The sleep that comes with habit

Aristotle said that "we are what we repeatedly do" and most people read this as an argument for building good habits. But there is another way to read it that is worth thinking about: if you are not paying attention, what you repeatedly do is largely automatic, and...

Master your fate through one capacity

Here's an interesting quote from Neville Goddard: "Your imagination is able to do all that you ask in proportion to the degree of your attention. All progress, all fulfillment of desire depend upon the control and concentration of your attention. Attention may be...

The texture of a coherent inner state

In the last email we talked about how most people have experienced moments where something inside is simply coherent with a specific quality of internal agreement where there was no part of you arguing against what you were doing. The mind was not running ahead or...

What is freedom

Freedom is a word that gets used a lot in personal development, often loosely, often attached to outcomes like financial freedom, freedom from anxiety, freedom to do what you want. But in the context of magnetic and energy work, freedom has a more specific meaning,...

The silent cost of your mask

In the previous emails of last week (here and here) we looked at the difference between clearing a block and building a mask over it, and why so many people do years of energy work and still feel fundamentally unchanged underneath. And what is required is the radical...
