The Stress Traffic Light – Free Worksheet to Recognise Stress (Printable PDF)

Please note: the PDF is written in German.

Free for you: recognise your stress before it overwhelms you.

Stress rarely comes out of nowhere. There are almost always warning signs, but in everyday life we tend to miss them. The stress traffic light shows you at a glance where you stand: green (in balance), yellow (under pressure) or red (overloaded). And it shows you what really helps in each phase.

What's inside

• The traffic light explained: how to recognise each phase in your body, thoughts and behaviour, and what helps right now.
• Your personal traffic light: to fill in. Write down how you notice you're doing well, what your warning signs are and who you can call when you're in the red.
• Where are you today? A self-assessment scale and a traffic-light week where you colour in each evening.
• 3 instant exercises: short, simple and doable anywhere.
