The purpose of this course is to help participants increase their understanding of stress and analyze the stressors present in their lives. This course will discuss where our response to stress begins, the different causes of stress and how it impacts individuals both professionally and personally. The course will review data highlighting workplace stress and how it affects people’s overall well-being. Participants will also be able to assess their own stress through self-reflection and awareness exercises as well as explore different models that can give indication of the severity of stress a person may be experiencing.
This course will also help participants to reduce and prevent against stress by introducing coping resources. Through using these resources, participants will become more aware of when they are stressed and will learn how to effectively manage stressful experiences. Participants will also learn how to recognize and assess stress within others in order to effectively support them with what they need to be effective in their work. Through exploring the multiple factors that affect our individual stress, this course will provide participants with the tools to create their own action plan for coping with stress.
