Do you give in to the demands of others and ignore your own needs?

Do you fail to speak up and say what you want and how you feel?

If you are answering ‘yes,’ then you need to build your assertiveness!

Yet, there is help at hand. Assertiveness can be learned

This assertiveness training will help understand that it’s okay to say no and express your feelings even when they are unpopular.

After all, being less anxious and more able to speak up with confidence plays a vital role in who you are while safeguarding your mental wellbeing.

This training (using CBT and Positive Psychology) explores the role of assertiveness in life and work and introduces techniques to help achieve a delicate balance that avoids both passivity and aggression.

Being assertive is when you are prepared to stand up for your opinions when someone else wants a different outcome.

The course begins by understanding why you are not standing up for yourself, what you want, and what you believe:

• Is it to fit in or because you are unsure of your worth?
• Are you unclear on how to assert yourself?
• Are you failing to voice concerns because you don’t want to rock the boat or be disliked?

Your needs, wants, views, and wishes are important !!

Being less anxious and more confident will improve your mental wellbeing, build your dreams, and lead the life you want.

After all, assertiveness, especially in challenging environments, has many benefits, including:

• Increasing self-confidence, self-love, and self-respect
• Building effective communication during conflict or confrontation
• Earning respect from peers
• Enabling you to get what you need without trampling on others
• Improving decision making comes from increased confidence
• Becoming a better negotiator
• Helping you become a better leader
• Improving relationships with your colleagues

When you are successful at being assertive you stand up for your own best interests without denying the rights of others.

After all, you are being challenged daily to deal with a wide variety of situations in your lives

Using CBT(cognitive behavioral therapy)-based techniques you will learn how your beliefs affect how you approach life and how to replace unhelpful ones to make you more assertive.

This course helps you to achieve a balance where you can make yourself heard, and achieve your aims even when they are not fully aligned with others.

And yet, the outcome will leave neither party compromised and be in everyone’s overall interests.

Improving your assertiveness improves mental wellbeing, potentially:

• Reducing and gaining control over anxiety

What you learn will help you focus on the techniques and opportunities available for growth, build the skills required for assertive communication, and achieve a delicate balance that avoids being too passive or aggressive.
