Year-Long Transformation Programme
Structure
1
12 months or 48 weeks to allow for Christmas, Easter and summer holidays
2
12 topics divided into 4 weeks
3
First 3 weeks training, 4th Q&As
Month 1 -Planning
We don’t start with a health topic; we’ll begin with planning to build the foundation for your life-long change. You’ll receive weekly 1-hour sessions teaching you the neuroscience of planning for the first 3 weeks followed by a 4th week of Q&As where we consolidate what you’ve learnt and answer questions.
Month 2 -Sleep
Sleep is the foundation for health, which is why it’s the first health topic. Find out why and what tools you can use to improve your quality of sleep.
Month 3 -Light
Light is one of the most underrated pillars of health. Here you will learn the benefits of light for health, mood and even light therapies.
Month 4-Motivation
One of the biggest stumbling blocks in achieving goals is lack of motivation. This is largely because motivation is misunderstood. Here we bust the myths and teach you how to master motivation.
Month 5-Exercise/Movement
A sedentary life is the new smoking. You will learn why and what types of exercises are appropriate for men and women. For example, strength training is more important for women than cardio, especially from midlife onwards, whereas cardio has greater benefits for men. The good news is it doesn’t have to be hard or unpleasant.
Month 6- Learning/Memory/Balance
Goals require learning a new skill. Here we will explore how learning and the “stress” of learning helps to keep our brain fit. At the halfway stage it’s important to understand why having a balance that’s right for you gives you the tools to succeed.
Month 7 -Nutrition
With so many diets and outdated information, we strip away fads. We go back to basics with the latest knowledge to understand why certain foods are either good or bad for us. Here we make the complex simple, so you can make the right choices that suit your life.
Month 8 Avoidance of Harmful Substances
While we delve into drugs and alcohol (it’s not all bad news) we also look at everyday products we can avoid that have an impact on our health.
Month 9 Tools for Success
To keep on track, we will look at many tools for success such as visualisation, meditation, hypnosis and growth mindset. All of these have been studied and shown to increase success rates as well as reduce chronic stress.
Month 10 Social Connection
Learn why social connection has such an impact on our health and wellbeing. We explore personality types and why numbers matter to some and not others, and more importantly, to you.
Month 11 Willpower & Belief
Like motivation, there are many myths around willpower. Find out what willpower really is and how to make the most of what we have. Also, learn the power of belief and how it can profoundly affect our success.
Month 12 Stress Management
Each session up to this point contributes to resilience and stress management as a foundation. Here we learn specifics: the autonomic system and how to switch from fight or flight to rest and digest. What therapies are available and what can we use from those methodologies in our everyday lives to build habits that boost resilience.
Each session will be recorded and uploaded to the community site for those who missed the session or want to rewatch. We understand that pressures may prevent attendance, though we do encourage coming to live events as you’ll get more out of them.
What happens when the year is over?
Health is for life. The programme lasts for a year to give you time to learn and build sustainable habits slowly. We understand life gets in the way, plus, having the right support and revisiting sessions is often needed to stay on the right path. That’s why we offer an alumni membership in which you can continue as a member but at a reduced rate.
From little acorns grow mighty oaks.
