What are the skills, understandings and practices that help us deal with difficult times? What helps us find our strengths and help others find theirs too? As we face and head into times of greater challenge, now is the time to prepare ourselves, to develop and enhance our ability to help ourselves, other people and the communities we belong to. In this free webinar, Chris Johnstone shares some of the most useful tools he’s found in this more than thirty years on the leading edge of resilience training. We’ll look at how to become a resilience practitioner and how to deepen skillfulness in this role.

What is wellbeing?

Wellbeing is a positive state where we feel and function well. Whatever our starting point, we can all move in this direction.

Our approach is guided by the questions what would it look like if things were going well here? and how can we make that more likely to occur?  We can apply those questions to our personal lives and relationships, to teams or communities we belong to and to the larger world we are part of. The three levels of personal, social and ecological wellbeing are reflected in the three loops of our logo.

Resilience Training

Resilience is our ability to withstand, deal with and/or recover from difficult situations. It includes our ability to make the best of things, cope with stress and rise to the occasion. We all have this ability, though maybe not always as much as we’d like. Research has shown that training in resilience reduces our risk of depression, anxiety and stress-related harm, while becoming better at coping with adversity helps us get more from life.  With the times of uncertainty we live in, this is a much needed skill.
