Consciousness Development

Having discovered so many facets of my identity, feeling empowered and determined, I took a step back to take stock of my life. I had returned to work after my stress leave with a new attitude. With my new eyes, I observed the prisons we have all created. I gazed at the confines I had created for myself, and through the bars, I observed the fellow captives around me. I sat with my soul’s purpose to empower and inspire. I had done the goal setting. Now was the action part to embody these in my daily life. One thing I knew for certain: my work on myself was not done.

We’re deluged with advice on becoming more productive and efficient and life hacks to optimize our days.

Respect, trust, and commitment are the cornerstones of a dedicated relationship between a teacher and a student. For a passionate student yearning to learn and understand the essence of a subject, they must demonstrate these traits before a teacher will take them under their wing. In this case, the teacher was Thomas Troward of Cornwall England and the student was Genevieve Behrend. He imparted his personal insight to the one and only pupil who could perpetuate this knowledge and share it with the world.

Stressed out. Burnt out. I was stuck in a loop that seemed to be repeating in my life. I felt domesticated in my thoughts, my life and my choices. At every turn of life I had been met with creative limitations, self imposed or otherwise. Did I really come to this Earth to live out this boring routine? I severely lacked inspiration and drive. I was so burnt out that I didn’t care for those either. One morning I woke up and I was done. A series of repetitive issues in a high stress job just broke me. I stopped caring. I didn’t want this anymore.

A longtime trauma worker, Laura van Dernoot Lipsky offers a deep and empathetic survey of the often-unrecognized toll on those working to make the world a better place.

What does money mean to you? Have you decided that money is more valuable than you? "Money is never the problem in our lives," says Gary Douglas. "It's about what we're willing to receive. And what we're willing to receive is just a choice." What are you choosing to receive? Are you choosing to have money in your life? What if generating money and having money was fun and joyful? What if, in having fun and joy with money, you receive more of it? What would that be like? Money follows joy; joy does not follow money.

Every year, we are given a fixed number of days. Some days pass us by without leaving a trace and some days we remember forever. Do you remember your first kiss? Or how the first rays of the spring sun feel? Or how about the best meal you ever had? These memorable experiences are characterised by intensity of perception, depth of feeling or sense of profound significance causing them to stand out in our mind and involve a heightened sense of wonder and awe.

Le découragement est le problème majeur de notre temps. Là où nous pourrions avancer, nous baissons les bras. Là où nous pourrions être victorieux, nous partons perdants. On nous a fait croire que nous devions être dans le contrôle permanent, dans l'efficacité absolue. Mais la vie ne se contrôle pas, elle ne se gère pas.

We live in a world ridden with conflict. Everyone knows about it and only a select few have any motivation to do anything about it. In general, people stick to their point of view believing that everyone else is wrong and most never stop to consider that each individual acts upon their "right way", that is, their individual values. This misunderstanding in society of the way we think, not what we think, or how we think, leads to conflict which manifests in personal relationships, business relationships, community struggle, and even conflicts at the global level.

We spend vast amounts of time acquiring confidence in narrow technical fields: quadratic equations or bioengineering; economics or pole vaulting. But we overlook the primordial need to acquire a more free-ranging variety of confidence - one that can serve us across a range of tasks: speaking to strangers at parties, asking someone to marry us, suggesting a fellow passenger turn down their music, changing the world. This is a guidebook to confidence, why we lack it and how we can acquire more of it in our lives.

Analogy is the core of all thinking. This is the simple but unorthodox premise that Pulitzer Prize-winning author Douglas Hofstadter and French psychologist Emmanuel Sander defend in their new work. Hofstadter has been grappling with the mysteries of human thought for over 30 years.
