On May 20 there will be a long-awaited lecture by the well-known science journalist and 'Prosveshchitel' prize winner Asya Kazantseva! In recent years uncertainty has surged and our dopamine and cortisol systems are overworked. Why in hard times do we so desperately crave hugs, support and that childhood sense of safety? The lecture will cover: 🔹Neurobiology of stress: What happens in the brain when the world falls apart. 🔹Evolution of attachment: Why social bonds for Homo sapiens are not a luxury but a survival mechanism. 🔹The oxytocin shield: How physical contact and quality communication help reduce inflammation in the body and restore cognitive abilities. Asya will explain how to use knowledge about brain function to avoid 'breaking down', support yourself and loved ones, and why the phrase "I need to be held" can be the most sensible strategy in confusing times. 📅 20.5 at 19:00 📍 Event Ship Wäiski 🎙 Lecture, Q&A, autographs 🎟 Buy tickets (https://fienta.com/pick-me-up-20052026?utm_campaign=katja)
