Please join the Mile High Chapter Education Committee at our monthly luncheon on July 16, 2020 starting at 11:45 am.  Amy Kingery of Colorado Lawyers Assistance Program  will present on "Stress Hardiness in Uncertain Times."  Stress isn’t all bad.  On a day-to-day basis, it motivates us to get our to-do list accomplished and, in extreme cases, it can save our lives.  However, when we become overwhelmed, our stress response isn’t working for us; it’s working against us, causing many negative side effects that can compromise our health, our relationships, and even our work.  Unforeseen periods of extreme change in our work and personal lives, coupled with often simultaneous feelings of isolation and feeling trapped with those you may be isolating with can have a similar impact.  Luckily, years of research in practice has also given the field strategies for how to build up our resiliency to work and life stressors, survive and thrive in the wake of extreme stress environments. 

This presentation will assist attendees in:

• Understanding the neurobiology and neurophysiology of stress
• Identifying what each attendee’s personal stress response looks like, and identifying warning
• Building resiliency factors to support self, colleagues and staff in mitigating the impact of chronic stress, especially when confronted with unpredictable or unknown environments
