Mindful Awareness: Why We Think, Feel And Behave The Way We Do - by Belinda Takamori
COURSE

Mindful Awareness: Why We Think, Feel And Behave The Way We Do

With Belinda Takamori

Have you ever wondered why you keep repeating the same patterns, reacting to the same triggers, or behaving in ways you don’t always understand? Mindful Awareness is a four-part exploration of the hidden patterns behind how we think, feel, and behave. Drawing on ideas from yogic psychology, mindfulness, and yogic philosophy, we’ll explore the unconscious patterns that influence us, the parts of ourselves we’d rather not see, the emotional patterns we inherit through our families, and why we can sometimes lose trust in our own experience. This course takes mindfulness beyond simply being present or learning how to feel calm. Instead, we’ll use awareness as a way of becoming curious about the uncomfortable parts of ourselves. The reactions, beliefs, and behaviours that often operate beneath the surface. Across four lessons, you'll explore: • Why some patterns can be so difficult to change • Why we hide parts of ourselves in the shadow • How families repeat emotional patterns across generations • Why gaslighting can make us question our own reality • How awareness can help us pause, recognise our patterns and respond differently This isn't about becoming perfectly healed or analysing everyone around you. It's about understanding yourself. Because once we begin to see what was previously hidden, we create something incredibly powerful: The choice to pause. The choice to question. And the choice to respond rather than simply react. If you're ready to become more curious about why you think, feel, and behave the way you do, then this Mindful Awareness course is a good place to begin.
