Stress-Less At Work, with Jacqueline Lopez
Jacqueline Lopez, a graduate researcher at the University of Nevada, Reno, discusses the impact of stress on mental health and work performance. She emphasizes the importance of time management, setting realistic goals, and creating boundaries between work and personal life to manage stress. Jacqueline highlights the role of mindfulness practices, social support, and self-care in reducing stress. She also addresses the negative effects of unmanaged stress, such as burnout and physical health issues. Resources like Headspace, Calm, and the National Alliance on Mental Illness are recommended for stress management. The conversation underscores the need for transparency with supervisors and seeking professional help when stress becomes overwhelming. To learn more, visit AVID.org/alumni.
