See CRICOS-registered alternativesIn this online subject, you will learn about a range of approaches to managing stress and enhancing well-being which can be applied by individuals in a self-care context. As a foundation, you will learn about stress and coping, well-being and happiness. This content includes different theories and models used in psychology to explain these concepts. Then you will explore the theory, scholarly evidence base, and practice of a range of self-care approaches, grouped into three themes: Lifestyle (healthy eating, physical activity, sleep, relaxation, social connections, and nature engagement) Mindfulness (everyday/informal mindfulness, formal mindfulness and meditation, compassion and self-compassion) and Positive Psychology (gratitude, acts of kindness, character strengths, meaning in life, flow and creativity). You will learn how to think critically regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the self-care approaches covered. Throughout the subject, there is a focus on understanding the mechanisms of action of these approaches (how they “work”). These mechanisms could be psychological (e.g., relating to mental activities like attention and emotion regulation) and/or biological (e.g., relating to physiological activity in the nervous system and/or endocrine system). In each weekly online module, content is presented in text and video formats, along with interactive online learning activities and additional scholarly readings. In practical activities and assessments, you will discuss, apply, and reflect on the techniques discussed in the subject content.
