-- Daniel Goldman (PhD Clinical Psychology)

Intro to Self-Mastery
In today’s social media dominated environment it is almost impossible to not end up comparing ourselves with others. This workshop introduces the concept of Self-Mastery and provides evidence-based strategies to focus on our own personal development.
Intro to Mindful EQ
Mindful EQ is an evidence-based training system designed to enhance emotional intelligence for college students. Mindful EQ synthesizes the latest research in neuroscience, mindfulness, and emotional intelligence to deliver an impactful training in an interactive and engaging manner. Below is a Meta-Analysis from the American Psychological Association investigating the connection between Emotional Intelligence and Academic Performance.
“What our meta-analysis shows is that EI skills are in fact associated with higher academic performance.”
The 8 Dimensions of Wellbeing
“People often think about wellness in terms of physical health — nutrition, exercise, weight management, etc., but it is so much more…. Wellness encompasses 8 mutually interdependent dimensions: physical, intellectual, emotional, social, existential, vocational, financial, and environmental. Attention must be given to all the dimensions, as neglect of any one over time will adversely affect the others, and ultimately one’s health, well-being, and quality of life (Stoewen 2017).”
Participants will learn more about each of the 8 Dimensions of Wellness as well as complete their own “wheel of life” to self-assess their own wellbeing. This workshop will also provide evidence-based strategies to help individuals build new habits and strategies to increase their wellbeing within each dimension.
