    Tools for Recovery: A Brief Look At Feelings
    michelle

    Feelings are signals from your body about what you need or want. They are not good or bad, right or wrong. They just are.

    You have a need which triggers a thought, and immediately a feeling arises. A spiritual leader, whom I know by the name of Ramana, refers to this pattern as "thought/feeling bundles". The thoughts arise from the sense of an unmet need, and immediately, with seemingly no space in between, a feeling is elicited, and to the extent that we are conscious of them, the feeling is felt!

    It is practically impossible to have a thought without a feeling attached to it. And it is not necessary to the healing process to try to separate them. What is important is that we begin to trust―to know on a gut level―that what we are feeling has arisen from a thought which was triggered by a need. That's all. When we absolutely know this, we no longer spin our wheels and harm ourselves by judging the feeling. Instead, we just ask ourselves, "What need do I have that is unmet right now, and what can I do about it?"

    Intensive Weekend Workshop March 30 - April 1, 2007
    workshop 07022

    We are pleased to offer our Intensive Weekend Workshop in just 2 weeks time.

    The workshop runs from 10 - 6 Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

    We limit the number of participants to ensure that everyone gets a good amount of individual attention and that a sense of safety and comfort can be established right away.

    At this point we have one space left in our upcoming Phase I intensive.

    If you would like more information on this offering specifically please e-mail Michelle @ mmorand@islandnet.com.

    If you would like more information on what our intensive workshops entail; whether a Phase I or a Phase II would be best suited to you; and upcoming dates for the remainder of 2007 please follow the link below.

    Have a wonderful week, and perhaps we'll see you at our intensive!
