Building Resilience Webinar 4th February 2026

The Invisible Armour: Building Your Psychological Resilience

University is a marathon, not a sprint. The pressure to excel, both academically and personally, can be challenging. We can quickly become overwhelmed when one part of our life is not going to plan. This evidence-based webinar looks at how we can fortify ourselves and make the hard times more manageable.  

Through this webinar, you will learn;

  • Mind over Stress: Learn the psychological triggers that fuel your stress and how to disarm them. Understand the “why” behind your anxiety to better control the “how.”
  • Regulating Emotions: Discover practical, science-based strategies for working with and regulating difficult emotions, rather than being overwhelmed by them.
  • The Art of Self-Soothing: explore self-soothing techniques to calm your nervous system in high-pressure moments, bringing peace and clarity when you need it most.
  • Building Your Inner Worth: Move beyond imposter syndrome and self-doubt. Explore the psychological pillars of self-worth and build a foundation of confidence that academic setbacks can’t shake.
  • Cultivating Your Crew: Learn how to consciously and explicitly develop strong networks of support. Understand the psychology of connection and how to build relationships that truly lift you up.
  • Beyond Balance: Master the mindset of integrating work and life, rather than just balancing them. Create a sustainable rhythm that fuels your studies and your well-being.

Interactions are encouraged, but how much you engage is entirely up to you.
