Hurried Adult/Hurried Child November 2, 2006

Hurried Adult/Hurried Child – Dr. Colin D. Sturdy

Our society is hurried!

As adults, we wear a great number of 'hats' - in our personal life, work life, and home life. All this "busyness" contributes to a feeling of burnout. This hurried lifestyle is being modeled for our children and unless WE slow down, our children will incorporate it into THEIR adult lifestyle. As parents, do we want this for our children?

Issues such as work stress, home life stress, and personal stress are addressed. Specific topics include: perfectionism, procrastination, downsizing, organizing, exercise, relaxation, life events, time management, diet, sleep patterns, friends and family, pets, volunteering and vacationing.
This session will address the above issues and how they create stress in our lives, our family's lives and our children’s lives. Suggestions on how to deal with them and slow down our lifestyle is the backbone of this 1 1/4 hour presentation.

This session is ideal for parent councils, parent communities and educators alike who wish to 'slow down' their lifestyle and model a more appropriate pace for their children and/or students.
