In this course, students will learn how to change their beliefs and thoughts into thoughts that help them succeed in life, emotional management, and growing from all life experiences. They will learn this through using tools such as positive affirmations, meditation, reframing and tuning into their inner compass. During each class, we will discuss and practice together with art, writing, and meditation. Learner progress is evaluated by effort, discussion and activities completed. Class #1: Learners will get to know each other, learn about their comfort zones and neural pathways, and will create intentions/goals for the next year. They will also learn about the subconscious mind and how their beliefs create their reality. Class #2: Learners will learn how to transform negative self-talk to positive self-talk, how to create positive affirmations and how to use mental rehearsal to obtain goals. Class #3: Learners will learn about their heart compass (intuition) and how to use it to make decisions. They will also learn a meditation technique. We will discuss and write about their emotions and learn tools to assist them in shifting out of intense emotions and to find emotional balance. They will also learn Heart Focused Breathing Technique created by HeartMath. Class #4 Learners will learn about the growth mindset, the benefits of gratitude, and Heart Lock-In Technique by HeartMath. They will also create a "Shine Your Light" poster board that involves them writing and drawing things they love about themselves and tools and techniques they will use to stay true to who they are with high self-confidence and emotional balance. ***The agenda of each class could change if I feel something needs to be added or changed as the class moves along.
