The Live Well Through Self-Care Wellness Workshops series is a County of San Diego Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) employee wellness training program designed to support our workforceâs mental and emotional health while building resiliency. This was especially crucial after collectively working through and surviving the COVID-19 pandemic. The program is comprised of three different training topics: Trauma and Healing, Grief and Gratitude, and Burnout and Renewal. Each training is 3.5 hours and includes a practice session that teaches healthy habits to process difficult feelings and healing through various challenging factors in life. These classes are delivered at a county park location to create the ideal training environment for staff to feel safe, relaxed, and engaged, which helps to lower stress levels and boost mood.
