​Keeping your New Year's Resolutions:
The Science of Setting and Meeting Goals

Thursday, January 28th 
7:00-8:30 p.m.

Cost: $15.00
Crossings, A Center for the Healing Traditions
8505 Fenton Street, Suite 202 
Silver Spring MD 20910 

Research shows that 80% of goals that are set are not met. Why? Because people confuse goal meeting with goal setting. We often set goals that we don’t meet and then judge ourselves as lacking in motivation, willpower, or follow-through, when that’s often not the case. Join us as we explore what research in positive psychology and neuroscience identifies as the most effective processes for meeting your goals and following through on your resolutions. Go beyond the outdated SMART Goals, debunk myths people subscribe to about goals, and experience what sets positive psychology apart from pop psychology: scientifically proven tools. This workshop is ideal for anyone who wants to become more effective at setting appropriate goals and meeting them, or anyone in a position that involves responsibility for helping others succeed and maximizing their potential. 

This workshop includes content from the Certificate in Applied Positive Psychology (CAPP) program. The next Washington, DC cohort begins on April 2 at Crossings.

What enables individuals, organizations and communities to thrive?  That’s the question addressed by a wealth of research in the new field of Positive Psychology. Where traditional psychology has focused on treating and fixing what’s wrong in a person’s life, positive psychology equips people with skills for increasing their positive emotions, life satisfaction, and well-being.  Join us and uncover misconceptions about happiness, explore the 6 pathways to flourishing, and learn to master your mind and body by understanding how we’re all wired. Take home proven and practical tools for supporting yourself and others in becoming authentically happier.

​Bounce Back Better: Tools for Building Resilience

Saturday, February 20th 
1:00-3:00 p.m.

Cost: $20.00
Crossings, A Center for the Healing Traditions
8505 Fenton Street, Suite 202 
Silver Spring MD 20910 

Day to day life is a breeding ground for stress and anxiety.  Your resilience helps you to manage these challenges and to bounce back from setbacks. Many think of resilience as a capacity you either have or you don’t, but a growing body of research reveals that mental toughness or "resilience" is not only a mindset that separates those who succeed from those who plateau, it is a teachable and buildable set of skills. Join us as we uncover the science of resilience, explore how our brain and body are wired, and learn some specific, actionable strategies that will have you bouncing back better.
