Life Skills
Life Skills is a term used to define the skills and abilities that help encourage adaptive and positive behaviours, which enable us all to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of life.
Building Resilience
Being resilient is about functioning in a healthy manner when faced with risk or stress. People who are resilient are able to withstand considerable difficulty and bounce back from difficult events.
Communication Styles
Each of us will use these forms of communication in uniquely different ways depending on such factors as our upbringing, genetic make up, environment, culture and gender.
Tips for Dealing with Debt
Being in debt today is not the same as it was 200 years ago – very few debts can put you in prison. Even so, for far too many of us, our finances are a source of worry, not of security.
Supporting Others
You may want to comfort someone but you don’t know how. You may not know what to say or what you can do to help. Many people feel like this, even if they’re used to dealing with difficult issues in their work lives or in other circumstances.
When Someone Dies
Bereavement is a very distressing experience which can leave us feeling emotionally and physically drained. When we lose someone, we love the body and mind is put under great strain and we can sometimes feel overwhelmed by the intensity of our feelings.
