This course aims to help students become aware of their feelings, to accept responsibility for them and to develop effective coping strategies.
Feelings are an important, natural and necessary part of us. To be 'in touch' with our feelings is to be attuned to the reactions we experience as we go through life. To acknowledge how we feel inside ourselves (even negative feelings like anger and jealousy) is important to our physical, emotional and social well-being.
