Emotional Wisdom

Feeling Life – Exploring the Divine Wisdom of our Emotions

Do you sometimes find your feelings to be mysterious, confusing or out of control?

Would you like to be able to distinguish between appropriate, responsive emotions and disproportionate, reactive ones?

Would you like to be able to listen to the inherent wisdom and guidance contained within your authentic emotions?

In our culture we are taught to label certain emotions “positive” and others “negative” and we learn to stuff the ones that are uncomfortable, or to distract ourselves from having to feel them. And yet this is the source of a lot of our suffering, depression and inappropriate behavior. Our authentic emotions are an essential part of a healthy life. They are a rich source of wisdom and guidance about how to respond appropriately to the situations that life presents. Our feelings are an integral part of how our essential self, our divine self, communicates with us.

Join Prema Sheerin for this one-day playful exploration, including discussion, ritual and movement in which you will:

•   Learn how to distinguish between authentic, responsive emotions and distorted, reactive ones.
•   Remember how to listen to the authentic feelings that are the wise promptings of your essential Self.
•   Explore how to be with, and listen to, challenging emotions.
•   Recognize those emotions that are born of the stories and resistance of the ego-mind and how to deal with them.
•   Discover how the Divine communicates to you through feeling.

“This workshop has been one of the most useful I have experienced. The simple techniques Prema shared with us are an invaluable tool for anyone who feels the call to work on his or her emotions. Prema is a wealth of wisdom and she imparts that wisdom and insight in such a clear and comprehensive manner. With playful interludes and with the voice of an angel I thoroughly enjoyed how she led me through some profound inner journeys. I truly wish that many will reap the wonderful rewards of participating in this workshop.” – Wanda Hatfield

"I am filled with gratitude for this wonderful workshop! It brought alive for me the divine presence of each emotion within; they become real for me and not simply an intellectual concept or interpretation. Above all, I felt the reality, as well as the mystery, of the divine guiding me from within through my feeling. It was also really useful to have the distinction between the mind and the knowing of the heart outlined so clearly."

"Prema's workshop provides a safe container to feel and move through the experience of emotions as Divine energy. Although I have studied the emotions as a practitioner, here I was given the opportunity to be with them, to experience them, and to know them more intimately. This opening to inner awareness is so essential to being a more balanced and sustainable human. I am very grateful for the opportunity to have been a participant and will take valuable tools from the workshop into my life and my practice."
