Cornerstone vs Capstone Marriage

Some people never say sorry. According to Esther Perel, this is because they have a strong sense of shame. But admitting one's mistakes and imperfections should not be a reflection of self-worth. In fact, being able to acknowledge and apologize for mistakes shows strength and vulnerability. By separating our sense of self from a perfect image, we can overcome the shame that holds us back from apologizing.

The Power of Apologies and Overcoming Shame

"Self esteem is your ability to see yourself as a flawed individual and still hold yourself in high regard"

Traditional sexuality was all about procreation. Modern sexuality is now often identified with performance: how many times, how many partners, and what types of sex. Sex has become something you do rather than something you experience.Esther Perel proposes a new mindset. Sex as an experience. "Sex is a place you go." So where do you want to go?<ul><li class="ql-align-justify">Seek deep spiritual union?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Experience deep connection?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Transcend daily life?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Surrender and be vulnerable?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Be naughty or kinky?</li><li class="ql-align-justify">Abdicate responsibility?</li></ul>Sex is never just sex. Sexuality is a code for our deepest emotional needs: our wounds, fears & aspirations.

Sex: A Place You Go, Not What You Do

Sexuality is a not a reflection of a relationship. It should not be assumed a loving relationship naturally leads to hot action in the bedroom. To Perel, sexuality and love run a parallel track. Eroticism has more to do with the joy of living & with feeling alive. It is a very personal expression of one's individuality, unburden by any external connection to another person.And while love does not imply eroticism, the opposite is more common. Changing the sexual dynamic in a couple will improve the relationship as well.

Esther Perel: How to Find, Build & Maintain Healthy Romantic Relationships

Murphy teaches that the subconscious mind is responsible for most of your thoughts, actions, and habits. It operates based on the beliefs and patterns ingrained in it, often without your conscious awareness. By understanding and influencing the subconscious, you can shape your life’s outcomes, as the subconscious directs your experiences based on your deeply held beliefs.

The Subconscious Mind Controls Your Life:

“Your subconscious mind controls all the vital processes of your body and knows the answer to all problems.”

One of the key principles of the book is that positive thoughts and visualizations, when repeatedly impressed upon the subconscious, have the power to manifest in reality. By consistently visualizing success, health, or happiness, you plant seeds in your subconscious that eventually bear fruit in your outer life. The subconscious does not distinguish between real and imagined experiences, so visualizations are a powerful tool for change.

The Power of Positive Thinking and Visualization:

“The only path by which another person can upset you is through your own thought.”

Autosuggestion is a method of self-hypnosis in which you consciously choose thoughts, affirmations, and ideas to feed into your subconscious mind. By repeating positive statements or suggestions, you can reprogram your subconscious to believe and accept these new ideas, leading to real-world changes in behavior, health, or success.

Autosuggestion and Reprogramming the Subconscious:

Murphy explains that the subconscious mind does not filter or judge the information it receives; it simply accepts what you tell it repeatedly, whether it is positive or negative. This is why negative self-talk or limiting beliefs can have such a strong impact. The subconscious acts upon whatever it is fed, so feeding it empowering thoughts and beliefs can create transformative results.

The Subconscious Doesn’t Judge – It Accepts What You Believe:

Faith is a cornerstone of Murphy’s teachings. The book stresses that your beliefs are what program the subconscious mind, and having unwavering faith in your desires or goals is critical for the subconscious to act upon them. Doubts, fears, and conflicting beliefs can block the manifestation of positive outcomes. Through deep belief and emotional conviction, the subconscious is mobilized to bring about the results you desire.

Faith and Belief are Key to Subconscious Programming:

Murphy discusses the strong connection between the mind and the body, suggesting that the thoughts and beliefs held in the subconscious can influence physical health. He believes that many illnesses and diseases are the result of negative thoughts or unresolved emotional conflicts. By changing these thought patterns, it is possible to bring about healing and physical well-being.

The Mind-Body Connection:

Fear and negativity, when allowed to dominate your subconscious, create barriers to success and happiness. The book emphasizes that you have the power to overcome fears and limiting beliefs by replacing them with constructive, faith-filled thoughts. By focusing on what you want rather than what you fear, you align your subconscious with positive outcomes

Overcoming Fear and Negative Thinking:

Murphy stresses that holding onto resentment, anger, or grudges can block the flow of positive energy in your life. Forgiveness is a necessary practice not only for emotional peace but also for clearing the subconscious mind of negative energy that can manifest in various forms of suffering. Letting go of the past and forgiving others (and yourself) allows the subconscious to work toward healing and renewal.

The Power of Forgiveness:

“Change your thoughts, and you change your destiny.”

“You can build radiant health, success, and happiness by the thoughts you think in the hidden studio of your mind.”

In The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, Dr. Joseph Murphy gives you the tools you will need to unlock the awesome powers of your subconscious mind. You can improve your relationships, your finances, your physical well-being. Once you learn how to use this unbelievably powerful force there is nothing you will not be able to accomplish. Join the millions of people who have already unlocked the power of their subconscious minds. I urge you to study this book and apply the techniques outlined therein; and as you do, I feel absolutely convinced that you will lay hold of a miracle-working power that will lift you up from confusion, misery, melancholy, and failure, and guide you to your true place, solve your difficulties, sever you from emotional and physical bondage, and place you on the royal road to freedom, happiness, and peace of mind.- Dr. Joseph Murphy

The Power of Your Subconscious Mind

Love the life you have while you create the life of your dreams. Don't think you have to wait for the latter to start doing the former.

Where you are is a result of who you were, but where you go depends entirely on who you choose to be.

Give up the need to be perfect for the opportunity to be authentic. Be who you are. Love who you are. Others will too.

Replace your judgements with empathy, upgrade your complaining to gratitude, and trade in your fear for love.

Be grateful for all that you have, accept all that you don't, and actively create all that you want.

Life isn't about wishing you were somewhere or someone that you're not. Life is about enjoying where you are, loving who you are, and consistently improving both.

They say misery loves company, but so does mediocrity. Don't let the limiting beliefs of OTHERS limit what's possible for YOU.

Don't worry about trying to impress people. Just focus on how you can add value to their lives.

The moment you accept responsibility for EVERYTHING in your life is the moment you tap into your power to change ANYTHING in your life.

Every single one of us already has everything we need to be the happiest we could ever be; it's simply up to us to remember that in every moment.

There is nothing to fear, because you cannot fail. Only LEARN, GROW, and become BETTER than you've ever been before.

Know that wherever you are in your life right now is both temporary and exactly where you're supposed to be. You have arrived at this moment to learn what you must learn so that you can become the person you need to be to create everything you've ever wanted for your life

Even when life is difficult or challenging-especially when life is difficult and challenging-the present is always an opportunity for us to learn, grow, and become better than we've ever been before.

Who you're becoming is far more important than what you're doing. And yet, it is what you're doing that is determining who you're becoming.

Your entire life changes the day that you decide you will no longer accept mediocrity for yourself. When you decide that today is the most important day of your life, and that now matters more than any other time because it's who you're becoming each day based on the choices you're making and the actions you're taking, that is determining who you are going to be for the rest of your life.

The average person lets their emotions dictate their actions, while achievers let their commitments dictate their actions.

Make bold moves toward your dreams each day, refuse to stop, and nothing can stop you.

Here are some thought-provoking quotes from this amazing book!

The Miracle Morning

- Serious depression and anxiety have increased in Western countries; multiple causes exist.

- The speaker initially believed depression was solely due to a chemical imbalance.

- Investigations revealed nine identified causes of depression, two biological and seven related to life factors.

- Most causes are linked to unmet psychological needs and social factors, beyond just biology.

- Loneliness, lack of job control, disconnection from nature, and unattainable psychological needs contribute to depression.

- Solutions lie in addressing life circumstances along with medication.

- Social prescribing and community connections have shown effectiveness in alleviating depression.

- Current culture promotes consumerism, shifting values away from meaningful experiences.

- Depression can serve as a signal of unmet needs or disconnection, not just a biological error.

- Effective relief requires societal shifts towards addressing deeper causes.

“Don't believe everything you think. Thoughts are just that - thoughts.”

Nguyen reminds us that our thoughts aren’t always facts. They are often just mental noise. Learning to distinguish between reality and thought is key to mental clarity.

Thoughts Aren't Reality

Worrying is like a rocking chair: it gives you something to do, but it never gets you anywhere.

Overthinking is one of the biggest causes of unnecessary stress. By getting trapped in endless cycles of worry, we create problems that don't even exist.

Suffering Comes from Overthinking

“The present moment is the only time over which we have dominion.”

Nguyen emphasizes the importance of being present. When we focus on the here and now, we detach from the endless stream of past regrets and future worries.

Mindfulness is the Key

“You have power over your mind—not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.”

Nguyen explains that we are separate from our thoughts. By observing them without attachment, we can better control our emotions and actions.

You Are Not Your Thoughts

“Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.”

True peace lies within us. By letting go of our attachment to thoughts, we can experience deeper tranquillity and joy.

Inner Peace is Possible

Now is the perfect time to break free from overthinking and take control of your life! 💡💪Don’t Believe Everything You Think by Joseph Nguyen gives you the wisdom to stop mental suffering and unlock lasting peace. 🧠🔑🚀 Don’t wait—transform your thoughts and embrace true mental freedom! 📖Grab your copy now:🌍 For International Readers: <a href="https://amzn.to/3XtxauO">Click here</a>🇮🇳 For Indian Readers: <a href="https://amzn.to/4e7LYGz">Click here </a>Start living a calmer, happier life! ✨🌸

Don't Believe Everything You Think

When your brain conceives of family dinner as a waste of time, it wont be able to reap its inherent benefits.

Perception Of Reality

Conceive free time as a chance to learn and practice new things, recharge batteries and connect with others - you will be able to leverage the power of that rest time and return stronger than before.

Moving The Centre Of The Mental Lever

Success is not about never falling down or even simply about falling down and getting back up over and over.

Breaking Perfectionism

Success is about using that downward momentum to propel ourselves in the opposite direction. It's about capitalising on setbacks and adversity to become even happier, even more motivated and even more successful.

True Resilience

It's not falling down, it's falling up.

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • An engaging, deeply researched guide to flourishing in a world of increasing stress and negativity—the inspiration for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time “Powerful [and] charming . . . A book for just about anyone . . . The philosophies in this book are easily the best wire frames to build a happy and successful life.”—Medium Happiness is not the belief that we don’t need to change; it is the realization that we can. Our most commonly held formula for success is broken. Conventional wisdom holds that once we succeed, we’ll be happy; that once we get that great job, win that next promotion, lose those five pounds, happiness will follow. But the science reveals this formula to be backward: Happiness fuels success, not the other way around.   Research shows that happy employees are more productive, more creative, and better problem solvers than their unhappy peers. And positive people are significantly healthier and less stressed and enjoy deeper social interaction than the less positive people around them.   Drawing on original research—including one of the largest studies of happiness ever conducted—and work in boardrooms and classrooms across forty-two countries, Shawn Achor shows us how to rewire our brains for positivity and optimism to reap the happiness advantage in our lives, our careers, and even our health. His strategies include:   • The Tetris Effect: how to retrain our brains to spot patterns of possibility so we can see and seize opportunities all around us • Social Investment: how to earn the dividends of a strong social support network • The Ripple Effect: how to spread positive change within our teams, companies, and families   By turns fascinating, hopeful, and timely, The Happiness Advantage reveals how small shifts in our mind-set and habits can produce big gains at work, at home, and elsewhere.

Shawn Achor is an American educator, author, and speaker known for his advocacy of positive psychology. He is best known for his research reversing the formula of success leading to happiness—his research shows that happiness in fact leads to success. Achor spent 12 years studying what makes people happy at Harvard University. He later authored The Happiness Advantage and founded the Institute of Positive Research and GoodThinkInc. His TEDx talk "The Happy Secret to Better Work" is one of the 20-most viewed TED talks.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES and LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER “Brilliant . . . riveting, scary, cogent, and cleverly argued.”—Beth Macy, author of Dopesick, as heard on Fresh Air This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting . . . The increased numbers, variety, and potency is staggering. The smartphone is the modern-day hypodermic needle, delivering digital dopamine 24/7 for a wired generation. As such we’ve all become vulnerable to compulsive overconsumption.   In Dopamine Nation, Dr. Anna Lembke, psychiatrist and author, explores the exciting new scientific discoveries that explain why the relentless pursuit of pleasure leads to pain . . . and what to do about it. Condensing complex neuroscience into easy-to-understand metaphors, Lembke illustrates how finding contentment and connectedness means keeping dopamine in check. The lived experiences of her patients are the gripping fabric of her narrative. Their riveting stories of suffering and redemption give us all hope for managing our consumption and transforming our lives. In essence, Dopamine Nation shows that the secret to finding balance is combining the science of desire with the wisdom of recovery.

Dr. Anna Lembke is an accomplished writer whose work has resonated with readers around the world. Dr. Anna Lembke has published several books that explore a range of topics, from fiction to nonfiction, and has received critical acclaim for the ability to weave compelling narratives. Dr. Anna Lembke's writing style is known for its depth and authenticity, and has earned quite a loyal following of readers.

Dopamine Nation

When we realize that someone is not good for us, no one forces us to stay with that person and continue to expose ourselves to their destructive energy.Surround yourself with people who believe in you, who are convinced of your power, who see the wonderful talent in you, who recognize the potential in you, who can connect with your visions and support them.Give yourself respect and recognition!

We are what surrounds us

We want those who have done bad things to us to pay for it. But they won't. We are the only ones to bear the consequences.We hinder ourselves from living our lives until we have forgiven.If we can't let go and hold on to our grief and thoughts of revenge, we will pay the bill all by ourselves.

Holding on to grievances will harm us

Through the crises and dramas we have overcome, we have become the wonderful person we are today. Past dramas and defeats in particular have often opened our eyes and led us back to where we could bravely and courageously take new steps.Hurdles help us to become stronger and more powerful. Only those who have solved many problems and crises in their lives can face new challenges relatively confidently and calmly and overcome them with ease.

Let crises be the seed for growth

Explore and reformulate negative self-images.Burn the negative images.Turn the positive images into daily affirmations.

7) Burn the strip of paper. Imagine thanking the people in question for all the lessons they have taught you in your life. You release them from your life without resentment. Be grateful to have had these experiences. You have become more mature and aware as a result. You say goodbye to these companions full of love and affection and wish them a wonderful life.8) Feel how it frees you, how you breathe a sigh of relief, how it opens up new spaces.9) Go to sleep with this new awareness.

The past can therefore be changed, especially in terms of what we make of it. Our future is shaped by the way we look at our past. The benefits we derive from this realization are entirely up to us.

It is up to you

We are all connected. What you put into the system will come back tenfold.

A practical guide to unlocking the powers of our DNA to manifest health, wealth, and happiness • Shows how our DNA communicates with those around us and attracts resonant energy--whether positive or negative--to us • Reveals groundbreaking scientific research on the influence of DNA on photons as well as the interactions between DNA and emotions • Provides practical exercises to remove negative influences, build positive visualizations of your desires, and accelerate the manifestation of your wishes Taking the law of attraction to an entirely new level, Pierre Franckh reveals how human DNA has a direct effect on the physical world around us--an effect we can consciously focus to manifest our desires. Sharing groundbreaking experiments on the influence of DNA on photons and on the interactions between emotions and DNA, Franckh explains how our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs, whether positive or negative, build a field of resonance around us. Through this quantum field our DNA is continuously communicating our unique vibration to those around us and receiving their unique oscillations in return. By focusing our intentions and removing negativity from our beliefs about ourselves, our past, and our future, we can use our DNA to communicate our thoughts and desires to the universe. Through focused thoughts and intentions we draw the same resonant energy to us, thus bringing our intentions and desires into manifestation. The author shares success stories from the thousands who have taken his seminars and were then able to attract a soul mate, heal themselves or loved ones, or build wealth, sometimes remarkably quickly. He also describes how he discovered the law of resonance through his own self-healing from a degenerative spinal condition. Franckh provides practical exercises to remove inner and outer negative influences that could be blocking your desires, build a positive visualization of your goals, and increase the power of your field of resonance for quicker manifestation. In this inspiring guide to the law of resonance, the author shows how the power to manifest health, wealth, and happiness is within each of us, waiting to be unlocked within our DNA.

Pierre Franckh

The DNA Field and the Law of Resonance

"The only thing standing between you and your goal is the story you keep telling yourself as to why you can't achieve it."

We often get in our own way because of fear, past hurts, or limiting beliefs. The book helps you recognize when you're self-sabotaging and why it’s happening.

Why We Self-Sabotage

"The wound is the place where the light enters you."

Unresolved emotional pain keeps you stuck. If you want to stop self-sabotaging, you need to heal from things that have hurt you in the past.

Emotional Healing

"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."

Change is uncomfortable, but it’s necessary for growth. You have to accept that discomfort is part of the process to become better.

Embrace Change

"In the end, we only regret the chances we didn’t take, the relationships we were afraid to have, and the decisions we waited too long to make."

You are in control of your life. Instead of blaming others or your circumstances, take responsibility for your own progress and success.

Transform your life with this quick The Mountain Is You summary!

THIS IS A BOOK ABOUT SELF-SABOTAGE.Why we do it, when we do it, and how to stop doing it-for good.Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.For centuries, the mountain has been used as a metaphor for the big challenges we face, especially ones that seem impossible to overcome. To scale our mountains, we actually have to do the deep internal work of excavating trauma, building resilience, and adjusting how we show up for the climb.In the end, it is not the mountain we master, but ourselves.
