Breath of Life: Strategies for Stress Reduction
The safety procedures while flying on an airplane include putting on an oxygen mask if the cabin pressure changes. You are instructed to tighten your mask first before helping children or those around you. Stress reduction works in much the same way. Taking care of yourself first provides the energy and vitality to care for others. In this workshop you will learn what stress is, how it affects you and what you can do about it. Specific techniques are taught for relaxation, breathing and meditation in class as well as a process for making these positive changes a part of your every day life.

This course will help you identify and overcome your specific fears as well as address the basic elements of public speaking such as gestures, voice, body movement and speech organization.
