Keynote / Workshop -  for Career Development Professionals

---

Are you looking for new and creative ways of working with your students? Have you noticed the rise of, as Time magazine puts it, “The Mindful Revolution”? During this presentation participants will have the chance to practice with some new tools on yourself, and learn mindfulness-based and creative techniques to use during your co-op and career advising sessions.

Tools and Topics will include:

• Bulls Eye Exercise – An insightful and comprehensive tool for co-op and job decision making, especially helpful for when you are torn between two options.
• Visualization Exercises – Pro athletes use visualization techniques to imagine their performance in a game or event, before it happens. Interview candidates can tap this valuable technique too! 
• Face Your Fear, Free Your Energy (in the Job or Co-op Search) – Explore your worst case scenario and face those fears, as a means to getting unstuck and freeing up that energy that is being wasted on worry. Details here.
• The Power of Positive Thinking– Gratitude journals, affirmations and setting intentions can help when you are feeling a lack of hope, or just want a powerful boost for your job/internship search.
