Stress Is Inevitable. Burnout Isn't.
A 7-day email course on stress management and resilience — understanding the stress response, mapping your stress sources, cognitive reframing, coping strategies that actually work, burnout warning signs, and building sustainable resilience.
What You'll Be Able to Do After This Course
Understand your stress response from the inside out
Learn what stress really is — the biology, the psychology, and why your body reacts the way it does. Understanding the mechanism is the first step to mastering it.
Map your personal stress sources
Learn to identify the six risk factors that drive your stress — workload, control, reward, community, fairness, and values. You can't manage what you can't name.
Reframe threat as challenge
Learn cognitive techniques to reframe stress responses — turning "this is a threat" into "this is a challenge". The same situation feels different — and performs different — depending on the frame.
Recognise burnout before it breaks you
Learn the warning signs of burnout — physical, emotional, and behavioural — and when to seek support. Burnout is not a personality flaw. It's a system failure. Catch it early.
Stress Management and Resilience
Practical, evidence-based techniques to manage workplace stress and build resilience. Grounded in HSE Management Standards, the Lazarus and Folkman transactional model, Maslach's burnout research, and Masten's resilience science. A 7-day email course for employees and managers.
