Webinar Recordings

Watch our sessions, free

Watch our free webinars on exam stress, burnout, resilience, and study skills, recorded with students across Sri Lanka - full topic list for every session.

Our webinars bring together students from across Sri Lanka for interactive sessions on exam pressure, burnout, resilience, and study skills. Every recording is free to watch, and you can play each one right here on this page.

Each session below lists exactly what it covers, so you can go straight to the one you need. If you're dealing with exam pressure or a stretched-thin week right now, Handling Exam Stress and Self-Care for Busy Students are good reads alongside these recordings.

Session content reviewed by Ms Dilki Kandagamuwa, Academic Advisor at The Soul Care.

What runs through every session

Resilience is a skill, not a trait

Nobody is born with it. It grows with practice, the same way a muscle does.

Recovery is part of performance

Rest, sleep, and breaks are not time lost. They are how your brain consolidates what you learned.

Connection protects

Students who talk about their stress cope better than those who carry it alone.
