Spring Well-Being Series: From Cynicism to Radical Acceptance – How to cope during challenging times
May 8 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
This one-hour interactive workshop will explore cynicism and how it is often leveraged as a protection mechanism during challenging and overwhelming times. We will also delve into the concept of radical acceptance and how it allows us to accept what is happening around us in a way that opens us to intentionally choosing and changing our path forward. Cynicism abdicates our sense of what we can control from the perspective of what is wrong or painful in our environments (and convinces us it’s not worth trying to change). Conversely, radical acceptance supports us in facing our realities and in identifying what is within our control.
All members of the UW Medicine community are welcome to participate.
