Managing anxiety in ourselves and our students has become of paramount concern in preserving our well-being through the COVID-19 pandemic. In this free, 30 minute workshop, Dr. Jen Forristal BSc, ND, will discuss: 

  • The habit-like nature of anxiety and what to expect in the way of COVID-19
  • Classroom and school wide shifts to address anxiety in the 2021/22 school year

This workshop is geared towards any educator in any school, in any province or country. We know how important it is to gain skills to manage the anxiety that so many educators and students are experiencing right now. 

Whether you are a homeroom teacher, educational assistant, early childhood educator, subject teacher, child and youth worker or administrator, these tips will support you as you create a mental health focus for your students next year. 

We hope you will join us for this important conversation.
