OTR’s Resilience Lab for Young Adults provides an in-person opportunity to develop your emotional literacy and to discuss your mental health in a supportive environment, engaging as much as you feel comfortable.
The workshops mix lively group activities with a safe space for reflection for a period of 5 weeks. You will work in a small group of peers, led by two experienced facilitators, in a private workshop space, either face-to-face or online.
The Resilience Lab workshops are based on research that our personal levels of resilience (the ability to bounce forward after a setback) are not fixed, but learnable. In early adulthood, we are faced with an enormous amount of pressure. These pressures can be overwhelming and can sometimes trap us in a cycle of negative emotions, behaviours and thought patterns. These workshops will help you to understand and gradually adapt your responses to stress, and to develop mechanisms for getting out of that destructive cycle in a way that works for you.
Please contact us (resiliencelab@otrbristol.org.uk) if you have any further questions about the workshop, or if you would like to meet/chat with one of our friendly facilitators before attending.

Workshop Overview
Online Sessions
Following sign-up you will be emailed/text the Zoom link. You can join the session a few minutes early and use the waiting room to get settled and know your tech is working until the session start time. Once in the Zoom meeting you can choose whether you use your video and audio or the chat function. For the sessions, we use a combination of discussion and mentimeter polls to make it interactive.
In-person sessions
Before each workshop, there will be a 15-minute arrival window. You will have access to refreshments and there will be colouring/games provided for you to occupy yourself with whilst you wait. There will then be a ‘go round’ where everyone will introduce themselves, stating their name, pronoun, and a different ice-breaker each week.
