HOW TO FIND MY DIRECTION
Are you ready to embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, purpose alignment, and goal achievement? How to Find My Direction is a comprehensive personal development course designed to help you unlock your full potential, find your life's purpose, and navigate the path to success with clarity and confidence.
Our course is structured around four core sections, each carefully crafted to guide you through the essential aspects of personal growth and development. We will help you answer the simple but foundational questions: WHO (am I)? WHY (I do) WHAT (I do) and HOW (to do it).
How to Find My Direction is a course for 8-12 people over 4 months, 60 hours in total.
The structure is based on the four core moduls:
WHO | WHY | WHAT | HOW
Each modul is built up from live and online parts: we meet once a month, for a half-day long workshop on Saturday where the exercises are focused on genuine connection, deep listening, feeling-based reflection, movement, intuition and meditations.
The experiences of this workshop give the base for the more cognitive work that follows over Monday evening online sessions, where discussions, reflection, sharing, and written exercises deepen the insights.
The last meeting in person is time for reflection, acknowledging our successes and presenting our plans for the future, looking back at all what we have accomplished.
