Let’s Talk Wellness Series:

January 14: Let’s Manage Stress
What is stress?  How does it impact our physical and mental health?  Learning about stress and how it can affect you is the first step in becoming aware of how to better deal with negative stressors.  What may work for you to manage stress usually takes time and practice.  We will also talk about the positive side to stress and how being aware of what stresses us out can lead to our values and purpose in life.

January 21: Let’s Live Resiliently
What does it mean to have psychological resilience?  When we have the ability to mentally or emotionally cope with a crisis or to return to pre-crisis status quickly, we have the ability to protect ourselves from the potential negative effects of stressors. We are not born resilient and it takes work and awareness to use your mental processes and behaviors to become resilient.  In this session we will discuss a few different practices to understand this concept and master these skills.
