Greetings,

 

Welcome to another edition of the CARE Services Newsletter. CARE Services is the free and confidential Employee Assistance Program for UC Berkeley faculty, staff, post-docs and visiting scholars.

 

In this issue, we are highlighting the workshops we will be offering throughout this spring semester.  We hope these offerings will allow you to take some time away from the bustling activity on campus to replenish and gain a fresh perspective.

 

We would like to draw attention to two newly added workshops,  "Leading Change," a workshop specifically for supervisors and managers, and "Resilience and Renewal," for all employees. Both of these workshops will be offered at various times over the semester, please check the dates below.

 

For additional resources and information about our services, please be sure to check out the Quick Links, in the left side bar.

 

Regards,

With a brief intro to EFT, this class will focus on learning and practicing EFT tapping protocols in greater depth for specific stress-related problems. The Introduction class is not required.

Developing Resiliency

Tuesday, Apr. 26, 12:10-1:30 pm, Tang Ed Center

 

During times of stress and adversity, having inner resiliency can be a buffer for these challenging periods. This workshop will present various perspectives and tools that build emotional resiliency and explore how this can help manage stress.

 

Resilience and Renewal

Wed, Mar 30 or Thur, April 21 or Wed, May 18 or Thur, June 23

9:00 am - 12:00 noon, 24 University Hall

 

External stressors are real, yet how we choose to view, experience and manage them is an internal process. To maintain a healthy level of stress, we must go beyond the techniques we use to handle stress in the moment and work toward establishing practices that align with our beliefs and value system. This workshop will define resilience, examine common traits of resilient people, and explore ways to strengthen our own resiliency skills. We will introduce the concept of managing our energy instead of managing our time as the foundation for healthy practices, high performance, and sustained personal renewal.

Sponsored by CARE Services and COrWE.
