Plenary Session Synopsis:

We Are the Agents of Higher Consciousness

Most of us become educators and coaches because we want to contribute to our students’ or clients’ well-being, their social, emotional, and academic growth, and create a world that improves with every generation, right? However, in the past few decades, with the explosion of technology, we struggle to strike a balance that develops skills and a depth of learning that generates problem solvers as well as mindful thinkers and leaders.

If you are attending this amazing Neurolanguage Coaching Conference, you likely realize the power of brain-friendly practices in your routine, and the positive outcomes that can result from developing students’ or clients’ concepts of what it means to be mindful in today’s world.

In an interactive presentation, Patricia (Trish) Wilkinson, founder of Brain Stages Parenting and Education, is going to offer an empowering perspective and practical tools for balancing brain health and technology, while creating context for your students’ or clients’ social, emotional, and intellectual growth. You will be encouraged to see your role, and how educators and coaches are in the process of elevating human consciousness for a better tomorrow.
