Addressing Common Fears: How to Gain Control in Uncertain Times

Posted May 26, 2020 | By ale_bellot

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and really think about what scares you most. No, not spiders, needles or heights – think about the uncontrollables, the things that keep your mind running when you lay down at night. Are these fears exacerbated in our uncertain, unprecedented times? Are they bringing up other, different negative emotions? If so, we’ve got good news for you: these feelings are totally normal and better yet, completely manageable with some easily implemented strategies and tactics.

Join Sara Wright, Wellbeing Guide at the Center for Health & Wellbeing, for this program during which you’ll learn those critical strategies and tactics used to combat common fears. You’ll walk away with a list of action steps you can activate when you feel fear taking over and have an opportunity to ask Sara any related question at the end of this virtual presentation.

This program is presented by Sara Wright and is hosted by the Winter Park Health Foundation.
