Online training specialist Moxie Media, New Orleans, La., has released a free online training program designed to help families support the mental health of mariners<\/a> while they are at sea.<\/p>\n The program, \u201cSupporting Your Mariner\u2019s Mental Health: A Guide for Loved Ones,\u201d is intended as a companion to the company\u2019s \u201cMariner Mental Health: Wellness on the Water,\u201d which provides mariners with tools for recognizing stress, building resilience and supporting crewmates.<\/p>\n \u201cMariners face long separations, isolation and high-pressure environments, but they do not experience those challenges alone,\u201d said Martin Glenday, president of Moxie Media. \u201cFamilies and loved ones play an essential role in their well-being, and this new course gives them guidance and strategies to strengthen that support.\u201d<\/p>\n The guide uses real-world scenarios that reflect stages of a mariner\u2019s time away from home, including preparing for departure, maintaining communication during a hitch and reconnecting after returning. Modules cover relationship building, stress management and communication strategies.<\/p>\n The training is available at no cost through Moxie Media\u2019s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n The post Free mental health training unveiled for mariners\u2019 families<\/a> appeared first on Marine Log<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
