Power of Positivity

by Dr John Shepherd Lim

About the seminar:

We all face negative emotions from time to time. However, while they are valid responses to the things going on around us, many of us struggle with handling these discomforting, negative emotions healthily. As such, this course aims to increase our awareness of how these negative emotions can affect our thoughts and behaviours in the long run, and teach us ways in which we can cope well with the negative emotions we might be facing, in turn facilitating an increased sense of wellbeing. This course is customized to target the context of postgraduate students who might struggle with stress and other negative emotions arising from having to balance work, family, and academic responsibilities. This course will also be highly practical, with activity segments for students to try out and practice in their everyday lives.
