HAVE YOU EVER...
Holidays provide an opportunity for celebration, gift-giving, reflection, tradition, relationship and spiritual renewal, and relaxation. The key to success in avoiding 'Holiday Blues' or 'Holiday Stress' is to recognize those activities that energize, motivate, and please us, and to delete or change those activities that irritate, disappoint, and anger us.
This lively stress management workshop helps participants to identify their top sources and causes of holiday and vacation stress and aids them in developing practical coping strategies based on the S-O-S Principle™.
This is a great workshop to offer in October - before Thanksgiving and the Christmas season, and before summer vacation gets into full swing.

“…Beverly’s presentation was excellent – the topic was extremely relevant and the presentation was polished and professional. She connected with the audience and based on the very positive feedback from the attendees re this session, motivated them to reevaluate how they currently handle multiple demands in an ever-changing environment and to consider new strategies for managing both their own stress and that of the employees reporting to them. I would certainly consider hiring Beverly again and would not hesitate to recommend her to others…”
