About this Event
Presenter: Kelly Williamson, Community Manager, SUNY CPD and Eileen Angelini, Ph.D., Associate Dean, School for Graduate Studies, Empire State College
Description: Part of SUNY Center for Professional Development Week. A well-balanced, and healthy team member is a high-performing one. An investment in "loving" yourself can resonate throughout your career and personal life. It can also help you to jump-start your ability to focus on long-term planning.
Not only can self-care make us healthier, but it can help us attune to our authentic selves, allowing us to expand our attention to a wide set of emotions, relationships and resources. Self-care results in better communication, feeling less effects of stress, and allows us to be more present for your colleagues, students, and families. This webinar will highlight various self-care strategies and will provide you with a toolbox of activities to use throughout the years.
The second half of our presentation will include the practice of Chair Yoga, reminding us that movement and stretching are important as many of us are working longer hours in order to deal with the demands of the pandemic. Chair yoga is one solution that will bring increased circulation and exercise into our daily routines. Other benefits include improving flexibility, relieving cramps and stiffness, and creating a happy mental state.
