Managing Stress & Beating Burnout

Join via zoom here - https://aila-org-au.zoom.us/j/84897775309

Stress is ubiquitous in modern life, but under-addressed, and clouded by unhelpful myths and strategies that don't work. When stress goes on for long enough without being effectively managed, it results in burnout. This session will address the burnout myths, explain why common strategies don't work, provide you with effective stress management tools you can experiment with, and give you practical strategies to work from home in a way that supports your wellbeing. You will receive some extra information and frameworks you can use afterwards to assist you in putting these measures into practice.
