Glebe House Annual Report

GLEBE HOUSE... Annual Report 2017-2018

Below is an excerpt of the 2017-18 Glebe House annual report. The report outlines the
wonderful ability that the Encapsulator platform has and the impressive use of technology in
the AOD sector. Providing a great opportunity to document, track and reflect on their life
transforming journey.

Please see as follows:

Another program element, the video time capsule, shows Glebe House’s innovative approach to
treatment.
For more than two years, clients have been invited to record a private video of themselves during their
time in residence. While not mandatory, the majority have willingly participated. More than 70 clients
have so far made recordings where they answer a battery of 20 questions about their lives in recovery,
feelings, goals and hopes for the future. The recordings are stored securely and confidentially. They can
only be viewed by the participant, with a recommendation that videos remain stored for two years
before reviewing.

Our evaluation of this innovative therapeutic tool shows it to be a highly effective instrument for self-
reflection and goal setting. The video journal allows clients to express freely how they are going
and where they want their lives to head. “If you watch this in two years’ time, what would you say to
yourself?” is an example question.
The video time capsule tool has received positive feedback from most clients and some have now viewed
their original recordings, noting how far they have come!

Additional recordings will be possible to create an ongoing video journal in the future iteration of the
therapeutic tool, which has been transformed to a web-based platform with secure login and storage of
data. This platform, now registered as Encapsulator, provides an engaging means for men to self-reflect
and monitor progress. It allows men to own their recovery and, in the often-fragile lives of those in early
recovery, becomes a channel for hope.

FEATURED IN

How do I make one?

Uploading;
It is possible to upload anything you can digitize. It is highly beneficial to record on a laptop with a camera directly from the encapsulator platform

Lock it away;
The length of time you choose to lock your Digital Time Capsule is up to you and will depend on the purpose you have created the capsule and your purchased subscription length.
Once your Digital Time Capsule has been locked you can keep uploading as often as you like. All things uploaded into your Digital Time Capsule cannot be accessed until the date you chose for it to be unlocked

Reflect;
Once your hatch date arrives you will be sent an email reminder with a link to download all of the content from your Digital Time Capsule.

When do I use one?

Some Popular Uses we are aware of at the moment;

Documenting Historical Moments

A video diary, journal to safely and securely store all of your private thoughts, goals hopes and dreams

Documenting Family history for future generations

Sending unedited messages from the grave at your funeral or directly to a loved one

Therapeutic Technology supporting people with substance abuse issues and people who want to implant programs of change

A corporate accountability tool

A coaching tool to support and teach people the value of personal responsibility

An environmentally friendly lifetime video diary.

Why would I want one?

Psychological studies have shown that when we remember the past, our memories only go back to the last time we accessed that memory. Which is essentially like Chinese whispers if you have ever played that?

In laymen’s terms, our ability to remember what has happened is slowly eroded and diluted over time.

Accountability

People struggle to keep themselves accountable to self-imposed goals and promises.

The reason most people stop is because it becomes to painful and its comfortable to go back to what we know.

Lets try something different?
Let’s create a video promise to ourselves!

Capturing a moment in time, where you create a video promise to yourself. This help you keep YOU accountable. We do this by time locking your video message until a future date of your choosing.

Your message is coming from a third party!

Where you will be securely sent all of the video messages you have sent to yourself.

How does this sound?

Are you ready to become personally accountable to you?

Other Uses

As a result of releasing Encapsulator to the public; people have started to use the digital time capsules in many different ways. This has given me so much joy as all I wanted was to help people and encourage connection. The opposite of Addiction, is Connection. Below are some of the other ways people have told us they are using Encapsulator:

Wedding anniversary gifts
Scrapbooking
Baby
Family tree
Travel photography & Journaling
Important documentation (i.e. Birth certificate)
Manifesting
Mothers Day gifts

Recovery

In line with a program of action, we believe that this an optimal way to sustain quality long term recovery. Encapsulator supports you to stay engaged and connected with your goals, dreams, and aspirations.

We have also seen people use it to re-engage with recovery when they’ve drifted away. Whether that be through their preferred treatment centres or personal daily programs.

It is also a valuable tool for relapse prevention.
While we understand that there is no cure all for what ails us. Encapsulator is unique in its ability to be modelled for your benefit or tailored for the service you provide.

Create yourself a future experience of discovery with a digital time capsule!

Reflection

As with all things in life, hindsight is a wonderful thing.
Sometimes it’s difficult to see the growth and change in ourselves. It’s easy to forget who we were and where we came from.Imagine having the opportunity to actually look back at exactly what you were thinking and how you were feeling.

You can’t take a photo of that.

Encapsulator has taught us that by recording a live video with freedom of time length, it is the ultimate memory bank and storage solution.

My own personal experience of recording the first ever time capsule really showed me how much I had changed.
Not just in my appearance or the things I had in my life; but in the way I perceived myself and life in general. The time capsule I had remembered recording, was very different to the one I watched 3 years later.
Reality was, the video locked away never changed, the person watching it had changed dramatically.

Reflection is a great way to measure personal growth. So often you can only understand where you want to go by looking at where you have been.

If this sounds like something you would like to do, create yourself an account, choose a date in the future, and lock your capsule.
Your content will disappear and the countdown will begin.
You may update your Time Capsule with media as often as you see fit, possibly around significant milestones or maybe just because you want to update it.

Create a future experience of discovery for yourself, and your loved ones, with a
DIGITAL TIME CAPSULE by Encapsulator!

We wish you a wonderful journey…
