Zoom Talk for Support Group Wednesday, Feb 16, 2022 7PM Central
The last two years have unsettled our lives, our communities and our world. What are the lessons of this global pandemic and how can we move forward through the uncertainty of the future? We’ll review the biology of stress which was first characterized by Hungarian endocrinologist Hans Selye and review the evidence-based mind-body research that has been shown to help. We’ll look at the new research by Alia Crum PhD describing the power of “reframing” stress in our lives and tie in the ancient yoga sutras that predated Dr. Crum’s research by thousands of years.
Key Take-Aways:
- Pandemic fatigue/ennui review
- Stress response review
- Mind-body medicine evidence-based approach
- Reframing stress can be used to “hack” the stress response
- Walking with “yoga feet” in the world
