Event Description:

Current events impact many aspects of our daily lives. While you can’t fully control what happens in the world at large, you can determine how you respond to yourself and others in the aftermath of distressing news by prioritizing your well-being and taking productive action.

In this free workshop from Employee Assistance Provider Lyra Health, you’ll learn research-supported tools to take care of yourself during difficult times, reduce in-the-moment distress, and know when support from a mental health professional is the right next step. This webinar will also include a guided mindfulness exercise.
