SUMMARY:Mindful Life Webinar: Recognizing and Mitigating Unconscious Bias
DESCRIPTION:When change and quick responses are the norms in our work and personal lives\, how do we know if biases are influencing our decision-making process and our interactions with others? \nUnconscious bias occurs when our brain uses mental associations that are so well established\, they operate without our awareness\, intention\, or control. It is no surprise that these biases penetrate nearly every aspect of our lives and can have a critical effect on how we make decisions and how we interact with colleagues\, friends\, and strangers. \nIn this webinar\, we will identify the patterns of beliefs that support conscious and unconscious bias and the questions we can ask ourselves and others to mitigate bias. Recognizing and interpreting our personal biases is a crucial foundation of thoughtful\, compassionate leadership\, and is key for making effective change in the workplace and in our communities \nPresenters: Eileen Long-Farias\, LPC\, CEAP & Director of Educational Programs at The Women’s Center\nShirley Clark\, CLC\, CEO TransitionZ \nPresentation – 12:00 PM – 12:30 PM\nQ&A – 12:30 PM – 12:45 PM \n

SUMMARY:Anger Management for Women Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Jasmine Pike\, the Women’s Center Therapist \n7-Week Course \nThere are many emotions that contribute to our daily life. Sometimes we handle life with ease and sometimes we become angry during stressful situations. \nIf managed inappropriately\, anger is likely to negatively affect our physical and mental health. Repressed anger can disrupt relations\, affect thinking and behavior patterns\, and create a variety of physical problems\, such as high blood pressure\, heart problems\, headaches\, skin disorders\, arthritis\, and digestive issues. \nChanneled carefully\, anger can help you achieve your goals. Misuse it and it will create difficulties that will keep you from becoming the kind of person you would like to be. \nIf you feel stuck\, come learn the patterns and triggers of your own anger\, and ways to express anger appropriately and constructively. \n
