Farmers Lifestyle Pressures

A farming lifestyle is a touch one. It may well be romanticised in novels but, the truth of the matter it is hard work. To start with there are the very long hours that are involved which are taxing mentally and physically. Also let’s not forget farmers work long hours alone in many cases which can lead to social isolation and feeling lonely all day. There is a huge amount of mental resilience required to dedicate yourself to this lifestyle year in and year out. Indeed downing tools and going home does not necessarily mean the end of a working day, sometimes there is still more to do as the sun is setting. All of these lifestyle pressures can lead to a lot of stress. Your mind and body can only take so much pressure before you really need a release from it. This is where massage comes in. Releasing the mental pressures for a short time can leave you head feeling quite refreshed and releasing muscle tension can leave you feeling invigorated. All of this happens in a private confidential space where you can talk to your understanding therapist or just enjoy the bliss of treatment.

Stress from Unpredictable and Ever-Changing Weather Patterns

Imagine if your own workplace was hotter, wetter and more unpredictable every year, would that stress you out? Yes, well farmers tend to work outside so climate change will affect them more than others. We have always had weather in the UK so much so it is one of the most discussed topics by the generally public. There is some debate about climate change however the numbers do not lie.

Volatile Prices & Markets Produce Additional Farm Stress

Markets are required to sell the goods you produce. For livestock there are plenty of markets and auctions in Yorkshire (Malton, Selby, Otley, Thirsk and others).
