Stressed Out, Burnt Out and Hoping for a Way Out? Resiliency Practices for Professionals Serving Others 

Remaining resilient can be a challenge!

This workshop is designed to give you the tools needed to enhance your resiliency and to embrace self-care. The benefits of healthy stress, indicators of burnout, and secondary stress are explored, as well as understanding and practicing regulation of the nervous system. Other foundational practices that both prevent and promote resiliency will be presented, with engagement from the participants. 

Come ready to engage and re-invigorate!
