In these times of unprecedented challenge and change where we are bombarded with negative news that overwhelms the spirit, how can we build back our spirits and resilience? One word: HOPE. Hope strengthens our capacity to teach, learn and give our best response to the challenges confronting us. It helps us find creativity, solidarity, and courage to act.
Hope is an essential component to our recovery and renewal. We invite you to join Angela Maiers as she connects the language, theory and science of hope to our daily work and lives and discusses strategies for building and sustaining positive and flourishing vision for the future.
Together we will:
• Reflect on the attributes of hope and the beliefs, values and attitudes that bring them into practice.
• Identify strategies for developing capacity to be hopeful and hope-filled
• Learn practical steps and exercises to assess, teach and nurture hope and strengthen resilience.
• Apply a H.O.P.E model for setting and working toward recovery and growth goals
