Simple Suggestions to Relieve Workplace Stress


Mishell Elliston of eightlim yoga in Central Phoenix offers tips to combat daily work stresses:

Create your work environment:
1. Take breaks throughout the day. It will help clear your mind and relieve pressure. Something as simple as going to the water cooler for a drink may do the trick.

2. Enroll in a noontime or an after-work yoga class. This will give you a chance to unwind and a way to relieve stress.

3. To help your workday go smoothly, try pacing your activities: do more demanding work in the morning, when your energy level is higher, and less demanding work later in the day, when you may be tired.

4. Get to work early or stay late once a week. Vary your routine.

If your stress comes from job insecurity, take stock of yourself. Update your resume and remind yourself of your skills and strengths. Also, make sure you keep up with new developments in your field. This will make you valuable to employers.
