The Cost Of Happiness and Optimum Health
"Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them.
They can only be solved on a higher level." - Albert Einstein
A great part of the money that people work is spent to create a comfortable frame around their life to give them an experience of pleasure, success and physical comfort. Driving a nice car can easily cost $600 or $700 or more per month, a nice home $2,000, $3,000 or $4,000 a month. It’s easy to notice how quickly a large portion of one’s earnings and therefore a large percentage of one’s time and efforts are focused on external comforts and pleasure.
For many their externally directed activities are really an attempt to get what they really want, peace of mind, happiness and feelings of love throughout each moment of the day. Yet sadly the temporary pleasures of externally motivated activates last for only a brief time while those activities are occurring. Too often the stress and pressures leading up to that pleasure and the stress and pressures waiting for you after the pleasurable moments can overshadow the pleasure itself. Often there is an awareness that the current pleasure won’t last and more work and sacrifice will now be needed to save up enough to afford the next vacation, piece of jewelry, house or car payment, special night out or whatever that pleasure is. Such is the nature of worldly pleasures as they are all temporary and demand ongoing sacrifice to maintain.
Fortunately, there is another way – a way to obtain joy and peace that is not based on external circumstances and things but is based on internal knowledge, truth and personal freedom.
This is what the 7 Keys principles are all about: learning how to gain the knowledge and techniques to be spiritually, mentally and emotionally balanced, peaceful and happy. This is done while optimizing your physical health and obtaining a near permanent state of feeling good regardless of external circumstances or events.
The 7 Keys is really about learning the fundamentals of the “owner’s manual”, if you would, of being a human being with multiple levels of consciousness and existence. Its purpose is to develop inner comfort of knowing how to maintain inner peace, happiness,
The 7 Keys trains you in how to keep yourself emotionally healthy and stable, mentally calm and relaxed, and balanced and integrated, regardless of the techniques used. And the 7 Keys can be utilized for less than 70 cents per day! Even the premier coaching with myself costs less than 10% of the average cost of taking psychotropic medication for ADD/ADHD or depression!
What would it be worth it to to maximize your peace, happiness and health each day and really know how the mind, spirit, body and emotions interact? What's the value to learn how to competently use effective tools to maximize your health, balance and well-being? Can you imagine waking up every morning to truly enjoy your life in a deep and meaningful way while living from your heart and not through images, hopes, expectations and demands from their head?
Karl Jung said “Enlightenment is not about embracing the light, it’s about embracing your darkness and bringing it to the light”. It’s about burning your seeds of ignorance buried in the unconscious mind-body, replacing worldly knowledge with knowledge of the Self and purifying all wrong minded ideas and beliefs held.
This is the underlying principle of the the 7 Keys to enable someone to live an extraordinary life and meet their highest potential. Be willing to face, embrace and trace the unloving parts of yourself, and to work for correction and healing.
Yet to do this sometimes a friend or therapist has to challenge another's illusion, to shake them up and wake them out of their trance to look within and find out what is really happening. Only by awakening from a trance can it be faced, embraced and replaced with a real awareness of being pure spirit and experiencing life this way. It occurs when you grow to the point that you can acknowledge your pure spirit of life without attachment, grievance, fear or anger and this is reflected at each of the five levels of consciousness that constantly is your existence. The 7 Keys helps wake up many from their limiting belief trances to unleash the power within.
Unfolding of the Hearts' Desire
My approach has always been that when heart felt exuberance is shared it is an effective way for a person to help themselves and others. Heart directed action has been found to create many healthy effects to the body, mind and spirit. It helps someone experience peace and wellness in all five levels of consciousness in a deep and meaningful way.On the journey to the optimal wellness, individuals learn to ignore their ego mind's fears and worries and trust inner movement of spirit to guide them. Living through the head obsessively thinking is a very common method in the control freak environment we live in. Yet this approach brings conflict and disappointment. No one ever teaches people to trust your heart and follow the messages it gives without question. I acknowledge the scientific research of how the heart has its own neural network like the brain it sends out an entraining energy that is 500 times more powerful than the brain! It fact there are a total of three brain, in the head,the heart and the gut!
I teaches how to trust one’s heart “brain” when there is a heart felt desire. This IS the key to manifestation! All flows easier when it is the hearts intelligence which is directing actions and not your ego. This is why clearing away all interference to inner peace is essential and special forgiveness processes helps access our core power.
In the 7 Keys I teach that to reach your hearts destiny you must refuse to listen to the naysayers and believe your heartfelt instincts!
My background has been quite dramatic and demonstrated this. Once I felt my hearts inspiration, I sold all my belongings and began a spiritual walkabout to find my truth. Through this, I left my profession of the previous 15 years, where I had made millions of dollars, to reconnect to the feelings in my heart that I had been repressing. What I really longed for was to help myself and others another way to health and happiness.I stopped taking the anti-depressants I was taking and returned to a daily meditation practice. This began to open my mind and heart to a completely new way of living. It was quite amazing really as all the struggle of my life dissolved and things started flowing like a stream down a mountain. Instead of dreading going to work and living an existence of constant stress, work became an outpouring of the love in my heart. I finally got what Kahlil Gibran meant in The Prophet when he said that "All work is empty save when there is love....Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only distaste,it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms from those who work with joy."
All this happened to me nearly 25 years ago, and I have never looked back nor regretted one moment. When I started this path, complementary and alternative medicine was relatively unknown. Today there is in the US Government's National Institute of Health’s, Department for Complementary and Alternative Medicine. There are now magazines and professional associations dedicated to this and the Wall Street Journal regularly writes about the billions of dollars now being spent in this rapidly growing field. I actively work with the Palm beach County health Department and Palm Beach County Schools Wellness Task Force.I have traveled nationwide do trainings in hospitals to teach their senior executives how to use the 7 Keys in their life, hospital and for their patients.
Each day I take as a new adventure as he delves into the ever expanding aspects of the five levels of consciousness to uncover how to remove the interference and help others re-balance themselves to find the peace, health and happiness they always longed for.
Integrating the Higher and Lower Knowledge of Existence
This is the role of education: to unravel the profound mystery of life in order to facilitate the liberation of each human being and to provide the framework for the life-affirming norms and values of a compassionate civilization.
American psychologist Abraham Maslow noted: "When the only tool you own is a hammer, every problem begins to resemble a nail." To direct humanity in finding the appropriate tool that ends psychological dis-eases, Albert Einstein provided this clue, "Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them. They can only be solved on a higher level."
My primary objectives has always been helping individuals to help themselves return them to balance and wholeness at spiritual, mental and emotional levels. This in turn helps them make healthier decisions to attune their body to fitness and wellness. It is well known how when a person suffers from unhappiness,guilt or dissatisfaction there has a resultant tendency to make poor food choices, be lazy and use unhealthy means to avoid and escape their dilemma like overuse of alcohol, pot and high carb foods. This often leads to taking anti-depressants, anti-anxiety and ADD/ADHD drugs in an attempt to control these issues yet as they don't address the real underlying issues and only makes matters worse. As the imbalances continue there are escalating problems caused by their psychotropic medications. These drugs weaken the nervous and immune systems and perpetuate a wide array of biological breakdowns. My integrative approach in the 7 Keys used Quantum Embodiment philosophy which encourages personal responsibility, self-awareness and self-management. This approach will be the foundation of the new paradigm for prevention of chronic illness and maintenance of health.
