The Four Thoughts That F*ck You Up... And How To Fix Them
How to Cope with Almost Anything with Hypnotherapy: Simple Ideas to Enhance Your Wellbeing & Resilience
Daniel Fryer's official speaking topics are listed below:
The Four Thoughts that Fuck You Up and How to Fix Them:
Meet Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT); a form of psychotherapy, a coaching modality (think life coaching, business coaching, and more) and a School of Thought all in one. Find out how to adopt its core principles and live a more productive life.
Resilience: How to Cope with Almost Anything:
Life. If it’s not one thing, then it’s another. And, if it’s not that, then it’s everything all at once. We need all the help we can get. And here is where you will get it. Think of wellbeing and resilience in the face of adversity, courtesy of a variety of tools and techniques.
Men and Mental Health:
Once a year men get a mental health day named after them and, if they’re lucky, they get a whole week. But, looking after your mental health is a 24/7 thing. Thankfully, it’s easier than it sounds and not as wishy washy as you think.
Workplace Wellbeing:
Top tips, tools, and takeaways to help make your work environment way more happy and far less toxic than it currently is.
Green and Blue are Good for You:
Biophilia is an important thing, not just for people but, also, in office development. Ecotherapy is essential to your mental health and wellbeing, and a great boost to productivity in any work environment. And it doesn’t necessarily mean lunchbreaks in a forest (although it can), as brining nature into the workplace can work wonders.
Chronic Stress and Burnout Syndrome:
What they look like, how they affect you, what the difference between the two actually is, how you head it off at the pass and, perhaps, more importantly, how do you handle it if you have it?
Animals in the Workplace:
Daniel accidentally turned his beloved Lara, a rescue from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, into a semi famous therapy dog, with a pretty extensive media portfolio all of her own. She worked alongside him for eight years and not only provided comfort and support but also reduced stress and increased productivity. Find out what pets in the office could do for you.
