Thanks for sharing. If anyone was unable to take part, you'll find the webinars posted to their site. And here is a share from Blaise Aguirre. He made this recording for colleagues (initially) but in truth he says is for everyone! https://www.mcleanhospital.org/video/dr-blaise-aguirre-offers-covid-19-coping-tips-health-care-workers … WDx Title: Re: NEA-BPD webinars: Helping Each Other Through COVID-19 Post by: PeaceMom on April 09, 2020, 03:56:45 PM These have been amazing to watch. It’s so much easier to understand the concepts when someone is explaining them and sharing personal stories.

https://www.borderlinepersonalitydisorder.org (https://www.borderlinepersonalitydisorder.org) Excerpt These have been amazing to watch. It’s so much easier to understand the concepts when someone is explaining them and sharing personal stories. It is Peace. Skills for surviving a pandemic webinar I've found especially helpful; how to cope in a crisis, planning ahead. I'm now coping with a crisis I prepared for, Covid-19 was confirmed in Mum's care home this week. I'm taking time off from working at home (about to enter week 6 of lockdown). I'm practicing radical self care. I'm hoping for the best. |
