Why are some people more susceptible to overstress than others?

It will be led by Lynn Leahy. Lynn is a successful international speaker who has spoken in over 20 countries, throughout Europe, Asia, in the USA, and Australia and New Zealand. She co-founded the Oakridge Centre, a successful international training business, based near Manchester in England. She has helped teams at every level in organisations and has won two awards with Vistage International for her work with CEO’s throughout the UK.

Lynn has a Master’s degree in the behavioural sciences. She is an accredited mediator and a trained relationship counsellor. She draws on a range of psychotherapeutic approaches in her work. Lynn’s success comes from her ability to offer complex theories about behaviour and relationships in a clear, practical way that everyone understands and can relate to.

Objectives
The session will help you:
• Understand exactly what stress is (the biology)
• Explore how you and others can manage stress using a powerful model, the cycle of stress and distress.
• Understand certain beliefs that you and others can hold which could result in you stressing yourself.
• Understand some of the crucial skills and qualities that you will need, to help those you care about, manage overstress – enabling them to stay within their own stress optimum.
