On this week’s Talking Health and Wellbeing Podcast episode, we hear about the new HSE Balancing Stress programme, exploring how stress, worry, anxiety and panic can build up in day-to-day life, and why recognising your own stress patterns is a key first step in managing them.

This episode introduces evidence-based tools including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and positive psychology, along with simple breathing and relaxation exercises that listeners can start using immediately. The Balancing Stress programme is free, confidential and designed to fit busy lives, allowing people to dip in and out of sessions at their own pace and in their own time.
