Consciousness

‘Man is an intelligent conscious self, functioning simultaneously on several levels of complexity, physical, vital, emotional, and mental, and integrating constantly with the universal energies of Nature itself.’

What life is, and what it means to be a whole functioning healthy organism, is a process involving balancing our energy system, and the integration of all the levels at work within us as each cell and organ knows its own function. When we are harmonised we connect to higher levels, an almost untapped resource of higher energies we can then harness for our own vitality, development and growth – the awakening of self-awareness as we seek to explore more of our own nature and connect with our soul. This brings insight, spiritual awareness, compassion and creativity, raising us beyond our five physical senses to the higher states of perception and clairvoyance (or clear seeing).
