We all feel stress from time to time, whether from work or our personal lives!

Join us for an alumni-led presentation and discussion about stress: defining stress (e.g., eustress and distress), how stress impacts your body, and how to make modifications to your daily routine and environment to achieve optimal levels of stress preventing burnout and increasing productivity. The discussion may include information on ergonomics, sensory strategies, executive functioning skills, and stress management techniques.
