Travel Back in Time to Learn About the Fight, Flight and Freeze Responses
Join us at Legend Land’s Time Machine to travel back to learn about the fight, flight and freeze or ‘survival mode’.
We can explore The Brain and meet Barry the Brainstem, Amy the Amygdala, Franki the Frontal Lobe and many more characters.
They will show us what happens when our brain goes into survival mode and the effect this has on our emotions, thinking and decision making, and sensory experience.
