Behaviors (DISC) - "How" you do things
Measured in four proportions (Dominance, Influence, Steadiness and Compliance), Behaviors/(DISC) reveal how an individual will perform, including how they prefer to communicate, what he or she will bring to a team, his or her ideal environment and possible limitations he or she may face.
Behavioral research suggests that the most effective people are those who understand themselves, both their strengths and weaknesses, so they can develop strategies to meet the demands of their environment.
The DISC assessment examines an individual's dominance, influence, steadiness and compliance, revealing the ways in which one responds to the following:
* Problems and Challenges
* Influencing Others
* Pace of Environment
* Rules and Procedures
Motivators or Driving Forces - "Why" you do things
Driving forces uncovers what motivates and engages an individual in work and in life. The 12 Driving Forces assessment reveals why people do what they do and what impacts their decision making. The assessment examines the relative prominence of the following:
* Instinctive/Intellectual (Knowledge)
* Selfless/Resourceful (Utility)
* Objective/Harmonious (Surroundings)
* Intentional/Altruistic (Others)
* Collaborative/Commanding (Power)
* Receptive/Structured (Methodologies)
HeartMath
To recognize when you are functioning in "stress mode" and make a conscious shift; enhance your ability to make clear decisions; connect to your "heart path" and tap into your internal wisdom for your highest purpose and connect the Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual domains for enhanced flexibility in all domains. Greater endurance and strength in the physical domain. Longer attention span and ability to focus in the mental domain. Positive outlook and self-regulation in the emotional domain. Commitment to values and tolerance in the spiritual domain. Where all those domains overlap is Coherence and when you are functioning at your optimum.
Using the Inner Balance trainer you will receive real time biofeedback of your current state and learn techniques to shift to your optimal state of coherence.
HeartMath tools are intended to be used "on the fly" so know one will even know you are making an internal shift!

What Participants are Saying.....
DISC Sessions
"There are actual names for the different behavioral styles and knowing how to adapt."
"If you feel like you can't quite communicate with someone, there may be a reason behind it. I am not just blaming myself now."
HeartMath Sessions
"This really helped me learn to share a more positive vibe outward, instead of just taking on a negative feeling from other people."
"I liked learning how to calm the other people and animals around me with just learning to regulate myself."
Infinite Possibilities Sessions
"In order to get the life you want, you have to change your mindset and see yourself with what you want and how you want to live."
"I keep a much more open mind about everything and what I want in life and how to go after it."
Horse Painting
"This was the most meaningful and emotional exercise. I did not know the horse could show me so much about myself when I was willing to open and partner with her."
"Working with the horse in this way was such an eye opener. I learned so much about myself and my beliefs both good and bad."
