Improving work environment sometimes means asking
00:00:12
the company for changes when possible.
00:00:16
It is also finding many simple ideas to improve our vaog,
00:00:20
sensory environment,
00:00:27
How to prevent stress by sending positive signals to the body and the five senses,
00:00:33
five senses which are our environment,
00:00:36
brain interface.
00:00:39
Requesting an improvement in our working environment
00:00:43
if your environment generates a lot of stress for you.
00:00:46
I invite you to talk about it with the competent people,
00:00:50
HR staff representatives,
00:00:52
occupational doctor,
00:00:55
You can refer to the expressing our Diffy video to find out how to do it.
00:01:00
Regarding your working environment,
00:01:02
you can request a change in working hours,
00:01:06
more equipment comfort.
00:01:08
For those who suffer from back pain,
00:01:12
to ask for an ergonomic chair with the support of your doctor.
00:01:16
You can ask for a better working condition of the equipment,
00:01:20
an improvement in the cleaning or restoration work,
00:01:23
or even water fountains.
00:01:25
All of this will help improve your daily working life.
00:01:31
how much a malfunctioning printer or software can feed the stress
00:01:35
machine and pollute our days even if it seems trivial.
00:01:39
Do not resign yourself to being silent because you have
00:01:42
complained 3 times and you have not been heard.
00:01:45
Dare to ask and do it several times,
00:01:48
and if possible,
00:01:49
collectively if your request is shared.
00:01:52
You won't always have a positive answer,
00:01:54
but at least you will have done your part of the job,
00:02:01
contributing to the improvement of your work environment.
00:02:05
Besides making clear and constructive requests,
00:02:09
you also have your own room for maneuver in your work environment.
00:02:13
You can boost your positive internal states by improving your VAOG environment.
00:02:23
these are touch tactile sensations like the comfort of an office chair,
00:02:28
olfactory and gustatory environment.
00:02:31
Our mind reacts directly to our five senses by creating internal states,
00:02:37
positive or negative.
00:02:39
A beautiful landscape,
00:02:41
good cooking smells,
00:02:42
a piece of chocolate in the mouth,
00:02:46
a favorite song from our youth,
00:02:50
We can act to improve our sensory environment
00:02:53
with very little things which in combination will make the difference.
00:02:58
And will allow us more easily not to be knocked down at the first stress.
00:03:03
Let's take an endlessly repeated tip on stress management articles.
00:03:09
Make your office a haven of peace.
00:03:12
Approaching your office will trigger a
00:03:13
stimulus of well-being rather than tension.
00:03:17
How to make your office a more friendly and comfortable place.
00:03:23
this involves sorting and tidying up if you have an assigned office.
00:03:27
You can also add visual stimuli to generate well-being,
00:03:31
a landscape wallpaper from your last vacation,
00:03:34
or your children,
00:03:36
a green plant that not only provides you with purified oxygen,
00:03:40
but naturally triggers relaxation reactions.
00:03:44
A decorative object that has a story for you.
00:03:47
Add colors to your surroundings.
00:03:49
Why not use colorful pens,
00:03:51
bring a cute mug,
00:03:52
offer yourself a fun mouse pad.
00:03:55
All of this can add simple little pleasures to your daily visual.
00:03:59
Do not neglect these little pleasures and change them regularly.
00:04:03
We are talking about positive visual anchoring.
00:04:06
This anchoring can fade over time.
00:04:09
You end up not seeing your wallpaper photo,
00:04:12
or you put a neutral look on your mug brought back from vacation.
00:04:17
Go get the child part in yourself that still has the power to marvel
00:04:21
and have fun with a pencil sharpener in the shape of a frog.
00:04:27
concern in the auditory sense.
00:04:29
Pay attention to your sound environment.
00:04:32
If it's stressful for you,
00:04:34
protect yourself.
00:04:35
Shut down your computer as soon as you can.
00:04:39
Protecting yourself from noise pollution can consist of working
00:04:42
with earplugs without fear of the eyes of others,
00:04:46
or work with headphones and calm music that will facilitate your concentration.
00:04:52
Change your smartphone ring tone regularly for more enjoyable music.
00:04:57
Perhaps listening to music or relaxation audios in the car
00:05:01
or subway will help you start your day better.
00:05:05
Concerning the kinesthetic sense.
00:05:07
Take care of your comfort.
00:05:10
have a good mattress for quality sleep,
00:05:13
make sure that you have a chair that's right for you,
00:05:17
that the work station is at the right height to avoid strain.
00:05:20
And the ideal is to have a 90 degree angle at the knees,
00:05:27
and the screen at head height
00:05:29
so as not to have it to lower it and create tension in the neck.
00:05:34
Add an ergonomic cushion,
00:05:36
$15 on the net or a footrest if necessary,
00:05:40
or change your screen.
00:05:42
Sometimes your body deserves a small or large financial investment from you
00:05:48
so as not to add to the list of stressors.
00:05:51
In terms of olfactory,
00:05:54
as one of my coachees did,
00:05:55
add a scent candle to your office,
00:05:58
open the windows if possible,
00:06:00
or at least take out fresh air every 2 hours.
00:06:03
You can also use essential oils and spray the palm of your wrist from time to time.
00:06:09
Lavender has relaxing properties.
00:06:12
Mandarin is calming and will help you if you have insomnia.
00:06:16
Grapefruit boosts strength and confidence.
00:06:19
Know that the sense of smell is the one
00:06:21
that acts most deeply on our central nervous system.
00:06:26
It recalls the oldest anchorages,
00:06:28
as Proust tells us,
00:06:30
smelling like a muffin,
00:06:32
found himself immersed in his childhood
00:06:34
memories with his grandmother cooking muffins.
00:06:38
And remember to alternate,
00:06:39
even a scent that you adore can be changed if you
00:06:43
feel it no longer creates that positive state you once experienced.
00:06:49
the sense of taste,
00:06:52
How do you feed yourself?
00:06:54
What makes you feel good?
00:07:00
piece of chocolate,
00:07:01
a mentors sugar free?
00:07:03
Can you allow yourself to have some on hand in the office?
00:07:06
We have therefore seen that you have a real grip on your vacog environment
00:07:11
which will allow you to prevent stress
00:07:13
by keeping your body in good energy and by sending
00:07:17
positive signals through the five senses to your brain.
00:07:22
if your work environment is really too stressful for you,
00:07:25
ring the alarm bell
00:07:27
and or allow yourself to change.
