(Update)From Jerome, More About Online Class

Published: Fri, 02/13/15

Hey –

Yesterday I sent a private email about the idea of creating an online training program in stress management that I’d like to teach to you and a small group of nurses.

I don’t want to go through the trouble of creating this class if nobody wants it, so I wanted you to weigh in and tell me what you want in a product like this (or whether you want it at all!).

Please click here if you haven’t completed the survey.

Lots of people have already sent me their answers and I’m really grateful for that. Thank you!

I’ve also been getting a number of questions about content, how much it will cost, etc. The prevailing wisdom is that if one person is asking a question, then ten people are wondering the same thing.

Well, by that logic, an awful lot of people must have the same questions.

So, I figured that I’d write this email to answer a few of them. Here’s what your peers are wondering:

IS STRESS MANAGEMENT DIFFERENT FROM MEDITATION?

Yes…and no. Meditation and mindfulness can really help you to deal with stress. However, the focus of meditation isn’t necessarily to deal with stress. THIS COURSE, should you decide that you’re interested in it, will be on how to deal with stress/stress management and will use meditation along with other skills.

HOW LARGE IS A “SMALL AND INTIMATE” CLASS?

Good question. I plan on keeping the class at 10 – 20 people, max. The purpose of this class is to help to create future classes. So, I want to be able to talk with each of you to find out what you need the most and how this kind of class will be of value to you.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?

At present, I’m not sure the exact price. I do know, however, that it will be substantially less than the final product. That is, since this class is a pilot class, it will probably be 10 – 20 percent the cost of the final class that I (we) will be working to create. And…you’ll get credit for having been part of the creative process!!

Anyway, if you have any other questions, please drop me a note and let me know. And if you haven’t already weighed in about whether you’d be interested in the training program, please take a moment to let me know what you think.

Thanks so much for your time.

Take care,
