The pandemic has been a profoundly difficult time for faculty, staff, and students, and their mental health. Many of us feel an extensive fatigue and also an urgency to continue to press ahead as we begin returning to "normal". During this time, it's especially important to invest in one's personal well-being, acknowledge the many stressors that people face, and feel equipped to recongize excessive stress and anxiety warning signs in ourselves, our colleagues, and our students. This progam will provide an overview of the challenges of returning to "normal", how to recognize excessive stress and anxiety in ourselves and others, and strategies to maintain and improve resiliency.

Learning Objectives: At the end of the program, participants will be able to

Discuss concerns related to returning to "normal"
Describe signs and symptoms of excessive stress and anxiety
