Hello, Wednesday!
Today is all about anxiety and how to manage it. Anxiety is a normal and often healthy emotion, and can stimulate you to reach your goals. However, it can also lead to restlessness and worry.
Join us today in learning more about anxiety and the best ways for us to manage it in our increasingly busy lives.
