About the event

The human ability to ‘think ahead’ means that we can anticipate problems, and it allows us to plan effectively. As ‘thinking ahead’ can help us to achieve our goals, it can be seen as adaptive. Worrying, however, can quickly turn into unhelpful ‘thinking ahead’. To worry means to think about problems that might happen in a way that leaves you feeling anxious or apprehensive. Worry is experienced as a chain of thoughts and images that can progress in increasingly catastrophic and unlikely directions. It is often experienced as uncontrollable and seems to take on a life of its own.

This practical workshop will share strategies to overcome stress and worry using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). It will give you tips on how to differentiate between helpful and unhelpful worries and how to tackle them.
