Event details

Fatigue and brain fog? Chronic pain? Losing focus, burnt out? Find out about the stress illness connection - and what you can do to help heal yourself. Locations: Highfield & Avenue (17 November) and Winchester (19 November).

Tricia's interactive talks will show how stress and unhealed emotions in implicit memory affect body functions like digestion, cognition and metabolism by downregulating mitochondrial energy production with fatigue and brain fog as the result. This workshop will look at how this occurs and, more importantly what you can do to heal yourself of this very debilitating condition. Each talk will include a demonstration of a technique called EMDR for resolving stress - Eye Movement Desensitisation and reprocessing - with volunteers from the audience.

There will be extra time for your questions afterwards.

You have a choice of dates and campuses.  Please reserve your place through Eventbrite:
