Topic: Make it UPTIMISTIC! Feeling Stressed? Need to know how to nip all the negatives in the bud? You are not alone. We all experience the negative effects of stress once in a while. In fact, almost half of Canadians report feeling really stressed - a few times a week or all the time! This can create an unpleasant work environment for you as an entrepreneur. What can you do? How can we make a shift to change our stress?

Take time out. Take action. Take care of you.

In less than an hour, this workshop provides a dynamic introduction to taking charge of your life. We will explore a deeper understanding of our opposite types and learn effective strategies to create positive change. It’s about you - making a commitment to create a healthier business and home life.

It’s a fast-paced session, where we take small steps that can lead to life-size changes! Uptimisticly, there are six strategies that are the foundation towards implementing stress solutions in your life.

Final Thought: from Nikole with LUV...

What We Focus on Expands

We are free to focus our attention wherever we wish. We can focus on all that we have, or we can obsess on what we don't have. We can focus on what we perceive to be problems, or we can remind ourselves that everything has a purpose and that every circumstance is an opportunity to reclaim our power...

When we choose to sustain our beliefs in lack and struggle, we support these beliefs with additional thoughts that are consistent with this way of seeing the world. The more we give our attention, or energy, to our beliefs in struggle, the more circumstances we attract to us that substantiate such beliefs.
