The Oxygen Plan: A Revolutionary Stress Test for National Stress Awareness Month
September 11, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Minneapolis, MN (Vocus) April 14, 2010
Announcing The Oxygen Plan is a revolutionary, patent-pending stress management program designed to help people improve their health and relationships while assisting employers in reducing their skyrocketing health care costs.
Stress is what people experience when the demands placed upon them exceed their abilities to cope. Symptoms are what we experience when stress is serious, persistent or as it accumulates over time. Stress has negative impacts on individuals? relationships at home and at work, and is a leading health risk factor linked to several leading causes of death including heart disease, cancer, lung disease, accidents and depression. Data suggest that 75-90% of all doctor visits are related directly or indirectly to stress, and that stress-related absenteeism and loss of productivity at work results in a cost of over $ 400Billion to US employers and the US economy. “It’s a consumer-directed health care solution for the #1 modifiable health risk – stress,” adds The Oxygen Plan founder Eric Lucas.
The Oxygen Plan Stress Test is a unique, 30 question online stress measurement tool; a simple and quick Stress Test, providing clear, instant results that you can see and understand, in the form of a Stress Color and a Stress NumberTM. Using The Oxygen Plan itself, individuals can go on to: (1) taking inventory or identifying stressors at work, at home and in social interactions; (2) categorizing, by color and number, the degree of stress involved; (3) setting life rules or implementing new positive behaviors to deal with stress and (4) repeating the rules as a life plan.
Over 20,000 people to date have completed The Oxygen Plan Stress Test. The clear trend – people are more stressed at home than work or socially.
According to Dr. Donald E. Williams, ?our Stress Test data show what many suspect ? there is a tremendous amount of stress in our society and in our relationships, taking a huge toll on our health, our relationships, and our economy. For individuals, the impact of stress at work takes a tremendous personal toll in terms of lost productivity, absenteeism and burnout. Our data also show that stress disrupts home and social lives, leading to even more problems for individuals in the form of deteriorating social support and troubled relationships. The Oxygen Plan is a solution for individuals ? adults, adolescents and some children — as well as for employers.?

From chemicals in our water supply to the level of toxins in the air and in our food, rage on our highways, disgust in our jobs and frustration in our home, we encounter multiple kinds of stress throughout each day. Stress will make you sick.

Sooner or later, something will break, or melt down. What breaks or melts down depends on where the weak links are in your physical, mental, emotional or psychic makeup,” says Richard Parenti.

Tax Season is Stress Season. The Oxygen Plan Corporation Announces Free Stress Test
August 3, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Minneapolis, MN (Vocus/PRWEB) April 15, 2011
As many scramble to meet the deadline for filing the 2010 income tax returns, acute stress man be rising with it. According Dr. Donald E. Williams, board-certified clinical health psychologist (American Board of Professional Psychology/ABPP), and Chief Science Officer, The Oxygen Plan, “Now is a great time to take The Oxygen Plan Stress Test – tax time. For many, the stress of an important deadline is ‘taxing” enough but can also aggravate existing stress creating symptoms or relationship problems.”
Thomas R. Ward, MPA, JD, LL.M Taxation, agrees. “This tax season, I’m seeing stressors which stem from tax payers’ fears, anxiety and concerns regarding tax obligations, and ability to pay.”
In support of tax season, The Oxygen Plan Corporation announces their free stress test for individuals to learn their Stress Number?. To date, over 40,000 respondents have completed The Oxygen Plan’s 30 question stress test. To assess individual stress, there are 10 questions for home, work and social.
Employers can also find benefit in The Oxygen Plan Stress Test since stressed employees are less productive and more costly. The economic impact translates to $ 4,888 per employee per year. In the work place, stress manifests in lost productivity, absenteeism, presenteeism, group health expense, employee turnover and disability expenses. The total annual economic impact of stress in the U.S. is $ 400 Billion.
“Never before has it been possible to measure, compute, report, trend or aggregate a stress metric as it relates to personal health or organizational cost,” says Dr. Williams. Now, we are able to assess stress, calculate the Stress Number?, provide The Oxygen Plan program and re-measure stress for individuals or organizations. ‘The Stress Number? is a significant development in the field of health metrics.’ ‘We feel the Stress Number? should be used to help individuals and organizations manage health and health care costs ? just like blood pressure and body weight,” adds Eric Lucas, Founder and CEO of The Oxygen Plan. “Because stress in the home or social life impacts employees at work, and vice versa, it’s in employers’ best interest to know the aggregate Stress Number? for their employee populations. Now they can establish a baseline, implement programs toward improvement, and reassess their employees.”
About The Oxygen Plan
The Oxygen Plan is an online behavior change program that helps organizations reduce the costly and negative effects of stress in the workplace and at home, including increased healthcare expenses, chronic medical conditions, mental health issues, absenteeism and productivity losses, and reduced employee engagement. The company’s patent-pending stress management system teaches individuals to recognize the sources and symptoms of stress and provides them with tools and information for effectively reducing and avoiding stress.
