LGU workers attend stress
management seminar
By Jun Tarroza
Handling public services and
management in a government
workplace is stressful, thus the aim
of some city government workers
for attending the “Handling Stress
and Emotional Distress in Life”
seminar of Vicente Hao Chin, Jr. in
the City Hall, last May 4.
According to Chin, stress and
emotional distress are major sources
of family conflicts, physical illness,
work ineffectiveness and violence.
Chin explained that if a person is
under stress, he or she feels fear,
which in turn leads to worry and
then anxiety. Another indicator of
distress is irritation, the consequence
of which could be feelings of hurt,
loneliness, depression and guilt.
To control these emotions is
to undergo the process of selftransformation,
the comprehensive
process of personal and spiritual
growth as an individual. Chin
believes in theosophy and is a
member of Theosophical Society of
the Philippines.
w w w . t h e o s o p h y . p h
defines theosophy “as a body
of ageless wisdom that helps us
understand life and the cosmos. It
demonstrates the underlying unity
of all great religions when they
are stripped of their superstitions
and dogmas. It offers a philosophy
of life that enables individuals to
integrate the material, emotional,
mental, social, moral and spiritual
aspects of living.”
