From Overwhelm to Creative Flow: Nervous System Support for Creatives

Over dit evenement

Ever notice how creativity flows easily sometimes, and at other times everything feels blocked or overwhelming?

Designed for the LWD Amsterdam community, this workshop offers a space to slow down, reconnect, and explore the relationship between stress, the body, and creativity. Through accessible theory, reflection, and simple somatic practices, you’ll learn how your nervous system responds to stress and how to support it in practical, embodied ways.

When we’re in survival mode (fight, flight, freeze), it becomes harder to access clarity, playfulness, and creative flow. This can show up as perfectionism, procrastination, creative blocks, or cycles of overwork and exhaustion.

Alongside practical tools and insights, this workshop also creates space for connection and shared experience, supporting a sense of belonging within the creative community.

✨What you’ll learn✨
• How stress impacts your creativity
• How to recognize your own fight, flight and freeze responses
• Simple tools to support nervous system regulation
• Ways to feel more grounded, clear, and expressive
