Virtual “The Five Elements. Are You Fire, Water, Wood, Earth, or Metal?” with Grounded Goodlife, Velya Jancz-Urban and Ehris Urban, Morris Public Library Online, Wednesday, February 7, 6:30 PM.

This is a ZOOM event.

Unless you are super human or immortal, you have a primary element, a force within you, which creates a predisposition to certain behaviors. There are 5 elements: fire, water, wood, earth, and metal. Your element influences how you have lived your life and interacted with others (colleagues, bosses, friends, spouse and family members).

Imagine the power of being able to walk into any business or personal situation, instantly assess the personality types in the room, and know how to best interact with them. You will even understand the element of your mechanic, dentist, mother-in-law, waitress, or blind date! And, imagine acquiring this knowledge with a funny and frank mother/daughter duo!

You will learn:

-          the personality traits of each element 
-          how each element responds to stress 
-          why certain people get under your skin 
-          why some relationships are effortless 
-          why you excel at some things and struggle with others 
-          which elements are a good/bad match
