Finding Peace in Difficult Situations
What if you could feel more peaceful about something that is troubling you and clearer about what could make it better?
Course One begins September 29, 2026.
Maybe it is a conversation you keep replaying.
Something someone said or did.
A situation that continues to frustrate or worry you.
Something you did (or didn’t do) that you wish had gone differently.
Or an experience from the past that still affects how you feel today.
Course One gives you a gentle, supported way to begin finding greater peace and clarity in situations like these and to learn how to use Finding Peace for yourself.

About This Course
Every difficult situation contains the seeds of a better life for you. We simply need to uncover them.
Difficult emotions can help us understand what matters to us and what we would rather experience instead.
As that becomes clearer, new possibilities for greater peace and meaningful change can begin to emerge.
Learn Finding Peace for yourself.
Course One takes you step by step through Finding Peace and gives you opportunities to use what you are learning with real situations from your own life.
Each part is taught and demonstrated before you practice it yourself, with Glenda’s guidance and support along the way.
The aim is for Finding Peace to become something you feel increasingly comfortable and confident using for yourself.
What Course One Can Help You Develop

- Find greater peace and emotional relief when something is troubling you.
- Understand what your emotions may be showing you about what truly matters.
- Work more peacefully with difficult situations involving someone else’s actions, your own actions, or things you regret.
- Become more comfortable and confident using Finding Peace in situations from your everyday life.
- Trust that there is always a path to peace, no matter how dark things look.
Your Course One Journey
Each session builds on the one before it, taking you step by step through Finding Peace while giving you opportunities to experience, practice, and apply what you are learning to situations from your own life.
Finding Peace: Where to Begin

Advanced Strategies: When the Roots Go Deeper

Putting It All Together
Bring the Finding Peace process together using a real-life situation, with coaching and support as you practice moving through it.
Letting Go of Regret

Bringing Peace Into Everyday Life
Bring your learning together and explore how to use Finding Peace more naturally in everyday situations.
What if you can't attend a session?
You’ll get the recording of the teaching portion of the session, and an opportunity to apply the teaching to a real-life situation of your own using a personalized worksheet created just for you. If you’re not on the call when I’m providing appreciation and suggestions on the work that participants have done on that session’s topic, I’ll send you a private video recording with appreciations and suggestions specifically for your situation.
Note: Both appreciations and suggestions are made in a way that’s designed to maintain each person’s privacy and confidentiality, while supporting the learning of the whole group by sharing general principles that can be applied any time we’re seeking peace.
Finding Peace becomes more natural with practice.
Understanding Finding Peace is the beginning. Becoming comfortable using it when something difficult happens takes practice.
That’s why Course One gives you opportunities to try what you are learning with real situations from your own life, with Glenda’s guidance, coaching, and support.
You don’t need to know how to do this already. You are here to learn.
With practice, Finding Peace becomes increasingly familiar and natural to use in everyday life.
Course One is the beginning of your Finding Peace journey.
Course One focuses on learning to use Finding Peace for yourself.
Course Two builds on that foundation as you explore how to create meaningful and lasting change.
Course Three focuses on learning how to thoughtfully support others to find greater peace and clarity.
Together, the three courses create a progressive learning journey, with each one building on what came before.

Meet Your Guide: Glenda Mattinson
For more than 20 years, Glenda Mattinson has been helping people find greater peace in difficult situations and discover ways forward that feel better in their lives and relationships.
Throughout Course One, Glenda will guide you step by step through Finding Peace, using teaching, demonstrations, guided practice, coaching, and support.
Her approach is warm, thoughtful, and practical, creating space for you to learn at your own pace and become increasingly comfortable using what you are learning.
You can begin with one situation.
It doesn’t need to be the biggest situation in your life. It might be a conversation you keep thinking about. A frustration. Something someone said or did. Something you did (or didn’t do) that you wish had gone differently. Or simply something you would like to feel more peaceful about.
That one situation can become a place to begin learning Finding Peace for yourself.
Every difficult situation contains the seeds of a better life for you. Let’s uncover them together.
