EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COURSE
Understanding of our mind and emotions is an area left unexplored. We may have mastered much else in our lives like a good education, jobs, relationships, friends and family. But when it comes to dealing with emotional issues with our near and dear ones we have no idea. We find it hard to control our anger, anxiety, depression, resentment, doubt and ill will. Why? Because we simply don’t understand the nature of our emotions or mind.
Luckily for us, the hard work has been done for us over 2,500 years ago by Shakyamuni Buddha who became enlightened and came to understand the true nature of our mind, emotions and existence.
You don’t have to be a Buddhist or religious to benefit from these time-honoured teachings, which give us an insight into our minds and how they work.
In this Emotional Intelligence Course, you will receive teachings on the nature of emotions and in understanding them, we can overcome the negative ones and promote the positive ones. In this course you will learn how to:
Increase the positive emotions such as kindness, compassion and all-encompassing love
Manage depression, anxiety, sadness and jealousy by learning their antidotes
Deal with anger in an appropriate way
Effective strategies to calm one’s mind and emotions
Embrace the nature of existence rather than rejecting it
By understanding your emotions and learning how to manage them effectively, you will find our relationships, work and family life will improve. By managing your own emotions effectively, you will be able to understand and navigate others’ emotions too.
This course will be taught by Lama Choedak Rinpoche, a well-respected and revered meditation master, who completed a three and a half year solitary meditation. Rinpoche has taught in the West for over 30 years and speaks fluent English. He is able to seamlessly translate the ancient wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism and expertly explain how to apply it in our everyday, modern lives. The course is carefully designed in a safe and interactive fashion where many likeminded people will share their experience in dealing with destructive emotions and gain intelligence.
This course is an opportunity not to be missed! Learn the true and authentic ways of understanding and managing emotions; taught from the heart.
