A New Paradigm For Emotional Work And Mental Health

Hey everyone,

For our monthly workshop, Glenn will interactively teach us how to understand better why we mentally suffer and heal ourselves by thinking about emotional work in a new way:

  • Instead of looking for what makes us happy, understanding what blocks us from innate peace and contentment, which causes us mental suffering.

  • Realizing that emotional work can be a way to look into our mental blockages and unblock us.

  • Common ways people “get stuck” with emotional work and understanding that emotional work can really be effective and have huge upsides for yourself and others.

  • How to do effective emotional work that will have long-lasting results, exploring various emotional work techniques.

  • The idea of “Emotional Work Retreats” and Glenn’s experience doing a ~2-week one together with @Anton Rodenhauser.

  • Why, for most people, emotional retreats might have better long-lasting effects than meditation retreats.

We will also listen to an “emotional work meditation”, which is like a meditative guided therapy session.

You’re welcome, even if you’ve never been to a meetup before or don’t feel like you’d fit in. Here is the link to our last event, maybe you know someone already: AI Risk Scenario Roleplay
