Did you know that stress resilience skills are different than stress management skills? Stress resilience skills are "proactive" tools used when stress is low or high. One of the best things about these tools is they help us bounce back quickly from a stressful event.
In this 60-minute class, you will learn about contributing factors that increase stress resilience skills and different ways to incorporate stress resilience skills, like positive emotions, into your life. When we take time to incorporate these skills and concepts in our life, stress will decrease and quality of life will increase!
This class is taught by licensed clinical social worker, Amanda Helsley.
