From March 17th to 24th, 2003, 21 Heath Promotion Managers and Directors from Canada East, gathered at CFB Valcartier for their "Strengthening the Forces" training. They completed two core programs: "weight and wellness" and "stress management."

The PSP Health Promotion professionals, who are responsible for the delivery of these programs, also took the opportunity to discuss delivery issues and exchange best business practices and success stories from their individual bases and wings.

One of the best ways to handle stress is to have a sense of humor. Additionally, one of the top nutrition tips is to drink a lot of water as demonstrated by Health Promotion Directors, Lucie Laflamme of CFB Valcartier (left) and Sharon Poirier of CFB Borden.
