Overcoming anger
Anger is an expression of inner pain; an indication that all is not well in our world. It is one of the most powerful and destructive emotions. How can we change the anger within and use our energy in more positive ways?
Learn how to
- understand the anger process
- realise the power of your thoughts in dealing with anger
- let go of inner pain
- use spiritual knowledge and awareness to transform anger
- develop a range of practical tools to live a more peaceful life
Positive thinking
This course is for those who are not sure that they are ready for meditation but would like to understand the workings of the mind better, gain greater clarity and learn how to manage their thoughts.
Benefits include
- becoming a master of your thoughts and feelings
- applying the gentle art of self-reflection to encourage personal growth
- tapping into the natural positivity of the mind
- letting go of negative, energy-draining language and self-talk
- developing a consistently positive attitude
Self-esteem
No matter how successful we may be, almost all of us could do with a self-esteem boost. Reminded of our core values and our own innate worth, we can face life confidently and peacefully.
Learn how to
- know and discover your positive self
- accept yourself, identifying personal strengths, abilities and uniqueness
- develop effective strategies for building healthy relationships and letting go of fear and aggression
- empower yourself, making the right choices to maintain inner balance
Stress-free living
Stress has been identified as a leading cause of many health problems. Largely psychological rather than physical in origin, and therefore much more difficult to prevent and remedy, modern stress affects nearly all of us at some point in our lives. Whatever its origins, stress drains our physical, emotional and mental energy.
Learn how to
- identify different forms of stress and the effects they have on our well-being
- recognise the triggers of stress and how and why we react
- use practical tools to enable inner change
- move from fearing change to embracing it
- develop your spiritual intelligence to manage stress
Residential courses
We also run residential retreat centres, which provide a supportive and nurturing environment where individuals and professional groups can explore meditation and the spiritual underpinnings of their personal, family and work life.
