March Employee Wellness Offerings Focus on Sleep

Getting enough high-quality sleep may be as important to health and well-being as nutrition and physical activity, but sometimes the pace of modern life barely allows us time to stop and rest. It can make getting a good night’s sleep on a regular basis seem like a dream. The good news is, we can take control over our sleep habits. Sleep experts say there is ample evidence to show that when people get the sleep they need, they not only feel better, but also increase their odds of living healthier, more productive lives.

Employee Wellness is here to support you in learning how to prioritize sleep with March programming focused on sleep and health. Employee Wellness is offering two webinars in March that focus on the relationship between sleep and weight and mindfulness exercises to promote rest. If it’s your finances keeping you up at night, join us for a webinar about saving for retirement.

If you are interested in working one-on-one with a mindfulness coach, financial counselor, or an expert in the area of healthy sleep, call your Impact Solutions Employee Assistance Program (EAP) at 800-227-6007. To learn more about the EAP and available services, you can take a virtual tour of Impact Solutions on March 15.
