WIEL: Wisdom in Everyday Life

Five Tuesday Evening Classes: May 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31 from 7:00-9:00 pm Atlantic / 6:00-8:00 Eastern
Time Zone Converter

This course explores the dignity of the Dragon – which is inscrutable, because it has attained wisdom, power and awesome conviction.

Going beyond fear into fearlessness naturally connects us to our innate human goodness, intelligence and bravery that has always been present – all manifestations of innate wisdom. If this wisdom is already ours, why do we experience so much confusion about what to do? How can we tap into that source of wisdom in the midst of our confusion?
