THE BEST WE CAN OFFER IS OUR REAL SELF
IT’S THE ONLY THING THAT WORKS – IT’S THE ONLY THING THAT EVER HAS
Each of us is perfectly shaped by our history for the adventure we are meant to live, and we can only do that by learning to be REAL in all our relationships. Being REAL can feel risky and vulnerable, which is why we often hide, pretend or defend. These very strategies and defenses end up stunting our personal and professional evolution.
REAL CONNECTION IS THE DIFFERENCE!
Clearmind International Institute offers in-person and on-line Career Training for Counsellors, Personal Growth Workshops, and Leadership Development. Whether it be in one of our weekend workshops or longer programs, we provide an adventure of self-and-other discovery and training in the skills required to be a positive influencer. Our cutting-edge programs move beyond self help, supporting people from around the globe to ignite their passion, transform anxiety into excitement, depression into compassion and pain into purpose through REAL Connection.
Our mission is to help you access the power of REAL and AUTHENTIC CONNECTION with yourself and others, so you can accelerate your personal evolution while positively impacting the world!
Research shows people thrive in strong relationships
Most of the problems we face in life are actually relationship problems. We are happier, healthier and live longer when we feel connected. When we don’t, we suffer. Despite our best intentions, the way we try to address our dilemmas often backfires. We are strategic in our efforts to belong because we get scared that if we reveal our REAL SELVES we will be rejected and hurt. We hide, pretend and defend instead of being REAL.
Connection is the doorway to being fully alive
Our unique method harnesses the power of experiential process. We create sustainable change through REAL experiences of connection in our programs and workshops by working directly with the emotions and relationship dynamics that are both the problem and solution to our dilemmas. And unlike many personal growth workshops out there, we offer ongoing support afterwards to help you integrate this change into your day-to-day life.
Disconnection hurts
“Disconnection hurts. We want to share what we’ve learned, because we’ve been there.” – Catherine and Duane O’Kane
Duane and Catherine O’Kane, co-founders of Clearmind International, are Registered Clinical Counsellors with over 60 combined years of training and experience. They created Clearmind International and its programs from this wealth of expertise, but more significantly their body of work has emerged out of their personal struggles with REAL authentic connection. Duane and Catherine continue to do their “work” and share their learnings with passion, vulnerability and humour.
