Self-care is so much more than a manicure or massage. It is how we restore, replenish, and nurture ourselves. It involves tough aspects like saying no, setting boundaries, assertive communication, as well as gentle restorative practices such as relaxation, laughter, and nourishing our soul.

Join wellness coach Laura Greco and learn more about taking care of yourself...for a change.

As a result of this program, attendees will:

• Identify 3 benefits of practicing self-care
• Name 4 self-care techniques

Instructor: With more than 20 years as a patient care nurse, and now working as a certified wellness coach, author, and educator, Laura Greco helps professionals improve their well-being, eliminate burnout, and find their elusive joyful work-life balance. Using practical strategies, humor, and empathy, Laura’s interactive programs break apart complex and sometimes in tangible topics. She then reassembles them with clarity, highlighting both simple action steps and why they work. Your audience will leave feeling capable, empowered, and inspired to make positive changes.

Laura has a BSN (University of Michigan), master’s in adult education (MEd, Penn State), training from HeartMath and Mass General’s Benson Henry Mind Body Institute, certifications in wellness coaching (Wellcoaches and Center for Credentialing and Education). She is the author of Wellness Made Simple and Wellness Made Simple for Residents.

New webinars will be in the New category for several weeks. You do not need to register for a webinar in order to view it later in the Staff Skills Academy.
