"I have been doing drugs and selling for over 15 years. I was in so much pain, I was next to death. I spent over $500,000.00 in drugs and rehab programs. Your 5 day program gave me the release and the peace I have always been looking for. I wish I knew about this program 15 years ago. I would have been in a totally differently place. My eyes are now open. I can get things out and I now have the tools to look at myself and life in a totally different way. Your course was the safest place I have ever been in my life. I have the tools to live fully. Pack your bags and attend as soon as you can to get the joy and happiness you have always wanted."

GET HIGH ON LIFE With Self-Esteem Youth Program

  

A program for youth to help them

believe in themselves, make choices to

be responsible for their own life and to

be prepared to make a difference in

the world.

This life skills program is designed to

give youth ages 8 to 24 a boost in

self-esteem, communications, the ability

to get along with others, emotion

management, getting along with

parents and family, positive attitudes,

    and give them an understanding of how those wounds have held them back and more importantly how to move forward in their lives

  • Give them an understanding of how their past
    effects them so they can make new choices under stressful conditions

  • Learn how to do problem-solving and decision making

  • How to overcome obstacles in life

 

GOALS

 

The goal is to build a firm foundation
in each person to love themselves
enough so that they can love others.
Everything they do in life,

including academics, will come out of

how they feel about themselves.  The

goal is to greatly increase the respect

for and honoring of themselves with

an understanding of who they were

truly made to be.  This will help

them determine their purpose in life so

they are comfortable with themselves

and have life direction.  This will, in

turn, open them up to treat others

with dignity and respect.

 

All learning is experiential. 
We use auditory, visual, sensing and
tactile modes.  We include songs,
stories and activities. 
Through experiences, people learn
and recall best, assuring their success
is sustained for years and generations.

 

We engage and challenge students with
the use of questions and answers,
profiles and assessment tools within
the program.  We instill hope in
each person and show them how to
achieve more joy and success in their life.

 

We utilize one-on-one time,
discussions with partners, and small
group discussions.

 

Once they have a foundation of
really FEELING acceptance and respect
for themselves, then they can move
to respecting everyone else.  Out of
this program naturally flows:

  • Increased happiness, passion and engagement in life
  • Increased acceptance, respect and love for themselves and others
  • Increased courage to speak what is true for them and increased connectedness to others
  • Empowering them through the experiential activities
  • Increased integrity
  • Increased curiosity
  • Increased academic success
  • Giving them a passion for lifelong learning because they know how to be successful
  • Increased accountability for their own actions by being responsible for everything they think, say, do and feel
  • Empowering the students to make wise choices
  • Increasing joy, peace and patience
  • Reducing depression
  • Reduced psychosomatic illness
  • Reducing gossip and jealousy
  • Reducing bullying
  • Freedom from trying to get unhealthy attention
  • Reduce alcohol abuse
  • Reduced drug abuse
  • Reduced violence
  • Less suicidal thoughts and reduce the suicide rate
  • Increasing their skill and comfort level with their communication with their parents and peers
  • Improving the relationship with their parents and authority figures
  •  They will see life with new eyes instilling in them a desire to make themselves better each day and helping others to do the same
