Managing Stress with Emotional Freedom Techniques
Presentation Description:
Let's face it, as with many other professions and areas of work, stress is also present in the healthcare field.
For sonographers, higher patient volumes, short-staff departments and potential repetitive strained injuries, among others, add to our stress level which not only affects us professionally but also in our personal life.
Several tools exist to help us manage our stress levels. One of them is Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), also known as tapping.
In this interactive SonoWebinar, you'll learn about EFT from Genoveva Vazquez, EFT practitioner, self-love and wealth coach, who will demonstrate how EFT can be used as a simple yet effective stress-managing tool which can be easily incorporated in the workplace and life.
Speaker: Genoveva Vazquez
