The Art of Emotional Balance: Mindful Toolkit for Difficult Emotions

Life has its ups and downs, and for many, even an ordinary day can lead to one emotional rollercoaster after another.

This one-day, three-part workshop blends together Buddhism, psychology, modern contemplative science, and practical meditation tools to:

• demystify what emotions are and how they function
• map the timeline of an emotional episode so you can introduce awareness into your emotions
• practise RAIN and other evidence-based methods for meeting difficult emotions with clarity and kindness
• learn self-discernment and self-discipline - twin skills that turn automatic reaction into considered response
• build a personal toolkit for emotional regulation, working with hot triggers, and enhancing personal wellbeing

Expect teachings, guided meditation, group dialogue, and plenty of time for questions. You’ll leave with concrete practices you can apply the very same day to steady the nervous system, ease reactivity, and discover greater emotional freedom in daily life.
