Workplace Application:
Learn how to greatly reduce the stress in your life and recover rapidly from reversals in your professional or personal life. 

Workplace stress is at an all-time high, but it is possible to greatly reduce and even eliminate it. Most people believe that their stress is caused by finances, relationship problems, health issues, career concerns and other factors, but this is false. While such factors do exist, they can be dealt with effectively and efficiently without experiencing high levels of stress. Resilience is the ability to bounce back after a reversal. Stress and resilience are related: those who do not feel stressed are more likely to be resilient, and vice versa. The key is to change our mental models of stress, resilience and life itself. This session shows you how to identify these models and make appropriate changes.

Learning Objectives:

  • The real reason we feel stress (about which most people are dead wrong).
  • Five proven methods to significantly reduce stress.
  • Two proven methods to cultivate resilience.
  • Exercises to make you happier as a person as joy comes flooding back into your life.
