What is the AS Approach?
Active Steps is a logical and practical way to manage stress, anxiety, changing moods and general 'life issues'. It identifies effective ideas and shows you how to get started - today.
Be positive
Focus on your goals, your strengths and what you can do
in the present and future rather than dwelling in the past.
How we want to feel and what we want to do is more
achievable if we think positively and expect success.

Be active: use Active Steps!
Getting started on a task can be easier if you break it
down into small chunks which you complete one at a
time, starting at the beginning. We regularly use the
term Active Step (or AS for short) to refer to the first
thing you can do to get started on a stress-busting
idea – literally what you can do now.
Enhance your TLCB
TLCB stands for thinking (T), lifestyle (L), communication
(C) and behaviour (B) – these are the four key components
of healthy living and working.

Have an action plan
Remember: the action is what will actually make the
difference – taking the ideas and bringing them to life.
A clear plan will help you remember when, where and
how to do this so that you don’t forget.
