COVID-19 has profoundly impacted our normal lives, causing feelings of confusion, stress and fear. Now more than ever, it is important to take care of our mental health. One important way is to better understand how our nervous systems respond to these feelings, and to adopting strategies that soothe our nervous systems.

Event Description

In this workshop, we’ll talk about how your nervous system responds to stress and threat, and how understanding this can help you be more intentional and effective in your self-care. This interactive workshop will incorporate mindfulness and breathing activities throughout the hour, and you will leave with concrete next steps and a self care plan.
