technologyTechnology, Stress, Addictive Behavior, Coping: A Panel Discussion November 13 at 6 pm


An incredibly diverse discussion of this very timely topic: It was an excellent event.  See pictures below!

 

     How many times do you, a family member or friend respond to social media or text messages on a daily basis?  Doesn’t it seem as though drivers are more in a rush nowadays?  Could it be that downtime has been replaced with screen viewing that possibly consumes more time leading to an increased pace to get other activities completed?  If this is occurring routinely, what impact does this have on the human body?  What tools exist to combat this heightened level of stress, whether it's at the conscious or subconscious level


     Please join us as we look at addressing these types of questions on Nov 13th at 6pm with a diverse panel.  We’ll start off the discussion looking at some research being conducted at the local university level and then move on to observations within the medical setting.  Topics to be covered include: technology and its effects, making technology work for us, human behavior in the age of internet through the prism of addiction psychiatry, and the role of integrative therapies in managing stress.
 

    REDUCED PRICE! Tickets are $10 per person which includes the Panel, Food, and Drinks.  There will be networking opportunities.
