COURSE
Stress and the Power of Choosing Your Solution: Part 1 (Foundations)
With Alice Langholt
This course is the first of a series on this topic. It introduces foundational insights into the origins of stress, its reasons for being there, its causes, and the symptoms stress creates in the mind, body, and emotions. From the physiological responses within our bodies to the cascading effects on our cognitive functions and emotional well-being, you'll get a new perspective on the stress response overall. This course will reintroduce you to your power: attention, which can help you intentionally select the most effective approach to releasing the stress immediately. You'll be introduced to the strategy of mindfully choosing tools, tailored to your unique experience, to address stress from physical, mental, and emotional perspectives.

Very good and useful short series of talks. Beneficial for all to listen to to understand themselves and others better too, to lead a healthier happier life. However most people don’t seem to want to know or think they know or forget to. There’s a lot of basic information here to open your mind and heart to. Thank you 🙏🏼

Intro teaser only. No actual stress-management tools. …but in the classroom she “hopes” we can locate where she uploaded the rest of her materials. If you want your stress to get more pronounced instead of less, this is your course.

I liked that the sessions were shirt so I could take in all the information. Great introductory course that clearly described the stress response and offers hope that we can all help ourselves calm our stress responses.
