WayfinderWoman presents - Understanding and Managing Pain
2021-04-23 13:00 - 14:30 | Online Event
Interactive workshop is to help you understand pain, how our body/brain process pain, practical things you can do to reduce and manage pain.

About this Event

FREE WORKSHOP FROM WAYFINDERWOMAN TRUST
We know that when we’re in pain our confidence and self-belief drops. We find it more difficult to cope with simple tasks and obstacles that we would have brushed aside become insurmountable.
We know that if you have a positive attitude toward dealing with pain during injury you will recover more easily.
We know that even though the body has fully recovered for some you can still remain in pain. It is your feelings and how you interpret any existing or memories of pain that determines your response.
This interactive workshop is to help you understand pain:

How our body and brain process pain.
How our emotions and thinking affect pain.
How key health behaviours and pain affect each other.
Practical things you can do to reduce and manage pain.
Improve your ability to maintain a healthy mindset
Maintain your confidence and self-belief

Run by a woman and open to women only, this workshop is run by the esteemed Dr Caroline Marlow PhD, AFBPsS , a Performance and Wellbeing Psychologist. Helping organisations and individuals to thrive with evidence based research, mentoring & education. Director of L&M Consulting Ltd

Three amazing speakers talking to employers and employees about staying well at work as the pandemic continues to affect the economy.

About this Event

Sadly due to the pandemic we had to cancel our popular 2020 Work and Wellbeing Day with our exhibition hall, speaker hall and workshops but, never defeated, we have worked with three amazing speakers who would have spoken on the day and they are now taking their presentations online. Part of our drive to work with employers and this is open to men and women. Drop by and hear from the experts then engage with the Q&A. Meeting will start at 10.00am to allow time to sort out any technical gremlins for attendees.
As I’m sure you realise all charities are finding fundraising impossible so although this event is free we would gladly welcome any donation you may choose to make. This event is being supported by Freedom Leisure.
10.15-10.45 Victoria Regan – Rix & Kay Solicitor LLPLooking after Employee Mental Health & Wellbeing in the “new normal”
As businesses get back up and running, employers now need to consider what the “new normal” will look like for their business and workforce. Whilst some employees may now be back in the workplace, others maybe working from home or remain on furlough leave. All of whom will have been affected differently by Covid-19 and will all require different periods of time to adjust to the “new normal”. It is important for Employers to mindful of the physical and psychological impact that Covid-19 has had upon its employees and focus on the health, safety and wellbeing of its employees.
Victoria shall be considering the impact this pandemic has had upon employee health and wellbeing and the steps that can be taken to support the health, safety and wellbeing of the workforce.

11.15-11.45 Nicola McCarthy
Voices from the frontline
How can employers recognise and support employees wo are under stress and may be suffering from a breakdown? Why are employees reluctant to ‘open up’ to their line managers? Working as a Peer Support Coach with The Wellbeing Performance Company in Eastbourne, Nicola can give personal insights into the world of those who suffer with mental health issues and give employers valuable advice.

Practical Ways to help you be with others again
2020-08-19 10:30 - 12:00 | Zoom, Eastbourne, East Sussex, GB - United Kingdom, BN21 4RJ
As we are increasingly expected to return to normal life, many of us are anxious of going out, mixing and talking with other people, and of what to do should others make us feel unsafe or uncomfortable.
In this practical workshop, we will address some of the real questions and concerns that you have shared with WayfinderWoman. For example,
How do I stop feeling anxious of mixing with people again?
What do I do if someone comes too close without a mask?
How do I say what I want to without being muddled?
Together and in small groups, we will form a safe and supportive environment to explore ways to overcome these and other concerns: Of course if you wish to consider your concerns in private, that is also OK.
By the end, you will have developed your own plan of practical steps to help you feel more confident and safe about going out into the world again.
Run by Dr Caroline Marlow, Director of L&M Consulting Ltd.
Please log in a few minutes before 10.30am to the zoom session.
