Organizational Success
Whether as a keynote speaker, coach, or as leader of a training, my goal is to inspire healthy sustainability within individuals and organizations ~ at all levels. I am speaking of how to gain long-term freedom from the emotions and thinking that can sabotage success and health – both individually and organizationally.
STRESS in THE WORKPLACE
In the 1990′s the U.S. lost nearly 6.5 million days of work due to stress. Today, the stress factors are even higher. The stress emotions like anxiety, frustration, fear, depression, can be dissolved. When they are let go of, the body can return to healthier functioning, blood pressure can decrease to healthy levels and one can experience a clarity of mind,clearer communication, improved problem-solving, and creativity. The Sedona Method is the “how to” of letting go used by companies and hundreds of thousands of individuals worldwide.

- Effectiveness Survery Results from trainings for employees and management.
- Harvard Medical School Effectiveness Study on Stress Management with The Sedona Method.
The following material points to how The Sedona Method can:
- Improve Executive Performance
- Increase opportunity awareness
- Improve intra-team communication
- Reduce physical and emotional stress
- Improve reasoning, creativity and problem solving.
- Strengthen long-term client relationships
- Help all personnel be more calm and productive.
- Guide leadership to more effectively inspire collaboration – and thus success.

The Harvard Medical School Study Validates Effectiveness of The Sedona Method
Synopsis: “The Sedona Method is an outstanding technique for its simplicity, efficiency, absence of questionable concepts and rapidity of observable results…including significant reduction in heart rate and diastolic blood pressure.”
Research on the Sedona Method was conducted by Dr Richard J. Davidson of New York State University in collaboration with Dr David C. McClelland of Harvard University. Dr Davidson has been associated with some of the best research in the field of stress reduction, and Dr. McClelland is an internationally known authority.
The Details
The testing involved three groups, each consisting of 20 persons. Group #1 was taught the Sedona Method. Group #2 was taught Progressive Relaxation (a technique for tensing and relaxing muscles, and well-accepted as a tool for stress reduction). Group #3, the Control Group, was comprised of people who were interested in a stress-reduction technique, but did not receive any training.
All subjects were shown a film of several gory industrial accidents on three separate occasions: once before the training, again two weeks post-training, and one last time 3 ½ months post-training. Various physiologic measurements were made during the film and immediately afterwards. Here is what they discovered:
The Results
Heart rate: The Progressive Relaxation group had a 100% improvement in heart rate over the Control group during the third viewing. The Sedona group showed a 360% improvement over the Control group.
Blood pressure: The diastolic component of blood pressure is the second of the two blood pressure readings, and is considered to be the more significant measurement. A comparison between the final diastolic measurement after the third viewing and the first showed that the Control group had a 2% increase. The Progressive Relaxation group had a 3% reduction in diastolic blood pressure, while the Sedona group had an amazing 10% reduction.
Muscle tension: Muscle tension during the third viewing of the stressful film showed that the Control group’s muscle tension was reduced by 14% whereas the Progressive Relaxation group showed a 28% reduction, and the Sedona group showed a 26% reduction in muscle tension. Even though the Sedona Method is not aimed at muscle tension (it is a mental technique) it had almost as great a reduction in muscle tension (only 2 percentage points difference) as the Progressive Relaxation group.
Conclusion
“The Sedona Method is an outstanding technique for its simplicity, efficiency, absence of questionable concepts and rapidity of observable results…including significant reduction in heart rate and diastolic blood pressure.”
