Course description

Stress is a normal part of life. But that doesn’t mean it’s easy to deal with! When too much stress builds up over time, it can affect our work, our personal lives, and even our health. Learning to deal with stress in a healthy way can improve our well-being, at work and at home.

Here’s what will be covered in this course:

  • - We will explore what stress is and what it feels like.
  • - We’ll talk about good ways to reduce and recover from stress.
  • - You’ll have a chance to figure out some sources of stress in your life, and make a plan to deal with at least one of them.
