In the US we have Take Back your Time Day. The UK will have its first Stress Down Day tomorrow Thursday, February 1st.
If your office has a sense of humor and/or a creative bent try wearing slippers to work.
Obviously if you are working on a construction site, slippers are not advisable.
Other activities suggested are cutting down on e-mail and blackberry use, switching from coffee to fruit smoothies and creating a stress free zone.
Firefly Tonics even created a Chill Out Drink for the occasion.
Besides helping everyone reflect on the health hazards of ‘bad’ stress, the event will raise funds for British charity Samaritans.
