Using Havening Techniques, you’ll visualise two paths – one where everything stays the same, the other investing more energy in your focus area. You’ll experience what it means to create a plan from a glass overflowing with energy. Then we put it into action, specifying what, when, how long and tips to keep accountable to make this month the best yet!
