Why take the class?
We are powerless over substances, other people, the events of life, etc., but we are not powerless over our state. Our state (mindset and mood) dictates our lens; how we perceive things. Everything that happens in life is in interaction with our state. When we are present and calm, we can respond and are less disturbed by difficulties, when we are not, we mindlessly react, often regretting our actions.
12-steppers know the importance of state management. Remember H.A.L.T. (hungry, angry, lonely, tired)? Why stop there? Why not learn daily practices to use to calm your nervous system, nourish your soul, reflect, get insights and conduct self-inquiry? These tools are keys to changing our patterns from reactive to responsive and bringing presence and peace. These are the “unshakable foundations” spoken of in As Bill Sees It.
