Trafficlight tool app
This web app is developed for people who have high demanding job and private situations. The goal is to strengthen the mental condition. The Trafficlight tool teaches you to recognize stress signals and to take the right action needed in all kind of situations.
The focus is on strengthening yourself and keep on using positive sources of energy.
Why the Trafficlight tool app
The Trafficlight tool app is developed by Heilwine Bakker, director and founder of Balans & Impuls. She has worked since 1997 to give practical guidance and tools for people who operate in demanding life situations to stay mentally healthy and in balance. Unfortunately people and organisations often search for help when its too late. Then there is already a psychological inbalance with complaints as: burnout, depression, fears and posttraumatic stress disorder.
A high demanding life can cost overload, especially when sources of energy are neglected. Often there is not enough knowledge about the own character, also called your personal guidlines. These personal guidelines teache you to your own way to recognize signals of stress and taking the right action in time.
This Trafficlight tool wants to fulfill these needs. The Trafficlight tool is developed for different occupations with a high demanding character. Both are important en needed in all kind of situations. The focus in this app is the mental condition.
