I’m coming at this topic from several different angles, both professionally (as a counsellor/coach), and personally (as someone who has ADHD and anxiety themselves, and also a wife, mother and fellow community member of people with the same or similar conditions!) I was so on board with everything you’ve said here, from a combination of past learning and personal experience, and it was incredibly useful to see it all collected in the same place. I really appreciate your presentation style as well; I attended one of your General Anxiety Disorder seminars a couple of years ago and it (along with the meditation sound file you provided afterwards) made a huge difference to the way I approach my own anxious thoughts and behaviours. Sharon S., Counsellor

Thank you for the opportunity to attend this event online. I learned a lot to support my practice and my son. Sharon T., Therapist

I found it fascinating - a good insight, interesting material and support techniques. Thank you. Esme H., Care Consultant

Excellent course with lots of useful information about ADHD and Anxiety and having both conditions together. Having completed an ADHD course before, this was in so much more detail and much more useful from a therapeutic point of view as well as a parent. Different techniques explained so well to help in the recovery of both conditions. Each section/session broken down and delivered in an easy to understand approach by Wale. Would definitely recommend this course to others. Lorna D., Counsellor and Parent of ADHD/Anxiety sufferer

If you feel this course can benefit you or any of your family members, friends or colleagues, why don't you let them know about the event and give it a try? 

Those who have attended the event in the past always said that they were glad they made the investment even though they were a little bit unsure at the start (See previous attendees feedback below).

All you need to do is to register your ticket to attend this event now.  The event is expected to be oversubscribed as there are very limited spaces. So book your seat now to avoid disappointment. Please only register if you are sure that you will be able to attend this event. We really want every ticket taken to be used on the day. Thank you for your co-operation.

The first reason this course is subsidised is networking. Relationships are very important. In a live event like this, there is ample opportunity to connect with like-minded people, share experiences, get motivated and discover what is working for others. I have been able to meet and connect with some amazing people in events such as this one.

The second reason why this is a subsidised event is the feedback that we get from our attendees. This is extremely useful. It helps us improve our courses and get better in serving others.

We practise authenticity because that is one of our highest values. MindBody Breakthrough does not use hard selling tactics because manipulation eventually leads to failures and stress at some point down the line. 

If you enjoy the day and think that any of our materials, online courses or future workshops can be beneficial to you personally or to your work, then we can discuss options once you have completed this full day. We just want you to come and enjoy the day, acquire additional helpful skills and make new friends.

Spot allocation is on a first-come-served basis due to limited availability. If you are planning to attend please reserve your spot now.

A certificate of attendance will be issued.

I look forward to seeing you there,

Best regards,
