Managing a stressful lifestyle is an essential part of life today.  Firstly, we need to be able to recognise stress, then know how best to manage it.  This course is an introduction to a range of relaxation techniques and provides opportunities to experience a variety of relaxation and meditation tools.  You will learn how to identify stress in yourself and others, life tools for minimising stress, physical and mental techniques for relaxation, and different styles of meditation.
