There's a valuable insight in the difference of what kinds of diseases were killing us 100 years ago compared to today.

There's an empowering side to knowing this, and we can mitigate our health. Disease isn't entirely simply a 'lottery'.

The second of three insights today on the life coaching and personal development industry; there are actually TWO separate coaching and personal development industries, which have nothing whatsoever to do with each other.

The sum total of online advice and personal development, "self-help" content is so confusing and so bad, my assessment is that it will have a negative effect on you and everyone else - unless you're skilfully discerning the wheat from the chaff.

"No pain, no gain?" It's a no-no! And what's more, ridding yourself of this belief can liberate your relationship to your body.

Here's what I learned from a world class trainer of elite athletes (you can find his video on the Kissing Consciousness YouTube).

Do opposites attract? The saying would suggest they do. What kind of relationships last? How might we approach dating in this regard? As always, our awareness outranks our beliefs.

Whether you're in business, or in a relationship, understanding people and their worldviews can be invaluable. This model is the best you'll find. It's known as a 'Worldview of Worldviews'.

An encounter on TV show First Dates motivated this response. People have a right to remove themselves from any unpleasant (or worse) situation they wish to.

To understand life through a clearer lens, and make better, more informed decisions, knowing the difference between States of Consciousness and Stages of Consciousness will help immeasurably.

What is 'Receiving' - as a Consciousness? And how might it differ from receiving as a behavioural activity?

When we're in a moment of self-acceptance we're 'receiving' ourselves, and when we're in a moment of self-constriction we're trying to control...

Here's a cool perspective about our relationship to exercise.

This viewpoint can also enhance our approach to The Rate of Perceived Exertion (RPE) - and finding out 'sweet spot'.

This philosophy of exercise is very much after my own heart.

When we're feeling intimidated, but the other person has done nothing wrong...

This comes up enough that it needs addressing.

...They are so invested in their egos that they feel the need to control how they are perceived, and so miss out on much:

1) Growth

and

2) Healing.

This is so true - and what's more it's also key to doing Jungian Shadow Work to reclaim repressed aspects of one's true self - yet many people are more invested in their egos such that they don't allow themselves to be vulnerable...

Here's the next insight...

4. Positive thinking is not really thinking at all !!

This is why Kissing Consciousness calls it 'Positive (Not) Thinking'.

Negative thinking has lots of chatter and internal dialogue. But positive thinking has none. It's basically spontaneous action.
