Feeling stressed at work? 😫 You're not alone! Work can be overwhelming, and it's easy to let stress pile up. But self-care is essential for maintaining your well-being and managing the pressure. 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️

When work stress gets to be too much, it's important to take steps to recharge and reset. 🧘‍♂️ Start by setting aside time for yourself each day, even if it's just 15 minutes to meditate, take a walk or simply breathe deeply. 🌿💨 Practising mindfulness can help you feel more grounded and reduce anxiety. Don't forget the basics — stay hydrated, get enough sleep and try to nourish your body with healthy foods. 🍎🥤

If you're finding it hard to cope on your own, your company’s Employee Assistance Program (EAP) can provide valuable support. 🧑‍⚖️👩‍⚕️ EAPs offer confidential counselling, stress management resources and tools to help you navigate tough times at work and in your personal life. Whether it's talking to a professional or getting advice on managing work-life balance, EAP services are there to support your mental health. 🧠💙

Remember, it’s okay to ask for help and take time for yourself. You deserve it! 🌟
