Custom Stress Balls in the Workplace

It’s okay, you don’t have to pretend… Modern life is stressful, right?

Everyone feels it from time to time – the stress caused by balancing home and work lives simultaneously, with the pressures of both bearing down as we try to achieve a meaningful contribution to the world day after day. Dealing sensibly with stress is actually one of the most important things anyone can do to make their lives better - and for many that could mean some sort of regular fix like a holiday, some time out socializing or a workout in the gym. Even therapy. For others - the majority - a small and manageable micro-activity each day can really help - and this is where stress balls come into their own.

Stress balls are small ‘squidgy’ items you hold in your hand and squeeze. They’re made of firm but soft and pliable material which will return to its original shape when your grip is loosened. The idea is that your body forces down its stressful feelings into the simple act of squeezing balls, which leaves the rest of your mind able to cope and get through difficult or demanding situations. Stress balls can also prevent injury and stress related ailments such as tendonitis and carpal tunnel syndrome – so the therapeutic effects of stress balls are both mental and physical. They’re a really simple but effective way to keep a grip on things.

For any business or organization looking at using promotional items to market themselves and raise brand awareness, custom stress balls are truly effective. There are many different shapes and sizes available, and a huge range of stress balls available in ‘novelty’ form (such as footballs, baseballs, basketballs or even foods etc.). All of the customized stress balls available from EverythingBranded can be printed with the logo of your business or organization, so will position your brand right there in people’s hands, day after day. They’re also cost effective – so you won’t be blowing your budget.
