You Got This Series
You Got This (YGT) consists of psycho-educational, skill building workshops designed to help build personal awareness, develop coping skills and promote self-care. For Fall 2019 quarter, we will offer workshops on the following topics: general mindfulness, coping with anxiety, stress management and interpersonal communication.
The Mindfulness workshop combines evidence-based practices for more skillful management of a variety of concerns. Participants will practice mindfulness techniques in a low pressure, supportive environment.
Coping with Anxiety is a three-part workshop series that looks at anxiety through the lens of connection with the mind, body and present moment. This series utilizes evidence-based practices for coping with anxiety. The modules are not sequential, and recur regularly so that students can start the series at any point. However, participants that attend each of the three separate workshops will gain the most benefits. As part of this series, participants will learn about the relationship between anxiety and thinking styles, in which participants understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behavior are linked. Participants will also learn about mindfulness, practice techniques and how to incorporate into daily routine. In addition, participants will learn relaxation techniques that bring calmness and grounding to them. Participants will also learn how to improve sleep, impact of food on anxiety, and other resources available at Counseling Services for anxiety management.
The Stress Management workshop is designed to encourage students to identify areas of stress and learn techniques to help reduce and cope with daily stressors.
During the Interpersonal Communication workshop, students will learn tips for good interpersonal communication and explore barriers to good communication. Student will also learn four steps to effective empathetic listening.
Students are welcome to select any of the workshops listed and repeat any of the YGT workshops. Space is limited, so please encourage students to reserve their spot now.
