Events

This can be an emotional course and a willingness to share with others is important. It is not necessary to reveal personal issues but the attendees must be willing to engage with exercises.
The aims: To explore our own resilience to emotional ‘stress’ triggers and methods of minimising the impact of emotional responses.
• To share our own backgrounds and current stress factors
• To understand why we respond to stress
• To practice tools to help reduce stress
• To know where to turn to for more advice and information.
