Are you and your family stressed?
Today’s parents and children are living with greatly increased levels of daily stress as compared to any earlier generation. How can parents differentiate between healthy and unhealthy levels - and respond in helpful and appropriate ways? Join us to explore definitions and warning signs, and to learn strategies that can be individually tailored to suit your own family needs. We will focus first on assessment and planning, and then practice some evidence-based techniques for reducing stress while increasing physical and emotional well-being.Presenter:
