The 2nd paragraph in Ch 20.

“The planning kept my mind off my own troubles, and gave me the same sense of mission Bertrand spoke of. Every reasonable creature knows that the worst thing any creature can do all day is think of themselves. If there are troubles in your mind, you should think first of the troubles of others; it is the essence of lib-eration. That is, freedom begins the moment we forget ourselves.”

Very interesting! I appreciate Rory’s sense of humor as he slowly unpacks the psycho-logical reasonings behind what makes people be more likely to donate/purchase something

Heavy but necessary to understand the start of the civil rights movement and the racism that still continues today in America.

Great! It’s a simplified language version of The Power of Now. Thinking is the root cause of all psychological suffering and thoughts are inherently positive. Lovely concepts!!

It’s extremely fascinating, how much the author is able to communicate with her dog. Especially outside of the buttons.

I have a very hard time communicating non-verbally with my dogs. There are a lot of times that I catch myself saying the same thing over and over and over to them.

I think I am letting my brain take over instead of my heart. Today, I will work on communicating with them through my heart.

Wow! The past two mornings, I have done chakra chanting meditations. Each morning, different vowel sounds for them. I definitely feel calmer and more alert. When I’m chanting the vowels, I can hear harmonics from my voice.

I do have to warm up my voice before I practice I think. My throat feels strained. It probably doesn’t help my throat chakra either, lol!

I’m finally on the page that gives an instruction on how to use vowel sounds to resonate the chakras! I’ll make sure I’m prepared before embarking on.

Absolutely incredible! I’ve always been interested in harmonies and this gives me a vast understanding of why it has drawn me to it. I’m excited to learn more and to explore my own inner harmonics with my voice.

Just the introduction. I love the symbolistic art mixed in with the words about recovery and dis/connection.
