This 90-minute talk explores our amazing inbuilt survival system, an incredible system that runs 24/7 to keep us safe, but can also create untold amounts of overtime that can cometimes leave us feeling stressed and anxious.
The brain processes emotions like fear, anger and worry, and how that can start an hormonal chain reaction, creating a range of physical and psychological responses that left unchecked, can build up like an emotional and physical Jenga tower, wobbly and on the verge of collapse.
When we know how the system works, we are better able to stay in control - even if the foundations are a little wobbly!
Delegates will leave this session with a great understanding of how both these systems work so that they can use them more effectively as well as gaining some simple tips and strategies to help stay in control of both!
In this talk delegates will consider:
•The science of emotion and our innate survival and psychological systems
• How and why the stress response system gets activated and the typical chain reaction of physical and cognitive responses.
• A range of strategies that can soothe and support moments of overwhelm, stress and negative thoughts.
This session is suitable and adapted for ages 11+
