What is this workshop about?
We've heard the saying "a sound mind in a sound body" for a long time, and it couldn't be more true. There is a profound connection between our body and mind, and this connection greatly influences our overall well-being. By nurturing both, we can achieve a more balanced and fulfilling life.
In this workshop, we will explore the body-mind connection and examine the physiology of stress to understand how the nervous system responds to stress and the effects it has on our body and mind. Additionally, we will explore how our emotions influence our physical state, diet and sleep, and how sleep, diet, and exercise, in turn, influence our emotions.
