Self awareness is the key to managing stress and anxiety. By understanding your personality type and the personality types of the people around you, you can manage your stress and anxiety levels more effectively, communicate assertively and influence your relationships. In this presentation we look at aspects of stress management and personality types to help build your self awareness and resilience.

Have you sometimes felt that you don’t have anything to say or don’t have the energy to speak up or socialise in larger groups? Having a personality type with a preference for introversion can make life feel difficult; you may struggle to express yourself and make people listen to you. In this presentation, we look at different aspects of introversion, to help unlock anxiety, build self awareness and confidence, and support assertive communication.

As a more introverted person you see life in great detail, look internally for answers and so can tend to worry about things that you cannot influence, as well as all the things that you can! This can create a lot of ‘traffic’ in our minds which takes up space for calm, rational thoughts which allow us to enjoy life, manage our stress, communicate clearly and manage our relationships. It’s not impossible for more introverted people to be happy, optimistic and confident, it just takes a slightly different approach. In this presentation we look at various aspects of how we can manage our introversion to help us feel happier, more confident and optimistic.
