RESET YOUR MINDSET – MINDFULNESS
Tuesday 26 April 2022
2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT and 12 noon in WA)
TARGET GROUP
SUMMARY
Mindfulness is the practice of paying attention in the present moment and doing it with non-judgment. Discover Mindfulness strategies that will help you be more effective in your life and at work. Learn about how you can introduce these techniques with your clients and colleagues.
Regulating the mind is like driving a car and constantly having to shift gears to ever-changing traffic conditions. Mindfulness teaches you to be aware of what mental gear you are in and gives you the skills to disengage and engage when you choose. The practice of mindfulness sharpens your focus so you can do something about your mind being constantly distracted and mentally hijacked. (Marianne Vicelich, Author & Entrepreneur)
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
- What are the benefits of mindfulness practices
- Experience a 5-minute guided mindfulness session

SERVE YOURSELF FIRST – A SESSION ON INVESTING IN SELF-CARE FOR SUSTAINED WELLBEING
Thursday 5 May 2022
2.00pm AEST (1.30pm SA & NT and 12 noon WA)
TARGET GROUP
All staff
SUMMARY
We could be forgiven for thinking that we’re in some kind of film, an alternate reality – but the truth is, we are firmly ensconced in these topsy turvy times and it’s taking its toll.
As people who spend their working (and probably home) lives serving others, it’s all too easy to lose focus on yourself – and that’s not a sustainable strategy.
Terms such as compassion fatigue are finding their way into everyday vernacular. There is a cost to caring without serving yourself first, a cost that isn’t always easy to recover.
It’s time to invest some quality time learning about the benefits of self-care, what self-care does to our amazing brains and simple, easy to-implement strategies to replenish your cup
and recharge your batteries for good!
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
- Why self-care is a critical element of resilience
- Why prioritising self-care is the only way to serve others
- The 3-legged stool of self-care and the difference it can make to your physical, mental and emotional health
- The importance of creating boundaries, keeping commitments and setting priorities
- How to create and maintain selfcare habits, rituals and routines
- Self-care strategies that don’t cost the earth yet can work wonders
