Finding Inner Balance: Journey to Enduring Well-Being
This 8-day course is for anyone seeking to find greater inner balance amidst the day-to-day turbulence of life and the accompanying uneasiness, stress, overwhelm, anxiety, frustration and other range of emotions that we often encounter.
Instead of trying to improve or change yourself, fix your feelings or change your life circumstances, this course will teach you how to shift your vantage point to discover the deep “well” of well-being that is already here.
Once you learn how to shift your vantage point, you gain access to this enduring well-being within that is part of your true nature, the essence of who you are.
When we learn to work with our more unpleasant feelings and how to meet and greet them from different viewing points – something transformative happens. What we discover is an innate capacity for ease, compassion and self-compassion, presence, perspective, balance and deep well-being even amidst the ups and downs of our life.
This course is based on my newest book You Don’t Have to Change to Change Everything: Six Ways to Shift Your Vantage Point, Stop Striving For Happy, and Find True Well-Being. I hope you’ll join me for this journey to learn and experience for yourself how to find inner balance and an unshakeable core of well-being.
In this course:
-
You will learn 3 ways to shift your vantage point to experience greater well-being, no matter what your life circumstances.
-

Course Outline:
Lesson 1: Introduction/Shifting Your Vantage Point
This lesson provides a framework for the class, explaining how we can discover inner balance and deep well-being — not by trying to change our circumstances or “fix” ourselves, but by learning to shift our vantage point, to uncover our innate capacities, access our “well” of well-being and experience our true essence. We’ll end with a short meditation on shifting vantage points. (14 minutes)
Lesson 2: The Two Operating Systems
In this lesson you’ll learn about our survival/protection system and our thriving/connection system, that give us very different resources to face challenges. You’ll learn about how, when we can access our newer operating system, we also unlock a treasure chest of inner resources to help meet our challenges in new ways. (14 minutes)
Lesson 3: The Anchor View
In lesson three you’ll learn how the anchor view can help you find balance amidst inner turbulence. You’ll have a chance to work with a few experiential exercises to notice what happens when you shift your vantage point and look out from the anchor view. (15 minutes)
Lesson 4: Working with the Anchor View
In this lesson we take a deeper dive into working with the anchor view. You’ll have an opportunity to experience some practices that will help to bring balance to your nervous system, and ones that you can bring forward into your week. (17 minutes)
Lesson 5: The Mirror View
This lesson introduces our second shift of vantage point: the Mirror View. You’ll learn about why this mirror view can be so transformative, helping us shift from “hole self” to “Whole Self”. We’ll end with a meditation so you can experience this for yourself. (15 minutes)
Lesson 6: A Deeper Dive Into the Mirror View
We’ll continue working with the Mirror View in this lesson. You’ll learn a simple practice that you can bring into your day that will help you start to see yourself in a new way and help counter the negativity bias. (10 minutes)
Lesson 7: The Compassionate Parent View
In this lesson you’ll learn about the third shift in vantage point, the Compassionate Parent View. You’ll have a chance to experience a short meditation to awaken your inner capacity for compassion and self-compassion and learn how powerful this vantage point can be for transforming difficult emotions. (14 minutes)
Lesson 8: Deepening Your "Well" of Well-Being
In this final lesson you’ll have a chance to engage in several practices to deepen your experience of the compassionate parent view. We’ll review the three shifts in vantage point so that you can bring all of these tools and practices into your life, to find inner balance and enduring well-being no matter what you encounter on your path. (17 minutes)
