Question: Can work negatively impact our health?
Answer: Work can undermine one“s health and happiness when it becomes so serious that we believe that we can not do it; when we have no choice and it suffocates us; it is created on unrealistic objectives that do not address physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Ways to avoid the above situations are: to regularly exercise your creativity and body through exercise and breathing; accepting yourself and your limitations; caring for yourself and being aware of your body`s messages; creating a supportive environment; asking yourself constantly what you want and need; using creative brainstorming to relieve stress; and asserting yourself to make your needs known.
