Course details

As people transition back into the world and the workforce following the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic, there’s much uncertainty on the best ways to go about this. In this course, Dr. Jay Kumar, author of The Science of a Happy Brain, outlines three powerful steps that can guide you and your company to peace of mind and well-being, post-pandemic. Dr. Kumar uses the values of being ready, resilient, and reflective to deliver strategies that can help restore and rehumanize your own work life and your company’s workforce. He explains the ways that your brain sabotages your mental health and well-being and offers strategies to nurture and retrain the brain to resilience. Dr. Kumar shares accessible ways to cope with stress and the daily pressures related to working virtually, and provides practices to maintain a sense of interdependence in the midst of our recent independent—and in some cases, isolated—lives.
