Module 3 – Breaking Through

Reentering Your World With A New Perspective

In Module 3, you'll find out if your new ways of engaging with yourself and others can withstand real challenges—and there's no better place to do that than among the trusted colleagues who've walked this path alongside you.

In so many ways the circumstances of our life do not change—same partners, family, health, and life story. You’ve discovered that you are at the center of how you respond to life circumstances, not a victim of others’ choices.

So together, we explore what becomes possible when in our relationships we act with more clarity and honesty instead of automatic reactions.

What this module explores

We’ll explore questions such as:

  • What tends to happen inside me when I feel misunderstood, criticized, or not valued?

  • What new ways can I employ to engage in conversations without resorting to previous patterns?

  • What does “being true to myself” look like in the actual relationships I care about?

  • How do my internal practices support my outward interactions?

This isn’t about acquiring a different persona. It’s about experimenting with small, honest shifts that reflect greater steadiness and harmony.

How we work together

As before, the module blends:

  • Individual reflection and practice – journaling, inquiry, and small experiments in your real-life relationships.

  • Group sessions – time to share what you’re noticing, explore live examples, and practice new ways of relating in a supportive circle.

We keep the focus on your real life: what actually happens with your partner, friends, adult children, colleagues, or community—not just theory.

What you’ll be practicing

Possible areas of practice include:

  • Slowing down in conversation—when you’re stirred up, learning simple ways to pause, sense, and respond rather than react.

  • Holding the other person. Seeing others as noble beings whose lives have been shaped by their pasts.

  • Listening beneath the surface. Learning to hear the human being behind someone’s words, especially when those words blame you or someone you love.

  • Trying new moves. Applying what you’re learning in your daily relationships.

Module 3 may be a good fit if:

  • You’ve completed Modules 1 and 2.

  • You’re aware of steady gains in your inner world and in your relationships and want to experiment them without blaming yourself or others.

  • You sense that something in how you show up with people is ready to soften, open, or mature.

Prerequisite: Completion of Module 1 and 2.
Scheduling: Dates and details will be available to alumni.
