Helpful Habits
Helpful habits, rituals and structure can be a piece of our stress management puzzle. Many of us find familiar routines and rituals helpful particularly when change or uncertainty strikes. How can we create useful habits in the first place? Where can we find sources of meaning in our familiar rituals? And how can we maintain these better habits long–term? Monday, 11:30 am – 1:00 pm

Book Three:
Decluttering
“Tidy home, tidy mind” has been around since the late 1940s and it’s a cliché for a reason. Perhaps you find it hard to relax when there’s mess around you? Or your brain feels like it’s bursting at the seams with all the overthinking you’ve been doing? For many of us there is a relationship between our living or working environment and our mental wellbeing. Let’s explore what strategies we can put in place for a mental de–clutter. Monday, 11:30 am – 1:00 pm

Learning From Each Other
Life is a learning curve. Our brains are always storing away new bits of information and we grow when we learn from our mistakes. There are multiple avenues for learning, but most often we turn to Google. We all forget that those around us are a resource for learning too. So, what can we learn from each other and how we can share our own knowledge? Monday, 11:30 am – 1:00 pm

Maintaining Motivation
Motivation can be elusive. We all know the feeling when we need to do something, but we just can’t find the energy. Motivation isn’t static, it ebbs and flows. We may find ourselves less motivated when life is stressful or when the outside world is confusing or disappointing. How can we maintain our levels of motivation? Or learn to maximise the times we feel motivated and give ourselves time to relax when motivation is lower? Monday, 11:30 am – 1:00 pm
