Train-The-Trainer 1 Day Training in Livingston
We invite you to a sacred ciorcal art workshop inspired by the monuments of Edinburgh to celebrate 900years. From the famous to the hidden, we will explore the city’s architectural landscape and creatively express its beauty and unique features through mandala painting. The teacher Rachael will open the workshop with a guided meditation, which will include questions to help you explore your relationship with both the well-known and lesser-known parts of the city. We will then research what feels significant to you, from patterns to styles. You’ll have the opportunity to start forming ideas for your mandala. There are many directions you can take in creating your piece—for example, you might draw inspiration from the city’s Gothic architecture as a whole, or focus on specific sculptures at St. Giles’ Cathedral. You may pay particular attention to the symbolically placed flags or the animals scattered throughout the city (e.g., Greyfriars Bobby). The teacher will encourage you to seek inspiration from books in the room, as well as from your own experience, to curate your unique relationship with Edinburgh’s heritage. This could be depicted through spirals, patterns, lines, shapes and textures. The majority of the class will be spent creating mandala-style paintings that are rich in meaning and connected to Edinburgh’s heritage. Materials will be provided, including paints, canvas pads, pens, and pencils. The workshop will close by gathering in a circle, where everyone will be invited to share what they have created and reflect on what resonates with them about the city.

Be realistic! Be practical! Ever had someone throw those words at you when you're sharing your biggest dreams? Yeah, we've all been there. The thing is, other people's words and actions can seriously mess with your creative visualization power – they basically clip your manifestation wings and hold you back from what you really want. Once that seed of doubt gets planted, insecurity and fear don't just grow – they become these massive forests that feel impossible to navigate. But here's what we're gonna do about it. Through some deep meditation work, you're gonna release all that stress and those blocks from your past months. You'll start feeling how your feet on the ground can actually be amazing support – not for staying small, but for planting your roots and feeling truly grounded in your power. Your ability to create the life you want comes down to one thing: believing before you can see. It's literally the opposite of "seeing is believing" – and that's where the magic happens. So yeah, I'm gonna ask you to close your eyes and dive into a guided creative visualization of your dreams. This is creation at its most raw and beautiful: when you learn to use your mind to create "something" from "nothing," you can literally achieve and manifest anything. You'll discover how to use your inner compass and understand that every single manifestation is up to you. No one else – just you. And then comes the Making Time – the creative part where you'll craft your beautiful Dream Catcher. We'll explore the origins of this Native American ritual and you'll see how this spiritual tool represents your life through its sacred circle. Making something with your hands is gonna show you that transformation isn't some mysterious thing – it's literally accessible in the palms of your hands. Ready to make your dreams bloom?

The Sales Accelerator programme is a fresh approach to improving business development productivity. It focuses on identifying and using a series of business productivity metrics in order to build a clear action plan for improving sales results - typically within 90 days. The metrics are grouped under three headings: The basic principle is that a small improvement in each area can lead to a significant increase in sales results and productivity. And the object of the programme is to show how best to achieve that. The programme therefore looks at each of these three areas in turn, spending a day on each. Suitable for any and all businesses and all levels of experience and expertise, this is a remarkably practical and hands-on programme. During the workshop, participants discuss, review and apply many proven sales and marketing techniques and personal selling ideas. The goal is to generate and commit to changes and actions that can lead to a 10-30% increase in the next three to six months. There's also a consultancy option, rather than the workshop-based programme. See below for details. Day one - Activity Key objective This first module introduces the Sales Accelerator model.
