We often don't really take note of our feelings unless they are extremely "good" or extremely "bad". We somehow maintain ourselves on a platform where everything is "fine" even if it's not.
In this course we will investigate and discover the benefits of recognising, experiencing and identifying ur emotions as a means to deepen our understanding of ourselves and of what are the next appropriate actions we might take.
All of us have feelings flowing through our minds — yet we go through life trying hard to ignore them.
Feelings can be messy, inconvenient, confusing, even addictive.
They make us do things we wish we hadn’t done. It’s no wonder our emotions scare us sometimes – they seem so out of our control.
Feelings are the fuel that inspires our behavior. Like our minds, they can be our enemies and our friends. In this course, students will learn the language of emotions, what they tell us and how to utilize them to enhance our spiritual growth.

Our faith starts with our primary caregivers as children: if we have parents or caregivers who are reliable and who respond to our needs when we cry, then we have the experience that we can get what we need.
As we grow, we transfer that to our notion of the Supreme Being—we know that when we cry out God will respond. But if we had parental abuse or some kind of traumatic experience with our original caregivers, and they were themselves unreliable, it’s going to make it really, really hard for us to have faith that there’s a God who cares, that when we pray, we will be responded to.
That can have a ripple effect throughout our whole life between really having faith that there’s a Being out there who cares and having no faith at all.
Childhood trauma needs to be worked through—we need to be aware of what it is. It’s not about jumping over and taking shelter of God and leaving all human connections. It’s both—if we really understand who God is then we also know God’s communicating through the world around you/ us.
He’s inside but He’s also outside. We need to be open to that too!

In This Course...
In life there are so many phases that we pass through, each one with a loss of something which affects us. Loss and Grieving are a natural part of growth and transition, and also require some time to process and integrate before we can fully move forward. This introductory course opens the door to this important element showing how loss and grieving helps us develop, transition and grow.
As we change and grow there will be so many losses, often experienced as something unexpected and unwanted. We might lose a job, a limb, our identity, our home, our faith… Grief is the natural, necessary, normal response to loss. The degree of grief feelings we will have following that loss will depend on how attached we are to the object of our attachment. Grief is a long and arduous process of learning to digest and integrate the pain of loss, and a grieving person never returns to being “normal”.
In response to that, we can:
1) Do nothing and passively keep our grief feelings to ourselves;
OR
2) Become an active participant in our grieving and mourning process. As Krishna Bhaktas we may think that, if we just chant more, the pain of grief will go away. This will be very helpful if we are able to chant with full attention.
However, if the grief feelings are not acknowledged and tended to, they will become stronger and stronger until they will lead to some big life crisis that incapacitates you until you finally do pay attention to them.
