Description: Life can bring us down at times with feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, fatigue, and burn out but a rainbow of hopeful tolerance can always be found by those who seek it. Join us on a journey to find your Rainbow of Tolerance. Through this session, we hope to unpack feelings of overwhelm, burnout, and fatigue through the lens of Dr. Dan Seigal’s Window of Tolerance Model.
The intention is to find one’s Rainbow of tolerance and develop a tool kit to help navigate burnout and find one’s rainbow of tolerance. Structure/flow and activities of the sessions: The session will begin with an ice-breaking game followed by a discussion on the model in question and some reflection questions which will be interspersed with sharing spaces.
What do you hope for participants in your group to take back with them after the session? : Participants can expect to find a safe space with community agreements in place to help us collectively process overwhelming experiences of burnout and fatigue.
Any instructions or protocols to keep in mind: PS- BYOA: Bring your own art materials (paper and crayons/ colour pencils/ paints) BYOB: Bring your own beverage.
