As a nonprofit, your mission is to make the world a better place. But even for the most important causes, this isn't easy.
Among your staff, there are personality clashes, stakeholder conflicts, and
Stress is very real, but the way we understand and deal with stress is based on mythology more than fact. The first thing we teach in our programs
is that stress doesn't come from what's going on in your life — it comes from your thoughts about what's going on in your life. Participants discover why stress is not a motivator, how the myth of "stressors" was born, and why stress management tools like exercise, relaxation, and breathing, though important, offer only temporary relief. Then they learn a new way to stop managing stress and start eliminating it at its source.
That leads us to a second topic — the key to mastering change...
Why do we fail at most of our attempts to change, from weight loss to relationships to staying sober? Aren't desire and will power enough?
In a word, no. As part of ActivInsight Academy training, participants explore a new framework to understand why change typically fails, why desire, will power, motivation, and positive thinking aren't enough, and how to fuel the engine of change that drives real transformation.
All Academy content is shared in a multimedia format that makes learning
enjoyable, with practical examples and engaging stories. (What does T. Rex have to do with this? We explain that too.)
Once your people have a new blueprint for stress and change, they're ready for the heart of the Academy: an eye-opening education in the Art of Insight...
Teach your people to have mind-clearing insights into any challenge
Insight is the birth of deeper understanding. It’s the a-ha moment, the sudden light bulb that fundamentally transforms your point of view. The only problem with insight is that it tends to happen passively, so we don’t know how to make it happen when we need it.
ActivInsight distills the essence of insight into seven simple steps. In the ActivInsight Academy, you'll learn where these steps came from, how to use them, and what makes them unique among transformational processes.
Then you'll be guided as you apply these seven steps to the challenges in your life, including money & success, relationships, health & disease, weight loss, diversity, work life balance, family conflict, politics, the economy, and much more. We can add content customized to your organization's needs.
In addition, you'll find forums where you can ask questions and share experiences, a members-only blog with tips and suggestions, and a community of intelligent people interested in exploring a smart new way to transform their lives. There's even an affiliate program you can use for development work.

The Academy is new, but ActivInsight has been around since 2004 helping thousands of people live with less stress:
