Compassion Integrity Training has several modules, in which I have attended the master class on “Emotional Awareness.”
Through this engaging session,
I’ve interacted with several individuals, sharing my experiences and learning
from others’ experiences on emotional intelligence and awareness.
Emotional Awareness can be stated
as the ability to be aware of the rising and falling of our mental experiences
on a moment-to-moment basis and to understand the difference between beneficial
and harmful mental states.
With a lot of engaging questions
and possibilities, the facilitators have garnered the responses from the participants
and made me feel comfortable in engaging the discussion.
There was a discussion on how
beneficial mental states lead to genuine happiness for us and others. How
harmful mental states distort reality and lead to suffering for us and others.
One big take away from this
session would be the discussion on the Atlas of emotions.
How thought is triggered and
how it transcends to a mental state, how there is a possibility of constructive
action and destructive action, and how our mental states influence our work and
status of being.
Also, we practiced the art of
active listening through break out rooms. Listening to the strangers’ stories
and their experiences on how being aware of their emotions changed the course
of their actions.
Do check out the atlas
of emotions. It’s visually appealing as well as informative.
