In this Reflections class, I will present the stages of self-esteem and the archetypal challenges that are inherent to each of these stages. Here is a brief description of each of the three days:
Monday, 12 November
Session One: Stage One: Revolution
Our desire for empowerment, our need to be ourselves, to find our voice erupts in us. It does not gently surface. It explodes out of a mixture of desperation, repression, fear, anxiety, self-betrayal, and confusion about oneself. Your inner self stages a revolution in some physical way in your life, in your psyche, in your marriage, in your body through an illness, in your sexuality, as a way of making the statement that you can no longer continue in your present life. A new “self” has arisen and that inner part of you will not be repressed, abused, controlled, contained any longer.
Tuesday, 13 November
Session Two: Stage Two: Involution
All revolutions come to an end, even our own. Eventually the obstacles that motivated us to revolt are no longer in our life, either because we moved on or they did. The time comes when we must become that new person, when we must discover who we are and what it is we want to do with all this power that is our inner self.
Wednesday, 14 November
Session Three: Stage Three: Evolution
Stage three represents our evolution into deeper understanding of the nature of inner power, including the power of choice, the power of our words and thoughts, and our relationship to creation. Self-esteem as a protective firewall matures to self-reverence, a deep regard for the power of your soul and all that you are capable of influencing by thought, action, prayer, and love.
I hope you will join me for this three-day course. It’s one of those seminars that everyone can relate to, as we are all on the journey of self-esteem. As always, I look forward to being with you again.
Love,
Caroline
