Lesson 2

Understanding Our Needs: The Foundation of Emotional Mastery

In lesson two, we go deeper into the concept of needs and how they are intertwined with our emotions. We will learn that needs are universal and fundamental desires that drive our behavior, and how accurately identifying our needs can pave the way for healthier relationships with ourselves and others. By distinguishing between our strategies and our actual needs, we can better understand our feelings and desires. Additionally, we will discover that some of the needs can be fulfilled in various ways, through practice also by our own inner awareness.

Lesson 3

Managing Challenging Emotions with the RAIN Method

In lesson three, we will delve into the RAIN method - a practical tool for managing challenging emotions and cultivating inner peace. The RAIN method consists of four clear stages - Recognize, Allow, Investigate, and Nurture - that can be applied in meditation or when facing emotionally difficult situations. During the Recognize stage, we pause and become aware of the present moment, observing any physical sensations and emotions that may be present. In the Allow stage, we aim to simply let things be as they are without attempting to change them, accepting everything that arises in the present moment. During the Investigate stage, we listen to our emotions and try to identify the underlying need or needs that are driving them. Finally, in the Nurture stage, we focus on practicing self-compassion and kindness towards ourselves, cultivating a sense of deep self-compassion. By regularly applying these teachings and practicing the RAIN method, we can develop greater emotional resilience and experience greater well-being in our daily lives.

I started with fear, insecurity, and negative self judgement - that seem increasingly with me in my aging years. The suggestions and time to reflect during each class brought a shift in the way I see and feel about myself. In these moments reassurance of a plan of action to help relieve the insecurity arose. Finally, a sense of self appreciation spread from within. I finish with a positive intention for this day. Thank you!
