Presentations for the Community
Education elevates and empowers growth.
Educational learning programs, seminars and presentations offered on community platforms offer everyday citizens the opportunity to expand their knowledge, learn new skill sets and meet and connect with others. Non-profit foundations, public and private educational institutions and local government-based citizen programs are a convenient venue for individuals and families to learn by.
Dr. Nixon, a seasoned community, professional and business speaker, has created a mulitude of mental health, wellness, meditation and nature-based mindfulness presentations to teach and inspire teens and adults. Presentations aim to meet the mission and needs of the program and organization.
Presentation Catalog
In addition to custom presentations and seminars, Dr. Nixon has the following presentation already packaged and available:
The Power of Mindfulness
In this experiential seminar, we’ll explore how mindfulness opens the door to deeper self-awareness, emotional balance, and meaningful connection. When we learn to quiet the mental noise and be fully present in our bodies, we begin to access a centered state of mind, an expanded sense of space and time, and a heart that is more open and connected. Through guided practices and reflection, you’ll discover how mindfulness focuses your intention, deepens your capacity to listen, and strengthens your relationships—with yourself, others, and the world around you.
Regain Your Mental Well-Being Post Pandemic
Metaphorically speaking, COVID-19 impacted many of us like a sudden tsunami that we didn’t see coming. We swirled in disbelief, experienced more confusion than certainty, felt more intense emotions than we were accustomed to and it impacted nearly every facet of our day-to-day life. Will this affect our mental, emotional and physical health? Absolutely. Learn how the pandemic affected our overall health and what steps you can take to secure your well-being.
Mindfulness Skills and Practices for Teens
With the upsurge in teen stress, mental health conditions and feelings of isolation, teens need tools and practices to calm the mind and body. Gathering as a group to learn and practice meditation supports teens’ needs to connect with peers and provides a social opportunity to develop positive coping skill sets and share experiences.
Manage Your Stress for Enhanced Well-Being
Everyday life can bring on a series of “stressors” that are challenging to cope with. Unmanaged stress contributes to feelings of overwhelm, exhaustion, anxiety, depression and poor health. Understanding the impact of stress on the mind and body, identifying personal triggers and learning mind-body skills to manage stress, empowers you to improve your overall health and well-being.
Enhance Your Mental Health Fitness
We often talk about being “physically fit”, yet we rarely talk about being “psychologically fit”. Our psychological well-being is just as critical as our physical well-being, and our ability to function well in the world is dependent on both. Learn the elements that comprise being psychologically fit and well, and ways to strengthen your mind, balance your emotions and increase your mental capacity and emotional intelligence.
The Wheel Of Health: Your Way Towards Empowered Well-Being
A Whole Health approach to health emphasizes the many aspects of our life that contribute to our well-being. Duke University’s Integrative Medicine Center developed the Wheel of Health, a model mapping out the essential foundations of good health. Gaining insight into your current health situation, empowers you to clarify personal health objectives, set attainable goals and determine effective lifestyle behaviors to incorporate into your daily life.
7 Essential Habits to Boost Your Health and Recharge Your Energy
