Hello again dear fellow bloggers 🙂
The personal enrichment workshop that I went to was the “Stress Rrelief workshop”
It took place on November 10th, 2009 in the Vertical Campus.
The workshop was very much similar to professor Sitt’s lecture class when he gave us a raisin and asked us to experience it with all of our sensory organs.
I forgot the professor’s name who was giving the lecture but when his coworker walked into the room everyone bursted into laughter because they looked so alike they could have passed for siblings.
The main point of the lecture was to stop what we are doing for a moment when we feel stressed and try to sense what is going on around us in a peaceful manner. Stress is caused when a person thinks that the situation is stressful. However, if one can change that around and learn to meditate and get rid of those nasty feelings, the frequency and the intensity of the stress will be greatly reduced.
It felt like a review of Sitt’s class since I already knew about the things the facilitator was talking about.
But it was fun since I got a free piece of raisin 🙂
