Shoftim: 08/31/11 Heart to Heart: Growing Emotionally What can you do if the person you love is not responding to you? Is there any way to reach a blocked heart? Do you have emotional intelligence? For example, are you able to work your way through an emotional impediment and open yourself up? As adults we identify with intellectual development and growth -- with the capacity of our minds to grow and expand. We are capable of learning and acquiring new knowledge and experience, something that happens all the time. But can our hearts also grow and expand? Do we know how to grow emotionally, or are we stuck with whatever set of feelings we were born with and acquired? Can we even control our emotions, or do theycontrol us? If you are having difficult communicating with aloved one, do you have ways to access deeper emotional resources? Please join Rabbi Jacobson as he discusses how this month of Elul is a special time to examine the way we love; a time to learn how to expand our emotional horizons. Discover how your heart --not just your mind -- has deeper layers, and has the ability to expand in unimaginable ways. Learn how to plumb the depths of your heart and discover new possibilties that will surprise you.
