There is an increasing body of research on something psychologists call "resilience", which refers to a person's capacity to bounce back after stress or trauma. Resilience distinguishes the person who is able to take problems and tragedy in stride, putting it all behind him/her, from the person who succumbs to stress, showing emotional and physical signs of burnout or break down. In this 1/2 day workshop, participants take stock of their lifestyles and learn how to make lasting changes that will enhance their resilience.

IBS is one of the most common gastroenterological illnesses.  Yet, it is poorly understood and difficult to treat medically.  Many IBS patients feel trapped by their symptoms as the number and type of activities they feel comfortable in seems to shrink when symptoms worsen.  Studies show that IBS symptoms are influenced by many factors, including psychosocial stress, and ineffectual coping methods.  Many IBS patients also exhibit signs of clinical depression and anxiety.  Clinical research has suggested that the most effective treatment strategy for IBS is a combination of psychotherapy and medical treatment.  We incorporate the findings of the latest research on the treatment of IBS, combining cognitive-behavioural interventions, meditation, and interpersonal therapy to help participants understand and manage their symptoms.  This small group (5-8 participants) meets weekly for a total of 10 to 12 sessions.

This session is very interactive in style. Using different types of hats as metaphors for the reasons children misbehave, parents and teachers are taught how to crack the code of their children's misbehaviour and come to an understanding of the child's hidden motivation, the child's "true belief" that is being expressed and the way parents and teachers unknowingly react in ways that maintain or worsen the misbehaviour. This workshop is always popular as parents and teachers see children in a much more positive and encouraging manner. Time is spent offering solutions that can be implemented immediately both at home and school. A hand out will be provided.

There is an increasing body of research on something psychologists call “resilience”, which refers to a person's capacity to bounce back after stress or trauma. Resilience distinguishes the person who is able to take problems and tragedy in stride, putting it all behind him/her, from the person who succumbs to stress, showing emotional and physical signs of burnout or break down. In this 1/2 day workshop, participants take stock of their lifestyles and learn how to make lasting changes that will enhance their resilience.

It has been said that compassion fatigue is the price of caring for others. Prolonged exposure to the pain and suffering of others is life altering. It can adversely affect quality of life and capacity to continue to function effectively in the care giving role. Those who care for the ill, suffering or helpless are at risk for becoming physically and emotionally exhausted. Their ability to cope with the ongoing stresses of daily life can become depleted, and their confidence, effectiveness, sense of safety, and even ability to trust may be compromised. In this full day workshop, participants develop an understanding of factors contributing to compassion fatigue, learn to identify its symptoms, become aware of personal traits that may increase vulnerability to compassion fatigue and learn strategies for healing themselves and/or reducing vulnerability. (Note: this workshop is not a substitute for therapy/treatment.) For all caregivers of people or animals who are seeking balance, wellness, and renewed sense of purpose.

SuicideTALK is aimed at most members of a community. Its goal is to help make direct, open and honest talk about suicide easier. SuicideTALK is an exploration of the question, “Should we talk about suicide?” By looking at this question in a number of different ways, session members may discover and uncover some of the beliefs and ideas about suicide in their community— and in themselves. Ways to help a person at risk are discussed. The pain of those touched by suicide is acknowledged. But SuicideTALK is primarily an exploration of some of the most fundamental attitudinal issues about suicide. It helps session members clarify their beliefs. Such clarification typically creates a strong foundation for future suicide prevention work. Session members then examine the range of things they could do to help prevent suicide. Session members are encouraged to act on their commitments in the future and to invest in suicide prevention in their community.  This is a 90 minute to 2 hour session suitable for all audiences from high school up.
