Main stage - Plenary Room

10.00 – 11:00 Holding Your Nervous System

An hour-long light-hearted talk on how to hold your nervous system when everyone

around you is losing theirs. You will discover your own somatic responses to challenge

and change, avoid burnout, and deal with those people who get on your... nerves! You

will be taught how to regulate your nervous system and be balanced.

This session gives you practical ways to recognise and regulate those responses so

you can stay clear, steady and effective, even in challenging environments. Practical.

Grounded. And delivered with humour.

Speaker: Becky Walsh, Council Culture UK

Chair: Helen Bradley, Chair of Association of Monitoring Officers
