Learning objectives of the session:
Understand what is burnout, compassion fatigue, and ways to prevent it.
Understand and practice self-awareness and self-monitoring of the stress response.
Understand and practice how to elicit the relaxation response.
Learn practical tools to thrive at work and life based on the field of positive psychology.
