Module #1 - Lower Stress Immediately!
Participants will be taught a highly effective and easy-to-learn modality that immediately reduces stress called Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). EFT can be utilized in countless ways at the workplace, for example: preparing for a difficult meeting, reducing stress before a presentation, prior to cold calling, after an upsetting encounter at work. Another powerful way to use EFT is at the end of the workday to release workday frustrations. Because of its ability to restore balance, calm, clarity and focus, EFT is powerful 21st century tool for executives, managers, business owners as well as their employees.
Module #2 – Keep your engine (energy) humming!
Participants are taught a Five Minute Energy Routine to keep their energy level and energy reserves balanced, humming and replenished. Easily done on a break or during lunch hour, it’s a deeper, less superficial pick-me-up than caffeine, chocolate or nicotine. Individual parts of the Routine can also be used by individuals when feeling overloaded or overwhelmed or when thinking becomes unclear or confused. In addition to this Routine, Brady will teach some simple practices for grounding, calming, and centering. A simple and highly effective Brain Gym technique will also be taught.
Module #3 – Non-Violent Communication works!
Who wouldn’t want to come to work every day to a peaceful, harmonious workplace where conflict is easily resolved? We’ve all experienced how arguments, bad feelings, misunderstanding, miscommunication and gossip can chip away at the sense of well-being at work. This workshop teaches participants Non-Violent Communication -- an easy-to-learn method for communicating, listening to others, and making requests. It is a powerful skill to learn and will immediately begin to transform the individuals using it and involved with it and shift the climate at work.
Module #4 – Thinking stress leads to feeling stress
Who knows how many actual thoughts people have during a day (60,000?), but one thing we do know is that thoughts are actual things which impact one’s physiology and therefore have a powerful (often negative) impact on one’s health and stress-level. Brady will teach 1-2 techniques to your workforce to help them ease the ‘stories’ that are continuously running through their minds and causing strain and stress.

BUILDING A BETTER RELATIONSHIP
Most people think that when they find "the one" they can concentrate on the rest of their life: setting up a home, education, jobs, family, etc. They focus much of their attention on these details of their life and their relationship takes a back seat. This workshop aims to help participants move their relationship to center stage. It provides participants with some concrete ways and skills to improve their relationship, through a combination of teaching and exercises in a small group setting.
LIFE AFTER DIVORCE:
A SUPPORT & COACHING GROUP FOR DIVORCED WOMEN
Divorce rocks the very foundation of our being, and yet many of us survive it only to be surprised that the months after the legal divorce are shockingly difficult. It is almost always a confusing, stressful and chaotic time of life. This course will help each participant regroup and restore a sense of Self. It will also help each participant clarify the next steps in their lives.
SELF-CARE DURING THE HOLIDAYS:
A PRACTICAL WORKSHOP FOR DIVORCING WOMEN
While others eagerly anticipate the holidays, your world is collapsing around you with feelings of panic, fear, dread, and sadness. Divorcing is one of the most serious, life-altering events, so it is understandable and expected that the holiday season will increase your stress exponentially. This workshop will give you very real and powerful ways to navigate this holiday season.
LETTING GO OF ANGER
How much energy and time do you waste being angry? As many of you know, anger can be debilitating. It affects our health, including our hearts. It affects our relationships. It can also impair our ability to think and reason. The consequences of holding onto anger are enormous. This workshop will be a practical one, offering new approaches to releasing anger.
LIVING MORE DELIBERATELY
Many of us are living our lives with "agendas" and "shoulds" and "beliefs" which we collected from mothers, fathers, teachers, aunts, uncles, neighbors and the culture at large. A huge topic! This introductory workshop will help you begin to explore what is serving you now and what is not. This is part of a series of playful and yet focused mini-workshops designed to give each participant a taste of life coachingHow do adults learn and grow? Largely by default. We learn as we live our lives, by trial and error, and at times, the learning is slow and messy.
I have created a model called the Learning Group, consisting of 4 to 8 participants, as a low-stress, low-cost approach to adult learning—different from conventional learning from books, trainings, workshops, therapy, counseling. The approach is informal, experiential, practical and fun.
