About the Half Day Course
Everyday we encounter many challenges both large and small and these can cause us to feel irritated, frustrated, or angry. These feelings can destroy our happiness and peace of mind.
Through learning to view and respond to things differently we can experience an inner cool – a vast and profound experience of calm that embraces challenges without being disturbed or harmed by them.
On this course we will discover why difficult people and situations have no real power to cause us problems, and how they can even help us maintain an inner cool.
This course is suitable for all levels of experience.
