way I approach my team and my work. Good health is very important and will help me cope up with the demands of work at the end.
It's been a tough year, with a monumental learning curve. I need to not let work overwhelm everything else. I plan on working on a better balance between work and the rest of my life. I've already added some of the stress deduction techniques. But have found others that I'll be adding.
