Navigating Change, Setbacks & Uncertainty
Explains what is happening in our body and our brain when we are facing change, setbacks and uncertainties and shares practical strategies to foster optimism and resilience.
“Life is a rollercoaster. You can either scream every time you hit a bump or you can throw your hands up in the air and enjoy the ride!"
We go through life making plans but life has its own way of constantly throwing bumps in the road and curve balls at us. Setbacks, change, uncertainties are a part of life. Even though it might be in the right direction, change creates disruptions in the pattern based functioning of our brain. The uncertainties it brings and sometimes the necessity to come out of our comfort zone triggers a stress response that affects our wellbeing and performance.
We naturally tend to resist all discomfort but this unconscious resistance is hard on us as individuals but also for our businesses.
The better you are able to go with the flow, adapt and stay positive, the easier it will be for you to live your best life at work and at play.
This workshop explores what is happening in our body and our brain when we are facing change, setbacks and uncertainties and how this impacts our behaviours, our emotional states but also our performance. It explains the neurobiology of change and explores the default cycle of change based on resistance and stress.
Once we understand how our brain works, we can introduce a new and positive cycle of change to support wellbeing and performance. The workshop teaches how to step back, take stock, restore emotional balance and start to find a way through. We explore how we process loss, and how to connect with your inherent abilities to heal, learn and grow.
Participants will leave the workshop with a set of tangible tools and strategies to embrace change, foster creativity and optimism, bounce back from difficulties, to shift from difficult emotions to a place of calm and to keep on going with confidence.
