Highlighting some eLearning on the Wellbeing Together Online Portal that may be of interest to the school community:

  • Reduce Anxiety Mediation as part of our Be Calm meditation series. This includes a variety of mediations to teach people how to respond to stress with an awareness of what is happening in the present moment https://app.spectrum.life/be-calm/143 

    Instead of focusing on expected anxiety, it might be nice to be proactive and promote mental wellbeing further through the use of the ‘Increase Happiness’ mediation series https://app.spectrum.life/be-calm/142 

  • Our ‘Anxiety Pathway’ is all filled with various videos, articles, and audios all about anxiety, what it is, and how best to manage it - https://app.spectrum.life/wellbeing/54 

  • Why not try a few podcasts episodes, which align well with this from our podcast space, called Sound Space on the Wellbeing Portal. Of note, either ‘Self Worth over Net Worth’ or ‘ The compassionate approach to stress, anxiety, and burnout with Dr. Mallie Coyne’ may be interesting – You can find these episodes here https://app.spectrum.life/sound-space 

  • A person will need to be registered on the school community’s Wellbeing Together Online Portal to view the above. Register here, if not already signed up: https://wellbeingtogether.spectrum.life/login?org=ylVIIU17 

Work Well
