Coping in the COVID-19 Crisis

We all want to be happy and work in a thriving and harmonious workplace. Unfortunately, the reality doesn't always meet our expectations. No matter what your position in the organization is, you can make a positive contribution to the well-being of the workplace. Come along to find out how.

Have you been asked to do shift work but feel leery about the rumours of the many challenges that come with it? Or are you a seasoned shift worker feeling like this gruelling schedule is catching up with you as each shift is filled with increasing errors, brain fog, exhaustion, overwhelm - and even weight gain?

Numerous research has shown shift workers are prone to various chronic health complaints including gastrointestinal complaints, obesity, insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, mental health disorders, depleted immune systems – to name a few.  This stems largely from ongoing sleep deprivation and disruption to the sleep/wake cycle, along with subsequent misalignment of biological circadian rhythms which often induces fatigue, leading to poor dietary and lifestyle habits.
In this webinar, Audra Starkey will explore:
-    Why sleep prioritization is critical for anyone working 24/7
-    Strategies to support the parasympathetic nervous system to encourage better sleep
-    The influence of chrononutrition in the management of shift work wellness
-    Shift work nutrition – eating to support more energy, better digestive health and weight regulation
