About this course

This workshop gets to the heart of some of the challenges involved in being human. 

It has never been easy to be human, we stress about the never-ending list of things we have to do. We are also wired with an innate negative bias that often makes us focus on the negative rather than the positive in our lives. Despite all of our progress, the research tells us that we are more anxious, depressed, stressed and sleep-deprived than ever before. 

This workshop is an invitation to pause and ask yourself what you need to live with more ease and to develop strategies to manage the challenges of life. 

Who should attend?
