Wellness and Resilience: Build on your personalized set of strategies and skills that you can apply to your life now and in the future
Research has shown that individuals who develop and use resilience strategies and emotion regulation skills (such as opposite action, relaxation strategies, mindfulness, and practicing gratitude) as well as build positive routines (for example, good eating and sleep habits, daily exercising, scheduling fun activities) are more likely to be effective in their job roles, involved in strong relationships, physically and mentally healthy, and satisfied with their lives overall. We’ll discuss choosing attention and practicing gratitude, identifying unhelpful thoughts, and managing negative emotions. Finally, we’ll learn about the importance of connecting with others in meaningful ways and therapeutic lifestyle changes that we can make to positively impact our lives and strengthen our resilience.
