"Your vision will become clear when you look into your heart. Who looks outside dreams. Who looks inside, awakens."
C.G Jung
Do you ever feel deep down that there is a great deal more you can achieve in your life, but that something is holding you back? This course, which takes place over three and a
half days, uses the most powerful tool of experience to help you uncover the everyday subconscious patterns that can prevent you from reaching your goals. It is only when these patterns come to our awareness that we are in a position to know how to change them.
The awareness generated during this course is most profound and of long-lasting value because it is self-discovered as opposed to being "taught", either coming from within oneself or from fellow participants, who come from a variety of backgrounds, but who each share the desire to lead as genuinely and richly fulfilling a life as possible.
No two courses are ever the same, since each is facilitated in such a way that it perfectly adapts to and mirrors the experience and growth of each individual group of participants. This unusual approach creates and nurtures a special environment that offers the opportunity to step momentarily away from the routines and demands of everyday life in order to genuinely connect with who you are and what you want for your life. An opportunity to consider, with honesty and authenticity, the degree to which one's pursuit of goals, achievement and success in life is aligned
with one's inner desires and ambitions. To reflect how well one can balance self-expectation with the expectations of those around us, be it family, friends or business colleagues. And, above all, an opportunity to connect with the place, somewhere within us, that instinctively knows the answers and that wants us to achieve what we truly desire in life.
Cost
This course also has a unique payment scheme. To reserve a place on the Foundation Course, you pay a registration fee of £200. At the end of the course, you will be asked to consider the value you have received and to choose what you wish to pay accordingly. You may choose to use the market value of the course (£375 including registration fee) as a guideline. Or to pay more or less should that be your preference. You may even ask for the return of your registration fee, provided that you complete the course. The payment process is carried out in complete confidentiality.
To help you decide if you would like to participate in the Foundation Course, Essence offers Introductory Evenings during the year.
These are completely free of charge and are intended to provide a real sense of what you can expect from taking part in the course.
