So you are manager at a large corporation, and you have several employees under you. What can you do for your employees that won't cost anything, and that still helps with morale, physical, mental and emotional well-being in your employees and productivity all around? You can bring in breathing exercises and other stress relieving activities into the workplace, of course.
Stress, anxiety, tension – you hear these words bandied about all the time these days. But it isn't just some kind of popular hype that everyone's agreed to believe in. There have been studies done by the American Psychological Association and published in their Stress in America report that show that not only do one out of two Americans feel stress in the workplace, but that the numbers are really growing quickly. Since it's pretty clear in all kinds of studies that a stressed-out employee is a less productive employee, it really wouldn't hurt to introduce a few stress relieving activities in the office.
If you find that you have little patience for this kind of thing, all you need to do is to bring in the simplest stress relieving activities of them all – breathing techniques.
