Why this workshop is valuable

No-one could have foreseen the challenges we overcame in 2020.  We have all found our way through.  Most of us have experienced our resources being depleted as we find ways to cope with whatever demands we have faced – and continue to face.

Taking time for self-care enables us to rebuild these resources.  We can help ourselves by finding ways to make this a non-negotiable part of our routine, in whatever way is practical in our world.

Outcomes

  • Increase understanding of what we mean by psychological (mental) wellbeing and the impact of stress
  • Identify simple ways in which we can help ourselves overcome obstacles to prioritising self-care
  • Know that self-care is not a luxury, but a priority, to ensure we have the physical and mental resources we need to be able to do everything else.

During this practical participative session we identify the main ways we can include self-care into our lives – however much or little time available.  Using these ideas, we build a tailored self-care plan

Take this hour to think about how you can build your resources to be in the best place to meet and overcome them and maximise your wellbeing and resourcefulness.

Feedback from attendees at previous sessions:

  • Great session. Came away with a fabulous framework to pull a self-care plan together
  • Really pragmatic session, I felt both challenged and supported
  • I felt the session was absolutely amazing and insightful
