SESSION TOPICS:

 

Session 1:  Engineered for Success: The Addicted and Learning Brain. Addictions are about broken connections—in the brain, with each other, with life principles, and with God. A look at the big picture and the even bigger promises and plan.

 

Session 2:  Freedom Keys. It’s one thing to achieve freedom—it’s another to maintain it over time. Discover practical, powerful principles for getting and staying free. Be inspired by amazing success stories—against all odds.

 

Session 3:  Your External Environment: Lifestyle.  When it comes to building a better brain, body, and life, lifestyle matters.  Quick fixes and gimmicks will not heal a broken brain or help you win the battle against bad habits. Discover what works!

 

Session 4:  Your Internal Environment. Attitude, social networks, lifestyle, and spiritual renewal are woven together to create the mental mettle to confront obstacles. There is hope for the harried!

​

Session 5:  Connections and Situational Awareness. In your quest for freedom, situational awareness is key. We explore what it is, and how to strengthen it.

 

Session 6:  Habits that Last. It’s one thing to achieve a goal, it’s another to maintain it over time. Learn the difference between “outcome” versus “identity” based change. Tools for a new life that lasts!
