Infographic illustrating the impact of stress on physical and mental health, healthy ways in which stress can be reduced and the power of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) or “Tapping” to provide a means for you to find a resourceful state that allows you to make healthy choices for long term benefits.
http://positivetranceformations.com.au/blog/some-more-eft-how-tos/ The crucial part of EFT, no matter why or when you use it – in a trance during a hypnosis session or during your waking state – is the tapping sequence and the positive affirmations. In this article, we’d like to give you more details about how to go about this.
One Disease – One Solution: How to add years to your life and life to your yearsJohn Mauremootoo
In this presentation, I introduce a framework for improving lifespans and healthspans. I outline why most people in the developed world are living longer but spending more of these additional years in chronic ill health. I then focus on the power of nutrition to prevent, arrest and reverse most chronic diseases as part of an integrated approach that addresses the Seven Pillars of a Healthy Lifestyle: Eating Naturally; Hydrating Properly; Sleeping Soundly; Breathing Effectively; Managing Psycho-Social Health; Moving Frequently; and Creating a Healthy Environment.
The Science of Weight Loss: Why Most Diets Fail & How to SucceedJohn Mauremootoo
In this presentation, I review weight management approaches that have shown success in high quality peer reviewed publications. I begin by listing the evidence filters I use to assess the science, briefly summarise the rising obesity epidemic, reveal the (underwhelming) secret of weight loss - spoiler alert: its calories in vs. calories out! However, the devil is in the detail and the remainder of the presentation unpacks this detail to provide information on the components of weight loss and how to manipulate these components to maximise success and long term well-being.

The benefits and challenges of using Outcome Harvesting to evaluate a short-term intervention are explored using the example of an 18 month social change project supported by the UK Department for International Development in Tanzania. The project was that was highly ambitious: it sought to influence changes in gender attitudes and behaviour of the general public in Tanzania. Challenges included the lack of outcome indications in project document and the lack of knowledge of outcomes among project personnel. Outcome Harvesting was adapted to allow the harvesting of outcomes using focus groups of those the project sought to influence directly. The concept of ‘proto-outcome’ was used for suggestions of attitude changes that may lead ultimately to behaviour changes. Substantiation of outcomes involved not only third parties but direct observation. The resulting descriptions of outcomes and the evaluation findings proved valuable for learning in the organisation, Search for Common Ground.
Image Manipulation and Organisation for BeginnersJohn Mauremootoo

A presentation divided into eight parts on the 'humble project management toolkit' - a set of tools which helps us to effectively manage projects in the face of uncertainty. In these presentations I describe the 'Planning Fallacy'- why projects always go over budget, over time, and fail to deliver to specification. I introduce two of the main causes of the Planning Fallacy: our cognitive biases or 'thinking errors' and complexity. I outline the 'humble project management toolkit,' describing some of the many approaches to project planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation that are stored in the toolkit's six 'compartments':
1. Hesitate to encourage reflection;
2. Understand the project's ecosystem;
3. Manage in alignment with the project's ecosystem;
4. Bring in diverse perspectives;
5. Learn constantly; and
6. Embrace uncertainty
Paper thickness to the diameter of the universe in 103 foldsJohn Mauremootoo
Exponential growth, increase at a constant rate, is a simple and powerful concept that describes phenomena such as economic growth, the spread of disease, growing computing power and the explosion in the use of the Internet. Yet the concept is sometimes difficult for people to grasp. I have found that this simple paper folding exercise to be a great way of introducing the concept to audiences of all levels.
