Not as relaxing or hot as Palma de Mallorca in 2019, but it was nice to present at #STAR2021 on Irish people's #coping, #resilience and #flourishing during lockdown and it was great to catch up with new research emerging from @SASHLab @DrSGallagher

@SASHLab alumna @BrendaHOConnell is up next talking about gratitude and how this might impact on cardiovascular responses to stress. Gratitude and thankfulness can have an impact on stress as it happens regardless of general levels of day to day gratitude. #STAR2019

A series of fantastic talks in today's symposium on cardiovascular responding to stress. The future is bright! @grace_mc7 @AdamORiordan172 @BrendaHOConnell @aiscoss @Siobhan_Howard and Annie Ginty #STAR2019
