Session: Managing Stress - A Program for Women

In the context of WE LEARN, any pursuit is greatly impacted by a stress-filled lifestyle. If a woman can manage the stress in her life, she can pursue education, career, and community goals with greater ease and with the personal power that comes from taking control of one's life/mind/body. From an alliance-building perspective, women who feel at ease “in their own skin” are more likely to become involved in team/community-oriented environments and movements. This workshop will help participants focus on specific mind-body connection techniques that result in an individual’s healthy physical, emotional, mental, and relational/social outcomes.

  • Stress is at the root of so much. I wonder how much of the work on health literacy deals with stress.
