Healthy Farmer Agriwebinar Series

Part 1: You
with Gerry Friesen, The Recovering Farmer

We live in a fast-paced world where things are always changing. It is tough to get what you want. It is tough to keep up. At times it is simply a matter of survival. This chaos we work in and live in can have a detrimental effect on our health, our well-being and our relationships. It has the ability to create stress and conflict. To a degree, we thrive in chaos, but it does take its toll. Then as the body and mind become weary, our behaviours have a tendency to change. Our expectations for ourselves increase. Our expectations for others increase. And as that happens, relationships suffer, conflict ensues, and stress increases. Through research and lived experience find out how you can bring a sense of sanity and a more balanced life to the chaotic world we live in.

The research also has strong recommendations for how leaders can improve their effectiveness.
