Medical Specialists, Therapists and other Practitioners have always practiced with an element of ‘instinct’. The current western model of care, that is heavily focused on evidence based protocols and guidelines, has transformed and moved us away from this underlying instinct.
A panel of experts in their field will explore our current neurobiological understanding of what ‘gut instinct’ is and it’s importance in our work as well as our day to day lives. We will also explore strategies and techniques to help us better engage with our ‘gut instinct’.

 

Learning Objectives

1. Explore the neurobiological evidence of ‘gut instinct’

2. Explore individual understanding of current knowledge

3. Explore techniques of engaging and connecting with our gut instinct
