Course Testimonials
One of the key element that I learned from this course was about the “Hotspots” for coaching and the Brain States. I really like the idea about having an imaginary dial that goes up and down based on which brain state one is in...learning about strategies to sweep clean my mind - notice, name, accept, experience, appreciate, connect, compassion, curiosity, learning, purpose, change of channel. This strategy will help me prepare for a coaching session by controlling the negative emotions and letting the positive emotions energize the brain. Sometimes at work I come across some very challenging clients this tool will help me organize my mind while talking to the client and also before I move on to talk to the next client.

I learned how to utilize meta awareness more often to sort of step outside my thinking and evaluate situations, especially during times that may be higher stress. I also learned how to actively "turn down" certain areas of my brain to become more aware of utilize certain states during specific circumstances in my life and with clients. I have Meg's voice stuck in my head, which she says "turn down" X state, when I'm envisioning that dial to turn it down.

I appreciate the topic of being intentional. Being intentional in life will assist in goal setting and I believe living life to the fullest.

I find myself thinking about which part of my brain I am using during many activities and am involved in throughout the day. It is knowledge I have never had before and it puts me more in touch with my overall self. I foresee that I can help my clients understand where they are imbalanced by spending spending too much time in a specific area of their brain versus others. For example, I anticipate most will spend too much time in the "Executive Control" center and not in the more liberating and creative parts of the brain.

My ability to develop a better understanding of my brain states has helped me be a more mindful individual, and schedule activities that promote my wellness vision during times I am most capable. As a coach with a better understanding of brain states, I am more able to understand the perspective of a coachee, and help them lead themselves into more opportunities for 'active mastery' and apply more executive control to their day.

I really enjoyed the section on physical energy classes. I learned more about the importance of exercising and how benefits the brain. I also started consuming more chia seeds because I want to have a healthy brain and I've been trying to take more breaks throughout the day.
