build emotional strength.

Want a higher EQ?

Join us to increase your Emotional Intelligence!

Train to build your emotional resilience and feel more empowered to control your emotional responses.

We will work our emotional muscles, including exercises for strength training, endurance and flexibility. Individual reps and team work activities!

Suitable for those who:

  • are curious or practiced in Mindfulness Meditation and/or Authentic Relating and it's implications

  • sometimes logically know what to do, but can't always do it

  • want to respond rather than react

  • are clients in Emotionally Focused Therapy and want "homework" between sessions

  • want to communicate more effectively with others

Warning: just like a workout out at the gym, your muscles may get "sore" (uncomfortable), but you can decide if it's worth the gains!
