Lecture on Psychological resilience with Sara Isaković

Date of publication: 2.4.2023

Academy of Music UL, Lorenz Trio Hall, Kazina Palace, Kongresni trg 1

Are you familiar with the term psychological resilience? Do you want to know how to increase your performance, focus, motivation and self-confidence? Join Sara Isaković for a lecture on psychological resilience.

In this lecture she will introduce the topic in a relaxed way and leave us with the question: 'Do we realise that the difference between a winner and a loser is in our mind?' We will highlight the importance of the mind in everyday life and in coping with stress. We will discuss how mindfulness training triggers psychological resilience: how it activates emotional stability, self-control, focus, motivation and self-confidence, and how to start it.

You will learn:

  • How is our brain wired and why does stress overwhelm us so quickly?
  • What happens when the centre of awareness in the brain is activated? How does it affect brain function and our physical well-being?
  • How to start awareness training (awareness of breath, thoughts and emotions)

You are welcome to register and participate!
