This workshop will explore the psychological, emotional, and physical impacts of stress and the importance of self-care. We will look at the implications that lifestyle and existing risk factors have on stress and stress management. Throughout the workshop participants will practice techniques they can use in their own lives and to help those they work with such as journaling, simple chair yoga, and breathing exercises. Participants will take away strategies for working with youth, as well as new ways to care for themselves in these challenging times and moving forward.
