Workshop: Discover your window of tolerance - a new way to manage your stress and energy
Brussels: 9 February 2022
-- Please note new venue and Covid rules below --
Stress is your body responding to things you find challenging. Understanding your stress physiology can help you to manage your responses better. This is because you will become more aware of what is happening in your body; and awareness brings choice.
In this workshop, you will learn about Stephen Porges' Window of Tolerance. This information can help you to manage your mind and keep it away from anxiety making thoughts. It can show you how to stay calm more often. It can also help you find your way from stress to calm, quickly and consciously. As a result, it can help you to better manage your energy levels.
This workshop will include learning new information, self-reflection, role-play and discussions. You will walk away with:
- Information on how the nervous system works and how this can help you.
- New insights into your own response patterns to stress and how you can change them.
- Practical experience in managing your nervous system
So, join us and learn how to manage your stress.
