Happiness Beyond Emotions

As human beings, we all have emotion, be it negative or positive. While it is no doubt that our positive energy can always drive us to do great things, negative emotion, when given it a positive twist, can motivate us to move forward accomplishing what we want ourselves to achieve. This workshop will provide participants an experiential opportunity to try out different strategies to motivate themselves and others to feel good and do well, even though when they are affected by negative emotion.

Appointment with Life
The course centers on developing our ability to enjoy calm and ease in life, and to live fully in every moment. This ability is developed by cultivating mindfulness – a non-judgmental moment-to-moment awareness of what is going on in our body and mind and in the world around us, by tuning into our breath and to every other aspect of our life. Staying in touch with ourselves and life in this intimate way, we begin to gain clarity, to feel less stuck and to discover more options and possibilities in life….

Classes run on every Sat. from 3:00-5:30pm

Instructor: Dr. Yuk-Lin Renita Wong (associate professor - York University)
