“Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy.” They say patience is a virtue, and it truly is the number one quality to cultivate in our lives because it ties in and is a by-product of all our self-development work.

Today our topic is on living from Presence. Our whole self-development journey is one towards a deeper understanding and embodiment of presence.

In recent years due to the success of the Secret, the law of attraction has enjoyed a mass revival.

On our journey of self-development, one of the key themes that you will find across all spiritual paths is that of purification...and specifically of the purification of our emotions.

We live in a culture of me, me, me! We all occupy a very small part of the world, we live in our own tiny bubble that doesn’t make any real contact with the greater world.

I think if you ask someone if they love themselves, a big majority will say that for the most part they do. The reality though is that many people only love the ideas, the images that they have of who they think they are. These images are very precious to us. They give us a sense of identity. If I have an image of myself of being an honest hardwork…

Distractions have a bad reputation. As adults in a distraction-rich world, most of us are trying to find ways to be more present and focused.

Today's quote is “I have an everyday religion that works for me.

In order to have this higher point of view, we need to learn to recognize and become established in our thought-free awareness.

We can see our thoughts, emotions, feeling…
