Mindful Intelligence is a focus on mindfulness, as it relates to creating and understanding the "self." Mindful Intelligence helps you evolve as a human being, by giving you the superpower of knowing what you're up to (and why) at all times. Believe it or not, this doesn't happen by default! In the Introduction, meet Delores, the cantankerous lady who gave the author a hard time in the 90's, and whose lack of self-awareness inspired this book. With 52 topics and illustrative cartoons, learn how everyone can benefit from Mindful Intelligence in everyday life. This book has a companion app that goes deeper into each of the 52 topics, one a week for a year. Mindful Intelligence and the Making of You has one main goal: to convince you (with both mindful intelligence and humour) that you could know much more about your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. Each moment people have choices they aren't aware of if they're running the "self" on automatic pilot, or with a stressed-out mind. Old habits like unconscious fears, defenses, and judgments can be as limiting as a prison if you're not aware of how they affect choices and quality of life moment-by- moment. Many people's minds have stress, fear, and negativity taking up space where joy and contentment could be. Enter Mindful Intelligence. Learn to work with thoughts and emotions -in the moment- during everyday actions and reactions. Mindful practice helps you build a strong sense of self by encouraging you to create thoughts, feelings, and actions from the inside-out (proactive), instead of the outside-in (reactive). It reminds you to keep an eye on the medium your life is being filtered through: YOU. Ultimately, Mindful Intelligence helps you fully appreciate life, while noticing how the self interacts with and creates that life. Mindful Intelligence is for everyone from beginners to seasoned practitioners, and is built on 25 years of mindful practice, and the idea of making the world a more mindful place, one person at a time.

With mindful intelligence and illustrative cartoons, learn to work with thoughts and emotions, "in the moment" during everyday actions and reactions. Part One of this book illuminates the wonders of Mindfulness and how they relate to "the making of you." Part Two shows how to work with over fifty attitudes and actions/reactions, each with a two page spread, with illustrative cartoon on the left, and description with practices on the right. The 52 topics help you think about how to evolve both inwardly (inner self) and outwardly (in relationships/actions). Cartoons are illustrated by the author to show the most important thing she learned about each topic, during 25 years of mindful practice. You may also choose an attitude or reaction to work on, and use more suggested practices in the back of the book.

An engrossing guide to seeing—and communicating—more clearly from the groundbreaking course that helps FBI agents, cops, CEOs, ER docs, and others save money, reputations, and lives. How could looking at Monet’s water lily paintings help save your company millions? How can checking out people’s footwear foil a terrorist attack? How can your choice of adjective win an argument, calm your kid, or catch a thief? In her celebrated seminar, the Art of Perception, art historian Amy Herman has trained experts from many fields how to perceive and communicate better. By showing people how to look closely at images, she helps them hone their “visual intelligence,” a set of skills we all possess but few of us know how to use properly. She has spent more than a decade teaching doctors to observe patients instead of their charts, helping police officers separate facts from opinions when investigating a crime, and training professionals from the FBI, the State Department, Fortune 500 companies, and the military to recognize the most pertinent and useful information. Her lessons highlight far more than the physical objects you may be missing; they teach you how to recognize the talents, opportunities, and dangers that surround you every day. Whether you want to be more effective on the job, more empathetic toward your loved ones, or more alert to the trove of possibilities and threats all around us, this book will show you how to see what matters most to you more clearly than ever before. Please note: this ebook contains full-color art reproductions and photographs, and color is at times essential to the observation and analysis skills discussed in the text. For the best reading experience, this ebook should be viewed on a color device.

Most of us believe that we are unique and coherent individuals, but are we? The idea of a "self" has existed ever since humans began to live in groups and become sociable. Those who embrace the self as an individual in the West, or a member of the group in the East, feel fulfilled and purposeful. This experience seems incredibly real but a wealth of recent scientific evidence reveals that this notion of the independent, coherent self is an illusion - it is not what it seems. Reality as we perceive it is not something that objectively exists, but something that our brains construct from moment to moment, interpreting, summarizing, and substituting information along the way. Like a science fiction movie, we are living in a matrix that is our mind. In The Self Illusion, Dr. Bruce Hood reveals how the self emerges during childhood and how the architecture of the developing brain enables us to become social animals dependent on each other. He explains that self is the product of our relationships and interactions with others, and it exists only in our brains. The author argues, however, that though the self is an illusion, it is one that humans cannot live without. But things are changing as our technology develops and shapes society. The social bonds and relationships that used to take time and effort to form are now undergoing a revolution as we start to put our self online. Social networking activities such as blogging, Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter threaten to change the way we behave. Social networking is fast becoming socialization on steroids. The speed and ease at which we can form alliances and relationships is outstripping the same selection processes that shaped our self prior to the internet era. This book ventures into unchartered territory to explain how the idea of the self will never be the same again in the online social world.

This text presents a methodical, organized approach to counseling students in emotional intelligence (EI) by detailing how to understand and direct emotions, while also keying counselors directly to the underlying emotional motivations behind the behaviors. Divided into four units, the book starts with an overview of emotions and continues to explore the nature of anger, fear, grief, and guilt. Chapters present both explanatory narratives and teen-centered activities to show how these challenging, uncomfortable feelings when unregulated may negate resiliency and lead to anxiety, bullying, depression, and teen suicide. Counselors and educators alike will benefit from the light, unexacting tone that encourages humor and levity and discusses how to handle difficult emotions without harsh and heavy overtones.

In Essentials of Emotional Intelligence, Dr. John Demartini puts into perspective how your perceptions affect your reality and why Emotional Intelligence is so important in the achievement of your goals and dreams. Your emotions are likely based on previous experiences, the subordination to outside ideals and norms that you’re “supposed” to live by, your own personal experiences, the fantasy you have made about your life that you dream about that may not even be real, and the real objectives that you hold inside of you. Emotional Intelligence is the ability to perceive and interpret the reality of life; respond accordingly with the various well-governed emotions; and measure, manage and use those reasonable emotions for communication, leadership, social development, and more. You must be able to monitor and govern both your perceptions and actions and keep them balanced. The ancient hermetic teaching said that spirit without matter is expressionless and matter without spirit is emotionless. Matter itself, deals with emotions and spirit itself is unconditional love. Love is not just happiness, love is attraction and repulsion. I like you. I dislike you. Emotions are either positively or negatively charged, such as happiness and sadness, elation and depression, infatuation and resentment. Learn how: Your emotions and subconsciously stored impulses and instincts about something when you’re five years old can still run your life 55 years later To equilibrate your emotions to liberate you from subjective bias and get to the truth You can manage your responses to people or events so you are able to master your life To maximize your communication skills, business opportunities, income, and relationship dynamics It’s time to master The Essentials of Emotional Intelligence. Let Dr. John Demartini show you how.
