The lecture will explore how to recognize stress states and support oneself during periods of uncertainty. Attendees will learn about bodily reactions to tension, simple breathing and relaxation practices, the role of creativity in recovery, as well as get acquainted with bilateral stimulation and its application in psychotherapy. Uncertainty often acts unnoticed: the body becomes tense, thoughts race faster, familiar tasks require more effort, and anxiety may seem like a background that a person gradually becomes accustomed to. The lecture by psychologist, art therapist, and EMDR therapist Ekaterina Berseneva will help to take a closer look at such states and understand which signals are important to notice before fatigue becomes permanent. The meeting will discuss how stress manifests and why the body reacts to it not only with emotions but also with breathing, muscle tension, sleep, concentration, and the feeling of internal focus or its loss. Attendees will learn how to recognize stress states in time, what actions help recovery, and what can work as a prevention of emotional overload. Register on Timepad.
