3 tips vs. Affective Tiredness Syndrome

Image
The  Affective Tiredness Syndrome  in a couple occurs when  passion  disappears and silence gains ground;  In addition, in this type of relationship, individuals have  sex  only to “check the card” or due to biological urgency.   According to  American psychologists  Ellyn Bader and Peter Pearson  , every relationship evolves and goes through some phases that coincide with the mother-child relationship, among these are: Fusion: When the two feel one Differentiation: Each person asserts their own identity and tests its strength Exploration: The ability to take distance from the other is tested with activities of all kinds of approach. Experts assure that by overcoming the previous stages,  couples  come together, improve their  communication  , establish conditions clearly (each one is enriched by the differences of the other), and of complicity (the two become more involved in the construction of the couple and i...

Vacations improve mental health

Image
This bridge is the perfect opportunity to forget about the daily routine,  stress  and everyday problems.  Traveling should be synonymous with  rest  , which will benefit your  well  -being and  mental health  . It takes more than just watching television to achieve this, so the vacation period should be considered more than an expense, an investment in our health.  After vacations, people are more creative and productive, that is, they perform at 100% of their physical and intellectual capacity. When an individual does not  rest  adequately, they tend to get sick more frequently and  stress  can cause everything from  body paralysis  to a  heart attack  . The vacation period represents a time without rules, which frees people from the  tension  and pressures they face daily;  they forget about the traffic, the pollution and the regulations that they have to comply with every day.

Image
Today people are immersed in an environment of constant change and pressure.  Difficulties such as lack of employment, downsizing or  emotional  and financial problems, generate in the individual a situation of uncertainty and  anxiety  that can cause a state of  stress  and fatigue.   Stress is a physiological response to an  unforeseen  situation that gets out of control, and when this happens the body can react negatively: fatigue, muscle contractions and alterations in the  nervous system.   Considered as the lack of energy or  motivation  , fatigue generates a state of  apathy  in the person , which not only hinders the realization of projects, but also hinders the social interaction of the affected individual.    An investigation carried out by the firm  Grant Thornton International Business Report  indicates that Mexico is in seventh place worldwide in  work stress.   The...

Prevent the return to the office from being a storm

Image
Leaders can now take steps to make their employees feel supported and safe before they resume in-person work. As vaccination against covid-19 spreads throughout the bulk of the population, a possible return to offices is beginning to be considered.  Many organizations are considering implementing a hybrid model, where teams come into the office a few days a week or a month. For employees who have been isolated during the pandemic, going back to the office will be an exciting process;  For those who have become accustomed to the home office or suffer from persistent health problems, it will cause anxiety.  Most will experience a mixture of both sensations;  In short, the return to the new normal will be a storm of emotions. As a leader, your role is to give teams as much certainty about the future landscape as possible, and while no one really knows what the world will look like in six months, starting today you can take a few steps to make your teammates feel support...

Emotional salary, another way of rewarding employees

Image
Have you heard the term “emotional salary”?  In the world of work, more and more companies are opting for this other form of payment to their collaborators, since it refers to non-monetary compensation, such as flexible hours and permits to attend to personal matters, said the researcher from the Faculty of Psychology of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), Erika Villavicencio Ayub. Thus, the organizations that have implemented programs for labor well-being are the ones that, even in the context of the health crisis, managed to increase their sales and production rates, while at the same time satisfying and reducing incidents among their collaborators. The objective is to create an environment of comfort by accompanying the different stages and needs of the personal and professional life of the workers, he explained, with which they could commit to their work and stay longer in the organization. “Sometimes leaders bring a negative style, so it is necessary to sensit...

More flexible jobs to face today

Image

Retaining collaborators, as well as recruiting staff, are some of the difficulties that companies and executives face in the current context, derived from the pandemic, according to the article "Why is it so difficult to retain and hire employees right now ?”  published by the MIT Sloan Management Review Mexico. However, he refers that the difficulties at work are due to the fact that since before the coronavirus, people have focused on taking care of their health and, therefore, are looking for a healthy job that allows them to combine life scenarios through flexibility. Another point is that more and more families have two ...

Emotional situation of the collaborators when returning to the offices in person

Image
At the beginning of the pandemic, the main concern of many companies was how to implement work from home in record time and with the fear that workers would not work in the same way when doing it remotely.  Now, in addition, it is managing the process of returning to the office, the 'return operation' of employees to the workplace. Working at home, with its pros and cons, has made it possible to maintain the productive activity of thousands of companies, while protecting the health of workers and society as a whole.  After two years working remotely or with a hybrid system, it will be difficult for many to re-adapt to face-to-face work dynamics.  In addition to this, there is a series of issues related to the anxiety that it generates about the new infections that continue to appear, because if we are sure of something, it is that the pandemic left emotional havoc in most of us, especially those who lived first hand some experience related to COVID-19 with a close family ...
