An Unwanted Mov
An Unwanted Move:
Tips
for Coping with Stress
There was nothing you didn't like about your Sydney home.
Nice neighbours, good schools, and a block big enough to have a lovely garden.
It was then that your partner announced a promotion to you. The problem is,
you'd need to move to Brisbane. It is near her office. Located in an apartment
building, now its time for a home removal.
Gardening isn't
possible there. How well do you know your neighbours? What's worse? In a week,
she'll be gone, so you'll need to take care of all the arrangements. It's a
recipe for stress, isn't it? As she drones on about the new office, cortisol
builds up in your body.
Be aware
that you are not alone.
You're not alone, first. According to psychologists, moving
is right up there with divorce and even losing a loved one in terms of stress.
An even greater challenge is when the move involves a drastic change in
lifestyle, especially interstate
removals.
Stress-Reduction
Tips
Stress reduction techniques such as deep breathing,
meditation, and retail therapy can help ease the burden. You may be able to
move from stress overload to joyful anticipation by shopping for furnishings
for your new place, like a windowsill garden box.
Your New
Home Can Be a Nostalgic Sanctuary
Consider making at least one room like your current home. By
creating a place where you'll feel at home, you're easing the transition. A
feeling of familiarity can be created by curtains, furniture, or even wall art
and photographs.
Prepare
for moving day with help.
You should spend time with friends and familiar places
before you face a move you'd rather not make. Say your goodbyes and create a
mental picture that will accompany you wherever you go. Take advantage of
moving and packing services if you can.
You can leave all the hard work to them. As a result, your
routine will remain as normal as possible. In case you still haven't found work
in your new location, you may want to use that extra time to go job hunting
long-distance.
Create a
checklist.
Even if you have extra help moving, a moving checklist can
help you feel in control. By marking something as 'done', you are taking
ownership of the move. The power of that is immense. The more control you feel,
the less stress you'll experience.
Let your old home go with a farewell. Takeaway and bubbly
will help you celebrate your friendship and new life. Don't forget to schedule
another meeting.
