What this Course Is About

The Self-Discovery course explains about the use of self-knowledge and how to truly know oneself. This, according to ancient spiritual traditions, is the way to acquire true wisdom.

On this course, set out on your own journey of self-exploration, learning about the world of thoughts, feelings, emotions, consciousness and subconsciousness.

Through the 8 weeks of lectures and exercises, practice powerful techniques to delve deeply within your own psychology and understand the different behaviors we have - how they affect our relationships, our circumstances and our life.

We can learn about the amazing potential each person has for change. See for yourself how and where to begin, discovering the ability to respond to life and others with greater clarity and intelligence - and activate the spiritual part within. Through investigating the causes of suffering, depression, anxiety and all the problems in life, learn about overcoming them and finding the source of true peace and wisdom.

Meet other students and qualified instructors to discuss and explore further the world of psychology and self-knowledge, working to put into practice the techniques that are the beginning point of true change.

What You'll Learn

Over the 8 weeks you can learn how to:

* activate awareness and consciousness
* see the causes of problems and negativity
* observe within yourself
* interpret your dreams and use them for self-discovery
* improve your relationships
* develop intuition
* overcome problems with drugs, alcohol, and addictions
* bring order to your life

This course directs our attention within, but when followed by the Dreams and Out-of-Body Experiences course, it is a solid foundation with which to begin our own spiritual journey and discover knowledge about much more than we can imagine.

The course is free of charge.

The course will run twice per week. The first session (every Sunday) will be a lecture explaining the week's topic along with time for questions and answers.

The second session (every Wednesday) will be a practice night, where we will investigate the techniques in depth with guided group exercises.
