KEYNOTE -

As a certified hypnotherapist and cognitive behavior therapist, I understand how stress causes problems in both the workplace and at home. Everyday, I talk to people who are emotionally and physically drained due to the pressures that life brings.

Emotions like fear, anxiety, anger and resentment account for 80% of all stress. In fact, studies have shown that problems fall into three categories:

1.    TOXIC THINKING: A poor or negative attitude and chronic complaining cause anger and frustration which in turn leads to a toxic work environment and increased stress.

 2.   PERSONAL & BUSINESS PRESSURES: Deadlines, personal crises, time and money problems cause anxiety and
      depression which in turn leads to increased mistakes, absenteeism and ultimately stress.

3.   POOR COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS: Not listening and improper handling of employee situations cause resentment, anger, employee apathy, disgruntlement and yes, even more stress.

 In my practice, I help people to cope with stress in the following ways: 1) showing them a different way to think about life including how to recognize and correct irrational thoughts; 2) providing them with the tools to set and achieve realistic goals; and 3) creating an atmosphere of well being by balancing their personal and business lives.

My presentations focus on the individual and how to create a well balanced life so you don’t end up at the bottom of a black hole now knowing how you got there or even how to get back out. They empower people with the tools and skills to create a wonderful and fulfilling life. You will leave revitalized and ready to tackle anything life throws your way.

The following presentations range from one to two hours or half and full day workshops and address the root of life’s problems. Each seminar can stand alone or combine with others depending on the time available and your individual goals for the session. The most requested and most popular sessions all deal with stress and life balance and include the first five. All of these can be customizable to fit your particular objectives. Here are the available seminars:

Nine presentations available:

1) CONSCIOUS AWARENESS - (CHANGE YOUR THINKING - CHANGE YOUR LIFE)

Even had an A-HA moment. You know, when that little voice in your head says...WOW, I never thought about life like that. It doesn't happen very often but when it does, it can change your life. From creating more happiness to eliminating problems, from understanding how our brains work to achieving our life goals, Gary takes his audience on an incredible journey of self discovery by examining the conscious mind and provides strategies that can make our lives better. Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you deal with it.

3) SUBCONSCIOUS PROGRAMMING - (THE POWER WITHIN - YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND)
Ever wonder why we sometimes manage to talk ourselves out of things. We don't trust our judgment and therefore either procrastinate or ask for advice. We get 5 different opinions and we are confused and don't know what to do so we do nothing. Our lives are a reflection of our beliefs. These beliefs - usually subconscious are the cumulative effects of life-long "programming." As a result of this past negative programming, we sometimes think and behave in self-defeating ways. This causes a conflict between our conscious desires and our subconscious beliefs. Imagine being able to change the beliefs that limit you into beliefs that support you... quickly and easily.. Learn how to reprogram the software of your mind so you can change the printout of your life. Gary helps us understand and recognize conscious pushback and provides strategies that help us turn procrastination into action.
