1- Emotional Intelligence

Unlike other subjects, what we learn about our emotions does not get outdated.

Training directly influences a better working environment and encourages greater individual and collective efficiency.

Due to its nature and, although directed to the working environment, what we learn is applied to our daily life. It produces benefits for people who go beyond job performance, creating the conditions needed for a better quality of life, which promotes a spontaneous interest in participation which, in return, favours learning and obtaining positive results.

Participants are not told what they have to do, but they are given elements and principles to get to know themselves better and achieve an emotional balance.

COURSE GOALS

1. To know our own emotions and their effects, our strengths, weaknesses, and possibilities.
2. To know the psycho-physical mechanism of emotions and their usefulness in our daily lives.
3. To learn about how the brain, the nervous system, and the hormones act when emotions are triggered.
4. To discover the five (four at present) practical skills of emotional intelligence (EI).
5. To improve our communication through the principles of EI.

7- Chakras Applied to Life

What is the origin of the chakra system?

The chakra system originated in India between 1500 and 500 BC in the oldest text called the Vedas. Knowledge of the chakra system was passed down through an oral tradition by the Indo-European people. The Chakra system was traditionally an Eastern philosophy until Western authors started resonating with the idea and wrote about the chakras, expanding upon the older texts and making the knowledge more accessible.

What is a chakra?

The word is defined as a spinning disk or wheel; a chakra on the human body is a spinning disk or wheel of energy that runs along the spine.

There are 7 ‘main’ chakras along the spine, and they all exist within the subtle body, overlaying the physical body. Through modern physiology, we can see that these seven chakras correspond exactly to the seven main nerve ganglia which emanate from the spinal column.

The health of one’s chakras is directly connected to the health of the physical body, the mind, and the emotional wellbeing of a person, all those aspects of the human being are connected.

• Introduction – the Chakra System
• 1. The Root Chakra [Muladhara]
