1 CPD unit (Practice Management / Business Skills)

Presenter: Dr Hayley North, Neuroscientist at Understand Your Brain

In this workshop, we explore the evolution of the stress system in our brain and body and how it responds to modern psychological stressors with outdated physiological reactions. We learn how to maintain the right balance of stress, because short-term (acute) stress can benefit our productivity and attentional focus. However long-term (chronic stress) can cause burnout, and lead to physical and mental illness. We discuss and practice strategies to immediately reduce stress and change key lifestyle factors to build resilience and tolerance to future stressors.

About the Presenter:
Dr North founded Understand your Brain because she is passionate about communicating neuroscience research for everyday application to improve lives. She has a PhD in neuroscience and dedicates her life to a scientific understanding of the brain and sharing that understanding with the wider community to improve well-being. Her laboratory research and publications uncover molecular and genetic changes in mental illness. But it's Hayley's contagious enthusiasm and ability to explain complex topics to non-scientists that has engaged audiences around the world to implement positive and lasting change.
