<h3>Using Art as a Coping Tool to Build Resilience</h3><h3>Monday, April 11, 2022, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM EDT</h3><p>Providing services to individuals who experience intense daily challenges can lead to burnout over time, and self-care may be the most powerful coping tool for prevention. This experiential workshop will build upon your understanding of secondary trauma and explore ways that art can be used to help you cope with work-related stressors and beyond. You will learn the benefits of making art for self-care and have opportunities to practice art exercises to promote resilience during the workshop. Practical ways to consistently integrate art for self-care into your life will also be explored. </p><p><strong>What to have:</strong> Paper and your choice of available basic drawing materials such as pencils, pens, markers, and/or crayons will be used. No artistic skill is needed!</p><p>Presenter: Eve J. Cannon, LPC, LPAT, ATR-BC, LPC, NCC (bio below)</p><h3></h3><h3>Learn! Cognitive Reframing as a Resilience Tool</h3><h3>Thursday, April 14, 2022, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM EDT</h3><p>Just like any muscle in our bodies, our ability to be resilient can grow stronger and become more developed through the consistency of practicing resilience skills. There are different ways to build our resiliency muscle. In this workshop, we will discuss and practice the cognitive resilience tool of reframing. This cognitive tool practiced regularly and in conjunction with other supportive practices can build greater stability, ease, and well-being in our lives.</p><p>Presenter: <a href="https://healthfederation.org/training/meet-hfp-trainers/Ashleigh-Ryans" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a><a href="https://healthfederation.org/training/meet-hfp-trainers/Donald-Jackson" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><strong>Donald Jackson</strong></a></p><h3>﻿</h3><h3>Mindfulness Tools for Wellbeing</h3><h3>Tuesday, April 19, 2022, 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM EDT</h3><p>Mindfulness tools are used to support well-being by helping us to focus on the present moment, instead of getting lost in repetitive thinking, worry, or behavior. Just like any other resilience skill, the more we practice, the better we get at doing it and the easier it is to do. During this workshop, we will practice several mindfulness techniques to build stability in our minds and to settle our bodies.</p><p>Presenter:  <a href="https://healthfederation.org/training/meet-hfp-trainers/Monica-Sullivan" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"><strong>Monica Sullivan, MEd</strong></a>	</p><p></p><h3>Guest Faculty Bio:</h3><p><strong>Eve J.
