Wellbeing is a state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy. Stress affects wellbeing and mental health and is common while doing a Doctorate due to many factors including the uncertainty of research, time pressures and the nature of high-level study. This workshop helps identify stressful incidents, your responses to these and potential coping strategies. Stress-management techniques are practiced and an individual action plan is developed to enhance your wellbeing. 

Course Information

This blended course has pre-course activities to complete in your own time and course activities to engage with during the live course: you will receive the credit by participating in all pre-course and course activities.

Pre-course activities (duration about 60 mins) will prepare you for the live session. Live sessions are available on different dates as online interaction or as a face-2-face workshop (both 3 hrs).
