Your memory would improve by 50% if you could quiet the chatter inside your head…Allan Parker OAM
Hello everyone,
I thought to take this opportunity of drawing your attention to an unusual kind of event for here; to let you know that in the future I just may drop something in from time to time of a slightly different nature, or that you may perceive to be out-of-kilter to those events and workshops you’re used to seeing…and that I’ll flag them up front as a ‘Larry-Instigated-Event’!
Thanks to his longstanding career in Leadership, Larry has always been inclined to meet fascinating peeps (who inhabit a different realm to those I do, which in turn broadens my domestic horizons no end!). Since those dark times a few years ago when all of us were grounded (many of us are still navigating the fallout post that time) Larry’s exponential travel wings have been quite severely clipped (I can only say we’ve planted a good many trees here these last 36 years…and altogether put a great deal of effort into carbon sequestration, although I’m not sure we’ll ever balance out Larry’s air-miles spent…it’s just as well we put so much effort into making compost!).
The possibility of conducting his work-life primarily via Zoom these days, has curbed those years of incessant travel, which surely is good for the planet and good too, for his health. But he recognises that working partially (he’s still in Sydney on many days!) from Glenmore gives him the opportunity also, to extend an invitation here and there, to those peeps he admires and whom he believes have interesting insights to share: and he has a sneaking suspicion some of you may be interested too. (Part of me thinks the more events he can land in my calendar the more likely there is to be leftover cake to accompany his daily afternoon cuppa – no events, no cake!). And to be honest? I really am very happy to be in the background…and to do the cooking for such events…as and when they may occur.
There are unlikely to be too many…and up front I promise a ‘Larry Event Alert’! Don’t worry – I’ve no intention whatever of giving up my events and workshops…these will simply be in addition!
On this occasion, we are both delighted to invite you to spend a day with ALLAN PARKER OAM, as he kicks off his regional BRAIN RESET TOUR. Allan is a micro behavioural neuroscientist, whose first book, Switch on your Brain has been a best seller since its publication in 1986.
Allan’s workshops delve into the neural pathways that govern our thoughts and behaviours, offering tools for a Calming Brain Reset (CBR) and he’s embarking on a journey to bring insights, techniques and compassionate guidance to communities and individuals throughout the heart of regional Australia.
At this all-day workshop, Allan will discuss his Five Steps to a Brain Reset, Managing Pressure & Tension, Understanding the Brain, Calming Conversations, The Facts & Myths of Brain Food & Exercise. His workshop is designed for anyone who wishes to improve their mental and emotional wellbeing, learn practical tools for managing stress and adopting a healthier lifestyle…whether experiencing anxiety, stress, or if you’re simply interested in enhancing your thinking.
Larry has known Allan for a good many years, and these are the areas that cross-pollinate Larry’s world.
You’ll need brain food, so as always I’ll be preparing a delicious, garden-inspired seasonal lunch! In this instance, the booking form is on Allan’s website…which you can reach via the link here. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to wing off a message to me.
Allan, Larry and I will very much look forward to welcoming you here for a very insightful brain reset!
Warm wishes
Mickey
