I thoroughly recommend these life-changing courses.” LW

“When first told about the Boosting Life Skills course, I didn’t think that it was for me but would be willing to give it a go if my wife was interested. She was, so we both attended the first meeting – and I quickly realised how useful this course could be. We attended every session since. Upon the announcement of the follow-up Boosting Relationship Skills course we both signed up and are glad we did.
The sessions are well run, informative and fun. Every session includes teaching, relevant anecdotes and Q&As, and we are provided with excellent handouts.
The course taught us that it is ok to have different personality styles, that we were born with these styles and that we cannot change anyone’s style, not even our own. And we shouldn’t try! I now accept that people can have different personality styles from my own, and that no style can be classified as good or bad.
We were also taught, among many other things, how to build up our self-confidence, enabling us to leverage small successes to achieve larger goals.
The Boosting Life Skills and Boosting Relationship Skills courses have proved to be invaluable in all aspects of life and I unreservedly recommend them.” TW
“… I was encouraged to learn that one can replace negative neural pathways in the brain with positive neural networks, by employing more positive self-talk. I now find it easier to discount the negative thoughts in my mind and live a happier and more productive life; more at peace with the world. I thoroughly recommend this course to anyone wanting similarly to get a more positive outlook on life”. JW
“I found the course interesting and helpful in developing strategies in managing situations in daily life. It was affirming to see how our personalities can influences our lives, but also giving help in changing, altering or enhancing our thoughts and behaviour in a practical way.
The course is relevant to folk in many situations whether in a work context, dealing with family life or in my case retirement. Without the structure of employment and work colleagues, retirement can be a challenge for many to develop interests and positivity.
I would heartily recommend this course.” MJH

My personal recommendation is to ‘give this course a try’: you’ve got nothing to lose and a lot to gain!” JM
“What worked best for me was the use of practical examples to illustrate the points made about each topic. It was useful to have the course material discussed.

I thought I know everything about life, but the course was an eye-opener for me. Having done the course, I make better choices and I am not depressed any more. This is because I am able to catch my negative thoughts and change them to positive ones – before they become a negative pattern.” AO
“This course has developed my motivation to be more positive and assertive in a positive way. Learning about the different Personality Styles has enabled me to show more patience and consideration for others. All the course material was self-explanatory and clear to understand. The course strengthens your attitude and outlook and allows you to take control of your own goals. It reminds you to respect the attributes, manners and thinking of other people. As a result you become considerate and a better person who is more positive and in control of life.” EH

“At first, I hesitated to attend; I’m glad I did as I have benefitted!!” LC

The course made me understand the biblical principle of how each of us as individuals, while being part of the one body, have such a unique place in that body, so that if we are not fulfilling our God-given role, the whole body is the poorer (or weaker) for it.” LD
“I liked the course subject, because it makes us reflect on values that unfortunately are being lost every day in our society: such as listening and not judging, respect, transparency, empathy and predisposition to learn as much from our defects as those of others.

However, on this occasion, I took the focus off me and used the techniques learned on the course. Afterwards, my husband’s response was “that was clear and I understood what you were saying”. I cannot express my joy enough as, the next day, he bought me a bouquet of flowers. I was so surprised as this has never happened after one of our chats. I am still a ‘work in progress’; however, this stuff works!” ML
