Abstract

 
Across disciplines, working and learning in an academic setting can be very demanding. The demands placed on both faculty and students can lead to significant amounts of stress, which can in turn result in decreased work performance and job burnout. In this talk, self-care will be discussed as a method for reducing stress and burnout to achieve holistic wellness and balance. The research supporting self-care will be reviewed and several different self-care techniques and strategies will be taught.
