Coping Skills

You’ll get easy-to-implement tools and techniques – grounded in research – so you can maintain strong mental and physical health, enhancing problem-solving and decision-making.

Investing in your coping skills is one of the best ways to maximise the return on your most important asset.

Coping skills are:

• tools we can use to adapt to things around us when we are feeling anxious, stressed or overwhelmed.
• things we can do when we want to turn down the volume of our emotions so we can respond with thought, and not react irrationally.
• actions we can take in-the-moment to enhance control over our behaviour or to provide some sort of comfort.

Any healthy habit that reduces stress is a coping skill – things like eating well, sleeping properly or exercising regularly – but when we talk about skills, we mean something that provides immediate results. These skills don’t come naturally so you need to take time to invest in building them.

Our coping skills offering is one of the most popular in our personal investment programme. You’ll get easy-to-implement tools and techniques – grounded in research – so you can maintain strong mental and physical health, enhancing problem-solving and decision-making.
