Remembering Shim Sung

Because of the diversity of faculty here at UBE, not all of the staff have had previous training in Brain Education. This past weekend one of the professors who specializes in Eastern Philosophy and Thought took the Shim Sung workshop, a core Brain Education program that is offered around the world. He walked into the cafeteria, his face glowing and wearing a big smile.

Seeing his face reminded me of my Shim Sung experience and the joy of being part of others'. It also made me think that despite our differences racially, culturally, and otherwise, that people around the world share a common desire to know themselves and their true purpose better.

Shim Sung literally means "Finding True Self". In Canada and the U.S., it is often called "Self-Discovery Workshop". The goal of this two-day experiential workshop is to connect with your true essence--who you really are, beyond all of the labels and limits that you or others may have created for yourself. Shim Sung helps you shed these layers and experience the sense of true power and love inside all of us.

It is a powerful experience, not to be forgotten, and I was thankful to be reminded of mine and to witness someone else's joy in growing.
