This course is suitable for anyone who is intrigued by how we might include spiritual health as a step to wellbeing. While these discussions may include brief references to religion, this course is not an endorsement of any specific religious concept or activity. i.e You do not need to be ‘religious’ to attend this course. The content of this course may be adapted as scientific research, theories or course requirements change. Please
note: this course is not designed for help with speaking languages more confidently; please see our brochure for our language courses. This course is aimed at people who would like to maintain and sustain their mental health and well-being. It is not a therapy session, is not suitable for those experiencing a mental health crisis and not intended to replace any medical advice or healthcare services. If you have a trauma-related diagnosis, or a severe and enduring mental health consideration, you may wish to discuss this with your doctor, community mental health team, or the course tutor before enrolling. We ask all attendees to take responsibility for their own learning and well-being, to collaborate in a way that ensures a safe learning environment for the whole group, and only take part in activities which feel right for them. No guarantee of any specific results is given or implied.
Prosp Is This Right For Me
By the end of the course, learners will be able to: explore the neuroscience of spirituality; consider “functions” of the soul and ‘signs' for change in our spiritual health; discuss concepts like purpose, intuition and the role of dreams; list an ingredient that supports spiritual living.
Prosp What Will I Learn
Sessions explore a mixture of theory and practical exercises; there may be written activities as well as the potential for learning through listening, reading, watching videos, asking questions and contributing to group discussion, as well as (where relevant) mindfulness and guided meditation. Book, app and video recommendations may also be offered during the course, which are optional to consider; always check suitability before you invest. Learners are empowered and encouraged to participate where they feel comfortable, as appropriate, in a way that benefits their health and well-being. There is no role play on this course.
