POWER PROGRAMMING YOUR BODIES EXERCISE AND WEIGHT LOSS COMPUTER In this 90-minute seminar, you’ll learn just how your mind affects your choices and will learn simple mental programming techniques that will have you jumping out of bed before your alarm even sounds. You’ll learn how to hold on to your motivation so that exercising will remain a life-long habit. You’ll learn how avoiding deserts and trimming-back on portions is actually quite easy to do. And best of all, you’ll learn why you’ll never need to diet again. Remember, IT’S ALL IN YOUR HEAD. 2. Stressed, Overweight, Scared: A whole new generation of kids Being a kid today is different than it used to be, and so is raising them. Ipods, play stations and instant messaging have replaced kick-the-can and tag as the activities of choice. Stress levels are through the roof. Food is everywhere; it’s convenient; it’s cheap and portion sizes are out of control. All of this is greatly affecting the mental and physical well being of our kids, and if we don’t do something about it now, our kids are going to be in big trouble later. In this 90-minute parent seminar, Dr. Kersting lays it all out there, challenging parents to make changes in their own lifestyle and to help their children do the same. Some of the things Dr. Kersting will cover include: * Why there is so much stress and pressure to perform * How technology has taken over our kids lives * A look at the food industry and the eating habits in America * Why more kids today are medicated than ever before * Drinking and Drugs: yes it’s part of the equation * Where do parents go from here? 3. Drinking and Drugs: What’s really happening out there? In this 90 minute parent seminar, Dr. Kersting gives parents an insider view of what’s really going on out there. As a school counselor and therapist, Dr. Kersting has seen and heard it all—directly from the kids. Bottom line—kids are much more involved in drinking and drugs than parents think and if you don’t believe it, then you better attend this seminar. In addition to the stories, statistics and experiences that he will share, Dr. Kersting will also teach parents affective strategies for keeping their kids on the straight and narrow. 4. Character and Ethics: Where have you gone? What is character? Well, let’s start by asking our children. Parents, times have changed. Think back to when you were a kid. A phone call home from the school was sure to bring serious consequences at home. If you used inappropriate language in front of an adult you just might get your mouth washed-out with soap. And getting caught cheating on a test was sure to get you grounded for the rest of your life. It’s not like that anymore folks. In this seminar, Dr. Kersting brings parents back to reality, back to good old-fashioned parenting, back to good-old fashioned character education. It is up to us to impart genuine values and integrity upon our children. It is up to us to hold them to a higher standard and to teach responsibility. If we don’t then we’re sending our children the wrong message. I repeat: We’re sending them the wrong message. |
