3. Practice effective evidence-based remedies for wellbeing protection when exposed to difficult people.

With over 8 billion people in the world, we often encounter really challenging people that can cause an outsized stress response. If relationships determine the quality of our lives, we can build our relational capacity by deploying skills used in nursing and peace literacy. We must triage the most challenging others around us to reduce the stress effect and protect our own wellbeing, while maintaining the dignity of others.
