Madurez emocional y afrontamiento: una clase sobre cómo gestionarse a uno mismo

A big part of growing as a person and becoming more mature involves learning how to best manage yourself. That takes good coping skills and emotional maturity. You can be smart, talented and motivated, but still not thrive if you are unable to keep your emotions in check and present yourself well. 
This one-time class will cover what coping skills are, positive vs. negative coping skills, consequences of not using positive coping strategies, emotional maturity, what to do when your emotions run away with you, taking personal responsibility for yourself, and communicating and acting in a more mature way by your own choice. We will identify positive coping skills that you may already use and give examples of new ones for you to try. Some tactics we will discuss are knowing your strengths and playing to them, using creative expression techniques, being introspective, avoiding escapism, controlling your environment, building confidence, taking responsibility for what we can and cannot control, and finding what works best for you. 
This class will be instructor-led, but students are encouraged to participate and share their ideas to teach others, develop relationships, and build confidence.  All learners bring a unique perspective to the table, and we want to hear them all! Plus, we are here to learn new skills together, so this is a safe place to share thoughts and ideas in a way that is respectful and empowering.
As the teacher, I will share information on topics, ask critical thinking questions to help students relate the topic to the real world, give real-world examples, moderate the direction of class communication, and make it fun and engaging. I also love to hear new ideas, so if you have input on this class or others you would like to see offered, I am excited to hear what you have to say!
