Grab a notebook and a PB&J for this monthly lunchtime webinar series presented on Zoom!

This month's topic is "Handling Life’s Stressful Situations."

More stressed than usual? That is totally normal, but what can you do about it? In this workshop led by Maggie Downie (founder of Personal Euphoria), we’ll review different types of stress responses and some of the positive attributes of stress (that’s right, it’s not all bad). Then we will discuss exercise, posture, and breathing options for stress relief. All moves in this workshop are gentle. More rigorous options are discussed.

Maggie Downie is the founder of Personal Euphoria, a fitness and wellness company, where she has been helping her clients reduce pain since 2005. Maggie lives in Connecticut and enjoys doing planks in different parts of the world, climbing mountains, and eating chocolate.  She has a degree in history, was a former teacher, wrote Keep Moving: Take Steps to Relieve Pain & Improve Your Life, is certified in Pilates, and has viral videos with over 51 million hits.  You can watch her monthly on NBC CT Live in her recurring wellness segment.  She has written for the Christian Science Monitor, the Hartford Courant, and Idea Health & Wellness.
