Our personal wellbeing is the basis for enjoying our profession even more and being happy in it.
We can learn tools to identify, feel, live and channel our emotions towards our well-being. Positive Psychology is our ally.
During our training and professional development, we receive (and choose) a preferably technical education, linked to achieving the goal of being "good veterinary doctors" and elite professionals in the various specialty areas of our profession: public health, senior animal medicine, companion animal medicine, teaching, production, research, in the commercial and marketing areas, etc.
How ever,we give ourselves little opportunity to learn other skills that allow us to effectively communicate our knowledge and to interact optimally with others in work and / or personal environments.
Incredibly, even less often, we give ourselves the option to think about ourselves, to take care of ourselves, to learn to "be well" and "feel good." It is time to put priorities in perspective and focus on ourselves as well.
+VIBES wants to provide tools to stimulate your wellbeing and that you learn to
use them, to overcome and face the obstacles of life and our profession, and achieve to "be-well"
more often, savoring every moment that is possible.
+VIBES, wants to fill a postponed or forgotten space for veterinary doctors, that
of learning to "feel good", to get away from burn-out, which, unfortunately, is
ery present in the student and work environment of our profession, worldwide.
+VIBES wants to prevent burn-out, reducing its presentation rates in the student and work world of our profession.
+VIBES wants +VIBES, that is, "More Veterinarians Involved in Being well Emotionally and SSocially".
+VIBES is based on positive psychology: the scientific study of
positive experiences and emotions, positive characteristics of people and positive institutions. We have integrated this knowledge into veterinary medicine to create this course.
+VIBES it is also based on reality ... on a reality that can be harsh: that our life and profession is fragile, challenging, hard at times and certainly very difficult ... sometimes leading us to think that we cannot cope with everything that happens to us. However, it is also based on (and wants to show) another reality, different and more positive, inviting us to appreciate invisible aspects of it.
+ VIBES is not the solution to all the problems that we have to face, rather it shows us a way to know how to face them.
+ VIBES is not naive positive thinking, or we would say “the world is pink” or “don't worry, everything will be fine” or “always smile, every minute” or “your goal is your happiness” or “you must and you have to be happy in spite of everything ”.
+ VIBES is not a course that generates and promises instant or magical happiness, but rather wants to help you choose spend most of your life in wellbeing, because equally life will give us hard times and will bring new unexpected adversities.
