Please join us for an IP Inclusive and Jonathan's Voice event to mark Mental Health Awareness Week 2023. This wonderful session, led by mindfulness expert Dr Sally Rose, will introduce practices and concepts that can help us to get our own attention, focus, manage distractions and build mental stability. It will also outline how mindfulness can help us to recognise difficulties when they arise and to meet them head on, which in turn can develop our stress tolerance and open up new possibilities for coping and adapting.

The Mental Health Awareness Week theme this year is "anxiety". What better way to help yourself and others cope with the issues that make you feel anxious, whether at work or at home?

Meet our presenter

Dr Sally Rose is a psychotherapist and mindfulness teacher who leads the Staff Counselling and Psychological Support Service at the University of Leeds. Her interest and area of expertise is in using mindfulness skills and qualities as the foundation for skilful self-care of minds at work across the mental health continuum – optimising performance and mitigating stress-related risks.

Who's it for?

This event is for all UK-based IP professionals who are interested in mental wellbeing. We don't mind where you work, what role you play there or what career level you're at. This is an important topic, which touches many and matters to all of us.

If you have any special accessibility requirements, please let us know when you register and we'll do what we can to help.

Bring a guest!

At IP Inclusive we want to reach as many IP people as possible. Why not invite a guest to watch the webinar with you - someone in a different role or at a different career level, perhaps; an ally or potential ally; or a colleague who's not yet involved with IP Inclusive? They'll be most welcome!

Cost

This event is free. So are all our resources. The Jonathan's Voice events and resources are also free at the point of delivery.

That said, both organisations do need money to keep the show on the road, so if you enjoy the event please consider contributing. For more information, visit the IP Inclusive fundraising page or the Jonathan's Voice donations page.
