The Emotional Alchemy Series: Fear

Growing up, I learned to repress different emotions like anger and sadness. It served me well as a child when it helped me maintain relationships I depended on. As an adult, these are some of the ways repressing my emotions has cost me:

• More prone to illness, back pain, and other physical symptoms
• Resentment built up in various relationships
• Not getting needs met
• Avoiding opportunities out of fear
• Emotionally self-isolating & feeling alone
• Difficulty experiencing true peace

If any of these challenges resonate with you and you’re ready for a change, join me for The Emotional Alchemy Series where you’ll learn to transform your emotions into empowered action, greater self-confidence, and a greater sense of inner peace. Each Tuesday for 6 weeks, we’ll focus on an emotion that is commonly repressed such as fear, anger, and sadness. Each class is structured to stand alone, so there is no pressure to attend each one. However, you may experience more benefit from getting into a consistent practice of befriending your emotions by joining for as many of the classes as you are able.

Each class we’ll discuss how to build a relationship with different feelings through practicing awareness, compassion & curiosity, processing, and empowered action. Classes may include a guided somatic practice, journaling, and group discussions.

What to bring:

• journal and pen

This first Tuesday we’ll focus on Fear.

For this series, I’m partnering with a community-led movement called New Earth School PDX, located at The Den in SE Portland. It’s meant to offer classes on various skills at an affordable rate ($10/class). If you'd like to attend my class, simply RSVP and you can either pay cash or Venmo at the time of the event.
