All webinars are highly interactive, participative and immediately applicable to your professional and/or private context.
We will use peer learning, individual reflection and additional learning resources such as videos, articles and learning guides.
Webinars will be recorded for participants’ use and further immersion. The programme concludes with an individual action plan to carry your learning forward. Furthermore, you will receive additional personalised support in a follow-on group mentoring session.
By taking this programme you will have an opportunity to understand – and act on – what being well means to you. You will be encouraged to strengthen your own resilience in daily life. And you’ll use real challenges to learn to listen to your own responses to stress, and to recognise the cost of stress to individuals and organisations. You’ll discover how to create choices about how to respond to difficult situations.
Building resilience will become an inviting proposition and a welcome daily practice. You will better identify strategies and habits that support positive mental wellbeing.
Your sense of being well is vital to thriving in a challenging and uncertain world. You are invited to explore ways to build inner resources to manage circumstances with calm, confidence and strength.
Each course requires a minimum of 6 attendees, please email us with expressions of interest and we will be in touch as soon as dates are available. Thank you.
