Stress in the Workplace
Do you know that work-related stress doesn't end when you get home? When stress persists, it can take a toll on your health and well-being. In the short -term, stress from a stressful work environment can lead to head-aches, stomachaches, sleep disturbances, short temper or difficulty concentrating. Chronic stress can result in anxiety, insomnia, high blood pressure, a weakened immune system and worse! In our Stress Management training session, participants will learn how to manage stress for themselves, which will create a stress-free work environment. Feeling good physically and mentally will cut down needless absenteeism and assist your staff at performing better and enjoy coming to work!

TIME: 1:00pm-4:00pm
