Stress overload is a root cause of mental health problems and chronic diseases, yet research has shown that cognitive methods fall short of switching off the stress response. In this presentation, emotional brain training founder and health psychologist Laurel Mellin, PhD, describes how processing emotions based on physiologic brain states can directly and rapidly switch off the stress response with technology that can be applied in public health programs.
At the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
1. Describe the neuroscience rationale for emotional brain training (EBT) for treating stress.
2. Identify the EBT emotional processing pattern for deactivating the stress response and its use in the FREE Spiral Up Lite app.
3. Describe the implications of innovation in stress resiliency for public health approaches to mental health problems and chronic disease.
