Mind Body Medicine and stress reduction: an introduction as self-awareness
The demands in today's world of work are increasing dramatically: everything has to be done faster and with better quality, also and above all in everyday medical practice. A high work pressure and a high mental stress are on the agenda. Countless information flows into our private lives and claims our attention. This can have a negative impact on both our professional performance and our private lives. Being able to really switch off is a rarity in our performance society. These circumstances have led to "self-care" becoming more and more important in recent years for all people who have to do something daily in our society and still want to remain physically and mentally healthy.
For this reason, the Institute of Social Medicine, Epidemiology and Health Economics, Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, offers a free "Mind-Body Medicine and Stress Reduction Course" especially for doctors and lecturers of the Charité. We want to make a contribution to the fact that each individual can contribute actively to his own well-being through established and evidence-based techniques.
For the sommer term 2021 registrations are accepted.
