Course Description

At least 35% of people experience a mental illness like depression or anxiety throughout their lifetime. That means that you or someone you love needs resources to know how to feel better.  Many people have heard that “chemical imbalance” or genes can affect mental health, but most people don’t know that you can actually change your brain chemistry without medication! Your brain's ability to change is called Neuroplasticity. 

People want to improve their lives, they just often don’t know where to start. I’m making this course  because this is fundamental information that I want all my clients to know. I teach simple daily habits that research has shown to work better than Prozac at treating depression or anxiety. Many of these changes take only minutes a day.

By the end of this course you’ll know 10 ways that you can change your brain’s chemistry, structure and function. You’ll learn how to prime your brain to be healthier and happier.  

You’ll learn:

  • what modern imaging technology has taught us about neuroplasticity-your brain’s ability to rewire itself

  • about using your body to regulate your brain

  • what nutrient deficiencies to look out for

  • how to resolve the “scarcity brain”

  • techniques for resolving stress

  • and more!   

And in my work as a therapist I’ve seen this information change lives, resolve depression and anxiety and help people be happier and healthier.   

 So if you or someone you loves experiences mental illness, or if you just want to know how to be happier, come join me!

Emma McAdam

Hi there! I’m Emma McAdam, I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and I love helping people change. But I get it that understanding mental health can be confusing and stressful, but I also know that there’s hope-you can change your brain and resolve painful emotions- and I can walk you through that process.

I’ve been working in the field of change and growth since 2004. I got my Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Utah State University and I’m currently licensed in the state of Utah. I’ve worked in settings like Juvenile Corrections, Adventure Therapy programs, High Schools, Wilderness Therapy programs, an Eating Disorder Treatment Center, a Residential Treatment Center, and Outpatient Therapy.

It can be so hard for so many people to access mental health resources. There’s big obstacles like cost, stigma, not knowing where to look or lack of high-quality local resources, and these make it hard for people to be able to get basic mental health services.

Course is great and to the point. It is a good summary of different strategies I learnt elsewhere over the time and it was a good recap/refreshment for me. But it is likely to be very beneficial for many people, who are just starting to explore this area. The only slight comment I have is that it is clear that various parts of the courses were shot at different time, so there is a bit of overlap and redundancy in certain places, but this is really not a significant. So I very much recommend this course.

By Lizzie Riley on 3/26/2021

I enjoyed the class, but I don't feel that I got as much out of it as I would have liked. This would be fine if I had not already been battling severe anxiety for years. I already know this stuff. Idk where to turn for help for where I am at now.

good information on black and white thinking

By Helen spencer on 10/24/2020

I purchased this some years ago I have done it several times . That’s the beauty of a corse you can do store reply . I have read a lot on this subject seem many other videos but this is by far the best . I recommend it to any one. Easy concepts to understand stand but not always easy to always practice so you may like me need to do the course again months or even years later .

By Helen spencer on 10/24/2020

I am happy with this course but it is presumed every one participating is in the USA .noticed when mentioning seeing a doctor about tests for vitamins etc this is something people do in the USA I guess

By Paul Cox on 10/24/2020

This course is great, so far.

By Stefanie Danker on 10/13/2020

I really appreciate the science behind the techniques. I think it was shared in a way that made sense and giving that research really makes it feel like "This will work" rather than just feeling like it's fluff.

By Shanthi D'Souza on 10/13/2020

Yes. It was a very rich and fascinating course. I gained a number of insights. The tutor is a highly experienced professional. The choice of content and the video presentattions were apt and extremely resourceful.

By Andreas Oberli on 10/10/2020

So far, the most helpful things i have learned about improving your mental health. Great course!

By Laura emiliani on 10/7/2020

For the moment this course is very promising. I am suffering from depression and anxiety and I am really curious about alternatives to medications and simply ways to get better. The main reason to watch this is to be able to help others and notably students if they struggle with mental issues

By Iris Rojas on 10/2/2020

Very belpful. I have been dealing with anxiety along with Sibo for many years. And now i am managing both and feeling better than ever. Helpful and easy exercises.

By Darly Duque on 9/24/2020
