In partnership with The Al & Malka Green Artists’ Health Centre
Stress is a part of all of our lives and can impact our physical, mental and emotional health. While stress is unavoidable, how we manage it determines its impact on us. In this workshop we will review a variety of self-care strategies, allowing you to take control of your stress.
Facilitated by Leisa Bellmore, Shiatsu Therapist at The Artists’ Health Centre, this one-hour workshop provides an opportunity to learn self-shiatsu, breathing exercises, mindfulness techniques, stretching, and acupressure. All working people can benefit from learning these techniques or wellbeing.
