How to Live an Expressive, Centered, Reactive Free Life
How much energy do you waste carrying around extra baggage of old hurts, resentments, and guilt? Would you like to be free from these tendencies? Whether they are major emotional wounds or small, lingering feelings, they quietly drain energy and stand in the way of lasting happiness.Let’s face it: moods of rebellion, anger, negativity, and depression affect us all at times. Even with sincere spiritual intentions, past habits can surface unexpectedly, robbing us of joy and inner peace. Excessive excitement, attachments, and attitudes can also throw one off balance, making life harder to navigate.
Yoga teaches that we can become “even-minded and cheerful” in all circumstances. But is this truly possible? And can we cultivate this inner balance without losing our capacity to feel deeply and fully experience life?
In this engaging and practical course, you’ll learn how to recognize emotional patterns, understand their deeper causes, and respond with greater awareness and freedom. It includes the Full Circle Emotional Awareness Exercises. These exceptional exercises, based on Secrets of Emotional Healing by Swami Kriyananda, examine 26 different emotions, showing underlying causes plus effective techniques to work with each emotion.
