Psychological lecture “Stress as it is. How does chronic tension affect the mind and the body?” Zaporizhzhia

Lecture 1.  “Stress as it is. How does chronic tension affect the mind and the body?”

This is the first lecture in the series “Support and resources amid chronic stress,” which consists of four psychological lectures led by the experienced psychologist Viktoriia Mochalova. During the event we will talk about:

? What is chronic stress? How does it affect us physically and emotionally?
? How can you tell that you are in a state of chronic stress? (psychological and physiological signs)
? How does adaptive stress differ from destructive stress?
? How can you recognize your triggers and your patterns of stress reactions?
? Practice: a technique for sensing your own stress level + the “body scan” technique.

Trainer: Viktoriia Mochalova, psychologist

The event is held with the support of HIAS as part of a partnership with the Jewish Federations of North America (JFNA). The content of this publication does not always reflect the views of HIAS and JFNA.
