This film is from the series The Brain Lab available on BBC Teach.

The film talks about what happens in our brains when we feel strong emotions such as anxiety, fear and anger.

Clinical psychologist Dr Hazel Harrison uses an analogy of the brain being like a house, with different types of people living on each floor, to explain what is happening in our brains when we feel strong emotions.

Through animation, we see what happens in our brains when these emotions take over and we ‘flip our lids’.

She talks us through how we can carry out some practical exercises to help ‘get our lids back on’ so that we can connect with our thinking brain and make sensible decisions.

‘Flipping the lid’ is a concept based on the work of Dr Dan Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson.
