Lifting yourself out of negativity...

November is a particularly difficult month in the northern hemisphere, and after doing the September Blues lectures with this instructor as part of his Art Therapy Course (absolutely brilliant course, highly recommended!), I was delighted that he chose to do a November Blues stand alone course. And for those who were not lucky enough to do the September Blues section, several of those lectures are included here, so you get even more for the price of one course. November Blues offers short daily lectures with various exercises designed to generally improve one’s life and stay more positive in these difficult times. While the first few lectures start a bit slow, the course finds its focus by the 3rd day and is really well paced and full of really great information, thoughtful lectures and valuable insights. While most lectures contain easily actionable content aimed at a general audience (health habits, social media), of course not everything in every lecture will be applicable to everyone’s situation all of the time (for example, one deals with getting more money by negotiating a raise). However, that same lecture gives tips on how to make yourself valuable in a company and how to raise your worth so to speak, skills which could easily be transferred to other situations. So do not skip lectures! And do the activities and exercises proposed, and participate in the Q&A section, you will benefit immensely. As for the instructor, I have completed a few of his courses and am enrolled in a few others (His December Blues is absolutely fantastic!) and have found him to be really excellent all around. He is knowledgeable and unfailingly supports his work with up to date scientific articles, which he meticulously references. He is also a skilled lecturer, and uses humour and current events to convey his points, making the lectures entertaining as well as informative. This is another worthy offering from a top-notch instructor

I misread the star definition and meant to rate the course average. I am now rating the course 3 stars. The instructor was well-prepared and exerted much effort into producing a great course. However, overall, I was not compelled to get on to the next lesson. It did not cheer me up most days, but other students might quite enjoy it. It's a subjective experience and the instructor brings great passion and zeal to his courses.
