COURSE
With David Gandelman
There are moments in life where we just have a hard time accepting things as they are. It could be a relationship dynamic, a work situation, an emotion, health problem, death, or a thousand other things. When that happens, we might begin to ruminate, over-analyze, obsessively problem solve, feel despondent or confused. Our inability to accept reality as it is can lead to a lot of pain and suffering. The gap between the way the world is and the way we want it to be can even become unbearable. In this five part video course, David will walk you through a powerful process of facing, accepting, and shifting your energy in relationship to something difficult in life. You'll choose the hard thing, meet it in stillness, and allow whatever resistance and emotion is there to move through you. The paradox is that when we accept things as they are, that is often when they begin to change. What we resist tends to persist. But when we turn toward difficulty with awareness and courage, something can shift from the inside out. Filmed in the mountains of Boulder, Colorado, this is a grounded, honest, and deeply practical approach to one of life's most essential skills: the art of accepting hard things.
