Skills for Living a Conscious and Joyful Life
Emotional Healing — Body Centered Therapy
Uncover the unconscious beliefs and patterns of behavior that we unknowingly live by. These beliefs prevent us from being who we truly are. We can then find what has been missing for us, in order to heal and change these patterns.
Compassionate Communication
Learn to let go of the old adversarial model of communication, which says we should fight to prove we are right. Move into the new model of communication, one of sharing information in order to solve a mutual problem, by active listening and non-blaming.
Cultivating Stillness — Mindfulness
Learn to give fresh full attention to what is true in any moment. Learn to have an acceptance and appreciation of life. This new perspective creates internal peace even during stressful times.
Understanding Personality — Enneagram
Use the Enneagram personality system to understand human choices and motivations. This helps us to see past the habit of mind that we mistake for who we are, and let go of our old patterns. Compassion comes with this understanding. We can forgive others and ourselves for the often painful habits that make up our defenses in life. We can find out who we really are.
