The neuroscience of movement

Lawsight Ltd are a team of psychotherapists with a background in the legal profession. In this workshop they will look beyond the obvious benefits of being active and take a deeper dive into the field of neuroscience to show the interconnectedness of our mind and body and how moving with awareness is a key resource for supporting our physical and mental health.

The session will cover:

  • Findings from neuroscience that highlight the role of our nervous system in how we experience and respond to stress and other difficulties.
  • How to develop an awareness of how we move and understand our body’s signals (the sense of ‘interoception’) to help us manage our emotional and physical states.
  • Recognising the challenges and competing priorities we each have that can mean it’s not that easy to do even if the benefits of being active seem obvious.
  • Strategies for how to move with awareness in our daily lives as a resource for managing stress and other difficulties.

 What you will take away from the session?

  • An appreciation of the interconnectedness of the mind and body when it comes to our mental health.
  • Understand how to read and interpret your body sensations (the sense of interoception) and why this has important consequences for your wellbeing
  • Practical strategies for developing an awareness of how you move and identifying different types of movement to help manage stress and other challenges in your daily lives.
