Following from the success in 2011, the Young Lawyers section is once again hosting three sessions focusing on personal sustainability.
The Health & Wellbeing series will explore three different topics while focusing on the health and wellbeing of new lawyers, arming them with information on these topics and the impacts on lawyers specifically in order to assist them throughout their professional and personal lives.  The focus of this series is prevention and intervention. 

Session 2 Topic: Managing Stress and Anxiety (25 July, 12.30pm)
