What we do…

Changing isn’t easy. That’s why we do all we can to make it easier – and fun!

Have you ever wanted to change something that you do (or don’t do) and been amazed at how effectively you sabotage your own best efforts?

Changing isn’t easy. That’s why we do all we can to make it easier – and fun!

Have you ever wanted to change something that you do (or don’t do) and been amazed at how effectively you sabotage your own best efforts?

Everyday, all over the world, people decide to make changes that they know will make them healthier and happier.

They understand what’s good for them. After all, there is plenty of advice out there about the things we should and shouldn’t be doing.

Yet, change can feel hard, and the old habits continue.

At NISAD, we ask ‘Why’?

We’re really interested in why it can feel so hard to change our habits and behaviours. And we know that for each person the reason is different.

In most cases, it will stem from an internal dichotomy. A dichotomy can be felt when a part of us wants one thing and another part of us wants something quite different.

NISAD research and develop engaging and effective ways for people to navigate their unhelpful dichotomies. The support we will then provide – through our upcoming ELK.Health programmes and clinics – is responsive and customisable.

And, more importantly, lots of fun. The secret of successful behaviour change is to make the process lots of fun.

Story-based clinical methodology underpins what we do. The Lund Initiative will provide a novel and exciting way to bring about change.

Our Emotional Health App with interactive stories and games will provide a fun way of improving and maintaining wellbeing.
Our upcoming ELK.Health Online Clinics will provide personal one-to-one or group support with a qualified health professional.

Very often people become unwell because they are not doing something that would help them be healthier. At NISAD, we assist people who would like to change their habits and behaviours so that they can lead healthier and happier lives.

With every single person who comes to us, we seek to understand the complex and individual relationship between:

  • their life experiences,

  • their attitudes and motivations,

  • their beliefs about how things are,

  • and their body chemistry.
