Everyone has what it takes to become an effective leader, but first you must learn the skills needed to succeed in a position of responsibility. Our program will help people nurture the talent within and allow managers to lead confidently. Sometimes, working longer hours isn’t the right approach, as you risk burning out and abandoning the task at hand. Instead, effective leadership teaches you how to organise your workload, practice better time management and learn the power of delegation.

But thankfully it is possible to help most addicts transform their lives – often in only a few sessions – as you will discover on this practical day which draws together, from various schools of solution-focused therapy, the most effective and proven techniques for treating addictions (including motivational interviewing and self compassion techniques) with essential neuroscientific insights into the addictive process to create powerful interventions. You will leave the day with renewed confidence knowing how it is possible to help most people with addictions, enabling them to transform their lives, often in a small number of sessions. The skills covered are essential to have (along with guided imagery) if you wish to improve your effectiveness when helping people quit any addiction, including: alcohol addiction, smoking, gambling addiction, shopping, social media addiction, sex, substance abuse, self-harm and eating disorders. Please note You will leave this workshop with essential information and a variety of skills that you can implement straight away. However, the key concepts and most effective ways of treating addictions, which you will see demonstrated and explained, incorporate guided imagery skills.

Assessment and Planning: Survey the area where you want to install CCTV cameras. Identify key areas that need surveillance such as entry points, blind spots, and valuable assets. Determine the number of cameras needed and their types (e.g., dome, bullet, PTZ) based on the coverage required and environmental conditions. Plan the placement of cameras considering factors like lighting conditions, obstructions, and the angle of view required. Selecting Equipment: Choose high-quality CCTV cameras and other necessary equipment such as DVRs (Digital Video Recorders) or NVRs (Network Video Recorders), cables, connectors, power supplies, and storage devices. Ensure compatibility between cameras and recording devices. Consider features like resolution, night vision capability, and weather resistance. Mounting Cameras: Install cameras at the planned locations using appropriate mounting brackets or housings. Ensure cameras are securely fixed to prevent tampering or theft. Adjust the angle and direction of each camera to cover the desired area effectively. Running Cables: Plan the route for cables connecting cameras to the recording device. Use weatherproof cables suitable for outdoor installation. Conceal cables where possible to prevent tampering and maintain aesthetics. Connecting Components: Connect cameras to the DVR/NVR using appropriate cables and connectors. Ensure proper power supply to cameras and recording devices. Configure network settings if using an IP-based CCTV system for remote viewing. Configuring Settings: Access the DVR/NVR interface and configure settings such as recording schedule, motion detection, and video quality. Set up user accounts and passwords to restrict access to the system. Test the system to ensure cameras are capturing footage and recording properly. Remote Viewing (Optional): Set up remote viewing capabilities to access live or recorded footage from smartphones, tablets, or computers. Configure port forwarding on your router if accessing the system from outside the local network. Install and configure the necessary software or mobile apps provided by the CCTV system manufacturer. Testing and Maintenance: Test the system thoroughly to ensure all cameras are functioning correctly and recording as expected. Regularly check and clean cameras to maintain optimal performance. Update firmware and software periodically to patch security vulnerabilities and access new features.

The guided imagery and visualisation techniques you will learn on this workshop are essential for helping people successfully overcome depression, addictions, anxiety and more…. Accredited CPD Certificate : 6 hours Length 1 day (9.30am - 4.00pm) Why take this course This new workshop delves deeper into this essential therapeutic skill’s power and flexibility – you will learn a variety of guided imagery techniques that are highly effective at helping people move on from problem behaviours, reframe life circumstances, lower emotional arousal, make therapeutic lifestyle changes, increase resilience and more. Building on the skills learnt on Guided Imagery and Visualisation for therapeutic change (‘Day 1’), this second workshop focuses specifically on the techniques that allow clients to move forward from depression, overcome anxiety and combat addiction. We also look at how to introduce helpful new understandings to clients in a way that overcomes resistance. Strong emotions focus and lock attention keeping people trapped or stuck – so this hands-on training also gives you the opportunity to further develop your therapeutic abilities to help people rehearse in their imagination any desired change to their behaviours and/or feelings, which dramatically increases the likelihood of those changes taking place in ‘real life’, and then being maintained in the future. Guided imagery, as taught on Day 1 is one of the most powerful psychotherapeutic tools available to us; Day 2 will allow you to develop your ability to use it flexibly and successfully in a range of different client presentations. These are essential skills to have in your therapeutic ‘toolkit’. * Please Note: counter-conditioning was previously taught on our pre-2023 Stopping Addictions workshop. Ros has a lovely delivery style that’s very inspiring and left me with so many ideas going forward...MARY FLYNN, GUIDED IMAGERY AND VISUALISATION FOR THERAPEUTIC CHANGE What will you learn How to use the brain’s powerful internal ‘reality generator’ to enable clients to make desired change in their lives Invaluable ways to enable a client to approach situations with confidence and overcome situational anxiety Powerful ways of using this skill to help a client take the ‘first steps’ out of depression An effective technique (counter-conditioning*) which increases likelihood of success when working with clients struggling with addiction Understanding of how to use guided imagery effectively when supporting a client with behaviour change of any kind The use of metaphor within guided imagery; how to craft powerful extended metaphors which take into account a client’s individual model of reality Training and practice in using these techniques Greater confidence in working flexibly with this technique so as to respect each individual client’s model of reality Powerful ways to introduce helpful ideas to a resistant client without breaking rapport Supervised practice in specific techniques for work with a range of presentations How to use healing trance states to reframe difficult life circumstances and build hope using the client’s own resources Specific techniques that can be used to manage pain, or work with anxiety or any other strong state of distress Increased understanding of trance states and their role in everyday life A scientifically-sound knowledge of why the various techniques and skills you will gain are so valuable A range of ways to help people improve their performance – sports, public speaking etc. The opportunity to experience for yourself specific new techniques within guided imagery and visualisation Dates and venues Good to know To attend this course you need to have plenty of experience in using guided imagery and visualisation for relaxing clients or to have completed our Guided Imagery and visualisation for therapeutic change (Day 1) course. (If you are taking the HG Diploma, you will need to attend both days, as both count towards Part 1 of the Human Givens Diploma.) The additional skills you will learn on this second day are introduced on the following courses as integral to effective treatment for the conditions they cover: Stopping Addictions: effective treatment and recovery How to Lift Depression Overcoming Self-harm Please note: The counter-conditioning technique was previously taught on our ‘Stopping Addictions’ workshop.
