Mark Smith Spoke on Workplace Stress and Anxiety on February 10, 2025
We talked about understanding the stress and anxiety many of us have coming from our work. Mark offered ideas on time management and project management to help reduce stress. We discussed the range of emotions around stress including anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. Mark explained a simple meditation practice of closing your eyes and picturing a relaxing place. Then breathing the eights. On a slow count of four, pausing briefly and breathing out slowly finishing counting to eight. Doing this for just two minutes can lower your pulse and help you feel calm.
Mark Smith received his third Paul Harris award representing over $3000 in contributions to the Rotary Foundation. Tom McCutcheon presented the award.
On Monday Nancy Hernandez of the Hispanic coalition spoke to us about the Latino community in Milwaukee.
