In this interactive and informative session, participants will:
- Understand the Science of Emotions
- Use the Optimal Health Pyramid as a Framework to Evaluate Health
- Learn the Funnel Theory of Fear
- Understand the Difference Between Values and Identity
Much time is spent on understanding our physical health and the role of disease. Less time is spent understanding our mental health and even fewer appreciate the role of our emotions on our overall, total health.
Using the Optimal Health Pyramid as a framework, participants will begin to understand the interconnectedness of our mental and emotional health. They will begin to see emotions differently, as clues instead of cumbersome stumbling blocks and how to use the tools of fears and values in order to guide our actions and behaviors.

Why Should You Attend
In today’s society, information is rich but wisdom is poor. In a quick google search you could figure out how to speak spanish, play the guitar or where the newest travel hot spots are. What is often not spoken about is the invisible force guiding you to make certain decisions, directing you towards certain actions and holding you back from certain opportunities. These invisible forces act like a tug of war, magnetizing you towards what you care about and value and pulling you actively away from your fears. In this presentation you will make sense of these invisible forces and in doing so, you will walk away with a better understanding of who you are and why you make the decisions you do.
