Protecting Yourself From Stress

Thursday, February 22, 2024 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm EST (GMT -05:00)

A drop-in interactive session to brainstorm options to overcome challenges, feelings of anxiety, learning from mistakes, and support network building.

Let’s face it, life is stressful. We all juggle personal, family, social, financial, work, and school demands. Most of us do well, but any of us could be blindsided by an unexpected crisis or overwhelmed when stressors start to pile up. Some stressors may diminish over time, while others may become more prominent. During this session, you’ll explore factors that could test your resilience and cause stress. The protective strategies suggested can help protect you from the harmful impacts of stress and enhance your ability to cope when a crisis does occur. Brainstorming options to overcome challenges, taking action when you feel paralyzed by fear or worry, learning from your mistakes, and building a network of support are just some of the protective strategies to consider. Creating a plan may not help us avoid the crisis but can make it easier to get through it. Join us for this interactive session. No need to register, just drop-in. Snacks will be provided. Please feel free to bring your own refillable water bottle, coffee/tea/etc.
