Based primarily on the work of Dr. Jim Wilder and Dr. Karl Lehman, you will learn the five levels of brain function and how these relate to emotional capacity.

You will explore the five stages of maturity development (infant, child, adult, parent, elder) and why maturity is crucial if emotional healing is going to produce sustained transformation.
6. Disgust and Shame
The final three sessions explore the “big six negative emotions” – disgust, shame, sadness, despair, anxiety, and anger. In this session you will learn how to recognize these emotions and some practical tools for helping people manage and resolve them.
7. Sadness and Despair
These two emotions will make you feel like someone has stepped on your emotional brakes. It can be hard to function after loss, especially when you are looking at a future with no hope. Learn some practical ways to deal with the roots of these emotions and some tools for managing them along the way.
8. Anxiety and Anger
These two emotions will make you feel like someone has stepped on the accelerator of your emotional engine. Both emotions cause high energy that can make it practically impossible to feel and act like yourself. You will learn how the Deeper Walk model can help you get at the roots and deal with the symptoms of these high energy emotions.
