STRESS-FUEL: A NEW WAY TO LOOK AT STRESS
​
We’ve all heard the news: stress will kill you / you need to manage stress / you need to avoid stress...
Well…if you’re a human, you know that stress isn’t going anywhere. It’s inevitable. It’s part of living a life. So what if we could change our mindset around stress? What if we weren’t so scared of it? What if we could train our brains so that when a stress response hits, we’re able to choose action (fight) as apposed to in-action (flight / freeze)? Could we actually have that much power over our minds? And each time we choose action (it could look like having a nap, or walking around the block), we are growing our resilience to make us happier, healthier humans.
Through our work with elite athletes, we became curious about their brains’ ability to choose ‘fight’ when faced with a stressful situation and wondered if the rest of us could do the same.
Join Alix Dunham from Grit Workshops for a ‘stress-fuel’ pop-up workshop. Using the science behind neuro-plasticity, we’ll chat, journal, and meditate our way through training our brains to become healthier and more resilient when adversity hits.
