Workplace Stress: Nervous System Basics for Wellbeing

Training for staff at all levels to understand the role the nervous system plays in workplace stress and to learn how to build resilience to stressors, for wellbeing, productivity and improved team relationships.
In this workshop, delegates will:
  • Learn the basics of The Polyvagal Theory, to gain understanding of the three states of the autonomic nervous system and the fight/flight/freeze survival responses
  • Become aware of how our survival states occur as a stress response, impacting our effectiveness, productivity and capacity to work well with others
  • Create a map of their own nervous system for greater self-awareness and self-care 
  • Reflect on what triggers their own survival responses in the workplace, and identify ways to reduce stressors and prevent overwhelm
  • Learn how people’s nervous systems communicate with each other and how to use this awareness for more effective leadership, teamwork and greater wellbeing in the workplace
  • Discover how to promote an open culture around mental health and nervous system health, for increased resilience, confidence, connection and psychological safety in the workplace
  • Learn a simple process to make goals more achievable by partnering with their own nervous system and to make what they have learned practical in their day-to-day experience

Testimonial:

“Nicola expertly guided us through the intricacies of the autonomic nervous system, offering practical insights on how our survival states impact our personal and professional lives.

Her session was a perfect blend of theory and application. We delved into the polyvagal theory, creating personalised nervous system maps for enhanced self-awareness. Nicola then shared invaluable techniques for nervous system regulation which can help with self-care and increased productivity.

Her session was both interesting and enjoyable. Her approach to setting nervous system-friendly goals gave everyone a new perspective on achieving business objectives with greater ease.

If you’re looking to enhance your understanding of stress management, self-care, and business performance through the lens of neuroscience, I highly recommend connecting with Nicola.”
