Welcome to our online course, "Resilience, Mind and Rhythm".
After carefully assessing our students’ feedback and creating collaborations with different healthcare professional platforms, we decided to expand our scope of offering additionally to everyone, including healthcare centres and communities that may be at greater risk for developing long-term difficulties.
We are expanding our horizon to those who may be struggling with conditions such as anxiety, depression and have a prior history of trauma.
In the past weeks, we have seen a tremendous increase in situations that could potentially lead to a detrimental effect on our mental well-being such as the unexpected loss of a loved one, loss of jobs, and even loss of identity.
What you'll learn
Requirements
Description
When we think about resilience, we think about how you cope and adapt to crises or stressful situations. By becoming more resilient, you will be able to better accept stressful and challenging situations.
In this course, we will explore emotion orientated coping mechanisms, to build up resilience. You will learn simple methods with loads of practical hints that you can use straight away.
Our primary purpose, when RhythmiaBreath team created this online course, was to offer a platform where students can come back at any time to benefit from the tools we carefully put in place. We did so to "anchor" the basics on mental well-being to provide research-lead and easy-to-put-in-place solutions helping those directly affected by the pandemic.
Course Structure
The course is made up of a series of lectures, quizzes and a series of practical activities. The practical activities included within the course are designed to help you develop your resilience and to manage stress.
These include:
Our free course provides you with 12 months of access to our basic course to help you understand and develop the techniques to build resilience. By signing up to our paid subscription, you will have access to new content on a monthly basis to help support you as you face challenging situations and help you further develop the techniques to build emotional resilience.
PLEASE NOTE - The practical activities are fundamental to achieving emotional resilience. These techniques can only be learned through regular practice and can’t be developed just from listening to these audios once.
The course is being continually refined and updated to ensure it remains current and relevant.

We are facing unprecedented times as healthcare professionals that have left us exposed to overwhelming daily stresses and challenges at work. We designed this course to ensure all healthcare professional had free access to the support they needed to cope during such times. Due to the initial reception of this course, we plan to continue to develop and create new monthly content to help support individuals truly engage and adopt these techniques. We do plan to make these available on a paid plan in the future. Once enrolled, the course is free for 12 months to all healthcare professionals and NHS staff.
Initially developed to healthcare professionals, we decided to expand our scope of offering additionally to everyone, including healthcare centres and communities that may be at greater risk for developing long-term difficulties.
