However, it is more often the case that the feelings we turn inward find their way out, and sometimes in a less-than-ideal way.

With this newfound insight, we can explore ways for you to engage more fully in your life and relationships, dig into your sense of purpose, and reconnect with (or discover for the first time) feelings of stillness and joy.
