Balancing Your Work Life Noon-Hour Series

Perfect job? Perfect life? We don’t know anyone who would claim that. But there are small, relatively easy changes that can be made that make a big difference in our daily lives. If you would like some new perspectives, new skills and tools, join us in exploring new views of three old topics: change and loss, stress, and work.

Session 2: Stress is not a Four-Letter Word!

Taming Stress at Work and in Life

Stress is a reality of our lives, yet too often we see ourselves as a victim of stress instead of examining our choices in addressing the stressful situation. This can be especially true in the workplace, where it can be tempting to place blame on those at the top instead of taking ownership for our own reactions and choices. In this seminar, you will explore the ways that you may perpetuate and "choose" stress; discover how your body constantly gives you important messages about your well-being; and learn how you can choose alternate perspectives that will shift your reaction to outside events and help you reduce stress in any situation.
