Happiness & Personal Development: It’s All About Beliefs – Option Institute

admin — Sun, 18 Jul 2010 04:39:27 +0000

http://www.option.org/happiness-hits — The Option Institute’s HAPPINESS HITS Video Series — Barry Neil Kaufman, best selling author of Happiness Is A Choice and Son-Rise: The Miracle Continues and the Co-Founder of The Option Institute, The Son-Rise Program®, and the Autism Treatment Center of America™ explores the idea that our personal beliefs are powerful in supporting or limiting our happiness and Personal Development. Whether dealing with life challenges such as the diagnosis of a child with autism, or cancer, or simply wanting to be happier and more confident, the beliefs we hold create the lens through which we perceive the world. Change your beliefs — change the world! The programs at The Option Institute and The Option Process® Dialogue will help you do just that.

Imagine being able to maintain an inner quiet and strength in the face of challenging and seemingly incomprehensible events. Not by hiding from them or ignoring them, but by facing them unflinchingly and with ease. In the Calm Amid Chaos Program you will develop a foundational system of interlocking beliefs that enable you to stand easy in the face of whatever the world throws at you.

“My life seemed so chaotic until I took the Calm Amid Chaos Program. Nothing about my life will ever be chaotic or seem random again. Everything in life is continually changing, so I won’t be resisting anymore but I will change with it instead … and love myself and the changes in the process. ”
~Murry Epple, Secretary/Treasurer, Canada

What you will learn in Calm Amid Chaos:
• No Nonsense: Shift your point of view so that everything actually makes sense — take in the world through a powerful perspective that lets you find meaning and beauty in seemingly senseless events
• Positive Bias: Uncover preconceptions that negatively bias your spin on life; replace them with perspectives that let you see light where you previously saw darkness
• Like a Rock: Forge a foundational system of beliefs that is unshakable in the face of adversity and challenge
• Practical & Personal: On top of this foundation, construct your own practical everyday philosophy that will take you wherever you want to go with your life
You’ll also learn the basics of The Option Process® Dialogue, an innovative technique to replace beliefs that have limited your happiness and enable you to live your life with clarity and ease.

The personal growth and development programs at The Option Institute are engaging, interactive and dynamic. We believe in experiential training versus conventional lectures and seminars. As a student, you are not an observer, but rather, an active learner and participant.

The Option Institute is a not-for-profit educational organization founded in 1983 by best-selling author (Happiness Is A Choice) Barry Neil Kaufman and Samahria Lyte Kaufman. Located on a pastoral 100-acre campus nestled in the beautiful Berkshires of western Massachusetts, our property offers trail hikes, waterfalls, wildlife, woodlands, elegant sunrises and breathtaking vistas.

Self Help and Being Your Own Best Expert

admin — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 06:51:11 +0000

http://www.option.org — The Option Institute’s HAPPINESS HITS Video Series.

Barry Neil Kaufman, best selling author of Happiness Is A Choice and Son-Rise: The Miracle Continues and the Co-Founder of The Option Institute, The Son-Rise Program®, and the Autism Treatment Center of America™ offers the idea that you can know and understand yourself deeply. In fact, he believes that you are your own best expert and if you want to you can access everything you want to know about yourself. We live in a society that worships the opinions of others. We look for our answers from experts, institutions, the media, and the people around us – everyone but ourselves. At The Option Institute, we believe that you possess all of your own answers to the personal issues that mark your life. We can teach you to access and rely upon your own internal insight. In this brief, clear, delightful video, Bears explains the value of bringing up your own knowing, your own wisdom and how to do it.

“The Optimal Self-Trust Program has opened my eyes and ears to the voice of trust which always lay within me. The experiential manner of teaching is groundbreaking, deep, moving and compassionate. This experience has led me to be larger and dream bigger!”
~Edward J. Yoerger, Oceanographer, Louisiana

Optimal Self Trust Program: Your inner voice can be a source of amazing strength, wisdom and guidance — but only if you hear it! Too often, our inner voice is drowned out by anxiety, self-doubt and fear. We arrive at decision-making moments — in our everyday lives, our relationships, our careers — and question our instincts and intuition. What if I go for that new job and don’t get hired? What will happen if my great new ideas completely fail? What if I leave him and then never find anyone else? Am I making a big mistake? Who am I kidding? What was I thinking?

Wouldn’t it be great to silence such questioning and replace it with the nurturing, confident inner voice that resides in us all? Optimal Self-Trust will crank up the volume of your inner voice letting you hear the wisdom it can offer. By liberating your inner voice and listening to its guidance, you can make better choices and live the life you want to live.

At the Optimal Self-Trust Program you’ll learn how to:
• Make Choices: That are true to what you want with absolute self-confidence — even in the face of opposition
• Listen to the Insights: That emerge when logic ends and “intuition” takes over
• Take a Leap of Faith: And let go — instead of crashing, you’ll discover you can fly
• Rewrite the Story of your Life: See the Successes you’ve never acknowledged
• Leave Behind Second Guessing: And the need for approval

You’ll also learn the basics of The Option Process® Dialogue, an innovative technique to replace beliefs that have limited your happiness and enable you to live your life with clarity and ease.
