Designed and developed with love by *human mechanic* Dawn Symons
Hi! I’m Dawn, the writer, thinker and coach behind the First Aid For Stress. Over the past three decades, I’ve worked with people of all ages to reduce their physical or emotional tension, pain, fatigue and fears.
I’ve been a student nurse, coach, masseuse and multi-disciplined holistic practitioner. But now I prefer the term multi-dimensional healer as my therapy combines the best of all my studies!
Throughout my career, I’ve made it my personal goal to help people in their most difficult moments. To me, it’s not just a job, it’s what I was born to do.
Is *First Aid for Stress* for you?
- You've been having a tough time. You’re looking for a solution.
- Life has been overwhelming with one thing after another, you’ve not found the time to figure out where to start.
- Getting anxious and stressed, you recognise that it's becoming an issue. It feels like you're in a fight which you are losing or unable to win.
- You are regularly under pressure, overwhelmed, irritable and /or snappy.
- You are used to having millions of different things going on and have previously been able to manage multiple processes effectively
- You feel anxious and as though your foot is to the floor, you know (or believe) that you are in burnout.
- You’ve coped with life before but recently it’s become too much – a tidal wave of everything that's happened, coming at you. You need to be able to cope.
- You don’t want to feel the difficult negative emotions (embarrassment/ shame/ deep sadness or be in floods of tears) so don’t want to talk in-depth about (problem).
- A completely fresh perspective on what’s driving your stress, understanding your ego and finding ways to respond by changing those habits created over time.
- You know that booking a holiday will be welcome but recognise that it’s just a temporary fix and that the fundamentals which need to be addressed will be waiting on your return.
- You need someone to explain your situation to, someone who will give you the advice and tools you need to deal with your immediate mindset/ emotional difficulties as well as structured advice, a plan of action and someone who’s going to hold you accountable to your well-being journey.
- You are ready to start now.
You’re probably dealing with a lot right now...
Anxiety? Depression? Fatigue?
Anxiety, depression and chronic fatigue are completly normal, symptoms of untreated/ unresolved stress. Caused by across the body *domino effect* of chemical changes which occur when you are physically/ emotionally under an on-going pressure. If left unaddressed, they rarely just *go away*.
From financial worries to sleepless nights...

RELATIONSHIP BREAKDOWNS
Have you been struggling with stress in your relationships? Perhaps you have ended up attracting toxic or emotionally unavailable partners, or struggle to hold boundaries with friends & family.
PEOPLE PLEASING
People pleasing can become a dangerous habit that guess what – leaves you stressed and unfullfilled, are you saying yes to avoid conflicts? Do you need to stop putting the needs of everyone else before yours?
STRESS AT WORK
Are you feeling under pressure with tight deadlines? Struggling to manage your workload which once was exciting and achievable? Do you feel overwhelmed working from home, you’re unable to switch off? It needs to be addressed but you don’t know where to go.
INSOMNIA
Stress can lead to long term problems like difficulty sleeping, whether you are counting sheep, suffering with nocturnal panic attacks waking around 3-4 am and unable to get back to sleep or you simply can’t switch off your thoughts, Maga Therapy and First Aid for Stress CAN help you.

Addictions come in many forms from ditching cigerettes to staying off social media. Perhaps you use these “tools” as a form of comfort, reassurance and/ escapism during stressful times, you know its not a long term fix.
