Discussion: Attitudes and Emotions
Details
Here is the link to the video chat, for those who want to attend remotely.
Throughout the Cayce readings, one of the central themes is "thoughts are things". In other words, our thoughts are very real, and they have a direct impact on the world around us. And some believe that your thoughts literally create the reality in which you live. In today's world, there are may different books and seminars designed to teach us that wisdom... The Secret, etc.
This discussion will take a step back from analyzing "thoughts", and instead dig into understand the power of "feelings".
In this discussion on Attitudes and Emotions, we will touch many topics... but the underlying theme is how your feelings, emotions, and thoughts about life itself, and all of it's challenges, are critical to spiritual development.
