Natural Disasters

In this week’s discussion, we explore the impact of natural disasters and stress, such as wildfires and hurricanes. These events can disrupt both professional and personal lives, with research showing an increase in depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use as a consequence. A heightened level of threat can disrupt our sleep as well. Discover how natural disasters affect mental health and learn effective strategies to maintain wellbeing during these challenging times. What techniques can you adopt to navigate crises or trauma? #BeWell
