Build Your Resilience

Description

Welcome to Build Your Resilience - a program that gives you strategies to help you reflect, stay calm and relax to build your ability to bounce back when the going gets tough at work. Work can be rewarding - but it can also be really stressful at times and we all need strategies and practices that helps us stay calm and build our resilience for the long term.

In this program we’ll introduce you to Mindfulness - what it is and how to practice it. We’ll also help you build your “Third Space” - a mindfulness technique to help you quickly decompress in between stressful situations, by teaching you how to Reflect, Rest and Reset for recovery. We’ll then give you some healthy exercise, nutrition and sleep practices to manage your energy to reduce stress and develop resilience. And, if you need help managing your nutrition and sleep, we give you a Food and Sleep Journal to help you keep track of and be mindful of how you’re managing your energy. Lastly, we’ll give you some techniques that really work for calming you down when you, or the world around you, is stressed and out of control.

To what extent are you aware of your feelings and thoughts? Are you able to pay attention to the present moment to calm your mind and react constructively in stressful situations? Or, do you find yourself spinning out of control, unable to quiet your mind? Are you able to move calmly from one stressful situation to another, or do you find yourself carrying stress from home to work (or vice versa)? Do you have plenty of energy to manage life’s stresses or do you often find yourself tired, listless or responding out of proportion to a situation? Do you have a suite of practices that help calm you down when you feel stressed, or could you use some new tools to help you cope with day to day life? This program is for you if you often feel stressed and anxious at work and are looking for some strategies that you can adopt to reduce your level of stress. You might even find that your stress at or about work is impacting your personal life. If that’s the case, now is the time to take action.

And, at the end of the program, you’ll create your own Personal Change Plan to put into practice the strategies covered in this program to sustainably build your resilience.
