Healthy through the Holidays - November Webinars


The holidays present an array of demands - parties, shopping, entertaining, cleaning, and baking, to just name a few. The holiday season can sometimes bring unwelcomed guests - stress, anxiety or depression. Take control of the holidays by attending November's webinars presented by the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program in partnership with the Faculty and Staff Wellness Program.

Managing Holiday Stress
The approaching holiday season brings many expectations. Often this makes us feel like we are being pulled in a hundred different directions. There are office parties to attend, family get-togethers to schedule, children's holiday recitals and gifts to buy. The holidays can be one of the happiest times of the year, yet it can also be one of the most stressful. Maintaining balance and keeping stress from overwhelming you are the keys to an enjoyable holiday season. This workshop provides an overview of common stressors people encounter during the holidays, and offers "stress buster" tips to help you get the most possible enjoyment out of the season.

Goals of the workshop:
* Identify ways to cope with emotional stressors of the holidays

Hobbies for Mental and Physical Health
Hobbies of all sorts can help us to be mentally and physically healthier people for ourselves and our loved ones. By choosing to spend time on engaging activities that we truly enjoy, we are more likely to be the best version of ourselves. Too often we end up either just passing the time or prioritizing everyone else's needs above our own.
