Te sientes abrumado por el estrés. ¿Cómo se puede utilizar la tecnología para gestionarlo?

To manage stress using technology, try mindfulness apps like Headspace or Calm for guided meditation, use productivity tools like Todoist or Trello to organize tasks, employ wearable devices for biofeedback, and leverage virtual support groups or therapy platforms for guidance and support.

Technology offers solutions for stress management. Use apps or wearables to track stress levels. Monitor changes over time and identify triggers. Incorporate relaxation techniques suggested by these tools. Stay mindful of screen time and balance it with offline activities for better mental health.

Well! Technology can help a lot in stress management we just have to keep a distance with it during stress. Take a break remove your smart watch, put your phone on silent and do breathing exercises. Learn easy meditation procedures, yoga, while you are not in stress and then perform it regularly or whenever required.

Yo creo que todos tenemos claro cuando nuestros niveles de estrés son altos. Ahora bien, lo cierto es que cuando tenemos mucho tiempo experimentado y acumulando estrés, nos vamos distanciando de nuestro cuerpo. Por lo que tener consciencia nuestros niveles de estrés se vuelve difícil. Yo uso smartphone que si lo deseo me ayuda a monitorear mis niveles de estrés. No es muy exacto, pero se acerca bastante a la realidad. Esto es útil solo si vamos a invertir tiempo en observarnos mejor y en reflexionar acerca de lo que estos datos quieren decirnos.

Existen muchas aplicaciones en el mercado que te ayudan, por ejemplo con ejercicios de respiración. Estos son muy útiles, puesto que los mismos te van contando el tiempo de la inhalación, el tiempo de contener la respiración y el tiempo de la exhalación. Esto hace que puedas relajarte más y concentrarte totalmente en tu respiración. Además de con su ayuda aprendes diferentes tipos de respiración, cada uno de ellos, con sus respectivos objetivos.

Look no further than the Harvard happiness study for why connecting with others is so important. The Harvard Happiness Study tracked 724 men for 85 years, from their college years into old age, revealing key factors for a fulfilling life. The most consistent finding we’ve learned through 85 years of study is: Positive relationships keep us happier, healthier, and help us live longer. Period. To make sure your relationships are healthy and balanced, it’s important to practice “social fitness.” Social fitness requires taking stock of our relationships, and being honest with ourselves about where we’re devoting our time and whether we are tending to the connections that help us thrive.

Yo, que vivo lejos de mi familia, me siento enormemente agradecida que actualmente a través de una videollamada (sin costo alguno) pueda entrar en contacto con mi amada familia. Pero no solo esto. A lo largo de un curso online conocí a dos de mis mejores amigas. Cada una de nosotras vive en un país diferente. Pero aun así gracias a la tecnología tenemos una relación cercana y gratificante.

Existen un montón de cursos online, desde los cuales de la comodidad de tu casa puedes aprender algo a tu propio ritmo y tiempo. A mí me encantan los cursos online. Pues con mi agenda tan ocupada, me permiten seguir desarrollándome en lo que entiendo es importante para mí en este momento.

I disagree with the use of technology if it means to use mobile phone for watching movies or playing games during stress. If you are in stress and want to see a movie go to Cinema Hall, or you want to play game go to a game parlor. The thing is I do not oppose technology but I disagree with the way we have integrated it in our lives. Adding more and more features to everything is creating more and more distractions and chaos, resulting in more stress. But if you are not in stress it's okay to use your phone for entertainment for a limited and monitored time period.

Yo recomiendo el tetris. Es un juego que te ayuda a bajar los niveles de estrés. A desarrollar paciencia. A subir tus niveles de concentración. Lo mismo que ejercita tu memoria. Potencia tu pensamiento crítico. Ordenar objetos a la perfección en pequeños espacios. En fin te ayuda a cuidar tu salud mental.

I totally agree with it. We should always have timers for our apps, it definitely helps in reducing the screen time. But with it we also need to find other hobbies or interests. Because humans can't sit idle, if we have nothing meaningful to do we will overthink or watch reels/videos. So only setting the timers won't help because what we will do after the timer gets off? We need to be selective in choosing our 'stress relieving' activities. Play physical games/sports if possible, talk with your colleagues/friends, go for a walk in a park, or simply close your eyes and listen to music.

Tips for Reducing Screen Time Turn off notifications. Notifications are messages from apps that appear on your screen to alert you of new activity. This triggers you to look at your phone and, more likely than not, spend additional time on your phone beyond checking what the notification is. Set a timer. Use a timer on your phone, when you are watching television or using a tablet. When the timer goes off, turn off the device and make an effort to move your body—go for a walk, clean a room or try an at-home workout. Leave the phone out of the bedroom. Many people fall prey to scrolling their phone in bed at night or when they first wake up in the morning. This interferes with your sleep and can significantly add to your daily screen time

For me, one of the best ways to use technology to manage stress is to use an app that helps you manage time on what you need to do, exclusively to everything else. When you prioritise and do one thing at a time, your stress levels automatically reduce. Allowing yourself to become absorbed by that task and then moving to the next task allows you to stay centred and not be overwhelmed. I use Todoist, which really helps me organise my tasks based on priority using colour (red being the highest priority).
