When Stress Takes Over the Brain

When Stress Takes Over the Brain - free lecture: Monday 19 October 2026, 19:00–20:30, Hammelev-hallen, Hammelev. Admission is free.

On Monday, 19 October at 19:00-20:30, a free lecture will be held at Hammelev-hallen about stress, emotional release, pain relief and the path back to calm. The lecture "When Stress Takes Over the Brain" offers a down-to-earth introduction to why we can know the rational choice - and yet react with anxiety, racing thoughts, tension, irritation, fatigue or pain.

Drawing on Tapping and METAhealth, the lecture explores how stress affects the brain, body, nervous system, emotions and pain experience. Tapping is presented as a gentle method for working with the body's stress response and overwhelming emotions, while METAhealth connects the body's signals to stress, life events and emotional themes.

Throughout the lecture there are small reflections, examples and room for curiosity. The lecture is free and open to all.
