Chamber U - Don't Just Manage Stress---Prevent it!
We are a fast-paced busy society, which results in not only long To-Do lists, but a sense of urgency that things have to be done ‘right now.’ Not only does this result in overall stress, it can leave people feeling like they are always putting out fires or moving to the next item to do, and never able to plan and be proactive.
There is a distinct lack of relaxation or quiet time in a person’s overall life and even just their day, and a lack of quality relationship time. Technology has advanced to where we are bombarded constantly with data and requests, the obvious example being cell phones with talk/text/email/Internet. It used to be even a busy executive or parent might get 20 minutes of quiet or fun listening to their favorite music while driving, but now the hands-free phone is in the car and instead of a few minutes of peace, we’re continuing to work. Studies show Americans most often do not take all of their vacation time, and even vacation has become less of a break with laptops along and staying plugged into work. So the top issue issue we are seeing is people feeling a weekly if not daily sense of stress.
Thankfully, there is a solution! Be sure to attend this Chamber U to find out what it is!
