AMERICAN YOUTH: RUNNING ON EMPTY - There are four primitive urges which are built into every human being and are the
sources of all negative emotions, and quite literally all of people's stress. If these urges are well regulated a natural balance, harmony and
peace are experienced. In the last few decades these urges (hunger, sex, sleep, and self-preservation) have been exploited by the media and
have undergone radical unregulated changes. This has put our youth at greater risk for mental/emotional problems including anxiety,
misplaced aggression, and creating a purposeless malaise which increases the risk of depression and suicide. Retired Psychologist Jim
Nelson will examine the roots of this malaise, and examine practical changes necessary to counter this dangerous trend. Jim Nelson
11:30-12:30 Lunch Break
12:30-2:30 Session II Workshops
DRAMARIFIC TEENS - Adolescents who use emotional and behavioral drama to their advantage are some of the more frustrating and
misunderstood kids seen in clinical practices. Via an interactive and dynamic presentation, this workshop will explain what drama truly
represents and describe how it develops. Fun and useful clinical strategies will be discussed. Participants will leave with the understanding
of how to enjoy the unique characteristics that dramarific teenagers truly represent. Jennifer Dynes
