SUMMARY:WATCH BACK: HPCA "Change Under Pressure Programme" Webinar - Neuroscience & A Positive Mindset
DESCRIPTION:This session with David Bovis looks at what happens in the brain when change is not chosen but imposed. David explains why feelings of uncertainty\, loss of control\, and threat are completely normal responses at the neurological level\, and how understanding these mechanisms can help us regain clarity and stability. \nParticipants will be guided through the neuroscience of stress\, fear\, and identity disruption\, and shown simple\, practical ways to support themselves through challenging transitions with confidence and compassion. \nThis session is particularly relevant for NHS colleagues facing job insecurity\, role changes\, or organisational turbulence. It will help people who: \n\nFeel anxious\, overwhelmed\, or disconnected due to uncertainty.\nAre struggling with motivation or confidence during this period.\nWant to understand why their thoughts and emotions feel different right now.\nNeed ways to maintain wellbeing\, focus\, and balance while navigating imposed change.\nAre looking for evidence-based guidance that complements the narrative from earlier sessions in the HPCA series\n\nAttendees will gain reassurance that their responses are not personal failings but predictable neurological patterns\, and they will learn how to work with their brain rather than against it. \nParticipants will leave with: \n\nAn understanding of the brain’s threat-response systems and why imposed change feels destabilising.\nInsight into why uncertainty amplifies self-doubt and negative internal narratives.\nPractical tools for calming the nervous system and regaining a sense of agency\, even when circumstances cannot be controlled.\nTechniques for reframing unhelpful stories and anchoring attention in more constructive patterns\, supporting the themes introduced by the previous presenters.\nSimple BTFA principles they can apply immediately to improve clarity\, decision making\, and emotional balance.\n\nThis will be a reassuring and empowering session designed to help NHS colleagues protect their wellbeing and sense of self during a very difficult period of transition. \nMake sure you subscribe to HPCA\, it’s free & you will receive our monthly update email & also an email about your local regional network meeting. \nWATCH BACK HERE
