Uncertainty pervades our everyday lives, in both the personal and professional domains. When faced with this uncertainty, however, we often long for safety and control. This mismatch can contribute not only to uncomfortable physical sensations and emotions, but also to protective patterns of behaviour as we try to create agency. During this interactive workshop, attendees will learn about the science of uncertainty while having opportunities for self-reflection and discussion about their experiences. Opportunities will also be provided to
explore and share strategies about how to navigate times of uncertainty.

​

Learning Objectives:

At the end of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Describe physical sensations and emotions related to uncertainty

2. Examine personal patterns of response to uncertainty to create agency

3. Discover strategies to work with uncertainty
