Stress is, in biology, the set of reactions of an organism subjected to pressures or constraints of the environment. Anxiety is a mental and physical malaise, born from the feeling of the imminence of a danger, characterized by a diffuse fear which can go as far as panic. While anxiety is a one-time emotion & often occurs as a fit, whereas anxiety can be more chronic in nature.

All three are not necessarily signs of weakness and without being a choice, they affect many people to varying intensities. Not ignoring your pain and being accompanied to find coping strategies is vital.

These workshops offer you to learn to listen, tame, manage and control your emotions, stress, anxiety and anxiety.

The objectives are clear, with always practical applications:
- Discover your own emotional process to understand the role and impact of emotions
- Analyze its operations and implement (concrete) strategies & clear techniques to channel them
- Develop your emotional awareness to strengthen your balance / harmony / self-confidence as well as the best discovery & control of your own resources / skills / potential as well as new tools
- Overcome your fears and blockages to be able to move forward and calmly
- Reduce the psychological / psycho-somatic manifestations of his emotions
- Optimize the emotional process thanks to the concept of emotional intelligence
- Make your sensitivity & possible hypersensitivity a strength

Indeed, the sensitive & hypersensitive represent a small part of the population and are able to perceive what others do not feel, which is hidden but try to conform to what is expected of them and of them. '' be able to live in community. After appropriate support, a hypersensitive can learn to tame their innate abilities

What happens during a session ?

After having defined together one or more global objectives based on your initial problem, each session takes place in two stages.

1) Browse, analyze & dissect together the reflections, thoughts and notes taken during the week and related to your emotions: actions taken based on the suggestions of the previous week; thoughts; feelings: what worked or not / corresponded or not to your expectations. It is also an opportunity to get to know you better in order to better define / define / identify and then solve together the challenges / emotional blockages of the moment.

2) Based on the conclusions of the first part, a proposal of two to three sub-issues of the day to be dealt with during the session (sub-issues built from your initial issue): to answer them, for each of them 'between them, a series of ten to fifteen pragmatic reflections / actions will be proposed to you. Three possible answers:
- "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion
- “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session

Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

According to the defined objective, it is a question of identifying & resolving the impact of emotions and their bad channeling not only on his communication but especially on his daily life.

► Learn to know your intimate and sexual desires, deepen them, assume them and perceive their meaning, while being aware of your own limits and those of your partner, understand your blockages in order to overcome them, take advantage of the approach socio-cognitive of sexual desire, better integrate the functioning of one's partner, integrate tools / techniques / methods / know-how / key phrases to take pleasure while leaving it to spontaneity & naturalness, improve the link between affectivity and sexual intimacy but also communication with your partner, play (...): these are examples of the objectives of these personalized sessions, in order to ultimately improve your intimate and sexual satisfaction, accompanied by a mediator specialized.

➤ Together, step by step, it's about getting to know each other better (through your past experience, what you like or appreciate the least about yourself / about the other), by analyzing situations in a thorough and pragmatic way. Indeed, this step is essential in order not to orient towards / "tackle" a pre-established model, but to adapt to each situation.

➤ In parallel, from the first session, once the key points are better understood / assimilated, and the objectives gradually defined, tackle, based on your daily life / your experience, the art of sexuality and its subtleties, while valuing the complexity of sexuality and not its complications.

► My mission: to help you understand, analyze, discover and discover yourself to better enjoy yourself, while gaining self-confidence & acting in order to no longer be limited by your beliefs.

➤ If the discretion and confidentiality of the coach are essential, it is therefore a question of offering a tailor-made program / training, following an initial 'diagnosis'.

► These sessions can, for example, deal with how to regain confidence and make you reconnect with a complex but not complicated, subtle but not tangled sexuality, in short fulfilled while understanding the key elements of your own psychology and that of your partner (... ). But also how to strengthen your sexual charisma to unlock your potential and take pleasure.

➤ Objective here again: to introduce concrete techniques / methods which make it possible to communicate easily, in a fluid, efficient and always natural way, while mastering situations.

➤ Non-verbal language, sexualization and avoidance of the friend zone (...): the objective being to demystify these themes in theory and in practice.

➤ Coaching is based on precise questioning techniques, helping the person being supported to find a solution to a problem. At the end of each session, the coachee will master new ways of thinking, actions to accomplish and will have better motivation. Depending on the clients' expectations, the coach can suggest other approaches.

➤ So what do the first individual coaching sessions look like? First, a first exploratory contact during which your expectations are examined, the nature of the request and the context are evaluated, a 'diagnosis' is discussed, taking into account your difficulties, your needs, your objective.
Then, it is a question of developing a precise procedure and proposing lines of work. A relationship of trust is gradually established through a benevolent alchemy, where listening, empathy and the absence of judgment are central.

➤ Thus, after having carried out together an initial assessment of the situation, a kind of inventory, it is a question of determining the objectives to be reached, the feelings and the questions related to the situation as well as proposing actions to achieve your goal, resolve constraining situations that stand in your way, using tools that will be offered to you according to your situation to get out of your comfort zone and change your perspective.

➤ The guide then asks questions aimed at exploring solutions aimed at achieving the objective, through experiments and exercises. Through various tools (drawing, role playing, metaphor, visualization, etc.), this questioning helps to change perspective, get out of an impasse in order to explore various options that you might not have thought of. this way, based on tools and experience. For example, it could be a new way of thinking about difficulties or another approach to identifying and considering resolving conflicts or a progression in terms of personal development or in terms of a career focusing always on the development of personal resources and self-knowledge.
At the start of the next meeting, the coachee begins with a summary of the activations and the evolution of the state from the last meeting. This step makes it possible to have an evaluation of the positive points and those which are less so in order to readjust the set strategy.

➤ Concretely, ONE SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the next session in order to overcome blockages or improve self-knowledge.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

It is true that the philosopher is the friend of wisdom, but above all, he is someone who does not want to make mistakes in reasoning. Philosophizing is a way of reasoning and a way of solving problems that will never have a perfect and definitive solution. Knowing the distance between the Earth and the Moon is not a problem of philosophy, because it is enough to measure to solve it. On the other hand, knowing, for example, what justice is, is a problem of philosophy. A meter will not be able to help us know the answer. We must go about it differently, and in the courses I offer, I will teach you how.

You will learn

- text reading strategies
- case studies with the aim of learning from experts
- methodology in philosophy
- writing an essay
- writing a text commentary
- a work on the philosophers of your choice
- an overview of the history of philosophy
- the general culture necessary to be able to philosophize

I will adapt to your individual needs. Each course is tailor-made. We will analyze where your difficulties lie and together develop a course program that will make you perform as quickly as possible. The basic principle of the courses I offer is dialectics, like Plato's dialogues: reflecting together, making theoretical contributions, asking questions and seeking answers, and testing the validity of reasoning.

For the past 10 years, I have been teaching German using the philosophy methodology, having studied philosophy at the Master's level at Aix-Marseille University. It turns out that the analytical mind is very useful even outside the confines of philosophy. Today, there are even fields of activity such as management with philosophy or philotherapy. In recent years, some German students have asked me to also teach them philosophy courses, and that is why I decided to offer philosophy courses directly.

I look forward to meeting you during a first lesson.

I aim to offer a safe space for people who want to learn English, but on a slightly deeper level. My passion is psychology, human behaviour, and recently Geo Politics.

I have many students who are learning in a very standard way, however, I want to offer a slightly more in depth English class, almost like therapy but in English. Although I am not a trained therapist, my students always feel very drawn to me.

I have had 9 years of intense therapy myself and a troubled childhood, so my aim is not to advise, but to help by listening. Having a conversation, around more perhaps, intimate or troubling topics.

In primary and secondary school, I had many friends who struggled with specific subjects, which I didn't. It also happened the other way around. It was great to be able to help each other with this. When that wasn't possible, we received tutoring from a great coach, and this helped us all pass our exams.

School can be frustrating, overwhelming, and overwhelming. Having the right person to help you through this and provide guidance can reduce a lot of stress. Besides tutoring, I'm also a Psychology student and could help with planning, fear of failure, ADD/ADHD, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us!

This course provides a comprehensive understanding of human physiology through an integrated, systems-based approach that connects cellular mechanisms to whole-body function. It focuses on how organ systems maintain homeostasis, adapt to physiological stress, and interact dynamically to support normal health.

Core topics include membrane transport, electrophysiology, and cellular signaling, followed by detailed exploration of the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, endocrine, and nervous systems. Emphasis is placed on regulatory mechanisms such as neural control, hormonal modulation, feedback loops, and fluid–electrolyte balance. Students will analyze physiological responses to exercise, disease states, and environmental challenges, developing the ability to interpret functional changes rather than memorize isolated facts.

The course highlights mechanistic reasoning, enabling learners to understand how physiological principles explain clinical findings such as blood pressure regulation, acid–base balance, oxygen transport, and neurohumoral coordination. By integrating foundational science with applied examples, students gain a durable framework for advanced study in medicine, biomedical sciences, and allied health disciplines, while strengthening analytical thinking and problem-solving skills essential for clinical reasoning.

Symbolic writing
philosophy
Simplified explanations
Literary texts
Novels, poetry, and prose. Example: (1) Can we live in peace?

I am almost certain from the beginning that this question is incorrect, and on the other hand, I add with conviction that the wording of this question is wrong, since the complexity that surrounds this title, or rather the motives that lie behind the curtain, makes it difficult to fathom its depths easily.

At first glance, this article (inquiry or question) seems naive, like a question born of a little girl's innocence to her mother, like a spiritual breath that should be distributed fairly without being touched. But in reality, it is a mischievous question surrounded by many barriers, which are made by man himself. Therefore, it can be said that it seeks solutions to problems caused by the ignorance of superstitions, fanaticism, deviation, extremism, straying from the truth, evils, slipping into the abyss of religions, and so on. As for the penultimate point, it is a copy of the action and theorizing of the first suspect, as is the case since religion (its basic pillar) generally has a clear, sound, and logical goal, and its branches, most of which lie in organizing social life and contributing to its improvement, from the mothers of morality and settling disputes, inheritance, marriage, love, and enjoining good... some of which have been brought and others left for what has been revealed to us in a clear indication to us to complete the path in the best way. And here is the crux of the matter: this (thing) that is given that is likely to make peace or against it? To create conditions and means for making peace or breaking it? To decide on it or to deviate from it? So what is the matter of this peace that everyone loves morally and practically in spreading without end or limit and is not enabled! If we consider peace as a constitution with conditions, its articles and principles are the abstract moral terms by which a person acts in word and deed, in character and morals and even inwardly (intention) as it is a purity in the soul that does not need evidence seen in public or benefited from by a certain person or certain people to the exclusion of others in an indication of “selfishness” that undermines the principles of peace and affects its integrity, as we can look at the matter as the air for the lungs that has been corrupted and has crippled the work of the second.

Now, when one considers the aesthetic and fundamental aspects of peace, its point of intersection becomes clear: humanity. Ironically, the very means by which it undermines the right path is the same means by which it poses questions that supposedly underpin the ultimate goal of peace—such as, "Can we live without violence... without conflict... without animosity... without hatred... etc."—without addressing the necessary justice and reality.
