Creative Resilience

About the event

This session is for anyone in the creative industries who is interested in developing their understanding of psychological and physical resilience and applying this to their day-to-day life.

• Name the 3 key zones within the emotional brain which determine our thoughts, feelings and behaviours
• Discern how your own thoughts, feelings and behaviours are impacting your resilience levels
