In this interview with Quinta Minuvida co-founder and host Rimi Chakraborty, Center for Human Flourishing founder Filipe Rocha talks about and explains what is the Cultivating Emotional Balance program and its curriculum, as well as offering some details on the upcoming CEB retreat at Quinta Minuvida, the Azores, in September 2021.
In this interview, Filipe shares how we can harness our emotions to cultivate balance in our lives. Emotions are not “good” or “bad”, but rather can be “constructive” or “destructive,” he says. Filipe shares how we can get out of being “gripped” by emotion.
He also explains what is the “happiness of being”, its 3 pillars, and how it can be cultivated (and not conquered) by everyone, as well as how it radically differs from the kind of hedonic happiness that keeps us always searching for more and more.
