* Cultivating Resilience During Complex Times (Perkins)

Cultivating Resilience During Complex Times with Dr. Kristen Lee

Thursday, April 8 (2021) from 6 – 8 PM 
This is an online event. Click here to register today!

The global pandemic and escalating mental health crises can take their toll. Resilience is a process of positive adaptation in the face of hardship. As humans, we are wired for it – capable of navigating complexity, remaining agile, and demonstrating optimism. Modern brain science offers a host of strategies for cultivating resilience by leveraging “protective factors” –adopting and practicing mindsets, behaviors, and activities that serve as buffers and help bolster our well-being. Learn ways to engage in self-care that helps nourish and sustain us during intensive times.

We hope you’ll join us for the spring installment of the Conroy Speakers Series (online), featuring internationally recognized, award-winning behavioral science professor, clinician, author, and activist, Dr. Kristen Lee! An email with the event link will be emailed to you prior to the event.
