Online program looks at avoiding attorney burnout

The State Bar of Michigan’s Lawyers & Judges Assistance Program (LJAP) will host its first ever virtual wellness event — “Resourcing Yourself Right to Bypass Burnout in the New Legal Landscape” on Friday, October 14, from 10 to 11:30 a.m.

Speaker Laura Mahr of Conscious Legal Minds will help attendees gain the tools they need to identify and prevent burnout. The session includes information on the four main causes of burnout in the legal community and key strategies to avoid them. The session also will provide attendees with tools that can be used to build resilience in two-minute spurts throughout the workday as well as a guided eight-step process to reveal where attorneys are most depleted in their lives and how to recover when they feel drained.

The event will be hosted via Zoom and the link will be provided upon registration. Attendees also will receive a certificate of completion for the seminar. To register, visit https://michbar.wufoo.com/forms/sbm-virtual-wellness-seminar-registration.
