Upcoming Exclusive Columbia University Webinar
Welcoming Change into Your Life
Thursday, December 19: 1 p.m. - 2 p.m.
Register Here
Change is a natural part of life. While some changes can affect the very structure of your life, other changes can have subtle impacts on your day-to-day activities. Sometimes you may be aware that a change is imminent but are uncertain about what it will involve and how it will affect your life. Situations like these can create ambiguity, worry, or a sense of loss and sadness. This seminar will address the emotional reactions that participants may experience when confronted with change, considering their personality and strength, and provide coping skills to enable them to manage change more effectively.
Additional Upcoming Webinars
Critical Thinking
Friday, December 6: 2 – 2:30 p.m.
Register Here
Beyond just memorizing facts or learning from rote, learning to think critically expands a person's ability to problem-solve and see things in a new way. By learning how to ask different kinds of questions, we open the floodgates to different ways of viewing concepts. This class will look at the origins of critical thinking concepts as well as applications of them in our work and private lives.
Holiday Budgeting
Friday, December 20: 2 – 2:30 p.m.
Register Here
We may have our finances under control during the year, but holidays can seriously send spending out of control. This class will help you avoid waking up on January 2 thinking, "how could I have spent and eaten that much!?" This motivational class teaches a skill set to keep the holidays in balance, financially.
Did You Know?
People who practice gratitude are more optimistic, more likely to achieve their goals, and happier overall. Use this e-journal like a diary to write down the things for which you are grateful—whether it's a good meal, a piece of music, your work, your health, a child's smile, or the beautiful tree outside your window.
