Understanding our emotional world
Emotions are a core part of our daily lives, influencing how we feel, think, and interact. They often bring confusion and anxiety — both within ourselves and in our communication with others. This course offers simple meditative techniques to help us understand and manage our emotions with ease. Together, we’ll explore how feelings impact our thoughts, behavior, and relationships, while gaining the clarity needed to navigate your emotional world with greater awareness.
What You’ll Explore
Throughout the course, we’ll address questions such as:
- “What triggers my fear, anger, or impatience?”
- “How can I be more loving?”
- “How can I avoid feeling overwhelmed by my emotions?”
With practical meditation strategies, you’ll learn to address these challenges and handle your emotions with understanding and balance. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to recognize your emotions as they arise and discover how to respond intentionally, rather than react impulsively.

“In you two things are happening. One is a cyclone of thoughts, emotions, desires – a great whirlwind around you, constantly changing, constantly transforming itself, constantly on the move. It is a process. Behind this process is your witnessing soul – eternal, permanent, not changing at all. It has never changed. It is like the eternal sky: clouds come and go, gather, disperse, the sky remains untouched, uninfluenced, unimpressed. It remains pure and virgin.” - Osho
