Imposter syndrome is a false and sometimes crippling belief that one's successes are the product of luck or fraud rather than skill.  People who experience imposter syndrome may feel like a fake, feel that everything is down to luck or feel undeserving of their accomplishments. Join this workshop to increase self-awareness of imposter syndrome and identify proactive strategies to enhance wellness. Learning Objectives

Stress is a normal response to situational pressures or demands and is part of our everyday lives. How we do or do not respond to those stressors will determine whether we have a relatively healthy life, or potentially become burdened with illness and disease. During this session we will discuss the role stress and stress hormones play in our body, and the impact prolonged stress can have on our overall health and wellness.

Who is this webinar for? This webinar is for individuals that want to learn to increase their ability to live in the present moment. To feel grounded during times of stress, to drop judgement and our common tendencies to relive past events and worry about the future.

Many of us feel overwhelmed by competing work and family demands. This session will help participants identify their key work/life stressors, clarify their values, and develop skills and strategies to effectively prioritize their time and energy. Facilitator: Homewood Health Register today!
