The Healthy Thinking Initiative is a program that trains your organization in mindfulness, optimism, and resilience, bringing you and your employees the best available psychological knowledge and skills. We select our interventions by carefully reviewing ongoing psychological research and we are continuously gathering data to ensure the best scientific foundations for our efforts on your behalf.

The Skills We Teach:

    Optimism is a set of skills associated in research with improved outcomes in almost all aspects of organizational life. Many managers and executives are very aware of the benefits of optimism for high performance but they are surprised to find out that it can be learned.

     Resilience is a critical tool for handling the stress and pressure of the real world of business. In a recent poll taken by the American Psychological Association, 68% of employees wanted more training in skills that would build resilience to stress.

     Mindfulness is being employed by many organizations in their efforts to improve the psychological well-being of employees. It is also improving the bottom line for these companies. It involves learning to pay attention, on purpose, in the present moment, without judgment. This brings about increased awareness that facilitates effective decision making.
