Session Date: Friday October 20, 2023
Session Time: 1:30 PM – 4:30 PM
Presenter Name: Ms. Kathleen Bokrossy, RDH
Outline:
Energy is defined as available power, the capacity for vigorous activity. As dental hygienists, we are in constant vigorous activity all day long as we multi-task and juggle all aspects of life. Some activities and people are either energy drainers or energy boosters.
Do you have any energy left at the end of the day?
Creating and maintaining a work life balance is imperative in today’s world to help reduce stress and prevent burnout so that we can be present for the people who rely on us. Since most of us spend a large portion of our time at work, we need to create as energizing an environment as possible to maintain happiness, peace, and purpose.
Do you believe you can have work life balance?
Maintaining our energy is directly connected to the health of our clients and patients. Imagine a world where a large percentage of your clients show up healthy. Imagine a world where you have the tools in your hands that are in optimal condition and that you are utilizing for their intended purpose. This is a world that is possible and a world that will help us get off our daily hamster wheel and into a world that is fulfilling and engaging.
