Successful people think differently. They have the ability to bounce back, persevere, and make things happen even in the face of adversity. In this innovative learning laboratory, we’ll be exposed to the burgeoning research in Positive Psychology, the science of success and happiness. We will discover how we’re genetically predisposed to negativity, and how switching this habit of thinking to something more positive takes intention, attention and effort. Come learn some scientifically informed strategies for how to build psychosocial muscle and in turn, get SO’MO of what you want in life (at home, work, and every place in between).

Focus the hidden driver of excellence- SummaryGMR Group
Daniel Goleman begins by explaining how we pay attention, how we focus and how we make fundamental decisions based on an overview of the anatomy of our brain. He explains the difference between “bottom up” thinking, where our more primitive brain (the amygdala) drives basic reactive thought and instinct based fast thought, such as what drives us (food, sex, emotion) and the slower “top down” thinking that emanates from our more advanced pre-frontal cortex or executive functioning brain. Critically to understand how these work one must also understand how they conflict and how they complement one another. Understanding the way the brain works helps us understand and influence whether we merely react or whether we control our thought.
The book then goes on to explore a somewhat eclectic selection of brain functions and attributes that form our thought processes. He explores how we perceive others, or “read” them; the role of empathy in our thinking; how we perceive patterns or fail to; how we act upon immediate threats but largely ignore distant threats; and how these thinking patterns help us to succeed and to fail.
He discusses how not the amount of practice but the quality of practice defines how proficient we are. He challenges the 10,000 hour myth, in which it is argued that a talent or skill is developed to proficiency with 10,000 hours of practice explaining that proficiency and mastery require quality practice for many hours.

APM Event hosted by the East of England Branch on 26 April2023.
Speaker: Jo Twiselton
Back in February 2021, Jo Twiselton delivered a talk to the APM East of England branch on the subject of wellbeing and change and with relevance to project management. This event was held on 26 April 2023.
Since then, the wider conversation around change has progressed with hybrid working and the challenges that’s bringing on top of business-as-usual projects, alongside more personal impacts like a cost-of-living crisis, the climate and most recently, the death of the Queen. The pace of change hasn’t slowed and is unlikely to in the near future either.
This undercurrent of uncertainty can impact individuals and teams and having ways to both recognise and manage this, can be helpful.
Recognising that some of these challenges still remain for many but also, that we are all at different points in the change journey, the proposal is that this talk explores some of the topics from workshop 1 and expands further, bringing things up to date.
So, in this session, we explored:
Change and uncertainty – why they spark the reactions they do
What does this mean for project management?
Wellbeing, resilience and mindset – practical approaches to take
Integrating wellbeing and resilience in practice

Proven Approaches for Expediting Your Personal Growth!
First and foremost, personal evolution is a conscious decision. It is not something determined by our genetics; rather, it is a holistic approach to life. It requires us to mindfully recognize how our internal thoughts and external influences shape and impact each other.
One common mistake people make is confusing causes with effects. Many believe that confidence is the cause of success, but a comprehensive meta-analytic review reveals the opposite. Confidence is actually a byproduct of positive choices and actions. When studying various psychological subjects, conflicting data can be found on both sides, making it essential for individuals to make a choice.
In the field of psychology, complexity abounds, leaving us with a decision to make. We can choose to focus on data that enables us and empowers us to reach our full potential, or we can choose data that justifies mediocrity. Surprisingly, even psychologists often prefer the latter, as we selectively attend to information that aligns with our pre-existing beliefs. Our behaviors and outcomes in life are often a reflection of the personal standards and expectations we hold for ourselves.

Leadership Decision Making and the Power of Observation.pdfFuwadBeg1
Our world is in perpetual motion, constantly changing and ever evolving.
For leaders, this momentum is relentless and brings an infinite number of challenges and opportunities.
By understanding how to harness this momentum; how to adapt in ambiguity and complexity whilst simultaneously preparing for what future challenges lie ahead is the very essence of leadership.
The following article explores leadership decision making and the power of observation as a distinction in making better decisions.
When we discuss our decision-making processes we generally believe we are objective in our approach and that somehow we are without preconceptions.
The reality, however, is that we make a decision based upon well-trodden behavioral patterns, through learned behavioral outcomes and well-established neural pathways built through repetitious triggers throughout our lives, creating our own standard process of decision making.
As leaders when we are faced with ambiguous challenges, we use our own standards based upon our past experiences to formulate our future responses.
By building reflective meta cognitive learning processes in our decision making we can become better at understanding ourselves and our biases and thus how we make decisions.
This is a deep topic and this article in a humble manner only explores the surface...
Read, enjoy, observe, reflect and learn.
Place matters for health! A growing body of research over the last several decades has shown the connections between place and health. From obesity and chronic disease to depression, social isolation, or increased exposure to environmental toxins and pollutants, a person’s zip code can be a more reliable determinant of health than their genetic code.
In 2016, Project for Public Spaces compiled a report of peer-reviewed research that found key factors linking pubic spaces and peoples’ health. And public spaces are more than just parks and plazas – our streets represent the largest area of public space a community has!
This webinar will introduce participants to the placemaking process, the research behind the findings linking place and health, and how to envision streets as places – not just their function in transporting people and goods, but the vital role they play in animating the social and economic life of communities.
Using case problems, this webinar will give attendees real-world examples of workplace wellness situations and help attendees learn from those situations so that they can design and implement a compliant wellness program. Through case problems, attendees will review compliance mistakes concerning HIPAA, ACA, GINA, ADA, FLSA, data privacy and tax laws. Participants will learn how to use those laws to build a better workplace wellness program.
Learning Objectives:
* Understand how to apply laws to specific factual situations.
* Identify red flags in certain common workplace wellness practices.
* Learn the basics of HIPAA, ACA, GINA, ADA, FLSA, data privacy and tax laws as those laws relate to workplace wellness programs.
Looking for a healthier investment strategy? A new study by The Health Project (THP) finds that a portfolio of stock in companies that have won the prestigious C. Everett Koop National Health Award -- recognizing effective workplace health promotion programs -- has significantly outperformed the Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index over the past 14 years. Since 2000, investing in Koop Award winners would have produced more than double the returns of the S&P 500, according to the new research led by THP President and CEO Dr. Ron Goetzel. Tune in to this webinar to hear more about this and related studies.
This webinar will discuss the prevalence of pre-diabetes and it’s contributing factors and the initial efforts to translate the National Diabetes Prevention Program to public health. We will also look at new approaches to providing interventions.

CDC will provide an overview of their WorkLife Wellness Office services and describe how they used the HealthLead accreditation process to provide a framework to assess the comprehensiveness of their new office and existing programs and processes. Also, how the scoring of framework identified strengths and weaknesses and how the assessment plan of action is used for future strategic planning to drive new connections, data sources, and programmatic gaps as they strive to achieve HealthLead Silver. CDC will share specific examples of what was required and shared as part of the HealthLead audit during the presentation.
The way you communicate, and what you communicate, shapes how your employees feel about working there. Yet organizations often fail to prioritize corporate communication, to the detriment of their entire workplace culture.
Regular communication with employees sends the message that you value them as whole people. And consistent, meaningful communication can strengthen the employee-employer relationship. And when that relationship is strong, everyone wins: the employees, the employer, and the customers, clients, or patients.
You’ll come away from this webinar with immediately-useful tips and insider tricks from our 30+ years of experience producing engaging employee communications and leave with a blueprint of how to produce your own communications, or evaluate a vendor’s options, plus creative options.
We are reminded of the risk of workplace violence every time we hear of a tragic shooting on the news. As wellness professionals, we often have a broad contact with individuals who are struggling and with the structures of organizations that can have an influence on whether those individuals get help or act out their anger and frustration. In this session we will look at risk factors that can be identified to indicate that an individual needs additional assessment and help and at the organizational structures that can be implemented to reduce the risk of violence in your workplace. It is important that, as wellness professionals, we look at how to address this extreme form of unhealthy behavior.
Wellness is who we are, not what we do. As Oklahoma State University’s Chief Wellness Officer, Dr. Suzy Harrington shares a comprehensive, evidence based, wellness strategy model, driving America’s Healthiest Campus®. This model is transferrable to any setting to strategize the collaboration and vision for students, employees, and in the communities in which we live, learn, work, play, and pray. In addition to the model, Dr. Harrington will share the foundational structures that must be in place to support a sustainable culture of wellness.
Have you ever wondered why it is that even people who desperately want to adopt healthier lifestyles don’t stick with them once their initial burst of motivation fades? This provocative webinar will discuss the surprising reasons this is true and also showcase a new science-based paradigm to motivate healthy behavior so it is maintained over time. Dr. Michelle Segar will explain why logic-based reasons for behavior change (e.g., better heath, disease prevention, etc.) keep people stuck in cycles of starting and stopping but not behavioral sustainability. Using story and science, she will describe an easy-to-adopt, novel approach to promoting health, wellness, and fitness behaviors that leading organizations are starting to adopt. Attendees will leave this webinar with a more strategic way to communicate about and promote the sustainable behavior necessary for achieving improved health and well-being.
This webinar will discuss the major federal laws that impact workplace wellness program design, including the Affordable Care Act/HIPAA Nondiscrimination rules on the use of financial incentives, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), federal tax laws as well as recent EEOC action such as the proposed ADA rules and lawsuits against Honeywell, Flambeau and Orion Energy Systems. Through case examples, the speaker will explain how each of these laws interact with one another, who enforces these laws, what to expect in terms of future guidance, and how health promotion professionals can use these laws as tools in designing more effective and inclusive workplace wellness programs.

Samantha Harden discuss provides an overview of the RE_AIM framework which evaluates the effectiveness of interventions based on the following five dimensions:
Reach into the target population
Effectiveness or efficacy
Adoption by target settings, institutions and staff
Implementation - consistency and cost of delivery of intervention
Maintenance of intervention effects in individuals and settings over time.
We will also practice using RE-AIM in planning, implementation, and evaluation and share resources available on RE-AIM.org.
Learning Objectives
1. Understand the five RE-AIM dimensions
2. Practice using RE-AIM for planning, implementation, and evaluation
3. Explore available resources found at RE-AIM.org
Simply applying knowledge we have reliably in hand, we could prevent fully 80% of all chronic disease and premature death in modernized and modernizing countries. Standing between us and that prize is an obstacle course of competing claims, false promises, and profit-driven, pop culture nonsense. The case will be made for True Health Coalition to rally diverse voices to the cause of using what we know, even as we pursue what we do not. The challenges, operations, and promise of the endeavor will be discussed.
Shannon Polly will lead a webinar on teaching tangible techniques and exercises that help people cultivate presence. The hour-long webinar will also include information on what science is telling us about presence. Shannon Polly brings both her expertise as a professional actor, playwright and Broadway producer and her background in positive psychology as a teacher, facilitator and coach to this somatic approach to well-being and thriving.
“It’s a common myth that you either have ‘executive presence’ – that essence that helps you to command a room – or you don’t”, says Polly, “but that is simply not true. As an actor, I know there are tricks and techniques, and as a Positive Psychology Expert, I also know that how you carry yourself physically has a big impact.”

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

The
broaden-‐and-‐build
theory
of
posi8ve
emo8ons
suggests
that
posiLve
emoLons
broaden
one's
awareness
and
encourage
novel,
varied,
and
exploratory
thoughts
and
acLons.
Over
Lme,
this
broadened
behavioral
repertoire
builds
skills
and
