A recent poll reveals that many adults feel overwhelmed in managing various aspects of their lives, including physical health (33%), work (29%), and finances (28%). Coinciding with a partnership between Smart Energy GB and the Professional Darts Corporation, the article highlights how developing routines, much like professional athletes such as Stephen Bunting, can foster a sense of control. Psychologist Dr. Josie Perry emphasizes the value of identifying stress-reducing activities and using tools like smart meters to help manage energy bills and ease financial pressures.
"Whether I'm at the oche or preparing for a tournament, I know that feeling of being under pressure all too well, and it can get overwhelming. Over time, I've learned ways to deal with it, so I can keep calm and stay in control of my game. One thing I do that helps me a lot is sticking to a daily routine."
"I have worked with a lot of athletes and sports players to overcome mental barriers and help them stay in control of their performance, and these techniques can also help households day-to-day. Identifying one important thing you can do that's going to reduce pressure when you're stressed, and focusing on completing that first, will help you get back in control."
