Life. You’re probably dealing with a lot right now...
There are many options, from counselling to anti-anxiety/ anti-depression prescriptions, but do they address the source of the problem fast enough? And if they do, then what next? Of course, the original ‘problem’ is still the problem. So let’s tackle this together!
From financial worries to sleepless nights. Dealing with day-to-day problems or routines, work, relationships, and life is increasingly stressful. Are you dealing with several stressful situations at once?
From financial worries to sleepless nights…
ANXIETY & LOW MOOD
You are a slave to your negative thoughts. You are experiencing long-term worry and chaos. As a result, you occasionally/ regularly experience anxiety (attacks) and/or a low mood.
RELATIONSHIP BREAKDOWNS
Struggling with stress in your relationships? Have you ended up attracting toxic or emotionally unavailable partners OR struggle to hold boundaries with friends or family members.
PEOPLE PLEASING
People pleasing can become a dangerous habit that leaves you stressed. Are you saying yes to avoid conflicts? Do you need to stop putting the needs of everyone else before yours?
DEALING WITH ADDICTIONS
Addictions come in many forms, from ditching cigarettes to staying off social media. Perhaps you use these “tools” as comfort and reassurance during stressful times – it’s not a long-term fix.
STRESS AT WORK
Are you feeling under pressure with tight deadlines? Do you feel overwhelmed working from home and can’t switch off? Are you looking after a family too. It needs to be addressed.
SLEEP DIFFICULTIES
Stress can lead to long-term problems, e.g. difficulty falling asleep, insomnia and waking early. You may be counting sheep, suffering from nocturnal panic attacks but FAFS can help.
Start your recovery by taking our stress test
The stress test is the first step on that journey. Complete the stress test by answering 10 questions and get your instant stress score and interpretation.
The first step of every healing journey is to figure out where you are now. You can also access our six part mini series.

We can now empower ourselves to break the cycle of unhealthy stress. We must learn to manage our stress & also find healthy ways to communicate, set boundaries and deal with the other people in our lives healthily.
