Course Description
NOTE: The original goal of this course is to help people maintain mental health and psychological well-being during isolation, quarantine, stress and anxiety due to Covid-19 (Coronavirus), as well as make good use of their time at home, including doing things that help them learn, grow, and thrive. All of the tools are still relevant today.
When home-bound and isolated during Coronavirus quarantine and social distancing, it can be easy to:
Become overwhelmed with worry and fear
Feel helpless due to disruptive life changes outside of your control
Fill your free time with meaningless, mindless distractions
Have your mental health and physical health deteriorate
But, it doesn't have to be this way! Not only can you thrive through this Covid-19 experience by learning how to feel good, or at least better, no matter what is going on around you (mental health), you can also see this as an opportunity: an unintended sabbatical (growth mindset).
In the past 6 years we have spent almost a year home-bound due to a chronic illness – twice – so we know first-hand what it’s like to cope with the stress, fear, anxiety and disruption of being quarantined. More importantly, we have learned how to thrive through it, instead of getting dragged down by restlessness, despair and grief.
In fact, our biggest challenges in life turned out to be life’s greatest blessing.
The growth we experienced and the lessons we learned, both personally and with our business, have completely transformed our lives.
In those moments when we felt like we had no control over our circumstances, we reminded ourselves that we CAN control:
What we focus on
How we feel
How we react
You see, for over a decade we have been teaching and coaching about:
· The psychology of the mind
· Mental health for anxiety & stress
· How to develop a growth mindset
So, we had an opportunity to practice what we preach in a very real way.
We want to share with you everything we learned the hard way about how to develop positive mental health, stay optimistic and not get lost in a downward spiral of worry, fear and anxiety.
We want to share with you how make the most out of isolation and limitation due to Covid-19 by embracing a growth mindset and using your time to do things that feed you and help you grow.
We want to share with you the exact strategies we used to come out on the other side of limitation, disruption and isolation stronger and happier and more focused than ever before.
We want to help you create a vision for your future and a growth mindset so you feel empowered as you journey into the unknown.
When we found ourselves home-bound we were unable to:
Work outside of the home
Visit with family and friends
Do any of the things we love to do
We made a DECISION to look at our quarantine as a sabbatical—an opportunity to grow.
And we welcome you to join us on this quest to make the best out of this situation.
In this course, you will:
Develop a growth mindset and identify areas in which you can learn and grow
Explore ways you can learn anything from home, in your pajamas
Learn strategies for coping with boredom
Making good use of your time and see this as an opportunity
Determine healthy distractions and avoiding unhealthy time-wasting distractions
Create a vision for your life and find purpose in this experience
Set meaningful goals, complete with a ta-da list and an actionable strategy
Learn the psychology of positive mental health
Learn practical tools for coping with stress and anxiety
Explore ways to get your social needs met during social distancing
Learn how to minimize worry and fearful thinking
Know how to find hope, and feeling better—even happy—through it all

yes, i found being alone was a quiet place where my thoughts and fears could consume me. I had to adjust the way I thought and decided that this was a time to make the most of. I worked on myself, my fitness and addiction. I want to learn how to teach others that they are in control of their future and their fate.

Yes, it is a good match due to my current job profile in House Parenting I would require this course to council and handle with students in boarding school. It is a very important and valued course for one's personal mental health and also maintaining health of others. It's a necessity nowadays to manage stress and anxiety .

An outstanding course. Great professional tips to improve and transform lives. One of the best training courses in the genre I have ever attended. Thank you very much to both Natalie and Joeel Rivera! I have already suggested this course to some colleagues and friends.

Over all I am able to overcome the stress I are going through and look for alternative ways to destress my self. But as a feed back the video was always buffing and that delinks the flow of the presentation
By Ken Haile on 5/11/2020
Excellent course from Joeel and Natalie! Helpful strategies await you in working through this situation of quarantine. I especially liked the concept of the stress cliff and how the stages of grief are related to this situation. This course is short, to the point, and loaded with many helpful concepts and suggestions. Thank you Joeel and Natalie!
By Ruth Farias on 4/20/2020
Hi, I like it, it helps to take it easy in this time of been home all day without having your regular activities, without seen all the people that you regularly see. It has good ideas and is very easy to understand.
By Andreas Thoma on 4/12/2020
Great course, explains and suggests a lot of things that will help you grow throughout this difficult period due to the pandemic and the isolation that everyone experiences. As a psychologist I would love to see more about the emotional part of people during this hard time
By Maita Beltran on 4/3/2020
Taking this course helped put me back into a more practical learning mode. Most appreciated was the reference to Joeel's health-related story and bouncing back from that with the support of Natalie through the use of Visioning and using that experience to change their lives for the better. I'm inspired by that. Thank you.

Thank you very much! Have recommended this to my contacts - especially those with seniors/vulnerable family members. The information you so generously supplied is as essential as it is timely. I also love watching my instructors walk their talk - its affirming. Wishing you all the best!

It is a really useful and fulfilling course particularly during the time of crisis. I am sure it will help many overcome their fears and boredom and to find a more useful way to make use of the islolation or quarantine. It is also helpful for others who are undergoing any kind of stress and grief to come out of it and lead a more gratifying life. Thank you
