Have you ever heard of bring your dog to work day? Hear us out. Work can be stressful, regardless of your profession, your age, your position or your location. And unfortunately, that stress you experience in your workspace is not limited to your cubicle or office. The career-related stress you feel carries over into all areas of your life, and it can do major damage to your mental, emotional and physical health. According to the American Psychological Association, “along with its emotional toll, prolonged job-related stress can drastically affect your physical health. Constant preoccupation with job responsibilities often leads to erratic eating habits and not enough exercise, resulting in weight problems, high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol levels.”
