Join Health Coach Alex for a masterclass all about regulating your nervous system. When your nervous system is out of balance, your body can go into panic mode, making it difficult to move, breathe, swallow, and affecting your memory and mood. When we are overly stressed or overwhelmed, it is hard to bring ourselves back down. We might know what to do, but it can be challenging to get there. During this workshop, we will discuss things to look out for and different triggers that might arise. We will explore actionable tools to help calm the nervous system before it spirals out, as well as ways to prevent it from happening. We are all different and have unique triggers. It’s about looking inward and understanding what is coming up for you so it can be addressed and calmed. It's not always easy to regulate our nervous system once it is overwhelmed. That’s why we will focus on ways to relax it before it reaches that point.


Learning to Relax: How to Regulate Your Nervous System

A dynamic and thought-provoking masterclass highlighting the power of adopting an entrepreneurial mindset no matter what your job role. Social media paints a glamorised image of an entrepreneur and most of the time it is far from not realistic but what is realistic is being able to utilise the best parts of an entrepreneurial mindset to optimise our own daily behaviours. Realising we can adopt an entrepreneur mindset and experience both the personal and organisational benefits that bring is what this workshop is formulated on. Broken into three parts: pre-match, game time and post-match, this workshop focuses on the habits and behaviours we need to implement ahead of our working days, during and afterwards to ensure we are being the best version of ourselves in our careers and operating in a way that is sustainable for performance. Continuous improvement and learning, personal branding, pushing boundaries, innovation, resilience, collaboration, mindset and effective recovery are just a few of the topics covered in this session!

The Art of Resilience

Creating a neuroinclusive workplace involves adopting practices that recognise and accommodate the diverse needs of neurodivergent individuals, such as those with autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurological conditions.

44% of organisations now have neuroinclusive strategies in place, compared to 34% in 2023. Saying this 1 in 3 workplaces surveyed still lack a central commitment and there is a lot of work still to be done (The 2024 Neurodiversity Index).

This is an area we are huge advocates of. We are really excited to be joined by Julie Hedge, Legal PA at global law firm Shoosmiths for a “HumanOS Heroes” special discussing how organisations can create a more neuroinclusive workplace and support neurodiverse individuals within their organisation.

Julie is passionate about raising awareness about mental health. She is a mental health champion at Shoosmiths and has recently just been appointed as a Champion for LawCare. Julie was awarded the “Lifetime Achievement Award” at the West Midlands PA Forum in 2021 and is a finalist at this year’s awards for PA of the Year and Project Champion of the Year for all the work she has done in terms of social mobility and collaborating with the Birmingham’s Youth City Board and West Midlands Police regarding VAWG – Violence against Women and Girls.

For leadership/management teams or anyone interested in learning more about what companies can do in this area, this is one for you.
