Your Stress Management is designed to manage your stress. Any success in dealing with stress must begin with self-knowledge.

The changes may be simple ones, such as incorporating more relaxation into daily life, or a major changes such as in work or home arrangements which may be necessary. Change is difficult, but the rewards in terms of personal happiness and effectiveness, may be worth the effort.

The workshops give the background of how stress is part of everyday life and to be able to identify when it is affecting or starting to affect an individual's health. Ideally 6-8 participants at each workshop give the participants the opportunity for discussion.
