Stress Management Programme

This online stress management programme seeks to help you reduce your stress levels over three short sessions. The first two sessions must be completed in the first week of the programme, and the third session will be completed in the second week. 

 

Each Session is broken down into a number of individual Lessons, which will be delivered in the form of videos and mindfulness exercises. After each Lesson, you will be asked one or two questions about the topics discussed, in order to ensure you understand the material that is being covered.

 

At the end of each Session, you will also be asked to complete a brief Feedback Form, in which you can tell us what your thoughts are on the programme.
