An absolutely fabulous anime film if there ever was one, The Children who Chase Lost Voices (Aka: Journey to Agartha) is a story of letting go, and coming to terms with death, among other things. It is a powerful and deeply moving story, and one that fits right in with our other videos this week!

Everything in this world comes together at the right place and time. There is no such thing as a coincidence. Everything that happens to you and what you achieve comes with a purpose. 

In truth, even your personality is not your own. It is something that you share with the rest of the Universe. The alignment of the planets speaks so much about how your life will turn out. It will give you an idea of how your life would be like if you continue to do what you do. 

Did you know that your chakra chart will also reveal that the challenges that you encounter are meant for you? Depending on your zodiac sign, your chakra system is one of the most powerful things that are in control of your life. 

If you are looking into gaining more in-depth insight into how the world relates to what is happening to you, then here is a good read about your zodiac sign and how it affects your chakras.

What Does Your Zodiac Say About Your Chakras?

Do you consider yourself beautiful? While others may say that true beauty is internal, there is no denying how much the modern world has emphasized an individual's outer beauty. From cosmetics to beauty regimens, there are practically thousands of products out there that can help make you feel and look beautiful. 

The digital age seems to have instilled in us that beauty is something instant and shallow. It is reduced merely to what is physical that people are no longer concerned about what inner beauty is all about. Comparing one's self to another has become the norm. 

It's instantaneous enough that people scroll down their feed and begin to compare their lives to others. They start to see that others are happier than or more beautiful than them. The concept of beauty has become so strict who don't fall under one category find it hard to appreciate themselves. 

When Do You Achieve Real Beauty?

There is a saying that says, "Beauty is skin deep," but how...

The love that one shows for another shatters the ill-feelings that you have about yourself and eliminates the negativity that your team has about you, and by extension, their work. It more firmly sets the foundation of trust and respect, creating an atmosphere where people go above and beyond expectations.

Empathy And Compassion

Getting the most out of your team is as simple as showing them how much you care about them beyond the results that they produce. Contributing to this meaningfully for your organization—no matter the size—can be done with one daily fifteen-minute exercise of utilizing empathy and demonstrating compassion.

Compassion requires empathy towards another. Being seen through the lens of love and care is ultimately what every person wants in some way.

You can be a vehicle for that compassion by 1) having it within you and 2) demonstrating it tangibly and regularly. This consistency brings one out of the honeymoon phase as it gets people to trust you and...

Being angry at another person is only mad at yourself, and realizing this is only able to be digested and fully integrated through breath and humor. 

Why Do We Get Angry

People get angry for a variety of reasons, but typically it is because of an uncomfortable situation that seems to be repeating itself or because of strain in our relationships. There are four easy and simple steps to fall back in your better feeling self.

Step 1: Accept your anger

If we, in the moment, attempt to suppress the feelings that we have, we are telling ourselves that our emotions are not valid.

Step 2: Practice breathing through your anger

The breath must be practiced in times of peace and calm in meditation. If we are only focusing on your breathing when we are stressed and upset, then we will subconsciously associate the things. When my four-year-old daughter, Lincoln, gets angry, I have a beautiful practice to bring her back to her breath and finding her center. We've meditated together since she...

There is a special kind of magic that comes with every cup of tea. It's a kind of tea magic that the ancient Chinese practices believe in. For hundreds of years, the Chinese tradition believed in the healing power of tea. 

While the magic teapot may bring a cure to various illnesses, it is also something deliciously enjoyed during the afternoons. While people observe life as it happens before them, a good cup of tea makes them remember all the good things that have happened to them. 

But did you know that tea is also used for magical purposes? Back then, it was referred to as tea magic, and the practice is slowly gaining popularity in modern times. With the practice of witchcraft and the magic in every teacup, simple recipes can be made to bring about desired results. 

Tea Magic And Money

Who does not wish they had more money? Everyone hopes to get better luck in life. While most people say that every success entails hard work,...

Let us begin first with the Demiurge. The Demiurge is an ancient Greek and Gnostic concept describing a consciousness that is essentially the creator of the physical reality, but not the supreme creative force behind all things.

An excellent way to explore this idea is through the Matrix, a Science-Fiction story that suggests everything we think we know of as the real world is nothing but an illusion, a false world within which most are imprisoned, unable to identify what is real effectively. As people go about their day to day lives, they think that their world is real, but every individual is plugged into an artificial reality severed from the real world. While people suffer, there is a tremendous benefit to the ruling overlords, who were a form of AI in the film. As it relates to us, this AI is, in essence - the Demiurge. 

The Demiurge was described as a force, a deity, or a consciousness responsible for creating the physical world. However, in a way, it had imposed itself...

Have you ever gotten out of bed feeling as if nothing could ruin your day? Or are your days more about dragging yourself out of bed just to get ready for work? How you feel is a direct reflection of your state of mind. 

Self-esteem and self-confidence are the two things that you need to propel yourself towards a positive mood. If you are always anxious about how things work out, you are putting yourself under a lot of stress. Everything in life, no matter what you do or how they turn out, will always feel like it's going awry. 

At times when it feels like nothing is going right, it is your confidence that takes the strongest hit. But if you continuously remind yourself to live a life of gratitude, joy, and love, you will feel amazing from deep within. 

You will always have that positive mindset that will keep you going. You will move through the day with purpose and complete every task with utmost enthusiasm. All these are a part of learning who you...

 Meditation has always been known to develop the strength of the mind and spirit. The practice allows you to find your inner peace to help you work and think better and clearer. However, very little is known about how meditation can help develop a person's psychic abilities. 

When you begin your search about how to become clairvoyant, one of the first things is meditation. The practice does not only lead to spiritual awakening, but it also allows the chakras in the body to be open. This means that as it activates the eyebrow chakras, it also gives the person the ability to look into the future. 

If you are serious about psychic development, you will look into how meditation can be a fantastic tool. Experts say that there is nothing to lose about trying. 

What Do You Need To Know About Meditation

While you may have your doubts about it or perhaps a kind of resistance you can't explain, everyone who has tried meditation for the first time knows how...

What makes you happy? Often, people attach their idea of happiness to a particular outcome. And yet, they find themselves disappointed when things turn out that way. They begin to ask if there is some way they can be happy on their own.

Learning how to detach yourself emotionally may be one of the best gifts you can give yourself. You must learn to teach yourself to live without what you are longing for. That’s the only time you can indeed be happy. 

This paradox of life has made many people wonder if emotional withdrawal is the key to finding their ultimate happiness. When you recognize the truth that nothing or no one else can make you happy but yourself, that’s the only time you will see the difference in your life. But what does it mean to be detached?

Discovering The Art Of Detachment

The dictionary defines the term detachment as “the state of being aloof or objective.” You have to teach yourself to look at things from an objective...
