Abstract

A method and system for reducing stress in a working environment. In a conditioning phase a positive association of a sensory stimulus, such as a scent, image and/or sound with a relaxed feeling is created. Following the creation of this positive association the 'relaxing' stimulus will be used as a de-stressor in the usage phase. That is, when it is detected that the user is stressed, the 'relaxing' stimulus is released to reduce stress.
