Topic: Coping with Uncertainty: Skills for dealing with pandemic stress while completing your degree

 

COVID-19 continues to bring huge interruptions to our lives.  This also inevitably comes with stress around the unknown and uncertainty.  Frustration, anxiety, confusion and fear are running our lives, causing us to feel overwhelmed and leaving us struggling to cope with it all. 

 

This 50 minute workshop is intended to assist you in navigating all this uncertainty, along with helping you to develop skills in managing issues like stress, anxiety, and plummeting mood that are a result of the changes COVID-19 has created.
