ONLINE Positive Neuroplasticity Training

Positive Neuroplasticity  Training, developed by Dr Rick Hanson, uses the latest developments in neuroscience and psychology to rewire and hardwire feelings such as happiness, being content and feeling connected.  In this 18 hour training you will develop many important inner strengths, including ones aimed at particular challenges you may be facing.  Alongside this, you will also learn how to transform beneficial states of mind into underlying, enduring neural structures. This is useful for every day well being as well as turbulent times.

Positive Neuroplasticity Training has been designed by Dr Rick Hanson, a world leader in resilience and accompanies his best seller book ‘hardwiring happiness’.   The course is even backed by a peer reviewed scientifically researched paper showing positive outcomes in mental health.  Click here to read more ...

Positive Neuroplasticity Training is about:

• Learning "how to" grow lasting inner resources such as confidence, happiness, grit, feeling content, safe and connected.
• Understanding "how to" improve your mental health by learning how to take in the good and install it as an inner strength.
• Identifying and applying these strategies to key resources you are personally wanting to develop.
• Moving forward, growing resilience and healing past hurts.

The 18 hour PNT course consists of 6 sessions, 3 hours each. There is a combination of presentation, paired exercise and inner practices.   Click here for a more detailed overview of the sessions.
