Stress ... we all feel it.   We can't and shouldn't eliminate it completely, but we can learn practical, specific ways to reduce that "over-stressed" feeling and protect ourselves from its negative effects. 

In this session, employees will:

1. examine the effects of stress on their work and personal lives, and their relationship with stress;
2. reflect on the importance of minimizing stress where you can and coping with it when you can't; and
3. develop an individualized plan for coping with their stress and stressors.

Spend some time now in order to feel more balanced later.
