We are born with an innate and instinctual sense of a healthy no. As we grow up, this no can ripen into wisdom and discernment and is vital to making all kinds of healthy choices in life. Often, however, we are taught not to heed it, to override it and this leads to a haziness and a difficulty with a clear yes. It is vital (and so revitalising) to recover this healthy instinct and it can be done!
In this course you will be invited to explore the know how of the no in yourself, the wisdom of your instincts, and to ripen it into wisdom and discernment. This process becoming more conscious of your no and learning to trust it to lead you to greater clarity about what you want. Only when your no is clear and soul-serving can your yes be self-affirming in the very best, even wonderful, way.
For this course we are joined by Saraswati Adi Kaur from the UK. Read about her here.
