At the very core of our existence is the need to be loved and feel connection, and yet, sometimes this can feel very elusive. Wecan feel so misunderstood and not heard. This class will help us understand the ways we feel emotionally loved by those in our life (or don’t and why) and also how we give/show our love for others. It will also help us tremendously to understand how others receive love– what their specific love language is and therefore allow us to get skilled in speaking their language thus improving ALL of our relationships. Some of this class is based on the brilliant books– THE FIVE LOVE LANGUAGES by Gary Chapman. We will be breaking it down and putting it into practice!
Henry David Thoreau– the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. (resignation)
