Hello, I'm Ivan: travel junkie, blogger, teacher, a student of life. Welcome to my little home on the net, where I hope to share ideas and insights to help you lead a deeply fulfilling life.
This is a journey of discovering both inner and outer freedom. Will you join me on this quest towards ultimate freedom? I write and talk about my experiences in: self-development, psychology, traveling full-time, living abroad, location independence, meditation, yoga, lucid dreaming, entrepreneurship, lifestyle business, language learning, and how to be in the now.
#selfdevelopment #conciousness #spirituality #selfrealizationToday's quote is by Sir Francis Bacon, “In charity, there is no excess”
If you are on a self-development or spiritual journey, much of that journey at times can seem selfish as you are mainly focused on yourself. This can be ok because in order to truly help others we must be able to help ourselves first.
This will also help us to relate to other people’s struggles and then we can be in a better position to help by having some personal experience and insight into their situation.

I think it’s safe to say that most of us will spend our whole lives searching. Searching for love, money, happiness, success, and many other worldly desires.
This search takes place mainly in our external world, a search that leads us further away from what we actually want and from who we really are. We feel that once we attain these worldly desires that life will be grand, everything will be ok, that we will be deeply fulfilled.
I think that many of us deep down know that things like money, becoming famous, becoming powerful, will be really nice but that ultimately it will not give us the peace of mind and deep fulfillment that we crave.

The title of today’s video is “How To Become a Leader: What Trump Taught The World”, but it’s actually based on an article I wrote a long time ago, which was “How To Become a Leader: What Hitler Taught The World”. It’s not my intent to discuss politics here, but if Donald Trump has done anything well, I think many of us will agree that he did a great job of implementing the main ideas that I discuss in the post.
The purpose of this video is to raise some awareness among people who would like to be a leader of some sort, to make you aware of the responsibility you will have, and to question what your true motives are and the possible consequences of your message. To possibly re-think what it means to be a leader. Do you even need to be a leader?

Today's quote is by William James, “Genius...means little more than the faculty of perceiving in an inhabitable way.” If you have watched some of my videos you will know how much I stress and talk about the faculty of attention. If you are new to my channel check out my video where I give an overview of the 3 levels of attention. I’ll put some helpful links in the description box below.

Today we’ll talk about increasing our ability of working with our sensitive energies, of getting more acquainted with recognizing sensation for what it truly is.
With learning to relax the body, emotions, and thoughts we are laying the foundation for our journey into our inner space. Our ability to perceive what’s going on inside us becomes more acute and vivid. When our body is no longer wasting its vital energy on unnecessary tension and strains the energy that keeps us in relationship with our bodies is naturally accumulated. Most people never advance on their self-development path because they simply don’t have the energy because our already low supply is wasted through various unconscious leaks we have developed like negative emotions and bodily tensions. If we were video game characters, at the end of our day our power bar would always be in the red. We just don’t have the resources to pursue more lofty spiritual goals.
Through our practice of deliberate sensing, we learn to come into contact and become grounded in our bodies through this sensitive energy.

Living From Presence: How To Really Enter The Present Moment: https://youtu.be/-Px1k1XLJ2A
Developing Presence 101: Relaxing The Body and Releasing Its Tensions: https://youtu.be/Yj6x1VzN874
Recently I made a couple of videos about living from presence, If you haven’t checked them out, I'll put the links in the description box. In the first video, I talked about the importance of grounding our attention in the raw sensation of the body, in the 2nd video I talked about the next step of learning to relax the entire body to get our energies flowing more freely, today we’ll talk about furthering our ability to calm our body.
Once we have gotten acquainted with learning to use our attention to progressively relax our whole body, we will try to go into a more thorough deeper relaxation. Our self-development journey is one where we learn to go from the gross to the very subtle.
The tensions at the coarser physical level of our body are usually the easiest for us to identify and to let go of. The next more subtle and deeper level of tensions that we need to relax is that of our thoughts, emotions, and will.

Today's quote is by Epictetus, “For if a person shifts their caution to their own reasoned choices and the acts of those choices, they will at the same time gain the will to avoid, but if they shift their caution away from their own reasoned choices to things not under their control, seeking to avoid what is controlled by others, they will then be agitated, fearful, and unstable.””
This quote highlights an idea we've discussed before, which is the importance of creating a life aim for ourselves. A long last aim that can serve as our guide and always point in us in the right direction for our life. Since my channel focuses on self-development and becoming more conscious, increasing our awareness can serve as a broad and long-lasting aim for our life. Anything that helps us move in the direction of becoming more mindful and aware is good and anything that takes us away from that aim we would consider bad.

Recently I made a video about living from presence, If you haven’t checked it out here: https://youtu.be/-Px1k1XLJ2A In that video, I gave a brief overview of how our spiritual journey is one where we go from the gross to the very subtle, and the importance of learning to ground our attention in the energy of sensation in our bodies in order to grow and feed our presence.
Today I’ll get a little bit into discussing the initial stage of developing contact with our body, with our body presence which is an essential beginning foundation to help us go deeper and higher into the subtle energies of our inner space. Developing our inner energy body of sensation will act as a container to attract and hold the next higher energy of consciousness.
