As we approach the autumn and winter, we know that it is going to be a difficult time, with many people struggling to cope with the increased cost of living. While CLWs will be a vital support to many people during the coming months, it is also important that they take care of their own resilience and mental wellbeing.
The Scottish Community Link Worker Network is delighted to be joined for this session by Janine Rennie, Chief Executive of Wellbeing Scotland. Wellbeing Scotland is a voluntary organisation with services across Scotland. They provide a wide range of holistic services for individuals and families whose life experiences have impacted negatively on their wellbeing, as well as bespoke training and consultancy to organisations. Janine will be running an introductory taster session on mental wellbeing. The session will focus on what CLWs can do to manage their resilience and wellbeing and will include an introduction to the following:
- Effects of stress on wellbeing
- What masks do we wear in life
- Positive thinking
- Self-awareness
- Johari Window
- Self-talk
- Thinking traps
- Boundaries
- Burnout/ compassion fatigue/ vicarious trauma
- Self-care
Janine will also talk about some of the other support and training that Wellbeing Scotland provides to organisations.
