The Program

Stress is the #1 underlying cause of up to 90 percent of health problems.

Every American needs to be stress effective, able to switch off stress on the spot. Stress effectiveness takes checking your stress number, and using the corresponding tool to switch off stress.

This method will equip you with the skills to do that.

The EBT Approach

Using this method involves two steps, which typically take four minutes or less:

Step 1. Ask yourself, "What’s my number?"

Check your stress level on a 5-point scale. Once you know your number, reduce your stress quickly and easily with our easy-to-use tools.

Step 2. Take action with purpose

Next, sustain your optimal state by using our Take Action Tool. It helps you to move forward effectively with clarity and purpose.

How the Program Works

Begin . . . Try Out the Tools

Become a Try Out the Tools member of the community. Start using the tools and feel relaxed and positive right from the start.

Next . . . Learn How to Rewire

After one to three weeks, you will be more stress effective and want to learn more. Upgrade your membership and learn how to rewire your stress so you can feel better faster and sustain that optimal state of well-being for longer. Choose a private or small group option.

Last . . . Raise Your Set Point

Use our advanced courses to train your brain for optimal resilience and to experience the seven rewards of a purposeful life: sanctuary, authenticity, vibrancy, integrity, intimacy, spirituality, and freedom. Become stress-effective. Unlock your brain’s power for health, happiness, and purpose.

The Healing Power of Mindfulness Apr 07, 2020

Show notes

Discover how mindfulness can help you with healing.

More than 20 years ago, Jon Kabat-Zinn showed us the value of cultivating greater awareness in everyday life with his now-classic introduction to mindfulness, Wherever You Go, There You Are. Now, in The Healing Power of Mindfulness, he shares a cornucopia of specific examples as to how the cultivation of mindfulness can reshape your relationship with your own body and mind - explaining what we're learning about neuroplasticity and the brain, how meditation can affect our biology and our health, and what mindfulness can teach us about coming to terms with all sorts of life challenges, including our own mortality, so we can make the most of the moments we have.

Originally published in 2005 as part of a larger book titled Coming to Our Senses, The Healing Power of Mindfulness features a new foreword by the author and timely updates throughout the text. If you are interested in learning more about how mindfulness as a way of being can help us to heal, physically and emotionally, look no further than this deeply personal and also "deeply optimistic book, grounded in good science and filled with practical recommendations for moving in the right direction" (Andrew Weil, MD), from one of the pioneers of the worldwide mindfulness movement.

Tales from a Naturalist in Costa Rica Mar 31, 2020

Show notes

Evelio's Garden is a lyrical meditation on cultural values, friendship, aging, loss, and, ultimately, the healing power of the natural world.

In the enchanting world of the of Costa Rican highlands, the author begins a memoir, tracing the seasons and closely observing the natural riches around her. But Evelio, who helped build their house, interrupts with an idea to plant an organic garden on their property. Over the course of a challenging year full of unpredictable weather, wild animals and toxic chemicals, their friendship grows as Evelio teaches her about the rural sustainability of Costa Rica in decades past. Pulling her into the daily ups and downs of his project, he creates an often funny, always frustrating, and ultimately rewarding counterpoint to her own work, such that the two intertwine on the page...and lead her to confront a difficult past and open up to profound personal change.

Sandra Shaw Homer has lived in Costa Rica for 29 years, where she has taught languages and worked as an interpreter/translator and environmental activist. In addition to a column in the local press, her creative nonfiction, fiction and poetry have appeared in a variety of print and online literary and travel journals, as well as on her own blog, writingfromtheheart.net.
