All of us are familiar with the unsettling sensation of overwhelm. It’s as if there’s ever more to do, and ever less time in which to do it. The good news is, even if you can’t see it yet, there is a way out. Presenter of BBC Radio 4’s All in the Mind Claudia Hammond will help us to take the pressure off with a psychological toolkit that is both practical and evidence based. Addressing particular problems that can trap us into feeling overwhelmed, from procrastination to the fear of regret, imposter syndrome, perfectionism and a seemingly never-ending to-do list, Claudia offers science-backed solutions. Get the tools to take on everything life throws at you at Buxton International Festival.
