Resilency Activities

Before the school closure, we were in the midst of our peer group sessions (*sad face*). If you would like to continue to build your coping and resiliency skills, please do so by accessing the content below. You have the option of discussing the content in our weekly check-ins or reviewing independently.

The content below is especially helpful if you are having a difficult time controlling your thoughts, feelings and/or actions. Those who are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, worry, stress, overthinking, sadness,  angry outbursts, etc. may also benefit from completing these activities.

Introduction to the Cognitive Model (Thoughts, Feelings & Behavior)

Please review the following documents and become familiar with the Cognitive Model. Both documents deliver the same message but in different ways so that you may find one that better suits you. 

Breakdown Thoughts, Feelings & Actions and Identify Unhelpful Thinking Styles

This week, apple the Cognitive Model to our real life examples by completing the attached worksheets. Review the "Unhelpful Thinking Styles" page and identify styles that feel familiar to your own. With that information, you can take more control over the thoughts that make you feel negatively, and as a result encourage you to act or behave in negative ways.
