Self-care
is critical for the health and well being of any person living in a
21st century urban environment. It is important for all individuals to
care for their own mental and emotional health and well-being. A
positive mental attitude ensures a productive human being with an
exceptional quality of life. A Buddhist parallel asserts that
individuals need to care for themselves first in order to more
effectively engage with others, as healthy individuals are better
equipped to provide assistance in
professional
and social capacities. The aim of this workshop is to help enhance
participants' mental and emotional strength and resilience through
lessons of self-care. The workshop will employ
cognitive
behavioral technique, mind-body medicine, neuro-linguistic programming,
performance psychology, and mindfulness training. Imagery is the use
and integration of people's sense of experience in the world. In fact,
it is omnipresent in our everyday lives and thought processes, and the
activities in this workshop are designed to sharpen our natural
inclinations. Utilizing a frame of reference of how participants
experience the world, the workshop will include an integration of
senses
in a guided visualization. By gaining more heightened awareness of
thoughts, emotions, and ambitions, participants will learn to
selectively choose and create their own powerful verbal
cues,
which will then be used to guide their experience. Integrating imagery
encompasses mental skills foundations, building confidence, goal
setting, attention control, energy management, and
relaxation. Together, these skills help individuals enhance and become more congruent in their lives.
