THE HOLIDAY

What is Global Hug Your Kids Day?



Global Hug Your Kids Day encourages every mom and father to hug their their children, and loved one, every day. It's listed in Chase's Calendar of Events, published by McGraw-Hill. It is always held the third Monday in July. 

The holiday was founded in 2008 by Michelle Nichols, a 25-year sales veteran and longtime Business Week columnist. Her son, Mark, died suddenly at 8 1/2 years old from brain cancer in 1998.

The 2009 holiday was celebrated in 28 states across the U.S.

Are you stressed out from being too busy at work, home and life?  Are your fellow employees in the same boat? Welcome! We can help you.

Living with high stress is like having a wild tiger in your backyard.
That's why "stress management" doesn't work. You don't want to "manage" the tiger, you want it out of there --  dead or alive!
