Information on how to start becoming a co-creator of your life

There is no information out there that has not been here since the beginning of time. Below isinformation beyond religion and is all encompassing. Every person can benefit from this wisdom and assist the journey of self discovery. I have dedicated much of my life searching for truth and these suggestions are the simplest ways to begin reclaiming your power.

First and foremost start with the Four Noble Truths:

1-understand the truth of suffering is attachment,

2-understand the truth of origin of suffering is desire,

3-understand the truth of the cessation of suffering is non-attachment,

4-understand the truth of the path leading to the cessation of suffering is wisdom, universal love, and unifying individual will to divine purpose.

Then, integrate the 8 limbs of Yoga:

1-Yamas (non-violence, truth-fullness, non-stealing, sense control, and non-attachment),

2-Niamas (purity, contentment, discipline, self study, release of all action to divine will),

3-Asana (physical conditioning, this doesn not need to be yoga, any activity that brings mind,

breath, and physical movement together releasing the chatter in your mind),

4-Pranayama (breath-work, purposeful breathing that can be done anytime and anywhere, bringing attention to your breath helps make you descisions based on clarity and not reaction),

5-Pratyahara (withdraw of the senses, becoming objective, sitting quietly in a place that has been prepared for no interuptions and is free from distraction, the space should be made pleasing, calming, and contain objects that bring positive energy),

6-Dharana (one pointed focus on an object, idea, or picture),

7-Dhyana (meditation, quiet reflection),

8-Samadhi (merging the one pointed focus and transcending, connecting with your inner knowing)
