Introduction
START-with-Gudrun! offers different services to help you reduce your stress and overwhelm. In our life we experience different situations that cause stress.
Psychological studies show that woman used to live longer than men. Nowadays, women close up to men and die earlier. Why is that so? Woman used to be at home, look after the children and did not work. The stress level men experienced at work, being responsible for the family by earning the main income and facing more adversity and danger being away from their family affected the stress level.
As you might know women and men work part-time or full-time and women often additionally look after the children. Lots of hats have to be handled for both parties. Further, it might families look after the parents when their children are in puberty, adding even more pressure.
If leadership positions are held and projects are due the physical side might take a toll. Are you feeling constantly tired? It could be sign of overwhelm…
Does that sound familiar to you?
😩 You are responsible for several projects, budgets and a team of employees.
😩 You are renovating a house or have family members to look after.
😩 You feel tired and lacking energy. You do not know why you should get up in the morning.
😩 When something comes in the way, you get angry and annoyed quickly.
😩 You get colds, muscle pain or headaches regularly.
What clients report...
Clients who come to us with stress or burnout report feeling overwhelmed for a few years but are afraid to admit they are stressed and do not know how to change their current situation. Because Gudrun also works for health insurance, she reports that clients often have a long way of not coping after them. If you do not want to end up unable to work and provide for your family, we encourage you to start your journey to be resilient in most life events now.
Do you have a feeling of failure?
After a new attempt to change your behaviour, your frustration rises, your self-esteem falls, and you feel guilt. You think you have not been disciplined enough again.
Wrong!
This attitude could have an end soon. Let us imagine the following:
😁 The stress will go, and you will feel relaxed and light.
😁 You will enjoy a healthy life again
😁 You will solve problems proactively and not feel like a victim anymore.
😁 Resilience will no longer feel like a diet that can only be achieved by discipline.
😁 You will have a purpose in your life that enables you to focus. You will exude positive energy.

I am Gudrun, a psychologist, coach and counsellor offering online coaching. I have worked in this field for over twenty years, helping people of all kinds find a happier and more relaxed life.
My Master's Thesis in 2002 dealt with breaks during work. Do you know that changing the kind of work is already a break for your brain? That means when you have prepared slides for a presentation and then walk to the copy machine, your brain has a break because different parts of your brain are activated.
Later I started to run and at some point I thought running marathon would be a great dream to come true. Of course it took time to prepare, but some time later on I run my first 24-hour run with 64 km. Berlin, I am coming. That September, I ran my first of three Berlin marathons, followed by a few ultra marathons. What has it got to do with your stress?
Reducing stress is like a marathon. You start with short distances, and with time and consistency, the distances expand. At times, you might overtrain and injure yourself. But when the injury is healed, you pick up the training and reach the next level.
With every relapse, you know that it is time to adjust your behaviour. In the past, you have tried to reduce your stress through discipline and experienced that the stress level did not sink because you tried to sprint. Because you used discipline and willpower to reach your goal, you experienced a higher stress level after every attempt.
