An interactive transformational creativity workshop ( 2 hours or full day)
How do we transcend a past of pain, loss and suffering? What new empowering choices can we make in the present? How can we turn the burden of the past into a gift for the future? How can we smile through it all?
These questions and more are addressed through Naava’s supportive, fun-filled and healing dynamics of interactive drama, improvisation exercises, props, stories, and movement. New ways of expressing and embracing the past are explored. In this experiential creativity workshop, Naava shares her spiritual journey of discovering her family's past, inspiring participants to transform their related heritage into meaningful gifts for today and the future. Participants are encouraged to wear comfortable clothes and bring significant, cherished items of relevance (old photographs, candlesticks, stories, book, etc.) to the workshop.
MOVING ON, MOVING UP! From Outer Conflict to Inner Peace How to have breakthroughs in the breakdown lane of your breakup! ( 2 hours or full day)
Does Holding On to Past Grievances Hold you Back? Does your attachment to negative emotions like anger, hurt and resentment interfere with present happiness and future freedom? Do you equate forgiveness with giving up or giving in? How can you go from Victim to Victor in less than 2 hours?
Entertaining and thought provoking, this experiential workshop examines and explains the SET UP of our UPSET that keeps us trapped in negative emotions, impeding our progress. Through fun exercises, improvisation and shared discussion, participants learn to get real, letting go of past pains to live a fulfilled and satisfying life NOW. Sharing personal anecdotes from her own spiritual journey and lessons learned from enduring a lengthy divorce related battle, Naava explodes common myths and mistakes that keep us in breakdown mode. Using accelerated interactive learning techniques, effective reframing processes and creative motivational props, Naava helps people quickly root out blocks, understand their relationship obstacles and move forward with ease, grace and freedom.
Learning more about FORGIVENESS and STORIES, participants explore ways to:
· MANAGE THE CHAOS, and RELEASE THE FEAR · REMOVE BLOCKS that stop positive energy— and RESTORE ORDER · RecognizE, releasE and REVISION negative thoughts and patterns · LEAD A MORE PRODUCTIVE, SUCCESSFUL and SATISFYING LIFE. (This workshop is popular for spiritually based organizations as well. )
STAND UP, SPEAK OUT! FOR STUDENTS Tolerance Awareness Program (one hour or 2 hours)
Concerned with the issues of alienation, fragile self-esteem, disrespect and disconnection as experienced by schoolchildren today, Naava explores the power of communication and confident self-expression to promote tolerance instead of prejudice.
In combination with a special presentation of excerpts from “Better Don’t Talk! “, Naava delivers a powerful message to students about the nature of speech and its effects on people’s lives. Through creative and fun interactive exercises, storytelling and creative writing, Naava guides young people to explore the reasons for and motivations behind communication, both negative and positive. Students learn how to · Acknowledge, confront and overcome “negative talk” - · Deal with hurtful and careless speech, teasing, namecalling and badmouthing, · Confront signs of prejudice. · Speak up for themselves with confidence
As students explore ways of claiming their voice in standing up for tolerance, respect and empowerment, they learn the art of restorying towards healing, and the importance of making responsible choices. Through games and play, the students experience the power of the spoken word.

A conversation with Naava is like fireworks of clarification and inspiration. Adrienne Pelton, CA
Naava is a vibrant and dynamic woman. An inspiration to many, and a woman who challenges others to reach their own goals. We had her MOVING ON, MOVING UP! workshop for our group in Union City, NJ.
The one hour workshop session changed the women in that room for a lifetime. I was blown away with her work! Her manner was patient, and she communicated easily with inspirational words to various women of social and ethnic backgrounds. “Let go of the past, move on and move up!! Be a headline in the Victory Paper not the Victim Gazette!”, I recall her saying. I was inspired by Naava, and excited about sharing the success of the “Moving On, Moving Up” workshop with others.
