08:00-08:45 Yin Yoga (ENG + NL)
A calm form of yoga where postures are held so that the muscles can relax. A nice morning opener for those who sit a lot.
09:00-09:20 Coffee corner (ENG + NL)
Besides not being able to go the Leiden University or the LUMC for work, you also miss daily contact with colleagues during this period. Human contact is an essential part of your daily work and keeping in touch with others benefits your work. Research has shown that social support is also important for reducing symptoms of stress. People with a strong social network have a higher life expectancy and a better immune sustem. During the Healthy University Week 2020 we organize Kaltura Coffee Breaks. A nice way to start a conversation with familiar and / or new colleagues while enjoying a cup of coffee or tea. Do you like networking? Are you new at Leiden University or the LUMC? Or do you just want to chat? Use the Kaltura Coffee Breaks to expand your network or meet new people. Register and receive the link to participate!

14:30-15:30 Workshop: Stress Less (ENG)
The workshop starts with a short stress test and an explanation of what stress is. The fact that one person experiences stress while another, in the same situation, is not bothered by it, shows that stress is a personal experience. The employee learns to recognize his own stress pattern and how to deal with it. In the workshop, the employee becomes aware of the burden and learns how to increase the bearing capacity. Employees who can relax well are less absent, work more concentrated and safer and run less risk of dropping out prematurely.
