Living with an Outward Mindset

  • The Salem Family YMCA Capitol Room 685 Court Street NE Salem, OR, 97301 United States (map)

Personal and family happiness is largely a function of the health of our relationships with the key people in our lives—with a partner, for example, or with parents, children, or siblings. These relationships can be wonderfully rewarding. However, they can also bring heartache, frustration, anxiety, and anger.

In this course, participants learn how our mindsets set us up for either friction and trouble in our relationships or for connection and success. A self-focused inward mindset provokes resistance and mistrust in the people around us, while an others-inclusive outward mindset builds mutual commitment, resilience, and caring.

The Living with an Outward Mindset program equips participants with an in-depth understanding of these two mindsets—what causes them and how to change them—and with practical tools for building healthy, productive, and rewarding relationships in every aspect of their lives.

The session is a one-day, interactive course punctuated by videos, individual and group exercises, one-on-one sharing, and application of the tools to the individual situations and challenges participants are facing.
