Overview
Discovery of Self training programs and seminars have applications for audiences ranging from corporate executives to youth with serious emotional/behavior challenges.
The Continuum Center has been designing project initiatives on the forefront of business, medicine, education and community development since its 1984-86 Whole Mind Learning project – a partnership with the Minnesota State Department of Education, the Humphrey Institute and First Bank Minneapolis (now US Bank). Discovery of Self is such an initiative, one that has been refined and expanded since 1987.
Drawing from fields like quantum physics, chemistry and medicine, and from cultures including West African, Native American, Asian and East Indian, the curriculum is a unique interdisciplinary, cross-cultural synthesis. Discovery of Self is designed to provide a new set of operating assumptions and inner resource development strategies that can significantly improve the course, content and quality of personal and academic/professional life…at any age.
Skill Areas
