Being good at stress management is important in today’s hectic world. Managing stress and maintaining stable mental health should be top of everyone’s priority list. If you have a hectic life and busy schedule, you probably know how easy it is for life to get on top of you; in fact, millions of sick days are lost to stress every year.

If you’re an employer looking to improve your team’s ability to deal with work-related stress, or you’d simply like to improve your own coping mechanisms when life’s pressures get too much, then this flexible stress management course is ideal.

You’ll explore techniques to help you cope with stress, considering the role of relaxation, nutrition and diet, self-esteem, and managing time.

You’ll be able to identify the symptoms of stress and learn how this might affect you physically, emotionally, and mentally. You won’t need any previous experience or qualifications to enrol, and you’ll work in your own time and at a pace that suits you – ideal if you fit your studies around work and family commitments.
