How present are you?

[dropcap]F[/dropcap]eelings and emotions have a powerful effect on our health and wellbeing. Emotions impact how we think, make decisions, learn and problem solve.

Stress and anxiety are at epidemic proportions worldwide. In South Africa approximately 17 million people deal with an anxiety disorder. Depression and anxiety disorders cost the South African economy an estimated R40 billion annually. Every day 23 people commit suicide.

How often do you BAN — bury, avoid, numb — your emotions and feelings? What hold does stress and anxiety have over your life? How present are you at work, home and play? How much time do you invest in your own wellbeing?

It’s always about you

[dropcap]E[/dropcap]verything starts with you. If you do not attend to yourself first, you cannot attend to anyone else with the integrity, mindfulness and compassion that working with others calls for.

The learning journey starts with an inner, personal one on the Level 1 Shape of Emotion Foundation course. At the end of Level 1 participants will understand why self-work is the foundation of this work. You will have an overview of the principles that underpin a 5th Place. You will be able to use the Shape of Emotion tool as a daily practice.

The journey continues

Shape of Emotion is a remarkably powerful, yet simple process for how we structure, store, represent and regulate emotions in order to thrive in today’s fast-paced, stress-filled, overwhelming world. Based on the latest work in neuroscience, Shape of Emotion draws from the best of Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Mindfulness and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to offer a comprehensively researched, evidence based, proven method for enduring change.

The Foundation Course is suitable as a standalone course for personal development and inner wellbeing. It is also the first step to using Shape of Emotion with others:

• Level 2 – Apprentice – Shape of Emotion group work (2 Days)
• Level 2 – Artisan – Shape of Emotion one on one (3 Days)
