one hour seminars

1. mindfulness - enjoy mental toughness

• increase understanding about personal stressors
• know the impact of your mind on your behaviour
• how and why you need to cultivate self awareness

awareness of our own responses and reactions increases our ability to make conscious decisions rather than engaging in automatic responses

2. clear thinking – clear decision making

• gain a sense of meaning at work and in your personal life
• how to have clarity on a daily basis
• understand the link between personal values and happiness

contemporary research is considering how the values people hold relates to what people need in their lives to be happy and psychologically healthy

3. increase psychological engagement – banish boredom

• understand the cause of boredom
• understand what psychological engagement is
• understand how to become involved in your work and life

boredom does not need to be a part of your life - the cultivation of curiosity encourages you to be psychologically engaged at work and at home

4. giving up and letting go – understand the difference

• understand control and its relationship to mental health
• become aware of personal locus of control
• how to gain a sense of mastery in your life

when we understand what we have control over and what we have little control over we begin to gain clarity about how to make more effective decisions

5. emotional awareness – intelligence for optimum performance

• understand the link between thinking and emotions
• what happens when the rational mind becomes irrational
• how to choose your reaction

to have a broad repertoire of responses we need to understand the difference between the rational mind and the emotional mind and how to access the nexus of these two minds, which is the emotionally intelligent mind
