Stress is said to be responsible for more than half of the 550,000,000 workdays lost every year, just from absenteeism, not even stress related illness. A million workers a day are estimated to miss work due to stress problems.
Friend Your Body Founder and Owner Melissa Koerner, author of the "Get Fit On the Go" feature, is transforming lives with her positive message. She's pictured here at our recent Greenerpalooza event at the Meadowbrook U.S. Cellular Pavilion.
Recognizing the vital link between healthy habits and success at work, the New Hampshire Division of Economic Development has joined together with Merrimack, NH-based Friend Your Body to unveil a new monthly web feature called “Get Fit on the Go.” This feature will not only discuss the ways that busy business professionals can decrease stress and develop healthier workout and eating habits, it will also demonstrate how simple, daily improvements can result in a healthy body for life.
These blog posts will be authored by Friend Your Body Owner Melissa Koerner, a fitness and nutrition coach whose business educates, inspires, and empowers women to take charge of their lives by transforming their health.
