Relaxation and preparation for the FRCA exam

Relaxation and preparation for the FRCA exam

Dr Emma Plunkett speaks to Dr Jim Brunning and Dr Joe Pick about wellbeing in the context of preparing for and sitting the FRCA examination. Drawing on their own experiences Jim, Joe and Emma discuss the importance of relaxation, sleep, time-management, and more. They explore methods exam candidates can apply in their own preparations, anxiety and imposter syndrome, and how to take a healthy perspective.

Many of the tools they discuss apply to general wellbeing and work/life pressures, not just for exam candidates.

This discussion is accompanied by a guided relaxation audio resource, also available in your Anaesthesia on Air podcast feed, or to download at the link below. The relaxation recording, led by Jim Brunning, can be saved and used in any relevant situation.
