Ignite the spirit of success: changing attitudes, behaviours and outcomes
Amanda Gore

 

Negative behaviours, relationships and thought processes can affect how we live, and the way we feel about our lives. By harnessing our emotional intelligence to change our perceptions of various aspects of our lives, we can positively transform how we behave and feel.

In this interactive and laughter-filled presentation, Amanda explores specific strategies to improve two key areas of emotional intelligence – self knowledge and self management – in order to transform our thinking and attitude and feel good about ourselves.

Learn how dealing with change and acknowledging other people’s ways of doing things can help us become happier and more successful. Discover the importance of connection in leadership, sales, service and relationships and take away the inspiration to celebrate, motivate and encourage yourself and others.

The body in mind –
200 billion reasons to train your brain
Prof. Lorimer Moseley

 

Does the brain have a role to play in our quest to reach out to non-exercisers? Considering that we can do nothing with our bodies without our brains being involved, it can be reasoned that the role is huge. With its ability to perceive and respond to physical demands and constraints, and bodily movements and feelings, the brain can both hinder and help those who need to move more.

Additionally, a person’s experience of pain can affect their motivation to exercise. Calling on his 15 years of research, Lorimer delivers a fascinating insight into the role of the brain in pain, movement disorders and current concepts in rehabilitation to help you reach out and improve more clients’ lives. By learning how pain and brain science fit together, you’ll come away truly inspired to train the brain as well as the body.
