Managing Emotional Reactivity: Tiny Shifts for Lasting Change
Join clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Elisha Goldstein for an interactive workshop exploring how small, repeatable shifts can help transform emotional reactivity. Experience the 4R Method, hear participant reflections and bring your questions to the live Q&A.

Lasting change does not require dramatic transformation. Small emotional shifts, practiced consistently, can reshape habitual patterns, strengthen resilience and support long-term emotional and physical well-being.
In this neuroscience-informed workshop, Elisha introduces the 4R Method: Recognize, Release, Refocus and Reinforce. You will learn a practical way to notice emotional activation, create space around automatic reactions and reconnect with greater perspective, curiosity and choice.
Your registration also includes a three-part on-demand Learning & Practice Series, a Practical Facilitation Guide, professional transcripts and a Certificate of Completion. Direct purchasers receive permanent access; members retain access while subscribed.
In this workshop, you will:
- Recognize the emotional loops, nervous-system reactions and habitual patterns underlying stress and reactivity.
- Experience the 4R Method—Recognize, Release, Refocus and Reinforce—with a familiar emotional trigger or reactive pattern.
- Apply the method to moments of overwhelm, defensiveness, self-criticism and relational stress—including within your work with clients.
Who this workshop is for
- Helping professionals seeking a practical method they can use personally and adapt in their work with clients.
- Individuals who want to respond to stress, emotional triggers and relationship challenges with greater awareness and choice.
No previous mindfulness experience is required.
