From Stress to Strength: Leveraging your experience, identity, and values to build resilience and gain hope

Presented by: Reverend Dean Shapley, Director of Mission and Chaplaincy, Lowell General Hospital and Circle Health

Tuesday, October 26, 2021
9:00am - 10:00am
Zoom Seminar
The pandemic has changed our world in many ways, both on the personal and societal level. Changes in employment, employment practices, finances, social connection, parenting and family dynamics, health, uncertainty about the future, and personal loss and grief have led to levels of stress, fatigue, and burnout that have become difficult to manage. Being aware of the sources of stress, knowing what to expect, and learning practical ways to mitigate it – and especially being able to openly discuss and process these shared experiences – can help us to move forward in our personal and professional lives with effective tools, and perhaps even hope.

During this seminar you will:

See the Mental Health data from the last year and a half
Understand the root causes of stress and the different levels of stress response
Be able to recognize the normal physical, emotional, and behavioral symptoms of stress
Learn short- and long-term ways to alleviate stress, based on core principles
Make plans to create a work environment where a focus on mental wellness becomes the norm
Find resources to support wellness and emotional health
