Details

This training is being generously sponsored by Alberta Health for all Albertans. This $55/per person training is now available at no cost to Albertans.

If the past months have not been a true example of this nothing will be. Sometimes life can become more about surviving than thriving, and in this training, we take a closer look at the role play has in managing stress and challenges. As a group, we will explore the brain science connected to the value of adults of using play as a tool at work and home. The fact that play promotes brain organization as well as can help people rebound from disappointment is critical during the demands of our current world circumstances. The session is based on the research of Dr. Stuart Brown, the founder of the National Institute for Play.

Learning outcome:

  • Understand brain science related to stress.
  • Explore and connect the value of play in adult environments.
  • Provide practical tools for adults to use to engage in play in their work/home environments.

Instructions

Zoom link and materials will be emailed to you 1 - 2 days prior to the session.
