I now know what a Crisis Triage Center is and that we have one in our community. I can not reach out to the CTC if I am the one in a crisis or if it is someone else in a crisis I can refer them to the CTC.

Something I have learned through this lesson is that the same things that cause stress and burnout are the same things that cause unhappiness in your life and you deal with it in the same way. I have already started breathing exercises and will try getting more sleep and eating healthier.

This section has shown me how important it is to be transparent when it comes to stress in both my professional and personal life.

By checking email in the afternoon you can respond to them and not have to check them again until the following day creating more time for yourself.

I have learned that the key to reducing stress is to recognize that you are in control of your time and then to create a to-do list based on priority and break larger tasks into smaller more manageable tasks.

It is important to have open communication with students and for them to know your expectations as well as how this course fits into the career they are working towards.  I will be updating my syllabus so what is important stands out!
