The Five Wisdom Energies offer a radical method to work with your emotions. They are key to emotional transformation.

In this module, you will:

Discover where you get stuck, your work points

  • Practice the postures to enter into your psychophysical emotional landscape 
  • Study Buddhist psychology to understand how you create confusion 
  • Acknowledge your habitual stuck patterns, your shadow side 
  • Recognize patterns of aggression, grasping, ignoring, pride, and jealousy 
  • From the perspective of neurobiology, see how your past is coloring the present 

Practice different ways of working with your emotions

  • Working with the places that scare you, your fears 
  • Understand the techniques to both calm and embrace your emotions 
  • Embrace your energy with unconditional positive regard 
  • Use profound Tantric methods to transform ways that you are stuck

You will discover the hidden wisdom within your turmoil.

  • Transform deeply rooted confusing emotions into awakened insight
  • Discover that when your emotions are intensified, your wisdom is close at hand
  • Catch the precise moment you embrace—rather than reject—an emotion
  • See that the apex of your struggle is the apex of your brilliance
  • Align with your wisdom: clarity, warmth, insight, and effectiveness

Move from fixated, ego-driven emotions to their wisdom expression and see

  • Your anger is an attempt to assert your clarity

Five Wisdoms Institute Founder, Director and Principle Trainer


For decades I have been deeply interested in the essence of who we are and how we can bring out our best to serve the world. The Five Wisdoms have been the vehicle to bring together my training in Buddhism, meditation, psychotherapy, leadership, mind/body disciplines, movement, and the arts.

My primary interest, as presented in the year long Five Wisdoms Training, is to teach people to actively use the Five Wisdoms in their life and work. My books are The Five Wisdom Energies, a Buddhist Way of Understanding Personalities, Emotions and Relationships Natural Brilliance. I have taught internationally for almost 40 years at Buddhist centers and spiritual and personal growth venues. Formerly a professional dancer, I then trained in a Contemplative Psychotherapy MA, Authentic Leadership, and Tantric Buddhism.
