Our emotions are important – they shape our experience of our reality. They can be wonderful, and they can be unbearable. Sometimes we want to hold on to them forever, and other times we want rid of them. Whatever the experience, for most of us, emotions seem beyond our control, as if they happen to us, and we have no say in whether they stay or go.
During this 4-week course, drawing on practical experience of meditation, psychology, and Buddhist wisdom, we will discover how to ’embrace the waves’ and maintain equilibrium and presence with turbulent emotions. Meditation will help us to deepen our understanding of emotions, and discover the ability to regulate our emotional responses. Cultivating this emotional balance will promote good physical health and enhance our personal wellbeing and growth.
Learn how to cultivate a profound sense of mental and emotional balance. This course is not about suppressing negative emotions, but about learning to experience and govern our emotions in a healthy, dynamic way.
