Next week marks 23 years of practicing and teaching this stuff.

23 years! I’ve never done anything non-stop for that long.

Why Ascension? Why meditation and mindfulness?

Frankly, Mr Shankly, it saved my life.

This isn't a “living on the streets” story. But it solved something big – something I suspect you’re feeling, too.

I was struggling with a quiet desperation. I had the perfect life, yet I felt empty, confused, lost. This was not the success I was looking for.

My mind was in control. I’d drive to work past spectacular mountains, but my head was already at work, rehearsing imaginary conversations. I couldn’t switch off. I over-thought and over-worried everything.

The "good" version of me was a rare guest; usually, I was mostly borderline anxious and stressed. Not bad, but not amazing. I knew the real me was in there somewhere, but how the heck did I convince him to come forth?

I was going through the motions, haunted by the fear that this was as good as it would ever get.

“Is this it? Surely, there’s gotta be more?”

No great drama – but that is the problem, isn't it? Life is good, but not that good. The voice says you should be content, but the dots won’t join up.

That’s what Ascension gave me.

A reliable way past the mind and into the substance of life so I could be present and alive.

It cleared the static so I could tune into the signal and be clear thinking and effective.

It let me drop the load and be light again so I was appreciative of the small things and able to let go of the rest.

I could finally be that better version of myself.

And that, I say, is just as good as any inspiring rags to riches story. It’s worth its weight in gold.

If you’re where I was 23 years ago, trust me:

There is a way out. That lasting feeling of “not quite right” can be solved.

It’s not really about the external world. It’s about learning a different way of inhabiting it. It’s about finding an inner connection with something deeper than your mind.

It’s not just about calm, it’s transforming the way you do life.

That’s a skill you can learn.

And I can help. I’ve been there, I know what it involves, I’ve come through. When you’re ready, just ask. I would love to help.

Go well,

Arjuna

PS.

Consider coming to the next Ascension course, 3-5 July.

I’ll walk you through the exact tools and practices I use.

You’ll have something reliable to take you beyond the mind, help you be calm, present and positive, and also, fill the gap.

Get in touch for details.
