How EmPower Works
Repeat… Action… Repeat
Mental health is made up of two things – our thinking and our feelings. Many available programmes focus exclusively on our thinking. This has many benefits but can be extremely hard to do in difficult times. Your feelings derive from your emotions. This is why we concentrate on emotional power – how you can focus your own emotions to improve your emotional health and then in turn your feelings, thinking, wellbeing, and mental health. EmPower is short for Emotional Power, with good reason.
What makes EmPower different is that we go beyond thinking and talking and into action. You create your own spectrum of simple, enjoyable actions which you practice. Repeatedly practicing simple, easy, and enjoyable actions re-trains your body and develops different neural networks in your brain. This re-focusses your emotional memory so, with time, your ‘go-to’ feelings become more in tune with what you desire. Feeling better becomes a habit.
There are three sources for the EmPower Programme:
Clinical psychology, psychological therapy, and a huge amount of lived experience, trial, error, and improvement.
Education, Practice, Group
As you design your own actions, aligned with your goals and created with education and guidance, you will achieve your own definition of a happier more successful life. That’s if you commit to learning, practising, and connecting with your group. It works when you do the work.
Our challenge is to make your work as simple and effective as we possibly can, so we put much effort into that for you.
