Taking Charge of Your Life with Francesco Garri Garripoli
submitted by: admin on 10/16/2013
Personal empowerment is all about taking charge of our lives, yet "taking charge" is not really about taking control.

To build that trust is to learn about where our real power lies. This...

The Meaning of Community with Francesco Garri Garripoli
submitted by: admin on 10/17/2013
Aboriginal thought of self is that we are part of our community. The "bigger than me" includes everything and everything I do to the planet I do to me. We must redefine our self as community. It includes as food, water, air, soil and all that there is. As society moves more and more away from nature, we lose our sense of interconnectedness. ...
The Meaning of Time with Francesco Garri Garripoli
submitted by: admin on 10/17/2013
All we have is the present moment. Time is created by our perception and it is a critical factor in healing.

Reality is constantly appearing and disappearing - modern physics is proving this scientifically. Our perception of an experiement effects its outcome....

submitted by: admin on 11/23/2024
Chi (Qi) is something that does not exist in this dimension. The quantum physicists are beginning to understand aspects of Qi as their current research is concurring with what the ancient sages in China and elsewhere have always held to be true.

The Power of Love and Attitude with Francesco Garri Garripoli
submitted by: admin on 11/23/2024
When we look at self as heart, love becomes the embracing mechanism. Love is the binding force that acknowledges our truth. There is a dance between love and separation in today's world.

Treating Hypertension Using Mindbody Psychotherapy
submitted by: admin on 10/17/2013

What Does the Future and 2012 Hold for Humanity with Francesco Garri Garripoli
submitted by: admin on 10/17/2013
According to ancient wisdom based on healing practices such as Qigong, when we worry about the future, we give away our Qi (chi).

Many indigenous calendars, such as the Mayan one pointing to 2012, show that we're...

Orgone energy exists everywhere;...
