Relax Your Mind - 6/10/04
It’s back to work after the holiday
season has ended, though a recent article
in the Sunday Times has reported that
stress related problems can reduce
business profits by up to 10%. Current
estimates suggest that UK employers lose
£20 billion from missed deadlines,
sick pay and poor performance.
- “Your workweek will go much
more smoothly if you take some time
on Monday morning to write your anxieties
away. Appointments, to-do lists, deadlines
— get these out of your head and
onto paper and you'll feel the stress
fade away. Check items off throughout
the week and see how much you accomplish.”
- "Taking your shoes off when walking
around the office, or when sitting at
your desk can be very rejuvenating and
helpful for sore feet. For extra relief
for backaches and headaches, try this
easy, under the desk technique: Place
a golf ball or rolling pin on the floor
under your feet. While sitting, roll
the sole of each foot over the ball
or rolling pin.”
“Excerpt from the book, "Office
Spa: Stress Relief for the Working Week"
(Chronicle Books). “
