Description. 

In the past, the early childhood field was mostly child development focused. We now know through more research and especially in these past recent years of the Covid experience, how our mental health is critical to continue to do the important work we do. In this workshop, you will gain a better understanding of mental health, how our mental health can affect those around us and the children we work with. We will also take time to discuss the importance of taking care of ourselves and strategies to use for ourselves and in the classroom.

Self-Care: Introduction to Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes

Free

with Jen Marks

Calendar Mar 21, 2024 at 6:30 pm

Description. 

Multiple mental health conditions, including depression and anxiety, can be treated with certain lifestyle changes as successfully as diseases such as diabetes and obesity, according to Roger Walsh, M.D., PhD. of the University of California, Irvine’s College of Medicine. ‘Therapeutic lifestyle changes’ (or TLCs) include exercise, nutrition and diet, relationships, recreation, relaxation and stress management, religious or spiritual involvement, spending time in nature, and service to others. Research describes TLCs as effective, inexpensive and often enjoyable, with fewer side effects and complications than medications. Now more than ever, educators have one of the highest levels of stress in day-to-day activities, leading to burnout and a significant decrease of individuals entering the profession. This training focuses on the needs of adults in our classrooms, specifically providing strategies that can calm in the moment and provide lifelong positive effects to our wellbeing. Walk away with a plan to implement at least one therapeutic lifestyle change to bring balance to your physical, mental and social emotional health.
