Workshop Keeping up the Spirit, reducing the (cognitive) load

Do you find it hard to keep up the spirit, and does this impact your studies? Perhaps this workshop can help.

    General

    Sometimes it’s hard just not to feel overwhelmed by it all. Information technology makes us incredibly aware of everything. Think of the big issues like social tensions, war, climate change, exclusion and discrimination to name but a few. But the smaller things also take their toll like housings issues and financial woes. Social media also shows us a barrage of people who are seemingly doing everything better than we are. And keeping up with all your whatsapp groups for fear a missing out on things, can add to the pile. This particular time of year can also be hard. It is coming to a close and while others are “festive and merry”, you might be forced to acknowledge that you’re disappointed in your progress and how you are dealing with it all. The prospect of a new year feels more like a heavy burden than a renewed opportunity. 

    Do you recognize yourself in this description? Do you feel continuously overtaxed and struggling to keep your spirits up? This workshop might help. 

    The following topics will be addressed:

    • How to manage your “circle of influence” better.
    • How to applying yourself but also let go of concerns. 
    • The value of predictability. Creating habits and rituals  
    • Slowing down and simplifying your life.
    • Improving the support of your social network with honest communication
