In these uncertain times, we need to find ways to be able to remain resilient. In this workshop, we will look to Self-Care as a tool to thrive, as we adapt and navigate the hybrid learning environment.
In this interactive, informative, and practical workshop, participants will be introduced to a multidimensional model of self-care. We will highlight self-care practices to develop and maintain balance. Participants will walk away with ideas and resources for a personal self-care and wellness action plan to help them thrive.
By the end of the workshop, students should be able to:
• Provide a practical framework to approach self-care planning
• Identify new self-care practices to help you thrive
• Learn how to add new self-care practices and eliminate obstacles
