Stress Management Erasmus+ Course

PRE-REGISTER (No deposit required)

Stress Management in Schools

Erasmus+ course summary
Stress, with its specific combination of cognitive, emotional, physical and behavioural response, has a positive and a negative side: a result of a stressful experience can be loss of health, but we can also feel more powerful, resilient and compassionate. Comprehensive (holistic) stress management strategies are important protective factor for successful and satisfying work of teachers and other professions, among which the most widely recognised is mindfulness. Mindfulness helps us to replenish our internal resources and increase our psychosocial hardiness and resilience. When faced with stressful situations in school, it helps us be aware of and connected with whatever is happening inside and around us. On the other side, our diverse competencies will give us strength to initiate change when appropriate.
​"The stronger person is not the one making the most noise but the one who can quietly direct the conversation toward defining and solving problems." – Aaron T. Beck

Course Content

Full Programme

OBJECTIVES
This course provides the participants with the opportunity to gain insight into their individual patterns of stress response - it builds on their internal and external resources for a successful stress management. The participants learn about the up-side of stress as a source of progress, mastery and growth. The focus is given to mindfulness practice and the use of new stress management knowledge and skills in their personal and professional life (work with students). 
METHODOLOGY
The course is designed as a highly interactive process with emphasis on establishing a mentor relationship with the participants. It follows a two-way communication process including discussions, working in groups and pairs, presentations, case studies, thinking techniques and individual activities. Strong focus is on experiential learning and deep self-reflection. The participants also receive a workbook with sessions' summaries and descriptions of activities used. We recommend interesting literature for further study.

Training usually takes place between 9:00 am and 14:00 pm, followed by after-class activities, that are optional. ​

DAY 5 
Self-reflection as a protective factor of self-care. Maintaining newly learned skills in stress management.
