Cultivate Balance

I wish I could have taken this course earlier in life, because it contains innumerable valuable takeaways about how to understand and communicate with others! Instructor Molly McConnell conveys an Ayurvedic perspective on this topic thoroughly and thoughtfully. At the end of the course I felt I was able to more effectively communicate in interpersonal situations in my work and community. Further, I was impressed by the format of this course. I've taken a lot of online courses, and Cultivate Balance has honed in on a format that is more adaptable, beautiful and in-depth than any other platform I've used. The worksheets, charts, video lectures, detailed outlines, audio options (so you can listen to lectures podcast-style), reflection questions and quizzes combined for a student experience that felt fully interactive and versatile to suit many learning styles and situations.

There is so much to unpack in this course. It is nice that I can download lectures and revisit as I progress. i have immediately implemented the breathing techniques and affirmations several times a day. I am a work in progress on identifying Dosha types and utilizing this information in my daily interactions. My first step has been to be aware of how people are interacting with me instead of my sole focus being how I am interacting with them. Very enlightening. Thanks Molly and Sierra

I have really enjoyed thinking about what I've learned about the doshas in terms of working with others in my community. The way Molly explains it, in terms of building empathy and understanding, just makes so much sense! The framework is incredibly helpful and has helped me understand my own needs, and the needs of others, and how we can create a working environment that supports us all.
