Two-Day Hoffman Essentials Resources

The Hoffman Essentials

Welcome to your Hoffman Essentials Resources page

You have been sent this link because you have signed up to our two-day Hoffman Essentials workshop. You might want to bookmark this page, because it’s where you’ll find everything you’re going to need to be fully prepared for your Hoffman weekend.


number oneThe first step is to complete our online pre-course work form, by the date mentioned in your email. The pre-course work form will take about half an hour to complete. We’ll be asking you to upload a (digital) photo of yourself, so please save one somewhere handy on your system before you start. (The photo will be used by us to verify your identity when you log in on Saturday morning).

The information you give us will be read by your course facilitators.  Please be as open as you can as what you write will give them an insight into your current circumstances, and your reasons for attending the workshop. It should also help you to identify the issues you would like to focus on during the workshop, and enable you to approach it from an authentic space of self-reflection.


number twoOnce we have received your pre-course work, we will pass it to the facilitators and we will contact you if we have any questions. If you have requested a brief pre-course call, this will take place in the week leading up to your Essentials weekend. We will use the phone number you have supplied, so please make sure you enter your contact details and your availability on the form.


number threeThe next step is to read our suggestions for creating a supportive environment for your virtual experience. This is practical information that will help you to get the most from the weekend, so please give this your attention in advance of your start date.

You’ll be sent the link to your course workbook nearer to the course date. Please download this once you receive the link and save it somewhere handy on your desktop, or (ideally) print a copy to have with you over the weekend (this doesn’t have to be in colour). You’ll also need some spare paper and pens to hand for some of the exercises.

In the sidebar of this page you will find all the documents and resources you need to prepare for the workshop, and links to a couple of treats that we hope you’ll enjoy: a short animation from the Hoffman Institute USA and an extract from the Hoffman book ‘You Can Change Your Life’ by Tim Laurence.


Confidentiality
