Need to know more about the Breakthrough Group?

Is Breakthrough calling to you?

If you’ve got this far, I would suggest either you are ready for Breakthrough, or Breakthrough is calling to you in some way.

This is important. Either you will listen to this calling and follow through on it. Or it will become a good idea that you will never act on.

So what is holding you back from booking your place?

It may be just a matter of timing. But you know you will do the course as soon as you possibly can. Let us know through the form below that you intend to do the course, and we’ll keep you in the loop.

Or, it may be because you’re not sure quite what’s entailed. And you don’t want to commit yourself to something that might turn out to be a waste of time and money.

Or, you just want to know more about the process and if it’s the right course for you?

If you’re quiet, shy or introverted it is natural that you are hesitating before taking your next step?

Need more information?

Here are some questions and concerns that many people have when they’re thinking about joining the Breakthrough Group.

If you don’t find an answer here, take a look in our Support Section where we have more detailed information. We have answers to most questions.

Maybe you’ve been in counselling or therapy or other kinds of group therapy and not got anywhere. Or you’ve tried other approaches. And you don’t want to repeat that experience.

There are many people who take part in the Breakthrough Group who have had this experience and are amazed at how very different the course is. And how quickly they get unstuck.

See if this information helps you understand why the Sunflower Effect Courses are so different and why they work so well.

You may not have seen Stefan and Donna’s accounts of all the things they tried before discovering the Sunflower Effect. Click on the + sign to see their stories.

Or, join the next Introductory Evening. A very good way of finding out if the course will work for you.

There is a classic format to every session. You will start seated in a circle where we do relaxation exercises and where you’ll receive gentle support for any challenges you’ve been facing.

This is followed by a series of creative exercises based on the principles of the Sunflower Effect enabling your to connect with your natural instincts, expand your comfort zone, discharge repressed emotions and break old habits of behaviour.

You will be discovering more assertive ways of behaving through the drama-based exercises, which will naturally build your confidence. This is often the highlight of the session and just a little bit terrifying. But with the support of the group, you will gradually find yourself doing and saying things you never thought were possible.

The Breakthrough Process

You will also have the opportunity to participate in the Breakthrough Process. This will enable you to transform the unconscious patterns that are holding you back and have kept you stuck in old roles and modes of behaviour.

This process alone has been life-changing for so many people – in fact, one participant said he made more progress in this one hour process than in 30 years of talking therapy.

Most people walk into the first session of the Breakthrough Group with all their hopes, doubts, fears, anxieties, and uncertainties. And walk out at the end of the course having made a profound shift in their confidence, and self-esteem. Most don’t believe this would be possible when they started the course.

Here is a more detailed description of what usually happens in a typical session

Most people who book the Breakthrough Group come because they want to improve their confidence, set themselves free from shyness and self-consciousness, or want to have more fun in life.

Others become because they want to improve their career prospects, and because they feel they feel held back in their jobs

There is a wonderfully motivated and supportive group of people who are drawn to these courses. 

This is the one thing that most people say afterwards, is what enabled them to make so much progress. It’s the other people who deeply understand what it’s like to be shy, anxious or self-conscious. They are all rooting for you and you are rooting for them.

You’ll find more detailed information about the kind of people who are attracted to the Sunflower Effect Courses here.

If shyness, self-consciousness or social anxiety is on your radar, then the course is going to be a good fit for you. We suggest you look at this article:

We also provide this guidance to help you choose the right course in our support section.

Many people attend the Introductory Evening to get an idea of what to expect.

Or you can write to us (see the contact form below) or set up a free 15-minute call.

Most people are very surprised at what they get out of the Breakthrough Group.

For the majority of people, the course far exceeds their expectations. And worth every penny. Most would expect to have paid double to achieve such results. Particularly when many other approaches that cost a lot more, don’t work.

Many of the benefits of the course are things they didn’t even realise were important to them.

This may be having a lot more fun, getting promotions or jobs they didn’t expect to get. Or doing many things that were before impossible for them – and have made a dramatic difference to the quality of their lives.

You can also see what participants say on the Breakthrough Group page about the course. This will give you an idea of what you might get out of it.

To a certain extent, what you will get out of the Breakthrough Group depends on what you put in.

The people who really challenge themselves whilst they are doing the course, classically make faster progress. This is the power of commitment. It’s one of the most powerful confidence builders out there.

You will receive support and encouragement to move through the blocks to your confidence with gentleness and compassion for yourself.

People who have read my book From Wallflower to Sunflower, tend to get a lot more out of the course because they really understand how the course works and how to avoid the pitfalls.

What you will get out of the course, will also depend to a certain extent on the mental health aspect of the issues you start with. This may mean that your progress will be slower and you will may want to do more than one course.

Do reach out if you need some help.

I sympathise. I was stuck for many years. I just didn’t know how to get unstuck. When it happened it was easy. I was amazed how easy it was.

If you’re stuck, you need to move.

Stuckness is the result of not moving, of becoming stagnant.

This is what the course will support you with.

If it is unfamiliar to you to move play or create, it will feel uncomfortable at first. But persist and this could be a breakthrough in its own right. Hard as it is to believe that whilst having fun, you can shift major patterns. But it’s true.

Also, the process is not therapy but personal growth work. We won’t be dwelling on problems, we’ll be taking action. And that creates a very different atmosphere and mindset.

There are many people who take part in the Breakthrough Group (and my other courses) who are amazed at how very different the course is from other things they’ve tried.

And how quickly they get unstuck. This is because the solution is not to be found in your head.

Are you getting in your own way? See if this article helps you to understand how you are unconsciously blocking your progress, and how you can get unblocked.

I sympathise. When I started on my confidence journey, having enough money to do the things I wanted to do was a real problem.

I was also very terrified of spending the money I did have, in case I ended up with no money at all. This never actually happened.

When I started investing in myself through participating in personal development courses, was the point at which my life really started to change. I realised that if I was going to move forward in life, I needed to change.

Then I made my primary objective to invest in personal development work. Because it paid off. As I grew in confidence as a result of these courses, so much began to open up for me in all areas of my life. Socially, financially, relationships and most especially in my career.

Participants who take that leap, find that opportunities come their way. It could be a promotion, a new career pathway, a windfall that they weren’t expecting, or getting a job that previously they were never in the running for. The course generally leads to people improving their financial situation. When they are no longer hampered by shyness or self-consciousness, all sorts of other avenues open up as result of their growing confidence.

Our policy is to keep the courses affordable, as many people who need these courses are often in low-paying jobs. Most confidence courses are a lot more expensive than the Sunflower Effect Courses, and fail to deliver the results that our courses deliver.

You can pay by instalments to make it easy to pay for the course. Some people get their workplace to pay for them. Or help comes forward from other sources: family, or friends. Or once they’ve made the decision to do the course, unexpected funds come their way.

Do get in touch through the form below if you need some help.

The No Moves Money-back Guarantee

As an extra insurance policy if you’re concerned about wasting your money, we offer the NO MOVES money-back guarantee because we know how effective the Sunflower Effect Courses are.

It is unheard of for participants to come away dissatisfied. They come away amazed at what they have been able to achieve and so pleased they took a risk and did the course.

However to give you peace of mind, if you attend 10 out of the 12 sessions of the Breakthrough Group, and find you have gained nothing from the experience, then we will refund your money. See our conditions.

Feeling ready to book?

We are delighted to hear. Just return to the Breakthrough Group web page where you can book online for the course.

Not yet ready to book?

See if this information is useful to you until it’s possible for you to join the course.

Do you have a tendency to put off getting started to make changes to your life?

This is not a comfortable place to be. And is experienced by many of our participants before they join the Breakthrough Group.

It is also a pattern of behaviour that you are probably trapped in.

In the course, we talk about the “Belly of the Whale” which comes from the biblical story of Jonah and the Whale.

This is a place of stuckness that can hamper your progress for decades, if you let it.

Stuck in the Belly of the Whale by Annie Lucas

You will get to work on this pattern in the Breakthrough Group.

In this article, we help you to look at how you might be blocking your progress and how you can start unblocking it. I hope you find it helpful.
