Understanding & Managing Stress
Short workshop introducing strategies to feel more in control
Workshop overview:
Feeling stressed? You’re not alone.
Life can often feel overwhelming — work, family, money, responsibilities, and everything in between. This workshop provides an opportunity to understand stress a little more and develop strategies that can help us manage our stress and feel a little more in control.
During the 90-minute session, we will explore:
What is stress
Causes of stress
How stress affects our bodies
Strategies for managing stress
Workshop format:
Understanding & Managing Stress is a workshop consisting of 1 x 1.5-hour online session. The workshop is hosted by our Recovery Practitioner staff and Support Volunteers, who will guide attendees through presentations focused on stress. The online format will include discussion through group chat, breakout rooms, text chat, and we will allow time for questions. A member of staff will be available on Teams 30 minutes before the start of the sessions to support with any technical difficulties. This workshop is free to attend, and registration is required to join.
