“An incredibly engaging seminar with helpful tools and strategies that can be used in everyday life to relieve stress
and improve well-being.”

Dassault Systemes, Cork

“We had the pleasure of Motus giving a talk on parenting mental health. It focused on the three key areas of cognitive behavioural therapy, responsible decision-making explained through neuroscience, and the links between mindfulness and anxiety. We invited all Dutch Microsoft employees and it was one of our most visited sessions on our Mental Health week. There were lots of questions from the audience and the feedback was very positive. I would definitely recommend working with Motus. It was a real pleasure.”
