Description

This event is funded through ReCAST II Mecklenburg, a SAMHSA-funded grant initiative.*
When our stress reaches a critical point, it can be hard to reset. Join us for an engaging, uplifting session where you will learn about building resilience, raw coping power, and stress management.

This training is designed to teach participants about the important factors that contribute to building resiliency. It provides easy to use and practical skills for identifying and reducing stress at home and work. In addition, participants learn how to use stress as a positive resource for resilience and thriving.

Participants will receive a workbook with exercises they can keep using to identify life-style and coping-style strengths, create ongoing goals for addressing stress, and learn mind-body tools for adapting a positive mind-set in the face of stress. The training is based on the book Raw Coping Power: From Stress to Thriving by Dr. Joel Bennett and evidence-based research.
