When You Stress Less, You Live More...

We’ve all been there. Those moments when anxiety gets the better of us. When we feel a crippling lack of control and make bad decisions or choices. And, more often than not, we regret the end result.

In reality, we’re faced with these situations every single day. Stress is a natural and even necessary process. The key is learning to calm a stressful mind and become more resilient, resourceful and happier. It’s just part of the human condition. What we must learn to do is handle it in a positive way that keeps us calm and in complete control of our emotions.

How does it work?

In this remarkable and unique programme, you’ll find a collection of practical and holistic techniques to help you find calm in the chaos and change the way you respond to stressful situations. Emotional and physical tension can melt away.

You will learn a range of techniques, such as breathing, eye movements, TFT (tapping) and even some calming self-hypnosis, along with other valuable practices so that you can induce a state of calm whenever you want or need to.

You will leave the retreat feeling different, calmer and more in control, but, more than that, you will also leave with very real practical techniques that are yours to keep and use – for good.

Knowledge really is power and when you understand how things work and why you feel like you do, it makes it much easier to make the changes and feel the benefits of those changes.

Here’s just a taste of what you will learn:

Day 1 – Why we all need stress, not just as much. Understand the basic structure of stress and learn 5 quick and easy ways to change your emotional & physical state.

Day 2 – Whose listening? When you use your internal voice where does it come from? and how can you change it to be more calming and nurturing. Learn a range of practical techniques & enjoy a calming guided meditation.

Day 3 – Thoughts are things – they are a form of energy. Learn some simple energy techniques to change your mind and your body. Feel immediate benefits as your energy begins to change.
