Optimize Your Brain Flow: 6-Part Online Workshop

Feeling burned out or overwhelmed?

Learn how to clear out brain fog and boost mental performance with this interactive small group workshop

Starting Thursday, October 19, 2023 (11:00 am – 12:30 pm)

‘Brain flow’ refers to a peak mental state that includes a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, effortless performance, and enjoyment. This state of flow can be disrupted by exposure to increased physical, emotional, or cognitive stress, which causes us to become distracted, disorganized, forgetful, and moody. If this sounds familiar, you might be feeling stuck or trapped by work stress, family relationships, or major life transitions. Or, you might be experiencing a stress-related medical condition, postconcussion syndrome, or a somatic symptom disorder.

In this interactive six-part online workshop, learn practical strategies for managing mental fog, burnout, and feelings of overwhelm. We will discuss the role of the central nervous system in activating physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms of stress. Then we will explore proven methods for improving your brain’s resilience, increasing your physical and mental endurance, and regaining a sense of control and self-sufficiency.

This workshop will take place every Thursday for six weeks, beginning on October 19, 2023. Each session will be 90 minutes in length.

Registration is open to adults (18 years of age or older) in any region who have access to a stable internet connection and the ability to use Zoom with an enabled web camera and microphone. To get the most out of this workshop, you should be willing to engage in group discussions and able to practice the suggested strategies on your own between sessions.

Workshop sessions will be presented by Dr. Virginia Newton, a Registered Psychologist with a practice in Clinical Neuropsychology. Participants who are residents of Alberta, Manitoba, or Northwest Territories will also have the opportunity to schedule separate individual sessions with Dr. Newton for cognitive testing, biofeedback/neurofeedback, hypnotherapy, and/or neuropsychological counselling.
