Transforming Anger and Hurt into Spiritual Power
This class is offered in person only
$15 per class, free for supporting members
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 series, through talks, guided meditations and discussions, we will explore far more successful strategies for dealing with hurt and disappointment. We will discover how rather than getting swept up in our anger we can transform that impulse into a flexible, peaceful and clear-minded response. Such a skillful response not only brings resolution and creates harmony, it also enables us transcend our feelings of hurt within we so often feel stuck.
Everybody welcome.
