53rd NFPA Education Conference

Trainer: Mr. Nick Lawrence

Description:

Over time, our hormone levels get affected by many factors in our lives. Stress has the worst impact on us and can negatively impact four happiness hormones (Serotonin, Endorphins, Oxytocin and Dopamine) and one stress hormone (Cortisol).

The workshop focuses on the individual and their hormone levels. Each participant takes a hormone quiz which is based on “hormone deficit.” This means the quiz is based on scientific evidence from people who suffer various symptoms such as depression, anxiety, risky behaviors, etc. The higher the score, the bigger the deficit. The scores get graphed, so each person gets a “picture” of themselves and how well they are functioning. This is an eye-opening experience about the necessity for more consistent self-care.
