Resilience – The Key to Personal Resilience
Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Hasler, University of Freiburg (Switzerland)
Perceived stress has been linearly increasing in Western industrialized countries for decades. In Switzerland, up to 50% of workers frequently or very frequently experience stress. Burnout has become a leading cause of work incapacity. An English study of adolescents shows that the frequency of stress symptoms doubled from 1986 to 2006. In this event, Gregor Hasler demonstrates that common concepts such as "burden" and "work-life balance" can be misleading. Using the latest social and neuroscientific research findings, he explains how to recognize stress in oneself and what can be done about it. The proposed resilience strategy involves the psyche, social interactions, nutrition, and awareness.

In addition to objective stresses and excessive demands, there are also inner stressors that create or intensify stress.
externe SeiteTitus Bürgissercall_made, Head of Center for Health Promotion at Lucerne University of Teacher Education, showed how one's own inner stressors can be recognised with the help of psychological models – for example, with the driver model of transactional analysis (TA). He presented ways of overcoming or at least mitigating inner stressors.
