Building Resilience

It might be easy to be positive when everything is going well, but our ability to get back up on our feet and keep moving forward when challenges come can be more difficult. Why is it, that some people are better at this than others? The answer can be found in an individual’s levels of resilience.

Resilience is the ability to respond positively to adversity, to bounce back and find a way forward. The good news is, this is a skill we can grow and develop. This half-day workshop is designed to teach just that – to increase the personal levels of resilience in your staff.

Helping participants become more self-aware is a key component of our Building Resilience training course. In this training, we focus on how to recognise and identify negative thinking and learn to reframe adversity as a challenge to overcome, as opposed to a threat. The training takes a closer look at what happens when our body is under stress and how these body reactions influence our thinking and behaviour. Participants will learn helpful strategies for stress mitigation, emotional regulation and self-control, increasing their own levels of personal resilience.

Topics Covered in this seminar:

Learn strategies to improve personal levels of resilience
Learn how to identify and mitigate early signs of stress
Learn strategies to reframe negative events
Increase levels of resilient thinking
Learn relaxation techniques to mitigate stress response
Enhancing personal wellbeing

Health and well-being are critical factors in achieving a high–performing, productive workplace. Creating a workplace culture that promotes good mental health, where people can flourish and be their best, benefits both the individual and the workplace.
Life Care works with organisations across multiple sectors and industries, empowering their staff with the knowledge, confidence, and skills to know how to recognise and respond to someone who is struggling with their mental health.

Our consultative approach is tailored to your industry, offering interactive, practical, and engaging courses. We work closely with you to develop scenario-based training and case studies relevant to your workplace and then help your staff apply the knowledge and skills they learn in a realistic and safe learning environment.

We have developed mental health and well-being training packages to help improve mental health in your workplace. All our courses are delivered nationwide by qualified and experienced professionals.

“From a feedback perspective, the staff conducting the health checks were extremely professional and delightful. This was the first time health checks were being conducted by the business and we had some very nervous and apprehensive staff but the LifeCare team made them feel comfortable and I think they saw the value of such a service in the end.”

“The team really appreciated the day and found it informative and interesting, the day went quickly, Tiffany kept the group well engaged and there were interesting discussions taking place.

One of my staff comes from working for the Cancer Society and has been on a number of these types of workshops, they mentioned this was by far the best they had been on. The tangible information was so helpful… the physiology of mental health, the different types of mental health concerns and giving the staff tools to recognise it and to manage it for themselves as well as their colleagues”.

“I wanted to pass on great feedback from the group regarding the first training on Saturday 20/7/24, Tiffany was very good, enthusiastic and kept the good-sized group engaged from start to finish”.
