Life Blend
Balancing the demands of work and family can be a difficult job. Most of us juggle a number of important jobs that all require our time and energy. Your roles might include being a spouse, parent, child, sibling, employee, organization member and neighbor. All of these roles carry responsibilities and rewards. But, if we aren’t careful, the stresses and demands of all of these roles can engulf and drain us. In this presentation, attendees will learn how to balance their work life with their personal life, in an effort to avoid burnout.
Self-Care in the Face of Cumulative Trauma
A person does not have to be the victim of an extreme event to experience trauma. When a person’s sense of safety and security is impacted, there is potential for a trauma response. In addition, when a person experiences trauma within multiple contexts, the impact is exponentially powerful. This presentation will help attendees recognize possible reactions to distressing events, especially those that are currently impacting many of us (directly and indirectly) due to societal issues. In addition, attendees will learn what self-care is, learn grounding methods to combat traumatic events and recognize the different effort levels of self-care techniques and how to apply them.
