Description

Stress and anxiety don’t just appear out of nowhere. Often learned in early life, these are strategies that the mind and body run on repeat whenever we feel overwhelmed or unsafe. Left unchecked, they can drive us toward burnout, disconnection, or addiction.


In this interactive session, change specialist Christopher Paul Jones invites you to rethink what anxiety really is: not a weakness but a learned pattern your brain runs when it’s trying to protect you. The problem? These patterns—often rooted in early life—don’t always know when to switch off.


Drawing on powerful tools from therapy, neuroscience, and his 7-step Integrated Change System™, Christopher will show you how to spot the hidden strategies behind stress, interrupt them in real-time, and gently rewire the beliefs that keep you stuck. You’ll learn quick, practical techniques to calm your nervous system, shift your perspective, and support yourself—or others—through moments of overwhelm. Whether you’re in recovery, supporting clients, or just trying to cope with the pressure of everyday life, you’ll leave with tools you can use immediately—and a new sense of what’s possible.


Educational Goal

Participants will deepen their clinical understanding of the neurological and emotional patterns underlying stress, anxiety, and addiction. Through hands-on engagement with the Integrated Change System™, attendees will enhance their therapeutic skillset with fast-acting tools to support clients in reducing overwhelm, re-patterning beliefs, and interrupting maladaptive coping strategies.

  • Describe how stress, anxiety, and addictive patterns are formed and reinforced in the brain and nervous system
