STRESS AND WORK LIFE BALANCE
Preventatists discovered decades ago, that it is easier to give the worker a defence against all stress, rather than try to change the workplace conditions, and this is what Preventatism does. One of the important things to remember about stress is that it is caused by those unavoidable incoming distresses, [IDs], of life which cannot be avoided. Some jobs and some industries have more stress than others… thinking here about police and ambulance worker, teachers and fire-fighters for example. IDs will become stress unless a sound defence is applied to defend the individual against stress. And stress has been clearly shown to be the root cause of several nasty disorders in humans, including cancer, depression, diabetes and heart conditions. Preventatism is a defence, for use whenever those IDs threaten a person’s health. It was developed four decades ago, and has proved itself to be worthy and workable, efficient, economic and highly effective for its purpose. Preventatism was developed for use in helping people with those stress-related disorders to recover from them, but has been shown to be significantly effective for healthy people who just want to stay that way and defend themselves effectively from ID. Preventatism is simple and easy to learn, being non-religious, non-spiritual, and non-medical. The philosophy is also, therefore, available to all – wealthy and poor, disadvantaged and privileged, young and not-so-young. So, from the C.E.O.’s perspective, having a comfortable and stressfree workplace is mighty efficient effective and economic….keeps the bottom line healthy…
