If you haven't spent time with Ruth King, you should! As a facilitator, coach, consultant, and scholar of indigenous wisdom, Ruth helps provide us with a unique understanding of what it means to be emotionally wise. With the skill of a shaman, she weaves together influences from depth psychology, mindfulness principles, neurobiology and genealogy, as she helps us enhance our own emotional awareness and moral consciousness. One of the most profound aspects of this session will be how she helps us work with rage as a powerful healing force in our lives. Ruth walks us through the landscape of emotions. In this experiential presentation, she will show us how to live in a way that honors the totality of our human experience, allowing both suffering and joy on the path to becoming awake. Emotional Wisdom is the mental development of heart and mind. It's a quality of awareness; a presence that allows us to reflect on our lives lovingly, and leverage this knowledge to connect in ways that touch, shape, and heal the global human heart. One measure of Emotional Wisdom is in how consistently we manage ourselves when we are suffering. Suffering is often fed through our inattention or unawareness. When we stay close to the truth of this moment without an overlay of defense, we become more grounded and clear. We discover that we can open to the humanness of others and ourselves without fear, and that people, just like us, do unskillful things out of pain and confusion. We have all suffered and we are all capable of unfathomable kindness, compassion, and joy. The work of Emotional Wisdom is an inner journey that unifies mind and heart. We are not searching outside of ourselves; we are revealing to ourselves the depth of our true nature-which will be unique to each of us. While unique, this inner work is also to be understood within the context of global oneness. We are not separate from what happens to and around uswe are a part of its creation through our thoughts and actions. Disturbances within our own hearts, in our relationships, our communities, our work, our land, the environment, and throughout the world are the gross result of our collective thoughts and actions. Our responsibility as global citizens is to become emotionally wise, and in so doing, balance global disorder and foster peace.
