REIKI, ACUPRESSURE & chair yoga IN the workplace
The human body is not designed to live under daily stress. Chronic stress weakens the immune system, is highly inflammatory to the tissues and organs, causes depression, anxiety, and is a major factor in approximately 85% of all visits to the doctor. If left untempered, stress can lead to catastrophic results. Needless to say, stress affects people not only on an internal and personal level, but is a filter for all of their actions and performance at work.

Some statistics from FORBES Magazine:
“Employees suffering from high stress levels have lower engagement, are less productive and have higher absenteeism levels than those not working under excessive pressure, according to research from professional services firm Towers Watson.
“The Global Benefits Attitudes survey found that levels of workplace disengagement significantly increase when employees experience high levels of stress. The study of 22,347 employees across 12 countries including the UK and US, revealed that over half of those employees claiming to be experiencing high stress levels reported they were disengaged. By contrast, only one in ten employees claiming low stress levels reported they were disengaged and half of this group claimed to be highly engaged.
“The research clearly showed the destructive link between high levels of stress and reduced productivity, remarked Rebekah Haymes, senior consultant and wellbeing specialist at Towers Watson. “A third of respondents said they are often bothered by excessive pressure in their job and this can lead to higher instances of disengagement and absenteeism –clear indicators of low productivity in the workplace.”
“Absence levels were also influenced by stress with highly stressed employees taking an average of 4.6 sick days per year compared to 2.6 days for employees reporting low stress levels. ‘Presenteeism’-the phrase used to describe attending work when unwell and unproductive was 50% higher for highly stressed employees with an average of 16 day per year versus around 10 days for employees claiming low stress levels.”
