Feeling stressed? According to magazine Recruitment Matters, you are not alone. More than 13 million days a year are lost to work-related stress - that's more than those taken off for the common cold!

The magazine has compiled a list of top tips for staying calm and in control. The Hatty Blue team will be taking deep breaths and scanning their eyes over the list whenever the pressure hots up over the coming months...

1) Confront problems and unpleasant issues. Every 'live' problem at the back of your mind is a drain on your energies.

2) Be realistic. Accept challenges that are exciting and constructive - not those that are impossible - and practice saying no without feeling guilty.

3) Delegate/Prioritise. Delegate work that doesn't require your direct personal involvement and shelve work that can't be done now.

4) Accept occasional failure. See it as an inevitable, positive opportunity for developing, rather than a personal reflection on you.

5) Express your feelings. Let people know how their actions and decisions affect you, and how that makes you feel. Ask for help, avoid unnecessary conflict and look for win-win situations

6) Adopt a healthy lifestyle. A good diet, regular exercise and getting adequate rest means your body is better able to cope with stress should it occur. Avoid alcohol, nicotine and caffeine.
