Self-Empowerment Workshop, Especially for Singles

Description

Cultural messages suggest that we’ll be happier, healthier, and wealthier if only we could find that “special someone.” These messages lead us to downplay the importance of our other relationships. Putting all of our energy into one relationship can leave that relationship strained by overly high expectations. It can also leave us rather lonely and isolated, especially if this coupled relationship ends. And it can leave us feeling like second-class citizens if we remain single.

This workshop is designed to empower people to look beyond pervasive cultural messages that tell us that the only way to complete our happiness is through a romantic coupled relationship. It helps us learn to enrich our lives through cultivating all of our relationships, thus increasing resilience by deepening our friendships with compassion and raised awareness.

In this 2-hour workshop, we will:
* Take a closer look at the cultural messages around coupling and singlehood,
* Learn about two newly researched stereotypes: Singlism and couplemania, and
* Practice powerful tools to counteract those stereotypes by separating our needs from our strategies.

You will leave this workshop with:
* Renewed confidence to create happiness in your life,
* The courage to design relationships as diverse as you are,
* Greater awareness of cultural messages that contribute to distress, and
* More compassion in your life directed toward self and others.
