​The physical and mental demands of first responders are overwhelming. Seasoned first responders often battle cumulative symptoms of secondary trauma, anxiety, and depression. This program aims to reduce these symptoms through tools to increase situational awareness and tactical mobility, which can boost mental, emotional, and physical health.

Designed for the unique demands of emergency service work, this evidence-based program offers practical tools to reduce chronic stress, sharpen focus, and support both well-being and performance. Whether you're responding to a crisis or decompressing at home, these techniques are designed to be accessible, effective, and easy to integrate into operational environments and daily life. ​

Empowering First Responders in Oklahoma with Tools to Build Adaptability and Situational Awareness When Answering the Call

How It Works

The program combines stress-relief exercises, guided group discussions, and stretching/movement to support physical and emotional regulation. Over the course of six weeks, participants build skills to manage stress and develop sustainable self-care routines that enhance both on-duty performance and off-duty recovery.

To track outcomes, participants complete pre- and post-assessments, and will also use a WHOOP bracelet to monitor biometric data such as sleep quality, recovery, and stress levels throughout the program.
