Topic: Thriving Under Pressure

The concept that “Diamonds are created under pressure” is widely known, yet it's essential to understand the thresholds of stress. It's important to identify when pressure becomes overwhelming and to find ways to achieve a balanced state that fosters thriving instead of sinking.

This session invites participants to pause and consider both healthy and unhealthy pressures. Through guided conversations with skilled facilitators, attendees will discuss:

• The various stressors encountered in both personal and professional spheres
• The challenges of managing pressure effectively
• Strategies for practicing self-care during intense periods

Objectives:

• Build a connection with the Calm Collective community
• Express thoughts and feelings in a supportive and non-judgmental environment
• Exchange insights and learn from one another
• Enhance listening and empathy skills

* Note: Calm Circles are not a substitute for professional mental health care or ongoing therapy.
