Freedom from Old Behaviors
You can bypass (not break) old software programs
The brain is designed to create habits, internal software programs that typically remain in place as long as the neurons are alive. A natural brain phenomenon, habits provide a myriad of benefits for everyday living, unless they are taken hostage or run away with themselves. Humans often use habits to self-medicate their brain’s “chemical stew.” This helpful presentation offers strategies for altering undesirable habits. (1 contact hour of C.E. credit available)

Sensory Preference
A sense in time may save yours
Neuro-Linguistic Programming has helped to increase awareness about the power of the senses. Indeed, humans relate to each other and the world through three main sensory systems: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Unimpaired the brain can process all types of sensory data, although by age 5 or 6 it typically organizes toward a sensory preference. Do you know the type of sensory data that registers most quickly and intensely in your brain? This vital presentation includes strategies for identifying your own preference and for enhancing sensory communication. (1 contact hour of C.E. credit available)

An innate phenomenon often referred to as brain lead, it impacts life from communication to longevity. This stimulating presentation focuses on ways to identify and effectively utilize your brain’s uniqueness. Knowing your own brain lead can help you manage your energy by design, communicate more effectively with those who have a different “lead,” and enhance your overall success.
