"The Primitive Emotional Power of Alienation"
On Sunday, December 10, 2023 from 8-9 PM EST, Bill Eddy will present for us on "The Primitive Emotional Power of Alienation.
This will air exclusively on our Families Divided TV you tube channel.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0qET_H81bIcf7b55UHxhKQ
An important missing piece in understanding alienation is recognizing the primitive emotional power of alienation, which is mostly unconscious for the parent engaging in alienating behaviors. This presentation will address the three most fundamental primitive emotional powers: fear, anger, and love/loyalty. By constantly and intensely displaying these primitive emotions, especially when a child is between the ages of 9 and 13 years old, a parent can heavily influence a child’s brain without the parent or the child even realizing it. By recognizing these primitive emotions and how they influence the child, treatments for a child’s resistance or refusal may be able to start earlier and with less controversy. Key aspects of the New Ways for Families parent-child counseling sessions for both parents will be explained for overcoming mild and moderate alienation.
Bill Eddy is co-founder and chief innovation officer of High Conflict Institute. He pioneered the High Conflict Personality Theory (HCP) and is the world’s leading expert on methods for managing disputes involving people with high conflict personalities.
Bill has worked as the senior family mediator at the National Conflict Resolution Center, a certified family law specialist representing clients in family court, and a licensed clinical social worker therapist. In 2021, he received the Lifetime Achievement award from the Academy of Professional Mediators.
He serves on the faculty of the Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at the Pepperdine University School of Law in California and is a conjoint associate professor with the University of Newcastle Law School in Australia. He has delivered talks and trainings in more than 30 U.S. states and thirteen countries and is the author or co-author of 20 books. His popular blog on the Psychology Today website has more than 5 million views. He trains lawyers, judges, and mediators, and regularly consults on issues of alienation, family violence, and false allegations in family court cases.

"How the Worst Day Cycle Contributes to Alienation"
On Sunday, June 2, 2024 @ 8 PM EST, Kenny Weiss will be our guest presenter for this webinar. He will be speaking on "How the worst day cycle contributes to alienation". This will air exclusively on our you tube channel.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0qET_H81bIcf7b55UHxhKQ
At the heart of parental alienation is a little known process called The Worst Day Cycle. For centuries society has stigmatized, and science has incorrectly downplayed, the importance of emotions and parenting. Unfortunately, these factors have resulted in humans developing an emotionally self-destructive survival process to absorb the childhood injuries we all experience from perfectly imperfect caregivers. I call this process The Worst Day Cycle. For humans to survive, we must form physical and emotional bonds with other humans. Still, because of a lack of education about how to do this lovingly, we all experience emotional pain and injuries from our caregivers. We are human, and we make mistakes. Our parents did, too. Since science and society have held us back from evolving emotionally and as parents, the best we can do as a child in those moments is to relinquish our inherent power and authentic self. As a result, we develop a shame-based subconscious compulsion to repeat that unhealed hurt from childhood in our adult relationships. This process plays a major role in how alienation develops. Therefore, it is vital that we learn about it and begin the journey to healing from The Worst Day Cycle if we want to reunite with our alienated child or grandchild.
Kenny is an advocate for truth, healing, and personal responsibility! As an author, speaker, coach, teacher, and healer, Kenny specializes in helping individuals and couples heal their emotional hurts and pain from the past to reclaim their authentic selves and become the greatest version of themselves. He accomplishes this through the use of his one-of-a-kind, transformative emotional mastery method. Kenny has a unique ability to see what everyone else has missed— imparting immediate deep wisdom which generates innovative, transformative solutions that achieve rapid results while allowing each individual to pursue their healing journey at their own pace and without judgment. He accomplishes this through one-on-one appointments, his online masterclasses, his perfectly imperfect private group, his book Your Journey To Success, His Youtube channel, His podcast Heal The hurt, and his Best Days Blog which can all be found on his website, kennyweiss.net
