#WorkFair Workshop: 5 Keys to a Calmer You

5 Keys to a Calmer You: How to hack your nervous system to take back control of your life and become a super-spreader of safety

It’s been a tough couple of years on the planet. For good or for ill no one has been unaffected by the massive changes in our world. Levels of stress have increased and mental health is daily in the news. For many people, their sense of wellbeing has been profoundly affected by the uncertainty of the moment, touching every aspect of life - from health, to work, to relationships.

As humans, we unconsciously pick up on the feelings of others. If we’re surrounded by stressed-out people, like a second virus the feeling of the threat becomes contagious passing from person to person until deep down many of us no longer feel safe. We automatically mobilise our Neurobiology of Threat to defend ourselves from attack, shifting from feeling calm to feeling angry, anxious, frozen, helpless or out of control.

If this is you or the people around you, there’s good news. Just as we have a Neurobiology of Threat, we also have a Neurobiology of Safety, which we can consciously control. In this intro workshop, you’ll learn 5 easy keys to hack into your operating system to bring back a sense of calm and control in your life and spread to others. We’ll cover:

- Stress - the internal switch that triggers it
- Overwhelm - how and why it happens
- Safety - how to recognise, replicate and share the feeling

The safer you feel in yourself, the safer others will feel around you, turning you into a super-spreader of safety and a beacon of calm in any stressed-out space.

This workshop will be sponsored by Booking.com
