Dive deep into experiential learning in this hands-on retreat, uncovering a unique approach to resilience that echoes the personal journey and profound experiences of positive psychology and mind-body medicine expert Emiliya Zhivotovskaya.
Emiliya embodies the essence of resilience and transformation, having traversed through the realms of loss, persecution, and immigration, transforming her pain into an enlightening pathway for others. She combines research-based tools from the field of positive psychology with two decades of applying the science with practitioners and change agents.
In a world overflowing with uncertainties, learning the skills of resilience is paramount. Emiliya—with her exuberant energy, masterful experience curation, and capacity to create joy, play, and hands-on learning—shares essential life skills that transform how you experience stress and face life's varying adversities, teaching you not just to stress less, but to stress better.
Throughout the week, you systematically learn and practice the 16 core resilience skills (see below) that lead to mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual mastery, scientifically proven to fortify mental toughness, emotional agility, grit, and antifragility. This systematic training weaves through four levels of mastery, filling your toolkit with skills to navigate traumatic experiences and daily triggers alike.
Through interactive, embodied learning experiences, you absorb resilience and positive psychology through joy and play. Elevate your existence and enlighten your spirit. Learning these skills empowers you to transform life's obstacles into catalysts for growth and renewal, next-leveling your capacity for resilience and personal power.
Upon completion, you receive a certificate of course completion in the Bounce Back Better® Resilience System and exclusive access to the Flourishing Center's Online Resilience Tools and Community.
The Bounce Back Better System is based on the concept of the Rubik's Cube where skills are taught in a systematic manner. Each day builds on the day before. Each skill deepens the one that came before it. By the time you are done, you have a comprehensive skillset that can be applied in any area of your life.
Bonus: Emiliya also teaches you to solve a Rubik's Cube by the end of the retreat. Not only do you learn a skillset that will last you a lifetime, you also learn a party trick that will impress your friends and family.
