Bio

I'm an Emotional Resilience trainer/coach, and former Master Resilience Trainer for the U.S. Army. I show clients a powerful, neuroscience-based approach to stress reduction that's astonishingly effective! But a reduction in felt stress is just the beginning; used over time, the same protocol lowers cortisol levels, and has been shown to "switch on" genes that improve immune function. I've found no faster way to build Self-Awareness, the fundamental emotional skill.

The Stress First Aid Routine

A one-hour offering in which we discuss the problem of chronic stress in our society, and also examine some evidence from neuroscience/psychology research pointing to powerful relief from stress by using "tapping". Tapping accupressure points shuts down the stress response almost immediately, and clients will experience it in real time by following instructions. The mind and body calm, creating space for improved overall function. This is the first of *three* levels of benefit; the third one is astounding. [I recommend that team leaders experience this first; you'll "get it!".] Listeners will also be invited to a free "tapping circle" via Zoom in which they'll learn more about these life-changing techniques.

Stress Management 101

Similar to "The Stress First Aid Routine", but with more focus on science. Clients learn how the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems work in opposition to keep us "balanced"; they also learn how each affects human physiology. Most importantly, they learn how *staying* in the aroused SNS state has very negative health outcomes. Focus then pivots to "tapping", a somatic method to reduce felt stress almost immediately; clients experience this in real time. They have an opportunity to join a free "tapping circle" (via Zoom) in which they'll learn more of its benefits, one of which is quite astonishing in effect.

I recommend that team leaders experience this prior to podcast/presentation. You'll be as surprised as I've been; it's powerful.
