Live LIFE- Lean Into the Full Experience

Course Overview:

Embrace the whole human experience. Emotions are not a disease. Emotions are not a sign of weakness. They are proof of life.

Emotions are the feelings that lay the groundwork for our personalities, determine our outlook on life, and impact our day-to-day. Yet, we talk as though something is wrong if we feel or communicate our emotions or if we are feeling too many emotions, we are perceived as ‘too’ emotional. This outlook on emotions can be harmful to ourselves and those around us.

As a healthcare professional, it is important to have a healthy relationship with emotions to help yourself as well as your patients. By gaining a better understanding of how to work with emotions, we can acquire a more open-minded approach that better sets us up for success.

In this online course, learn how to navigate turbulent times and emerge stronger, both professionally and personally, by rethinking the concept of 'emotions'. Throw away the stigma surrounding mental health and our emotional well-being and discover a new way of living, thinking, and engaging with ourselves and others.

This course is available in English and French.
