| | | | | | | | Next Leading Change Program starts September 7th! | We know change is part of life, yet we go to great lengths to make our world predictable, safe, comfortable, controllable and definable.

We use our mind to devise ways to avoid having our fear stimulated. Fear is afraid of itself and does not want to be felt. You can do one of two things with fear.

Whether we are aware of it or not, our emotional state has everything to do with the quality of our life, from what we experience internally to how we express ourselves in the world. It is easy to be receptive to positive emotions like joy, love or peace. It is more difficult to embrace overwhelm, anxiety or grief. What if you can't be internally open or emotionally masterful if you are not open to every emotion? Being open emotionally is a courageous internal choice. In Leading Change, you skimmed the surface of emotional awareness. In the mastery program, we delve deep into emotions like grief, depression, anxiety and overwhelm. In the mastery program, you will become at home with all emotion. You will even become facile with it, easily moving from fear to courage, from overwhelm to reason and from anxiety to peace.
