It is worth researching the benefits of your Omega 3 index levels being in the optimum range of between 8 and 12.
Time for my 6 monthly check on my Omega 3 blood index levels.
Blood taken by me through simple finger prick test and I should get results in 1-2 weeks.
Putting my money where my mouth is regarding the importance of Omega 3 levels and especially brain performance and resilience..

A nice lesson in Stranraer today and my student has her first reverse park at the roadside (reverse parallel park).
She picked it up quickly but had doubts about completing it in a smaller space.
After some extra support the first time to understand the reverse camera and sensors she managed this herself.
Great effort into a space just about 1 1/3 times length of the car.
Do you want more confidence with your parking?

Another excellent 1st time AUTOMATIC driving test pass this morning, this time at Castle Douglas for Charla Riches from Annan, passing with only 1 fault.

Then we get the results with students who are go, go, go with minds racing!
This morning we are delighted to see an amazing 1st time ZERO fault pass in Dumfries for Katie Watson with us in our AUTOMATIC car.

Well done Katie you have worked so well to achieve this result and had a few instructors before who couldn't quite teach the way you learned.

Great to see you embrace our modern holistic coaching approach, where you researched and took on board the idea of very high dose omega 3's, MCT oil and more recently, TFT (tapping) and breathing exercises.

It has been a great team effort from instructors Keith and Brian.
We should also mention the 'Shut The Up' mantra that Katie used frequently to quieten her inner thoughts worked a treat and reframing her feelings associated with her errors or faults worked to complete her transformation too.
Well done again Katie, you brought a breath of fresh air to your lessons - safe driving.
Are you looking for lessons with a different approach?

An excellent driving lesson this morning for a student.
A chat reflecting on her last lesson and planning what she is going to work on today.
We also discuss that she is going to be getting some private practice with her mum and will be going to see some horses as part of the drive with her mum and she hasn't been driving to there before and is feeling a little nervous.
Discussion surrounding the Goals for Driver Education (GDE Matrix)
Control of the car
The road environment
The reason for the journey
And what feelings and emotions may be present......
and off we go out of town to do that journey and see the horses.
