Healing the Mind: A Discussion Course on Self-Esteem and Self Empowerment
A 16 week course (2 hours, 1 day a week) Start time: TBA
with Chantel Tophen
This course is
designed to encourage people to shine a light on the behaviors and thought
patterns that may be holding them back from becoming happy, healthy,
self-confident, positive, constructive, complete and empowered. It is intended
to serve as a guide for each individual to work their way through their issues
in order to achieve self-esteem in its truest form and thus raising the self-esteem
of those around them just by being an example of how influential and inspiring
a person can and will become once they have mastered control over their thought
and behavior patterns. By healing thyself, you heal those around you, and I
believe this to be a very important first step in creating a world where
everyone feels free and welcome to be themselves and secure of themselves
enough to help and encourage those around them to feel free and welcome to do
the same.
Many parts of
this course include sharing experiences, memories, and feelings with each
other. It is not a requirement to participate in those exercises if you don’t
feel comfortable doing so. It is also possible to learn from other people’s
examples if that is how you prefer to participate, although I would encourage
full participation if possible, when you are ready.
Passing this course does not mean receiving a passing grade. There will
be no grades given. Passing is your own evaluation of your progress and whether
you feel you could benefit from taking this course again, or if you feel you’ve
absorbed what you needed to and are ready to move on with the skills and
information you’ve retained. http://www.facebook.com/healingthemind.torontoPlease email us if you are interested in taking this course - it will start after students show interest. Email: torontofreescool@gmail.com Subject: Healing the Mind
