Tools and Techniques for Personal Change Management
Up until now, we have lived through our own personal crises, as the rest of the world remained a stable environment which provided a sense of safety and normalcy that could be returned to. That is not currently true. We now have to manage change on such a wide-reaching level, in all aspects of our lives, both individually and as a society.
We have been thrust into a new norm that is causing feelings of uncertainty, frustration, and fear. We are facing a variety of changes related to our workplace, homelife, income, health care, child care, elder care, selfcare, eating, and even shopping. Processes and priorities are changing daily and we are making things up as we go along. That’s a lot of change to mentally process and manage, and it can be overwhelming and exhausting.
This rapid change has heightened emotions causing great stress and anxiety which affects our mental health and coping mechanisms, as well as our physical health. Stress weakens the immune system and is the precursor to illness. So, if we can nip stress in the bud, we not only support our mental health, we strengthen our immune system as well.

This session will be different from any other than you have attended in ATD-Orange County. You will leave calm, relaxed, centered, focused and with a renewed sense of safety and control. And you will have techniques you can use on your own. We will start out with some brief relaxation and focusing techniques, dive into some theory, and end with Tapping routines that will address specific issues attendees would like help with.
Upon registration you will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire, so the processes can be tailored to the specific needs of the group.
