Body Wisdom:
Using Your Body's Signals to Increase Wellbeing at Work
Seminar with psychotherapist Linda Hoeben (Belgium)
Four evening sessions: May 18, 21 & June 11, 18
CONTEXT
As you take part in the ‘Urban Jungle’ you are probably used to doing things quickly. You feel
good when you’ve finished a job which meets the highest standards of your customers, your
management board, or your own assessment.
You often expect a lot from yourself and therefore from your body, - you might ignore some
stress complaints in your body, such as headaches, pressure around your heart area, lower back
pains, digestive problems, concentration problems, mood swings, problems in regulating your
body temperature, etc.
You forget that the rhythm in our society/in the Urban Jungle now is much faster than it was
some decades ago. Your body might not been genetically designed, or at least it didn’t have the
time, to adapt to this fast pace and these high expectations.
Luckily, your body is wise! It has an inner wisdom and it knows if the price you are paying to
survive in the Urban Jungle is too high. You body knows when it needs rest, stillness; when it
needs healthy food, when it needs to be close to another body.
Your body knows the difference between healthy stress that stimulates you, and on the other
hand the unhealthy stress that might be straining your health.
PROGRAMME
