Powerful Insights For Personal Evolution

The human body has a unique chemical balance for optimal health. When that balance is disrupted, the body becomes stressed. Acute stress is a perfectly healthy response in the body but when it becomes chronic or overactive it can result in major health issues resulting in the breakdown of cells. In today’s lesson we will learn exactly how the stress response works, so we can take charge over the health of our bodies.

We have a limited amount of energy. When this energy is consumed by physiological responses caused by stress, then our cells are vulnerable to breakdown as they don't have sufficient energy to recharge and rejuvenate. In today’s lesson, we will learn about the importance of stress management, expanding your awareness on how to tune into your body's control system.

The term "Relaxation Response" was coined by Dr. Herbert Benson, professor, author, cardiologist, and founder of Harvard’s Mind/Body Medical Institute. This response is defined as your personal ability to encourage your body to release chemicals and brain signals that make your muscles and organs slow down and increase blood flow to the brain. In today’s lesson we will learn a very effective practice to induce the relaxation response.

Did you know? It’s estimated that 80% of metabolic energy comes from breathing and only 20% comes from food. With our bodies so reliant on oxygen for energy it’s no wonder that poor breathing has been linked to almost every type of medical ailment. The body's natural reaction is to take short and shallow breaths, when any degree of stress or tension is present. In today’s lesson we will learn about the importance of efficient breathing.

By listening to the sensation of our breath, in every situation, when we feel love and fear, it allows us to become more aware of the connections between parts of ourselves that ordinarily escape our attention. By sensing the way our breathing changes in relation to different experiences, different moods, different emotions, we start to gain more control over our state of being. In today's lesson we will train our breathing to become longer, fuller and more efficient.

Breath retention is a powerful tool to regulate mental chatter and improve concentration. When you are yearning for a new breath during a hold, you are devoting all concentration to this activity— promoting presence and training the mind to focus intensely on one thing at a time. In today’s lesson we will be practicing holding the breath while in a meditative state.

In today's lesson we will put all our breath training to work. We will practice advance breathing techniques to improve our lung capacity and oxygenate the body. This is a very challenging lesson, but with practice, it will reprogram the breath to be deeper, fuller, and more efficient.

There are also mysterious powers associated with the breath that remain mostly unheard of in western civilisation. The ancient masters of India developed a science around certain breathing techniques that when applied methodically over a period of time would give specific results, such as the control of unconscious mechanisms. In today's lesson we will learn about the life force energy called "prana".

On a personal level, chi is the life force that makes a human being totally alive and present. The human body radiates chi energy that can be harnessed and channeled. Increasing the body's chi levels can make a person more vibrant and healthier. In today's lesson we will learn how to build up chi in the body.

There is a natural cohesiveness between all the major systems in the body; we can call this homeostasis or quiet simply put inner balance. When we experience mental, emotional, or physical stress we trigger of the flight or fight response in the body which releases a cascade or stress hormones, knocking the body out of balance. In today's lesson we will enrich our insights by going over the lesson learned so far.

Scientists now know that the brain can change itself. It is a plastic living organ that can change its own structure and function.This revolutionary discovery is known as neuroplasiticy, considered one of the most important developments in modern science's understanding of the brain. In today's lesson we will learn how the brain can remold itself through the model of neuroplasticity.

The past was an experience not a sentence, to make you a better person. It is very easy to become a prisoner of redundant thought and emotional patterns. In today's lesson we practice a powerful meditation that is designed to help you reprogram old belief's — shifting your energy to a new state of being.

Stress isn't always a bad thing. In fact, eustress is actually a positive stress. Eustress can be beneficial and is actually necessary for our wellbeing — whether you are exercising, skydiving, going on a first date, or experiencing any other kind of excitement, all fall under the umbrella of eustress. In today's lesson we learn how the brain handles different levels of stress.

Three very effective ways to promote neuroplasticity in the brain is through gratitude, self-love, and peace. The energy associated with these three elements have the power to rewire the brain to create new levels of thinking. In addition, they promote health and vitality in the body. In today's lesson we practice a meditation that cultivates the healing force of gratitude.

The power of self-love can heal and relax the body. Find acceptance and forgiveness of yourself and build confidence and courage by learning how to love yourself, just as you are. In today’s lesson we practice a meditation that combines powerful affirmations with the Hawaiian Hoʻopo-nopono practice.

In mindfulness we focus our awareness to be present in the moment - being aware of all sensations that arise in our experience in a non-reactive way. Metacognition is similar as it requires you to be aware of your cognitive processes - quite simply put, being aware of your inner speech or thoughts — a key component of reprogramming your brain. In today’s lesson we learn about the art of metacognition.

Having a healthy diet is important, but how about your emotional diet? Your emotional diet matters. Emotions are energy and what you feel has a major impact on the health and wellbeing of your body. In today’s lesson we learn about the importance of our emotions and how to change inner narrative to promote a healthy mind and body.

Epigenetics is an established science that shows us that we can reprogram our genetic structure by changing our attitudes, perceptions and beliefs. We can reprogram our genes in ways that empower and propel us into new levels of self-mastery. This is done by sending new information that changes the way cells behave and communicate with each other. In today's lesson we learn the magic of epigenetics.

Through the science of epigenetics, we now know that we are not doomed by our genetic inheritance. A change in human consciousness can produce a direct change in our gene expression. We have the power to influence our genetic destiny through perception. In today's lesson, we explore how to monitor our inner perception and harness the power of focus.

When the body is in a deep state of relaxation, and the attention is focused in the bodies aliveness, energy is transferred into the cells. Vital life force energy is increased and the body is flooded full of consciousness. In today’s meditation, we go on a journey to find your place of healing.

We all on some level want to live healthy, happy lives. But why is it that some people get sick before their life expectancy? Trapped negative emotions are a contributor to grave health conditions. When the body is harbouring trapped emotional energy from the past, it can manifest into anxiety, stress, and in some cases, serious health issues. In today’s lesson we learn some key points on the science of disease, highlighting the work of the great biologist, Bruce Lipton.

Getting to know yourself in order to improve connection to your true nature on a journey to gaining self-awareness is a great way to obtain self-knowledge. The space within us is not an empty space. It is fully of energy, self-discovery, and healing. In today’s lesson we learn how to connect to our inner space.

Inner Space is a paradox, and only when you completely go beyond the mind will you enter an infinite level of space healing that is full of potential. But first we must learn to go beyond our thoughts. Habitual thinking patterns can lead to mental exhaustion and leave us vulnerable to annoying cycles of thinking and feeling that serve no real purpose with our true being — our true nature. In today’s lesson we learn how to transcend the physical and connect to the metaphysical.

Realising you have the ability to choose thoughts, realising you are greater than your thoughts, realising that your true power is in your ability to focus your attention, is one of greatest triumphs of your personal evolution as a creative being. What we choose to pay attention to is what will manifest not only in our field of experience, but also into our reality. In today’s lesson we learn the science of mental rehearsal.

Your observation shapes the world around you. Your mind has the power to affect the reality around you. At any point you can look around and visualize the experience you want and really start to move into this space. Soon, as you do this with intention, your mind and body will start to physiologically respond— coming into alignment with your rehearsal. In today’s lesson we do a powerful mental rehearsal meditation that helps us come into alignment with our desired future.

For today’s practice you will need a pen and a notepad to write down bullet points to help your rehearsal practice. Writing down the journey to achieve our dreams creates footprints in your neural networks, priming the brain to take action. In the previous lesson we rehearsed your desired future, and in today’s lesson we start by writing the best course of action to achieve our goals.

Mental rehearsal is a great way to prime the brain for success. But there is a universal power within you that has a direct connection to a greater intelligence. Only a mind that can see past the limitations of physical reality can truly harness the power from the greater intelligence. In today’s lesson you learn the universal law of creation, to assist you in creating the future you desire.

Meditation allows you to separate yourself from the outside world. By closing your eyes and disconnecting from your external environment, you are removing the stimulation. When you sit your body down and teach it to stay perfectly present in the moment, by not identifying with anything that confirms your identity, you start to experience a state of being that transcends time. Today’s lesson is full of insight and tools to help you master your mind.

Although the space between us seems to be empty, it is actually full of energy. In fact, quantum physics has validated that this space is part of the zero-point field or the quantum field and is actually vibrating with immense energy. Our eyes simply cannot perceive this energy, but it definitely exists and on the deepest level of our being, we are connected to this energy. To finish our course, we go deep into the space of transformation.
