Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text How do the 5 elements (water, earth, fire, air and space) influence, and manifest through, our emotions? How can we work with the 5 elements to transform our negative emotions into their positive attributes? In this talk (it's fairly long - you may want to make a cup of tea!) we'll examine how the elements manifest in the most subtle, inner forms and how, by working with the energy of the negative emotion as it arises, we can let it go and transform it into pure expression of our awakened nature. This is part 3 of a series of live talks held at the Kagyu Samye Dzong in Cape Town. I'd recommend listening to the other live talks in the series to gain a comprehensive overview.

Send us a text Working with the elements - earth, water, fire, air and space - is an act of continual balancing. We can learn about the elements by observing them in their outer/external form: in nature, our home environments and even in our bodies.

Send us a text Loneliness is such a common but painful human experience and is so prevalent in our fast-paced world. Although we all seek connection, and even may have more connections than ever before thanks to technology, what we are often missing is authentic, heart-felt belonging.

When we can touch the space and energy that connects all life, we are no longer able to feel lonely. We can shift loneliness to oneness. With love and connection, Nicola xx…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text In this episode, I'll share a live recording from a talk held at the Cape Town Kagyu Samye Dzong Buddhist centre in April 2021. In Tibetan Buddhism, it is taught that all energy that arises from the ground of existence (also called emptiness / space) manifests as the five elements, and so it's important to look at energy in general before we dive deeper into the elements themselves. The topics covered include why we meditate, getting to the root of our habits and tendencies and using the five elements to create balance. We'll go over the various laws of energy that govern the relationship between the elements. This is a beginner talk and no prior knowledge is needed before you dive in.
