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 stressDR 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 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.

Discover practical ways you can help using the core skills and concepts of human givens therapy – early intervention and ‘treating the whole person’ can be crucial… Accredited CPD: 6 hours Length: 1 day (9.30am - 4.00pm) Excellent trainer, very engaging, invaluable insights and knowledge This new course for HG therapists builds on the online Understanding Eating Difficulties introductory webinar. It will deepen your understanding of working with clients experiencing eating difficulties and give you practical guidance on the most appropriate ways to support them, whether they have an official diagnosis or not. You will leave the workshop with a much better understanding of how to apply the skills and concepts encompassed in human givens therapy in this area. Jo Baker has a wealth of experience in this area; she has previously worked as a volunteer for BEAT and other local eating disorder charities and helped people with eating difficulties in both private practice and university settings. NEXT DATE:  This course is part of our new range of recommended CPD for HG therapists. We don’t currently have another date for it, if you are interested in attending please register here so we can let you know when one becomes available. Why take this course The numbers of people experiencing eating difficulties are hitting an all time high – in the UK, 1.25 million people are estimated to have a diagnosable eating disorder¹ with hospital admissions more than doubling from 10,318 to 22,000 in the four years between 2016 and 2020². The early stages (or ‘subthreshold’ stages i.e. when symptoms do not meet full diagnostic criteria for an eating disorder as defined by the DSM-5 or the ICD-11) have been identified as a critical period for preventing progression of an eating disorder³. However, stigma directed towards those experiencing eating difficulties that aren’t believed to be ‘serious enough’ to warrant support⁴ can present a barrier to seeking help. With its deliberate use of non-clinical language Jo Baker’s new workshop for HG therapists considers all difficulties around eating worthy of help, understanding and support, irrespective of whether or not these difficulties have been diagnosed or meet the criteria for a diagnosable eating disorder. In this regard, the human givens approach takes a step forward towards early intervention, and treating the whole person. As well as having been a practising Human Givens therapist for 12 years, and teaching the HG Diploma, Jo has previously worked as a volunteer for BEAT and other local eating disorder charities and brings to the day a wealth of practical experience of working with eating difficulties both in private practice and in university settings. What will you learn The nuance of language – how to avoid causing unintentional distress The causes of most eating disorders and difficulties Creating space for the client’s story How to help your client identify and challenge destructive thought processes Therapeutic tools to get to the root of the problem – we look at which techniques can be useful, and what to be careful of The barriers created by clinical language and diagnostic criteria Diversity in eating difficulties – a greater understanding of the impact of cultural and contextual factors around eating How to help your client meet their needs and use their resources in a healthy way Eating difficulties and neurodiversity An increased awareness of complicating conditions – such as alcohol / substance abuse and medical conditions The important role of sleep in recovery Accessing resources and helping the individual to develop a nurturing self Ethical practice Understanding the boundaries of your role and your own limitations And more… Course Programme The ‘The Mind-Body Connection in depth: Movement, Emotion and Calm’ course starts at 9.30am and runs until 4.00pm.

I’ve been on previous suicide intervention courses over the years, but this is by far the best – great pace, very knowledgeable trainer...who brings real experience into the learning...SUE HASWELL Join Malcolm Hanson LIVE ONLINE on Tuesday 12th March for his essential suicide intervention training, delivered via Zoom. Book your place and we’ll send you the Zoom link the day before the event. BONUS Recording – the training is recorded, in case anyone experiences technical difficulties, so you also get a recording for a limited time afterwards to maximise your learning. Why take this suicide prevention course Suicide can be a difficult subject to broach and a daunting one to deal with – anyone working with distressed or depressed people wants to keep them safe, to give them the hope they need that circumstances can change for the better, and to provide the skills for coping until that comes about. When people can’t envisage an end to their difficulties, particularly in highly challenging times, a slump into depression can all too quickly spiral down into suicidal thoughts, plans and suicide attempts. The negative trance state of depression itself can beguile people into thinking that there is no other way out of their hopelessness. Thankfully, there is much we can do to help – as this indepth suicide intervention course shows. Tutor Malcolm Hanson has a wealth of experience at helping seriously distressed people get through difficulties which he draws upon as he takes you clearly through the steps to take when faced with anyone who feels suicidal. (He worked for 9 years as a psychotherapist in NHS primary care in an area of extreme deprivation, and for many more years since has seen patients referred by GPs, social workers, psychiatrists, police and probation officers for complex issues.) He has successfully helped clients experiencing multiple trauma (including veterans), chronic pain and terminal illness, clients struggling with uncertain asylum status or facing deportation, and also victims of human trafficking – a tragic range of circumstances in which even the most resilient may sometimes sink into despair. His compassion and understanding shine through this course as he shares with you what he has learnt, along with the latest psychiatric research and risk assessment strategies, to give you the knowledge and assurance you need to work confidently and respectfully with clients struggling to find reasons to stay alive. You will learn how to build in expectation of positive change from the start, have plenty of time to benefit from group discussions and will work through case scenarios with other attendees to help embed your learning. Suicide affects countless people, not only those directly involved, and is now the most common cause of death in men aged 17 to 34.
