Gratitude
reduces stress?! Improves
one’s sleep?!
2
– 3:30 pm Wed, Apr 22, online
This
interactive online workshop will focus on some practices that help students to
channel their gratitude during challenging times and reduce stress.
Over
the past decade, psychology researchers have noted the great social,
psychological, and physical health benefits that come from giving thanks. The
simple act of writing down the things for which we are grateful has been shown
to provide benefits including better sleep, fewer symptoms of illness, increased
happiness and reduced anxiety. No expertise required.
The
initial interactive online workshop will be led by poet and registered
psychotherapist Ronna Bloom. In the weeks that follow participants can regroup
online to share highlights from their gratitude journals and encourage and
support each other in their writing and in their efforts to cope and thrive
during these challenging times.
