Unraveling Constructed Emotions with Barrett, Maté, Levine—and Resolving Them via Self EmRes®

On August 30, Mensa Philippines presents a Brown Bag session unlike anything you’ve experienced before.

What it’s about
Discover the true nature of your emotions through the lens of pioneering research—from Lisa Feldman Barrett’s theory of constructed emotion and Gabor Maté’s trauma-informed insights to Peter Levine’s somatic experiencing and the latest neurobiology. You’ll understand why you react the way you do, why others respond differently, and how emotions can be both ally and obstacle. Then, in an experiential Self EmRes® (Emotional Resolution Technique) session, you’ll learn to fully process and release ingrained emotional patterns, restoring balance and resilience.

Our Speaker
Cynthia Syjueco’s journey into complementary medicine began when she experienced the transformative effects of Pranic Healing as a patient. Captivated by its potential, she went on to train as a certified Pranic Healing practitioner—and never stopped learning.

Since then, Cynthia has deepened her skill set with certifications in BodyTalk, BodyIntuitive energy balancing, and Jungian Coaching. Most recently, she integrated micropulse stimulation (a micro-electric acupuncture technique) into her offerings. Today, her practice weaves together energy healing, somatic methods, and depth-psychology principles to help clients achieve holistic well-being, emotional resilience, and lasting balance.
