WOOP is a science-based mental strategy that people can use to find and fulfill their wishes, set preferences, and change their habits. WOOP has better research behind it than SMART goals and yet most people have never heard of WOOP. Kim Rice will help you learn how to use WOOP in this engaging and practical course. You’ll learn how the obstacles that we think most impede us from fulfilling our wishes can actually help us to realize them. WOOP instructs us to dream our future dreams but then to imagine what obstacles inside ourselves prevent us from achieving these dreams. In research studies, WOOP has helped people reduce stress and increase work engagement, find integrative solutions to problems, and improve time management. Children and adolescents using WOOP improved school attendance as well as effort and achievement in school. Registration for all class sessions closes 3 days before the start date.

You are familiar with your physical body – but what about your energy body? The human energy field is a complex system that is just as important as the physical body. Energy moves through us and around us all the time, and keeping it flowing freely is key to our well-being. Our energy systems can be disrupted by stress, trauma, and environmental factors like diet and pollutants. Congested energy can contribute to depression/anxiety as well as physical illness.
