Promotional Stress Balls to Ease the Stresses of The Seasonal Period

Christmas is the most stressful time of the year, the last things you want as a company is people off of work with Christmas stress, so distribute promotional stress balls this year to increase productivity and morale within your office.

The British economy loses over thirteen million working days every year due to stress-related absences. This is something which many businesses can't afford over Christmas, particularly if they work within the retail sector or customer service sector. Stress is also linked to many other more serious illnesses which means that it needs to be combated as soon as symptoms occur.

There are three different types of stress which could occur, acute, episodic acute and chronic. Chronic stress is by far the most serious of the three. Acute stress is the most common and can be managed and treated. However, acute stress needs to be treated as soon as symptoms develop to ensure it doesn't develop further.

For many of us, stress is a part of every day life. Different factors involving family, friends or work can all make a stressful situation. Consider how many times you hear people say 'I'm stressed', the majority of the time it is not a medical condition, but it can develop into one.

Helping your employees cope with stress, or taking away stressful parts of their jobs can help. Not only can it help to build a relationship with employees, but it can also help to increase productivity and boost morale. So how can you do this and particularly at Christmas time?

The simple answer is through giving away promotional stress balls. Stress balls are a very simple way to get rid of stress and tension and are proven to work. By simply squeezing a ball you can release tense in your muscles, releasing tension and allowing you to relax. There are many other ways you can help your employees to relieve stress including through yoga and pilates, but this is by far more cost-effective and proven to work over the years.

There are various designs of stress balls and toys on the Total Merchandise website. You could choose a custom Christmas design or a design which is relevant to your brand which will help to create brand awareness. Whatever design you do choose, make sure you use promotional stress balls this Christmas to eradicate stress and keep up morale.
