WHY WE NEED THE HOUSE WITHIN APPROACH

For many of us, our emotions run our lives. Our emotions just seem to happen, as if they have a mind of their own. There is often no structure in our emotional worlds.The visual image of THE HOUSE WITHIN brings emotional structure into our emotional worlds. THE HOUSE WITHIN has five floors, and each floor represents an emotional state of mind. We all have all of these 5 states of mind. We react differently in each state of mind. Learning about our 5 states of mind help us manage our emotions in new ways.

WHY WE NEED NEW VOCABULARY

In the community, we often talk about our emotions using words such as anxiety, depression, disorder and illness. All these words are important scientifically, but they do not help us to understand or to manage our emotions. We need new vocabulary, new concepts and new visual images to help us know how to manage our emotions in a way that can make us feel better and help us to cope better. With new vocabulary, based on everyday language, we are better able to teach people about their emotions.

NEW VOCABULARY, CONCEPTS AND IMAGES

THE HOUSE WITHIN introduces us to many new words, concepts and images to help us understand and manage our emotions. Learn here about the 5 floors of THE HOUSE WITHIN. Learn about your ATTIC, UPSTAIRS, GROUND FLOOR, BASEMENT + CELLAR. Learn about the spiral staircase that spins, and about the importance of generating your own momentum, towards a purpose, or a focus, that you really want to achieve.

SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES

Once we can learn to tune in and notice what floor of our HOUSE WITHIN we are on at any moment, we can learn how to change floors when we want to. THE HOUSE WITHIN will teach you simple and effective tools and techniques that you can learn to use whenever you want to change floors, that is when you want to change your state of mind. They are simple and they work!
