Self-awareness is necessary for optimal balance and functioning in life. To be self-aware is to realize the dimensions of self and the states of those dimensions. Human beings are multi-dimensional. We are animal, connected to these bodies and the earth we move upon. We are relational, connected to humans as well. We are cosmic, connected and part of all creation, made of stardust. We are Spirit, expressing in form. Students will explore the dimensions of self by studying various systems and techniques for self-awareness. They will become more conscious of their attitudes, beliefs, and ways of being; symptoms of stress and imbalance; healthy responses to stress and imbalance; and how to integrate spiritual principles to maintain balance and honor all facets of their being. 

This is a 7-week class beginning Oct. 19th and running every Thursday (except Thanksgiving) until Dec. 7th. You are registering for the entire 7 weeks.
