REMAINING DATES FOR SEMESTER II:

March 6, March 9, April 10 and April 23rd, 2013 from 12pm-1pm.

Currently this USNH/UNH HR program is for benefits eligible employees only but you do NOT have to be enrolled in Harvard Pilgrim Health Care to register and participate.

The StressEraser is a small portable FDA regulated biofeedback device, about the size of a deck of cards, used by many people to mitigate stress by activating the relaxation response.  Guiding the user through a series of simple breathing exercises, relaxation can occur within 15 minutes, calming the mind and relaxing the body. 

Cultivating Emotional Balance and Developing Mental Fitness Skills

Life seems to be moving faster and faster, especially at the workplace. With technology enhancing the ability to easily and efficiently stay connected to work 24/7, it also brings with it an inability to detach from tasks, and finding little or no time to renew and refresh ourselves. While cell phones and other electronic equipment keep us wired to the external world our inner environments never find a time to rest. Completing numerous tasks quickly results in feelings of “just getting by” instead of outcomes that make us proud of our endeavors. This continuous cycle compromises the emotional immune system. Stress not only impacts our emotional well-being, its effect takes a toll on our bodies, leading to disorders including hypertension, headaches, backaches, muscle tension, gastrointestinal disorders and compromised immune function. 

 Attendees at their session will be given a StressEraser biofeedback device of their own to take with them.  Employees may keep this device as long as they continue to find it beneficial. When you no longer wish to use it you may return it to UNH HR and we will recycle for another employee.
