What is STRESS? Anything that poses a challenge or a threat to our well-being is stress. Some stresses are good and get you going, but without any stress at all, many say our lives would be boring and probably pointless!

Nevertheless we can’t run away from stress, as it will come no matter how hard we try to avoid it. Today, Perwakilan Muscat ladies are very lucky as one of the members – Puan Sheila Menon had willing to give a workshop talk on the “Stress Management”

Puan Sheila Menon has travelled to several states and trained at numerous Government Agencies, Corporate Organizations and Education Institutions. She, who has an Honours Degree in Law and was a lawyer before, moved her carrier to training and development 12 years ago. She discovered that her true passion is actually in human development. Puan Sheila brings to class her prior exposure to the education and legal worlds together with her wealth experience in training and development.

In this workshop, Puan Sheila walked us thru the process of how to cope with stress. We were also being asked to analyze the level of our stress in our personal life. The workshop was fun as the participants were very sporting as each of us participated in all the activities given. We communicated and shared our feelings with other members that made it more meaningful.

Our Chairlady Ybhg. Prof. Madya Datin Dr Musrifah Sapardi has also invited the representative from the Asean Ladies Circle (ALC) group.  They are the wives of the Ambassadors from Thailand, Indonesia, Brunei, Singapore and Philipines and also the staff of respective Embassies.

Perwakilan Muscat would like to thank to Puan Sheila Menon for sharing her great experience, tips and knowledge in this workshop. This workshop is not just to acquire about the ‘Stress Management’ but also being together to participate and to learn new things. We hope to have more events like this in future.

An inspirational quote said by Fred Rogers - "In times of stress, the best thing we can do for each other is to listen with our ears and our hearts and to be assured that our questions are just as important as our answers".
