Eric Jensen here.
You know I am science junkie.
But this note and announcement is about educators, like yourself, applying real science in your own career and personal life.
It is about you, once and for all, learning how to manage (and thrive) in a stressful world.
To find answers for you, I don't do a Google search and look for a blogger writing about stress.
I go to the people at the top of the food chain. My "reliables" are the researchers I have met or who have done the hard science to figure out the brain. In science, they get those "apex discoveries." These are the people that also get mainstream attention, like the Nobel Prize.
Your odds of winning the Nobel prize are less than those for being struck by lightning or winning the lottery. Fortunately, many Nobel Laureates have made life changing, relevant discoveries you can benefit from.
Meet Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn.
She was on the team (I have shared this study since it was published over 15 years ago) that showed, biologically, how stress impacts aging. The researchers used two groups of moms (same demographics, aged 20-50). One group had a healthy child and the other group of moms each had a chronically ill child. The moms with a chronically ill child were not just more stressed, but they aged an astonishing 5-17 years faster (biologically speaking) than the less stressed
group of moms. This study showed clear evidence that chronic stress is a rapid aging accelerant.
I followed Dr. Blackburn's career as she won the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology. Then I took note as she became the first female president of Salk Institute of Biological Studies in San Diego (where I am a member of the President's Club). Today her work continues in the laboratory. She is redefining longevity with the impact of her prize-winning co-discovery of a new enzyme called telemerase (it slows the aging process). I have actually used her findings to
maintain robust health. Her work has changed my life, and it can change yours, too.
What does this mean for you?
Over time, few things in my own life have been as valuable as learning how my brain stresses and what to do about it. Years ago, I just never understood how BAD chronic or acute stress is for our brain. I never knew how many individuals suffer from stress that they actually "pick up" from others. I couldn't understand how helpless one can become with a stress disability.
I have learned how to prepare for and manage extremely stressful situations, create routines, calm my own brain down, and respond to stress in ways that I never dreamed possible.
I'll share with you every important insight and strategy I have discovered (and implemented) in an upcoming event… and it's free to you.
Keep reading if you or your colleagues:
- struggle with managing your own stress
- have students who may have stress disorders
- work at a school where most staff are frazzled
- realize how bad chronic or acute stress can be
- want to find a way out of this "stress mess"
You are about to get access to an amazing event on Thursday, May 7, 2020.
During the event I will introduce you to five (5) powerful, must-have tools for a healthy stress response:
- the critical mindset
- prevention from stress
- stress resistance
- resilience and recovery
- alignment internally
Most educators (and others) leave out at LEAST 2 or 3 essentials of the 5-steps. Their stress stays high, so they give up. Their life (and work at school) stays the same. Maybe this is true for you, and you’ve become convinced that stress is just "what it is" and there's no escape.
I can tell you, that's a flat out lie.
I will show you that all the "parts" of the de-stress lifestyle connect. Without all of them, you stand little chance of success. Allow me to share the tools to give yourself the stress-less life of a "super-hero."
The date is Thursday, May 7, 2020 at 12 noon Pacific time. The 75-minute webinar event is free and online. This live streaming will be the only way to view this webinar for zero cost, and it is limited to 1,000 people only. To gain access, you must register in advance by simply clicking HERE.
You'll be glad you did.
Sincerely,
Eric Jensen

P.S. Again, please be aware that this event will be live! To view for free, you must be there. It will not be available for free after May 7, 2020. I hope you can join me.
