Stress Relaxation Techniques


Okanagan Campus | 12:00pm–1:00pm

About this workshop
Our minds and bodies need rest and recovery breaks to allow us to relax and reduce the effects of stress. While everyone has days that are hectic and unfocused, consistently feeling stressed out, rushed, or on the go can have a detrimental impact on a person, increasing their risk of experiencing a serious physical concern, such as heart disease or stroke. This seminar will show participants how to make time to calm down and reduce stress, using both proactive and reactive relaxation techniques.

Who is this for?
All UBC faculty and staff

What will you learn?
Participants will understand the stress response and how it works, discuss the importance of managing stress for optimal health, practice stress reducing exercises and learn how to make time to calm down and reduce stress.

Your facilitator
The facilitator of the session will be provided by UBC's Employee and Family Assistance Program provider, Shepell. 

Registration
Register for the workshop and you will be emailed a zoom link to the webinar.
