Resilience and Stress Management

Stress is a fact of life. It is human nature for people to experience stress in certain situations or environments. But why do some people just naturally deal with stress better than others? Some people have naturally high levels of resilience, for others stress can be crippling and for many, it is somewhere in between those two.
Finding better ways to deal with stress and build resilience takes practice, but the good news is, that there are some very effective tools and techniques that can help you better manage stress and develop higher levels of resilience.

I learnt a lot and have already applied many of the skills that I learnt.”

-Kathleen Donohue - 21/07/2023

-Danielle, Elserver

"Thank you Jackie so much again for putting together such an insightful presentation. As I mentioned, the feedback so far has been really positive and a few people I have spoken to in the office today have already made some tweaks to their default settings. Your presentation skills were some of the best I’ve seen, and I was impressed with how you were able to navigate between screens despite the technical challenges. Thank you again!"
