Beyond Self-Sabotage Workshop
Why is it that all people spend part of their time meeting their emotional needs in a way that is self sabotaging? How can it be that a part of the ego has learned to feel valued the more we block our own success? If the need to self sabotage is always a symptom perpetuated by unresolved emotional wounds or beliefs about self, what would it mean if you learned how to address the actual issues beneath the symptom? Is it possible to find liberation from the hidden internal confliction about success?

After a tour of Golden Gate Park, you’ll run down the famous Haight Street and through the Mission, Potrero and Mission Bay Districts.
