Abstract

"23% (6.6 million) of Canadians aged 15 and older reported that most days were ‘quite a bit’ or ‘extremely stressful’ (2013, Stats Canada)."   

Students are expected to be good learners, and be "successful", while professors, teachers are expected to be the best teachers to attract new students, to be "successful" as well while leading innovative research projects. Meeting expectations is felt as source of stress, of tensions. All suffer the stress of having to be on time, with all duties perfectly done, of succeeding on all exams, research projects etc..  I will discuss  details of these drivers, their mechanics, the role of time and a way to balance their impact  through attention and presence. Everyone is welcome to participate.
