About Contemplative Psychology
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by EMOTIONS?
Whether it is your own emotions, or those of others; positive or negative ones, our emotions can be unruly and difficult to manage. When interacting with others, it can sometimes feel like our emotions are way too much and we don’t know what to do with them.
In Contemplative psychology we invite SPACE and learn to hold and feel our emotions as they are, without suppressing them and without acting them out.
It's a very brave act to trust what we're feeling and be able to put words to our emotions. It takes training. It is very organic how we learn this and we are learning to trust the tender side of ourselves and be strengthened by our tenderness.
