Navigating Anxiety in Turbulent Times

April 23, 2020, 10:00 - 11:00 AM

 

Everything has changed; our priorities, our daily routines, and our ability to connect. Many of us are working from home but as sweet as that sounds, this too adds a level of stress and expectation that has great potential to impact our mental health. Naturally, we are experiencing heightened anxiety as we practice distancing and cope with the ever-present threat of the unknown. This webinar will explore key areas for building resilience and staying emotionally and mentally healthy with a practical approach to adapting as workers and caregivers. In these turbulent times, it is important to be aware of our stressors, accept an ever-changing reality and be compassionate towards ourselves and others.
