Moving from Stress to Wisdom

This presentation informs participants how the stress system, when activated over a long period of time, inhibits healing of any sort of illness including cancer. Human beings have another system that some of us are now calling the “Wisdom System.” This system supports health, well-being, healing and allows for a rich, inner life even when the outer aspects of our life are challenging. The key to moving from Stress to wisdom is through gaining an understanding of the nature of reflection. In the presentation we'll be learning tools that allow for reflection.
