stress management solutions for the workplace

moving beyond stress

Our moving beyond stress workshop gives delegates tangible techniques, knowledge, insights and strategies in order to manage, mitigate and reduce the physical and psychological effects of stress. Delegates engage on a thorough exploration of how to manage stress most effectively, which is then supported by a series of simple yet highly effective mind-body exercises – empowering them to take ownership of their personal wellbeing.

what does the workshop involve?

The Moving Beyond Stress workshop equips delegates with a comprehensive understanding of the physiological and psychological effects of stress and the importance of managing stress for improved mental and physical wellbeing.

Delegates are guided through an incremental development of personalised stress management strategies as well as being additionally equipped with a set of highly effective relaxation techniques. Clients also discover simple techniques on how to recognise and release physical tension held in the body - a key factor to the preemptive management of stress on a daily basis.
