Are current circumstances stressing you out? How do we thrive and be mentally resilient in the new normal of COVID-19?
What is From Stress to Zest?
Learn the art and science of being mentally resilient and go away with practical handles on how to deal with stress and prevent burnout.
From Stress to Zest has been successfully run with several companies (including education, non-profit, legal and healthcare institutions), across several countries and has been well-received.
This carefully designed talk helps participants to explore questions including:
What is stress? Is the same as burnout?
Do I, my loved one and/or colleagues have burnout?
How does one begin to take steps to prevent or overcome burnout?
Hear from James, the Lead Thrive-Synergist & Founder of a local social enterprise on how to grow and thrive through building mental resilience with the 5S strategies.
From Stress to Zest belongs to a series of mental resilience programme we are offering.
What Participants Like about the Talk
Here are some feedback from some of the trainees on what they like about the circuit:
The session was informative, easy to understand, practical and resourceful. Much needed for our overstretched and very stressed society.
Raymond
The course is very informative, I learn the ICED-T method to assess if one is burned out, the importance of being aware of it- how it affect the people around us , and the practical ways (5S) to deal with burnout.
I really like this (workshop) because of how approachable the presenter is and how he presented the information in a very interesting manner like the different models to help us remember the concepts. Will definitely want to learn more!
The sharing of personal experiences by the trainer was authentic and relevant.
Tristan
I learnt several ways to manage stress better and prevent burnout....and that we will get better and better at it when we keep trying...and the beautiful reminder that God is for us always 🙂
Genevieve
James knows what he's talking about. Lots of variety in the session, and some practical tips
George
Authentic, personal, useful takeaway for life application...
Cindy
Thank you for the helpful acronym in looking out signs of burnout 🙂 Appreciate the suggested coping strategies, practical and seems doable! Lot's of valuable teachings packed into a tight hour!
Elaine
James has real experiences and in turn real tips for coping and/or preventing burnouts, I'll be sharing this with a friend who is going through a challenging time too!
I like the simplified pointers and acronyms eg ICED-T and 4S because it frames things in a more organized way compared to being bombarded with information
Lynn
It was a good lunchtime session that helped me understand and learn about signs to look out for myself or rather to prevent it from happening. Thank you James for the session!
Frances Ng
Talk enables me to understand more about burnout and the effects of it. It also helps me to understand the causes of it and what may contribute to it in my life.
Real conversations and statistics about the state of Singaporeans in terms of work, mental health, burnt out and sleep deprivation. Thought-provoking and much-needed conversations for workplaces to start having regarding real work-life thriving and burnout/mental health issues.
Easy to understand presentation, with good pedagogies in delivering content. The whole workshop is interesting because of personal sharing of speaker. It gives audience hope that burnout can be prevented, identified, and managed.
James is a social worker and had himself experienced and overcame burnout at least five times. He gleaned many life lessons and grew from it. Today, he makes helping people, organizations and communities grow and thrive his mission. Read more here.
