Do you sometimes feel anxious when you think about having to engage in conversation with a customers? Or perhaps feel restless leading up to a performance discussion with your team lead? Maybe even a tinge of panic at the looming prospect of rendering overtime? these are just some of the triggers of emotional stress in the workplace.
While we all experience stress from time to time, it's the type of stress (routine stress) that's related to the pressures of work, family and other daily responsibilities that are the hardest to notice, or arguably, because it tends to be more constant. However, over time, continued strain from routine stress may contribute stress may contribute to serious health problems.
What happens in our brains and bodies when we experience stress? What role do our eating and sleeping habits, as well as, exercise play in this? And what of our ability to regulate our emotions? These are some questions we will look to provide answers to in this session.
Insights:
Understand the relationship between physical and emotional resilience
Step into the experience of sampling a number of emotional regulating tools
