Presenter:
Estelle Brodeur, LLC
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get out of your chair during a coaching session and invite the client to physically do something different? This presentation will provide at least 3 new and familiar ways to engage the body and mind that promote positive emotions, clearer thinking, and new client-desired behaviors.
Whether you work by phone or in person, come experience simple and effective techniques to increase clients’ creativity, understanding, and motivation. We will practice breathing, movement around the room, and laughter, tools which often produce instantaneous shifts in perspective. Join us and play with these techniques which both decrease the stress response and build possibility and well-being.
Please bring your journal if you have one. We will provide time to reflect on learnings and new ways you’d like to utilize these tools, personally or professionally.
