Webinar- CLE Pass Eligible

Presented by the Lawyer Wellbeing Committee

About the Program

Lawyers routinely push through high-demand periods — trials, deadlines, year-end pressures, and the cumulative load of constant availability. This 1-hour program offers practical, science-backed strategies for “skillful recovery”: how to reset after intense
workload, rebuild cognitive capacity, and re-enter work with clarity and control. Drawing from research on attention, stress physiology, and healthy boundaries, participants will learn realistic tools they can apply immediately to sustain performance and wellbeing.

You Will Learn

• How to identify the cognitive and physiological effects of prolonged high workload
• How to apply practical short-term and long-term recovery strategies to restore focus and reduce overwhelm
• How to use boundary-setting, prioritization, and “attention architecture” tools to support sustained well-being after periods of heavy work
• How to develop a personalized recovery plan to use after future high-intensity periods.
