I loved the journaling ideas to reduce stress. That is a great idea to think of three positive things that happened at the end of each day so I leave the day with a more positive outlook rather than focusing on the negative. This talk also made me feel like I'm not alone when I feel stressed in my job.

This course helped to build upon concepts reviewed in the speaker's first course about stress management. Jessi discusses three main stressors that are sure to have led nearly everyone in the field to experience stress at some level. One of the biggest sources of stress that I have experienced in work settings has been under staffing, which in turn leads to increased caseload/paperwork. Chronic under staffing can prove to be a large source of burnout. I could very much relate to what Jessi was describing when she provided examples of fight, flight, and freeze as reactions to stress within the workplace. It was helpful that the presenter provided examples of each form of mindfulness and positivity. For example, some therapists may benefit from active movement to clear their mind and feel energized, while others may find more success with meditation or journaling. This course provides excellent examples, and serves as an important reminder that we will be better off both mentally and physically if we take the time to engage in some form of stress management each day.

While I know other SLP's have the same stressful situations, I truly feel alone as I am in a community school an one of the only SLP's employed by the management company and not contracted, so I have to speak up for myself which is very difficult when you are fearful of losing your job. My freeze level is definitely in effect and I am very grateful to have learned that I do have options on how to improve my situation and not just feel alone and stuck. I have done this for almost 3 years and have never seen our profession so difficult with paperwork and caseloads (in the schools) and my feeling of productivity is at an all time low. After listening to this short 1 and a half hour course, I already feel as if I can do something for myself and my situation just through mindfulness and positivity.

Fabulous course! I think the instructor's story resonated SO much with mine! Everything the instructor said about working as an SLP was spot on! I have also taken on more speaking opportunities on mindfulness and meditation to help others work through stressful conditions. Thank you to the instructor for tapping into strategies to help us ALL remember that WE come 1st so that we can 'serve' others with our best Self!

The presenter says at the outset that she quit Speech Pathology after only a few years to move careers. So she has spent only a small part of her career practicing Speech Pathology, even if she has resumed the profession. Much of what she taught is in direct contradiction to other SpeechPathology.com courses on mindfulness. For instance, the excellent course 8423: Integrating Mindfulness Techniques into Pediatric Speech-Language Pathology; Presenter: Jennifer Llado, MS, CCC-SLP; Brenda Lovette, MS, CCC-SLP.She talks a lot about her negative experiences in the profession, and she assumes that we all have had the same experiences. This seems patently wrong.

The presenter did a wonderful job of presenting the purposefulness of implementing mindfulness and positivity into any day. The downside to the information provided is that SLPs in schools, medical settings, and home health are very much in need, yet the environments, from my experiences, appear to be structured to encourage stress and poor stress management. Nothing against the presenter, but she herself does not appear to be currently working in one of those types of environments. We as SLPs need to be aware of healthy stress management but also advocate for practices and policies that encourage healthy stress management. It would be fantastic if ASHA would not just tell us about it, but also the greater forces that need to make the change. I am viewing this presentation during COVID-19 pandemic and this pandemic appears to be shining a light on practices and structures that need to change.

There was not much new information here. These ideas are pretty much mainstream now. As a stressed SLP, it would be more helpful to actually walk through more variety of ways to reduce stress, instead of being told over and over how stressed out we are as a profession. As someone who is implying we should focus on positivity to bring about change for the better, she sure spent a lot of time expanding on how awful it is to be an SLP!? Sorry to say I was a bit disappointed in this course. A bit long and boring.
