Why do we respond to feelings of hurt and rejection by becoming angry? Clearly, we think that anger will protect us. However, in truth, it does the opposite. It locks us even deeper into our experience of being overwhelmed, makes us feel worse about ourselves, and leads us to say and do things that exacerbate the problem and that we will later regret.
In this Saturday course, Alexandra will teach and guide meditations, that will help us explore far more successful strategies for dealing with hurt and disappointment. We will discover:
- We can transform the impulse to follow anger and instead develop flexible, peaceful, and clear-minded responses,
- Develop skillful resolutions that create harmony with others,
- Enable us to transcend our feelings of hurt and pain.
This course will continue as a weekly series on Thursdays starting September 12.
Everybody welcome.
