You feel like you suck. Your life doesn't work. You may be unemployed. You may be a university professor. You may have been beaten and abused. I understand. I lived your world for nearly thirty years.I was beaten with rods for ten of them. I was sexually battered in front of my high school graduating class.All this made me stronger.I am luminous now.It's no accident; I understand why this change happened.It did take me fifty years to fully understand all the pieces.I share these with you now.There's no bullshit.No massive intellect or philosophy is required.No positive thinking.No spirituality or religion.Just your own self that you were born with.I do use famous figures from philosophy and culture as examples, but as examples only.This book is for everyone.Eight people who found it are examined in depth — Harriet Tubman, Socrates, Viktor Frankl, Eckhart Tolle, and four others. Some arrived by falling. Some by forty years of ordinary mornings. None of them had what you are about to be given: a description of the mechanism, in plain language, with three practices that build it.You do not need to fall. You do not need decades.Two to five minutes a day. Three practices. Ninety days.The body learns what the mind cannot teach it. This book is the practice.Compliments of Kevin Cann, an autistic, retired navy veteran, published author, scientist, co-author with Dr. Jeffrey J. Kripal. Esalen institute instructor. I share this with you, not to impress you; but just to let you know that I have the brain cells required to do what I say that I did.
