IDG Dimension 1: Being - The Relationship to Self
Cultivating our inner life and developing and deepening our relationship with our thoughts, feelings, and body are essential because they help us be present, intentional, and non-reactive when we face complexity.
Our connection to ourselves is crucial because it forms the foundation of our ability to navigate life's complexities.
