about this course
Stop, Notice, Breathe- "mind your monsters"
Acceptance Commitment Training (ACT) is an evidence-based approach for increasing employees’personal resilience and well-being.
In the modern workplace, employees can at times feel overwhelmed and exhausted, and can become disconnected from a sense of personal meaning in their work and personal lives. ACT programs delivered in workplace settings are designed to help people become more aware of the qualities they most want to express in daily behaviour. ACT programs also show people how to relate skilfully to difficult or unhelpful thoughts and feelings.
Open to all staff employed within Wessex.
