Join us for Search Inside Yourself in Berkeley!

Join the emerging movement of companies integrating evidence-based mindfulness in their workplaces.

Emotional Intelligence

Workplace studies prove that emotional competencies enhance performance, leadership effectiveness, and wellbeing.

Neuroscience

Attention is the fundamental energy of the mind. How we direct our attention determines the mental habits we form, the emotions we develop, and the results we experience.

Mindfulness

Research shows that mindfulness is a foundational skill that underpins the inner factors of growth: self-awareness, self-management, and emotional skills.

This transformational experience begins with a 2-day program followed by a 4-week online journey, concluding with a webinar as we explore mindfulness and emotional intelligence for inspiring wellbeing, collaboration and high performance.

What Participants Say

"This is the best course I have EVER attended. Never before I have been able to sit for two whole days and be fully engrossed in every second. I will tell people that if they are wanting to transform their lives then they MUST attend this course."

"SIY changed the way I deal with challenges. I actually remain calm in stressful situations, and colleagues look to me to find workable solutions to problems."

"Inspiring. Cutting edge. What the new world of leadership look like."

"I like how SIY makes mindfulness practices very accessible to people. There's a very strong hesitation, unwillingness, fear that comes up when you think about sitting down and trying some of these tools. The experience you get in the workshop dissipates that so you are able to take it with you. What these tools really do is increase self-awareness. When you become more self-aware you become more tolerant and more compassionate, and it leads to better relationships with family, friends, and in the workplace"

I’ve already attended SIY. What should I do now?

If you’re interested in building on what you learned, we encourage you to join another one of our programs, such as Adaptive Resilience and Effective Teaming. All of our programs share the common threads of mindfulness, neuroscience and emotional intelligence and teach different practices based on the subject matter.

I know that SIY has been accredited by the International Coach Federation (ICF). How do I obtain Continuing Coaching Education (CCE) credits for SIY?

What happens if a program is cancelled?

We recognize that there is additional uncertainty for in-person programming in these current times.

If the program is cancelled you will be able to choose between transferring your registration to an upcoming SIY Online program, attending a future in-person program if available, or receiving a full refund.

SIYLI is unable to reimburse you for any costs you may have incurred associated with program attendance, such as accommodation and transport costs.

How are you addressing COIVD-19 for this in-person program?

Safety and health are of the utmost importance to us and are crucial considerations when planning our in-person programs. We recognize that many participants are both excited by and concerned about in-person events given our current global situation.

For all of our in-person programs, we will be adhering to local guidelines given that the situation in each location is unique and ever-changing. While we wish we could share exactly what our protocols will be, we won't know in full detail until a few weeks before the program starts. This gives us the flexibility to ensure our programs and choices are aligned with the most up-to-date local guidelines, policies and protocols.

You will receive an email 3-4 weeks before your in-person program outlining what to expect with regards to the COVID-19 precautions we will be taking and what we will be asking you to do to help us create a safe event. You will also receive information in that email about how to follow-up with us if you are not comfortable attending given the COVID-19 guidelines and numbers.

In the unfortunate case the program needs to be cancelled due to COVID-19, we will provide you a full refund for your ticket.
We appreciate your patience and understanding in advance and look forward to gathering with you safely in person again!

If you have any additional questions or concerns, please reach out to [email protected].
