Stress, Burnout and Compassion

This course brings two linked sets of personal and workplace concerns, stress and burnout, with a series of exercises to address them while building compassion. Peoples personal and organizational lives create inevitable challenges and suffering.

Compassion offers a interpersonal opportunity to take action in the face of suffering, so we emphasize behavioral action to address life challenges and engaged empathic response in this course.

Our own research has found that a fear of receiving compassion from themselves, from others and offering compassion can have a negative impact on interpersonal skills and is linked to stress, anxiety and depression in individuals. Martin et. al. (2014, 2017)
