Hypnotherapy distracts your conscious mind with relaxation so that you can discuss and come to an agreement with your subconscious min About this Event How can hypnotherapy help my fear, block or phobia? Hypnotherapy distracts your conscious mind with relaxation so that you can discuss and come to an agreement with your subconscious mind, the centre of all your feelings, habits, and memories, about how you can productively handle situations that would usually cause intense moments of stress or fear. This allows deeper thoughts and feelings to come to the surface, helping you locate and essentially become uninterested with memories of past experiences to make the positive and permanent changes you desire. By desensitizing old memories and habits–things you may not know are there, but that get in your way, that have emotionally blocked you for years–and creating positive responses and actions you can achieve permanent change. The conscious mind knows that there is no logical reason to be afraid of spiders, for example, but the subconscious mind has attached a fear to the spider, and the subconscious fear overrides it. Hypnotherapy can be a highly effective form of treatment for many mental, psychosomatic, and physical disorders. For […]

About this Event Workshop Objectives: Having a positive inner voice is essential in helping children cope with life stressors as well as having a positive worldview, which would consequently improve their self-esteem and social relationships as they develop into adults. Positive self-talk can also help shift children’s attributional style, which refers to the way they view the events that happen to them or are around them. Since attributional style has been largely established to link to depression, self-esteem, and relationship happiness, cultivating positive self-talk can help improve the way our children talk to and think about themselves, and change their attributional styles, leading to more mentally healthy children. Workshop Methodology: My Voice My Choice is a 1-day workshop aimed at shaping confident and strong children through the introduction of positive self-talk. This workshop is designed to teach children ways to identify their negative self-talks and turn them around and also allow them to learn how to recognise their strengths and improve their weaknesses. Workshop Details: For Ages: 9-12 years old Dates: 16 March 2020 (Monday) Time: […]

About this Event “Am I a keyboard warrior?” “Is it enough to just like and repost?” “What do I have to do to be considered a legit activist?” “What platforms do I have and how can I use them for advocacy?” The past year was fraught with environmental, social and political change around the world. Issues such as sexual voyeurism, climate change, “dissident” education and POFMA have made headlines in our local news. Nevertheless, young people have been taking matters into their own hands, passionately speaking up about injustice in the hope of righting the wrongs of previous generations. Young activists are more important now than ever before. In Singapore, where typical activist activities such as protests and public criticism can be considered illegal, it may be intimidating getting involved in civil society. But we can help you get started. This International Women’s Day, join us for an honest conversation with three young feminists doing activism work. Whether through storytelling, community building, or art and writing, these women challenge conventional notions of what activism looks like. Spend the evening in invigorating conversation […]

Hypnotherapy distracts your conscious mind with relaxation so that you can discuss and come to an agreement with your subconscious mind About this Event How can hypnotherapy help my fear, block or phobia? Hypnotherapy distracts your conscious mind with relaxation so that you can discuss and come to an agreement with your subconscious mind, the centre of all your feelings, habits, and memories, about how you can productively handle situations that would usually cause intense moments of stress or fear. This allows deeper thoughts and feelings to come to the surface, helping you locate and essentially become uninterested with memories of past experiences to make the positive and permanent changes you desire. By desensitizing old memories and habits–things you may not know are there, but that get in your way, that have emotionally blocked you for years–and creating positive responses and actions you can achieve permanent change. The conscious mind knows that there is no logical reason to be afraid of spiders, for example, but the subconscious mind has attached a fear to the spider, and the subconscious fear overrides it. Hypnotherapy can be a highly effective form of treatment for many mental, psychosomatic, and physical disorders. For […]

The end of this challenging year is the best time to reframe our perspectives on how we can provide a loving connected presence to ourselves, and others, with equanimity. Step away from the whirl of daily commotion this December, to experience relaxed days and peaceful moments amidst lush greens. Here, we get to free our hearts in a safe and grounding space to understand our own imperfections and explore a new, healthier way of relating to ourselves. During this 3-day retreat, learn effective tools and techniques to support our own growth through increasing self-insight and self-acceptance – closing the year with a heightened sense of gratitude. Together, we will embrace the new year with new-found optimism, habits, and feelings of connectedness to the self and common humanity. Sessions are led by Amerie Baeg, an experienced senior psychologist (www.illuminate-psych.com), and Wendy Chan, Founder of Yoga Seeds.
