A way forward...

In this 'cast, we go for a walk in the woods and I share my core values with you and share why it's important to be intimately familiar with your core values.

I have a little conversation with Theo the cat about paying attention.

I spent some time with Ken Wilber, Terry Patten, Adam Leonard, and Marco Morelli's enlightening book, "Integral Life Practice: a 21st Century Blueprint for Physical Health, Emotional Balance, Mental Clarity, and Spiritual Awareness."

One of the things I really love about the book is how they simplified the explanation of the AQAL to make it relatable to life in practice.

In a world full of distractions, it's sometimes hard to separate the signal from the noise. If you're seeking answers from your Inner Guide, you have to pay close attention because the answer can come to you from anywhere, at any time.
