Hearing Our Stories / Changing Our Stories

 

We shape our stories, and our stories shape us. 

We hold conscious and unconscious stories shaped by our culture, our religion, our family history, our legacies, our gender, and the stories we make up to make sense of our lives.

 

ABOUT THIS COURSE

We can learn to listen in for the story/truth that is the theme song of our consciousness. We can speak these stories out loud, and have them received by a receptive partner. In doing so, the story-lock opens and we are freed to create a new personal parable.

This class will explore our stories, the impact they have on the quality of our lives, and the Parts that hold them in place.

What People Are Saying About the 'Hearing Our Stories' course:

Linda McLyman

M.S., Leadership Consultant

I have taken tons of teleclasses and Jay’s was organized really well. Some classes are healing, but you don’t take it with you. Jay’s had both deep transformation and learning that made it easy to keep going afterward. It was an excellent course, I really loved it.
