About this listen
A short, simple and instantly effective guide to feeling better no matter what life throws at you. With levels of fear and anxiety now running sky high, try these simple meditations, exercises and rituals to counteract your negative self-talk, soothe yourself into peace and calm, and ride the wave of each challenging emotion instead of being overwhelmed. Let Michael James guide you in using this period of enforced lockdown and seclusion to embed the good habits that will support your best life yet.
Feeling down, angry, or depressed? Turn to ''Feeling Low'' and find the meditation technique that best distracts you from negative feelings, whether that’s focusing on sounds or on comforting phrases or having a meditative shower or workout. Lacking energy or bored? Turn to ''Feeling Uninspired'' and get an emotional pick-me-up. Life seems great? Turn to ''Feeling Good'' and make the most of your high spirits, to activate your intuition, and create your ideal life by envisioning it.
What all the practices in this audiobook have in common is that they are easy to do and will help you step away from unhelpful mind chatter and appreciate what you have right now. This audiobook was previously published in print form as Lighthouse.

Each of us has experienced, at least once in his life, the feeling of awakening, as if he had been dreaming a moment before, like when we stop being lost in thought and return with our attention turned outward. The reality is that we live in a state of unconsciousness, but we believe we are awake; we believe we are the ones making decisions, but the truth is something else. This audiobook represents a modern key to personal awakening, full of simple, personal, and practical advice, with the hope that it will help the listener to approach a higher state of consciousness.

When you let go, you live intuitively. Everything flows, because you are no longer attached to things being a certain way, to being a certain person or always being right. What a relief. The irony is that when you feel stuck in any area of your life - career, relationships, purpose, health or money - letting go can seem very hard. You cling on for dear life just at the moment you need to take the leap. In The Power of Letting Go, John Purkiss explains why we should let go and how we can do it, using proven techniques to make things happen.

We've all had situations where our emotions got the best of us. Often, it's because we didn't realize what was happening until we were too far down the "emotional train" to change it. However, what you resist, persists. The best time to handle an emotion is when you first begin to feel and experience it fully. That way it won't keep popping up time and time again. By following these simple steps that the book offers to you, you'll start taking control of your emotions - and your life.

It puts a stain on your ability to think efficiently. The goal of the book is simple: to spread awareness about the importance of dealing with overthinking patterns.

As an alternative, you can still fall asleep quickly and get quality sleep each night with hypnosis and meditation.

If you’re not achieving everything you’d always hoped to, it’s time to make a change: Live the life you really want. Employee surveys have found that 23 percent of workers feel burned out more often than they don’t. This reflects a culture in which we must overwork ourselves to achieve our goals. Not only is this unnecessary, but it distracts us from understanding what our desires are in the first place.

The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.
