CPD Event title: Neuroscience
Brief Description Of Event:
We often say in our description of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy that it is “neuroscience based”. Here is your chance to find out a little more about how we can say that with confidence!
his full day CPD will cover all the information you need to answer the questions in the AHD neuroscience module as well as giving you a deeper understanding of how we can use this knowledge to benefit our client work.
Course Content
This CPD will cover:
- Overview of the brain and nervous system structure and function
- An introduction to brain imaging techniques
- The role of common neurotransmitters within the brain
- A more in-depth look at neuroplasticity as the basis of all change
- What exactly IS “emptying the bucket’?
- How stress impacts both the brain and body systems scubas immune function and hormonal systems
- How pain is generated and how we can modify this with SFH techniques
- The difference between trance and meditation
- The form and function of sleep and its importance in SFH
After this CPD you will be able to confidently discuss the role of stress in impacting our physical and mental health, and explain how SFH is an invaluable tool to moderate its effects.
You will have an updated knowledge of how neurotransmitters run our lives, and how we can use SFH to support clients in reducing medication such as painkillers and antidepressants (obviously with the client liaising with their GP on this).
You will be able to use this scientific information to explain how our SFH techniques work effectively with both clients and other healthcare professionals and take the next step toward integrating SFH into the accepted treatment landscape for mental and physical health problems.
The importance of Neuroscience is why this CPD is also an integral part of the Advanced Hypnotherapy Diploma course (AHD).
