Wednesday, August 15, 7:30pm to 9:30pm
How would tomorrow be different if you knew that you could be in a state of relaxed focus, confident of your ability to access your best thinking? As you watch the Olympics, notice the athletes that are able to reach personal bests at exactly the right moment. They are the ones who know how to maintain the relaxed and ready state associated with peak performance in any complex activity.

Your life is full of complex activity: it requires all of your resourcefulness. You can't waste energy and confuse your thinking with too much stress. Invest an evening in building a better state in which to do what you need to do. You'll find you perform better, are more satisfied with yourself and your results, and maintain better relationships.  

This is one of my favourite short programs. If you're feeling summer-great, come and learn to hold that thought for a time you need it. If you're feeling summer-stressed, come and develop a better way to be. We're offering this one free of charge, so bring a friend. Wednesday, August 15, 7:30pm, 47 Queen's Park Cres. E.

Purpose, Presence and Priorities

Saturday/Sunday September 8 & 9, 10am to 5pm  

"He's just so charismatic."
"She has real drive. She always seems to know exactly where she's going."

We look at people of influence and marvel at their leadership abilities, their commitment and their drive. Did you ever wish you had just a little more of the qualities that define the most successful leaders in your life? NLP offers a way to think systematically about qualities that other people assume must be built into a person's DNA. Just as great actors are often actors who have learned to deal with stage fright, great leaders might have more in common with you than you think. Their "talents" can be earned through attention and practice.

In this two day course, Linda Ferguson and John Dafos will lead participants through a series of exercises designed to help you identify the times when you have already experienced being fully present and aware of a strong sense of direction. You'll not only understand yourself better: you will become more present and more aware of purpose as we work.  Balancing a heightened awareness with a mountaintop perspective, you will take definite, positive steps towards developing the presence and purpose that lead to a life well lived.

On day two, we'll use this new awareness to explore their practical applications in setting priorities and making the choices that make a difference. This course is strongly recommended for practitioners and master practitioners of NLP. We will be offering you a rare opportunity to move forward on the path to strengthening your personal integrity, leading others to reach individual and collective goals, and creating tangible, satisfying results. You will walk away refreshed, recharged and ready to achieve.

If you completed a Masters in 2011 or 2012, or if you are speaking at the HOPE symposium, this course is our gift to you. The cost for other practitioners and master practitioners is just $50 to cover materials and costs.  

If you're not NLP-trained by NLP Canada Training, you are also welcome to participate. Your cost is $250 which includes a $200 credit towards your practitioner or master practitioner certification.

Please email linda@nlpcanada.com or call 416-928-2394 to register. The course runs from 10:00am to 5:00pm on Saturday, September 8 and Sunday, September 9, at our regular location at 47 Queen's Park Cres. E.
