Professional Development 3: How Do You Bounce Forward?
In your studies and work, you will encounter some thresholds, pitfalls, and other ravines that you may need to climb out of. Here, you will learn how to cope with these issues by increasing your own resilience.
Objectives: Objectives for professional development session 3 are based on Positive Psychology Resilience Frameworks. Anita and Janine share interactive “mindful”, “grit”, “optimism”, “gratitude” and "self-compassion" exercises as a guide to:
1. create your own best strategies for resilience
2. apply them in your personal and professional lives.
Note: Wear comfortable shoes - we will be in the garden. This session includes a brief "mindful walk"/soundscape.
