Welcome

Welcome to The Unlearning School. The site is about working with A Course in Miracles: for more about the Course and further links, see below.
A Course in Miracles
is a complete course of learning for any individual to study in private for their own relief and enlightenment.
The purpose of the commentaries here is to clarify my own thoughts about the Course and to invite further consideration of this profound and beautiful work.
Some of the ideas ... you will find hard to believe, and others may seem to be quite startling. This does not matter ...You are asked only to use them. It is their use that will give them meaning to you, and will show you that they are true.
Remember only this; you need not believe the ideas, you need not accept them, and you need not even welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of this will matter, or decrease their efficacy. But do not allow yourself to make exceptions in applying the ideas the workbook contains, and whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. Nothing more than that is required.

Workshop: Your Special Challenges



Only You Can Save the World!


Next workshop Saturday 5th April 2014

10 am - 2 pm

Andover, Hampshire
 
 
Your Special Challenges


Conflict must be resolved. It cannot be evaded, set aside, denied, disguised, seen somewhere else, called by another name, or hidden by deceit of any kind, if it would be escaped. It must be seen exactly as it is...(W333)



Even when we all have very similar problems, we each have to tackle them as individuals. And as individuals, we also have our own particular sources of grief, frustration, conflict and bafflement. Problems not only get in the way of happiness and success, they actually shape our lives and define who we are. So what is a problem, and what do you do about it? If a problem is an opportunity, how can you make the most of it? If a problem is only a distraction, how can you make the least of it?


In this workshop we will be:

  • Looking at problems in the context of personal development
  • Compiling a 'problem-solving repertoire' or set of more effective responses
  • Recognizing your special purpose in your special challenges
You can expect to:

  • Recognize how your ways of thinking cause problems, and block solutions
  • Distinguish between the facts of a situation and your emotional response
  • Clarify the outcome you want
  • Focus on your choices, not on your helplessness
