We all encounter difficult emotions like anxiety, fear, and depression. In this module, we will unpack the roots of these difficult emotions and consider the ways in which we perpetuate and intensify them through our negative thought patterns. Through the lens of mindfulness, we will bring greater perspective to our emotional difficulties, learn how to lean into them, and practice naming them to tame them. Viewing our symptoms as teachers, we will learn how to listen to our emotions and respond to them mindfully.
Topics include:
• Going Beneath the Storm
• The Emotion of Fear
• Anxiety and Depression
