Join Dr Andrew Morrice for a deep dive into what the latest mind-body research tells us about the impact of sleep, the microbiome, nutrition, culinary practices and more on our mental and physical health, and recovery … -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Length: 1 day (9.30am - 4.00pm) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > A brilliant framework to understand the neurobiology of our needs and how to > manage stress > > DR ALLY JAFFEE, NHS DOCTOR -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHY TAKE THIS COURSE Sleep and sound nutrition are widely recognised to be essential to mental health – this day gives you an opportunity to learn about these two areas in depth, including the role of the Microbiome. A greater understanding of these two areas can be vital in freeing ourselves from the ‘mind-only mindset’ to help us quickly and effectively resolve many of our difficulties in life. Sleep has always been integral to the human givens approach and this course is a chance to catch up on recent advances in understanding and evidence as to which approaches best help with poor sleep. We will explore how sleep allows for the physical recuperation, learning and emotional regulation that are key to improving many mental health problems. The role of food and the microbiome in mental health is seldom part of managing the immediate challenges we face, yet is so important in preventing difficulties, or maintaining recovery, that it is an area in which we can benefit from feeling greater confidence when guiding and advising our clients (or ourselves!). Throughout the day, tutor and GP Andrew Morrice [https://www.humangivens.com/person/dr-andrew-morrice/] draws on the latest research and his decades of experience managing the complex combination of mental and physical health problems in General Practice (20 of those years, using the Human Givens model), to take us on a deep dive into two of the key interfaces between mind and body: sleep and food, and their effects on our health. > Andrew is a most inspiring teacher who is passionate about his subject. > Furthermore, his experience as a doctor was invaluable... > > PSYCHOTHERAPIST / COUNSELLOR WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * The structure of sleep – and the functions of the different stages of sleep, including Non-REM and Slow Wave/Deep sleep * The fundamental conditions required to promote healthy sleep * The challenges of assessing sleep properly both for ourselves and others * The complex relationships between sleep disturbances and depression, anxiety, pain syndromes and fatigue states, plus * Simple organising ideas for navigating all this complexity * What we can do to help resolve sleep difficulties so that we can wake feeling refreshed and emotionally prepared for the next day * The fundamental science of the Microbiome – and its links to inflammation, mental health and physical health * The eating patterns that worsen or help in mental and emotional health * How and why processed foods undermine and confuse our innate guidance systems * An understanding of the many other factors impinging on our ability to ‘forage’ well in the modern ‘food environment’ * The basis on which foods or eating can become addictive, and how this can point to ways to address these difficulties * Why we should consider the implications of the fasting state for our work * How Human Givens tools can help clarify many of the confusions around food * How to spot diet cults, tribes, and misleading claims * Eating patterns we can confidently recommend to support health and wellbeing * A review of how depression can be seen as a mind-body state rather than a ‘mental health disorder’ * You will also have time to ask our expert tutor questions and benefit from group discussions -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Course Programme The ‘The Mind-Body Connection in depth: Movement, Emotion and Calm’ course starts at 9.30am and runs until 4.00pm. * From 8.30am Registration (Tea and coffee served until 9.25am) * 9.30am Microbiome and Diet – Finding our Food: how did this get so complicated and confusing? * 10.45am Discussion over tea/coffee * 11.15am Understanding Processing, Addiction and Tribalism * 12.45pm Lunch (included) * 1.30pm Getting a good night's sleep * 2.45pm Discussion over tea/coffee * 3.00pm Sleep, depression and inflammation * 4.00pm Day ends -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHO IS THIS COURSE SUITABLE FOR? * The Mind-Body Connection In Depth series is open to anyone interested in deepening their understanding of mental and physical health. * If you previously attended Andrew Morrice’s Mind-Body Connection course, and would like to spend more time on practical applications, the microbiome, the interface between diet and mental health and to thoroughly review the topic of sleep – this course is for you. * Please note: you don’t need to have attended the previous Mind-Body Connection course to come on this one, or its sister course ‘Movement, Emotion and Calm’. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://directory.cpdstandards.com/providers/human-givens-college/ This course has been independently accredited by the internationally recognised CPD Standards Office [https://directory.cpdstandards.com/providers/human-givens-college/] for 6 hours of CPD training.

WHY TAKE THIS COURSE Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is not only distressing for sufferers but for their family members and friends too. Contrary to the popular view of OCD being harmless over-cleanliness or simply checking things over and over again, people living with OCD experience a high level of anxiety – and the condition can damage their relationships, social and work lives, and physical health. Many sufferers are ashamed of their problem and hide it. Sometimes therapists fail to recognise the rarer forms of OCD and therefore fail to offer effective treatment. And many people with milder forms of OCD do not realise that they can be helped, and do not seek help until their condition becomes much more severe. This accredited live online course offers an in-depth look at OCD in all its guises and focuses on practical and effective methods of treatment – OCD recovery is possible in most cases. The day is interactive and includes demonstration videos of therapy sessions, short video clips, in-depth discussions and case studies. > The films of the therapy sessions and the video of dealing with intrusive > thoughts were particularly useful > > SCHOOL NURSE   WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * New information that will enable you to help OCD sufferers more effectively * A better understanding of OCD, what it is and how it develops * The ability to recognise the less familiar types of OCD – these are often missed by both client and therapist * An effective 4-step method for treating OCD * New ways to help people overcome their compulsive tendencies * Illuminating video clips of OCD sufferers describing their experience * Helpful ways parents and educators can prevent signs of OCD in children and teenagers from developing further * The important role of guided imagery in treatment and why it improves success rates * How to separate the person from their OCD * ‘Pure O’ – we look at ‘purely obsessional’ OCD, where people experience distressing intrusive thoughts without any external signs of compulsions * The chance to observe effective therapy for OCD and discuss case studies * How obsessive compulsive disorder fits with other psychological conditions – and with autism * What to do when OCD symptoms are firmly entrenched * The opportunity to discuss some of your own cases with a highly knowledgeable tutor * How to handle challenging cases successfully and more… -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Course Programme The ‘Obsessive Compulsive Disorder – understanding OCD and how best to treat it’ online course starts at 9.15am and runs until 4.00pm.

Who says what's right for you? How aware are you of how much you actually drink each week? Is it more than you want it to be? Does it take the edge off your performance? Or do you just think it's time to change? This session will challenge the way you think about drink. It's not about what someone else thinks you ought to drink - it's about your own attitude to it. Take away a completely fresh way of thinking about drinking. Get some insights into 'how come' you drink what you do. Find out what you can easily do to drink less. During the session you will have the opportunity to take a fresh look at: * Your drinking habits - casual/social drinking, habitual drinking, binge drinking * 'How come I do this'? * How we think about habits * 'How could I change my drinking'?
