**Reminder: next workshop begins Feb. 11 in Nevada County**

I’ve been considering different formats for the workshops, for example, one 6-hour session instead of three 2-hour sessions. The “pros” of doing a 1-day is that it might be an easier time commitment for some people. It would also be easier for me to offer a 1-day workshop in other cities.

The “cons”, however, are still outweighing the pros. For significant change to happen, small bites over a long period of time are far superior to one big bite. When presented with a lot of new info, we can only take in so much and then we hit a saturation point after which not much else can enter. That point for most people is far less than 6 hours.

It’s also easy to get caught up in the subject being presented, and then forget about it soon after–you know, that life thing happens. In a series, you get engrossed in the subject. Then you go home, process and practice what you learned, and then maybe you forget about it. But when you come back a week later, you get engrossed again. The new info builds on your experience of it during the week. It sinks in deeper.

So until I get a brilliant idea about how else to structure them (suggestions welcome!), I’m sticking with the weekly series format.
