To Change The World
•Change yourself
• The only person over
which you have
authority

Step 1 - The Body:
• Immerse yourself in a Forest
Spa Experience or the closest
thing to it for at least 40
minutes at a time at least 3
times per week
• Walking in wooded areas,
breathing clean air and eating
good food –
– this is your best fuel to help you
solve all the problems of life
May 12, 2015

The Body:
• For maximum benefit your walking
should be in a forested area and not
interrupted by vehicles
• The best urban route is a tree lined route
that allows you to walk in the middle of
the road
–more that 75% of the time.
May 12, 2015

The Body:
• Make sure that you walk with a
Smart Phone.
• You will need a device to capture
the hints and outright solutions
as they appear around and
within you.
• Yes, you will need
– writing, audio, photo and video
capabilities.
May 12, 2015

The Forest Spa Experience
Immerse Yourself in a Forest for Better Health
• Most of us sense that
taking a walk in a forest is
good for us.
• We take a break from the
rush of our daily lives.
• We enjoy the beauty and
peace of being in a natural
setting.
May 12, 2015

How Do Forests Make Us Healthier?
• Numerous studies around the world are exploring
the health benefits of spending time outside
– in nature, green spaces, and, specifically, forests
May 12, 2015

How Do Forests Make Us Healthier?
• Recognizing those
benefits, in 1982, the
Japanese Ministry of
Agriculture, Forestry
and Fisheries
–even coined a term
for it: shinrin-yoku
May 12, 2015

Shinrin-yoku - Forest Bathing
• This means taking in the
forest atmosphere or "forest
bathing"
–the ministry encourages
people to visit forests to
relieve stress and improve
health
• Research is showing how
spending time outdoors and
in forests makes us healthier
May 12, 2015

How Forests Boosts Our Immune System
• While we breathe in the fresh air, we
breathe in phytoncides,
–airborne chemicals that plants give off to
protect themselves from insects
May 12, 2015

• Phytoncides have antibacterial and antifungal
qualities which help plants fight disease
• When people breathe in these chemicals,
– our bodies respond by increasing the number and
activity of a type of white blood cell called natural
killer cells or NK
May 12, 2015

• These cells kill tumor- and
virus-infected cells in our
bodies.
• In one study, increased NK
activity from a 3-day, 2-night
forest bathing trip
– lasted for more than 30 days
• Japanese researchers are
currently exploring whether
exposure to forests
– can help prevent certain kinds
of cancer
May 12, 2015

Spending Time Around Trees And Looking At Trees
Reduces Stress, Lowers Blood Pressure & Improves Mood
• Numerous studies
show that both
exercising in forests
and simply sitting
looking at the trees
–reduce blood pressure
–as well as the stress-
related hormones
cortisol and adrenaline
May 12, 2015

Looking At Pictures Of Trees
• Has a similar but
less dramatic effect
• Studies examining
the same activities
in urban unplanted
areas
–showed no
reduction of stress-
related effects
May 12, 2015

Using the Profile of Mood States Test
• Researchers found that forest
bathing trips significantly decreased
the scores
– for anxiety, depression, anger,
confusion and fatigue.
• Stress inhibits the immune system,
– the stress-reduction benefits of
forests are further magnified.
May 12, 2015

Spending Time In Nature Helps You Focus
• Our lives are busier than
ever with jobs, school, and
family life
• Trying to focus on many
activities or even a single
thing for long periods of
time can mentally drain us,
–a phenomenon called
Directed Attention Fatigue
May 12, 2015

The Power of Nature
• looking at plants,
water, birds and
other aspects of
nature
–gives the cognitive
portion of our brain
a break,
• allowing us to focus
better and renew our
ability to be patient
May 12, 2015

Patients recover from surgery faster and better
when they have a "green" view.
• Hospital patients may be stressed from a variety of factors,
including pain, fear, and disruption of normal routine.
• Research found that patients with "green" views
– had shorter postoperative stays,
– took fewer painkillers,
– had slightly fewer postsurgical complications
• Compared to those who had no view or a view of a cement
wall
May 12, 2015

• These benefits include:
1. Decreased blood glucose
levels in diabetic patients
2. Decreased stress
hormones
3. Decreased heart rate
• Results compiled from several related
studies show a wide range of positive
benefits from a walk in the woods
May 12, 2015

4. Decreased blood
pressure
5. General relaxation of
the body
6. Boost to the immune
system
(reduced cortisol)
7. Decreased depression
May 12, 2015

8. Decreased anger
9. Decreased fatigue
and confusion
10. Increased
psychological vigor
11. Improves mood
May 12, 2015

12. Increases ability to
focus, even in children with ADHD
13. Accelerates recovery
from surgery or illness
14. Increases energy level
15. Improves sleep
May 12, 2015

Immerse Yourself in a Forest for Better Health
• Research is showing
that visiting a forest has
real, quantifiable health
benefits,
– both mental and physical
• Even 5 minutes around
trees or in green spaces
improves your health
• Think of it as a
prescription with no
negative side effects
that's also free
May 12, 2015

Step 2 - The Spirit:
• Refresh and
maintain you
connection with
the Supreme Being
• Some say
–'take it to the Lord
in prayer'
May 12, 2015

Religion or Spirituality?
May 12, 2015

Religion vs. Spirituality
May 12, 2015

The Spirit:
• It is important that you observe
solutions as they pop up all around
you
• Remember it is less important what
you say
–but much more important that you
listen (with all of your senses)
–‘speak Lord, thy servant heareth’
May 12, 2015

Step 3 - The Mind:
• Engage in "Replay" and
"Cognitive ReOrientation"
May 12, 2015

Step 3 - The Mind:
• Let's examine “Replay" –
– Walk back through the various critical events that
got you to the present situation/position
• Stop the tape at various points
• Project the various different paths you
could have taken
– and how significantly they would have altered
the outcome.
May 12, 2015

Step 3 - The Mind:
• Now to "Cognitive ReOrientation”
– Using the event that you are faced with and
creating alternate outcomes that result in you
being the winner...your head, your story, you win.
– Create as many alternative outcomes as you can
possible imagine from this point going forward
May 12, 2015

Cognitive ReOrientation
• Walk through all of them,
–enduring the pleasures and the pain
• This will make you more receptive to
whichever path that unfolds
–or that you ultimately are put on
• Test them all
May 12, 2015

Cognitive ReOrientation
•Remember that
–you were chosen for this battle
– The Supreme Commander knew that you
were the best for the job
•Failure is not an option.
•So do it and then write the SOP
–the training manual,
–for those to follow.
May 12, 2015

Make Your Own Myths
• We are strongly wired to believe
in things that both make sense
and feel right. (Seth Godin)
• Go right ahead
–Create the reality that will work for
you
May 12, 2015

Match Your Thoughts to What You Want
• Act as if what you intend to manifest in life is
already a reality.
• Eliminate thoughts of conditions, limitations,
or the possibility of it not manifesting.
• If left undisturbed in your mind and in the
mind of intention simultaneously,
– it will germinate in the physical world.
– (Dr. Wayne Dwyer)
May 12, 2015

Remember
• “We have all that we need
to create what we want
–because all the resources
we need are in our minds"
• Theodore Roosevelt

Step 4: Dear to Dream
May 12, 2015

The Epistemology of Overstanding
Believe
Feel
Think
May 12, 2015

Visioning or Wishful Thinking?
• The ability to ‘wish’ has equipped us
with a most powerful capability
–but this process is best channeled by
what is called
•Thoughtful Wishing
• With this we can create visions
May 12, 2015

Step 4: Begin With A Bold Vision
• One Year down the road
– “Life is one big road with
lots of signs.
– So when you riding
through the ruts, don’t
complicate your mind.
– Flee from hate, mischief
and jealousy.
– Don’t bury your thoughts,
put your vision to reality.
– Wake Up and Live”!
• - Bob Marley
May 12, 2015

What is Your Bold Vision?
May 12, 2015

Time to Dream Big!
• “If your dreams
do not scare you,
they are not big
enough.”
• Ellen Johnson Sirleaf,
– “This Child Will Be Great: Memoir of a
Remarkable Life by Africa’s First Woman “

From DREAMS to GOALS
May 12, 2015

Step 5:
Set Your Goals – 100 Days Away,
DEFINED AND MEASURABLE
May 12, 2015

Dream – Goal - Plan
May 12, 2015

Set Your Goals – 100 Days Away,
• “It is for us to pray not for tasks
equal to our powers,
–but for powers equal to our tasks,
–to go forward with a great desire
forever beating at the door of our
hearts as we travel toward our distant
goal”. -
• Helen Keller
May 12, 2015

I AM doing the best with what I have,
here and now, everyday.

Step 6: Make Your Plans
• One month at a time
–in as much details as possible.
• “Our goals can only be reached through a
vehicle of a plan, in which we must
fervently believe,
– and upon which we must vigorously act.
• There is no other route to success”.
– Pablo Picasso
May 12, 2015

Step 7:
Make The Best Decisions – Each Day
Based on all spiritual, mental
and empirical information.
May 12, 2015

Make the best decisions – each day
• If this is not what you are doing,
–then we call it wishful thinking.
• “Stop the habit of wishful thinking
and start the habit of thoughtful
wishes”
–Mary Martin
May 12, 2015

Step 8: Use The Law of Attraction
Tristan Loo

Create A Vision Board
May 12, 2015

The Science Behind
The Law of Attraction
• We attract into our
lives anything that
we give attention
to,
–regardless whether
it be positive or
negative
May 12, 2015

From a psychological view,
• the law of attraction can be best
explained by the information
filtering system of the brain
–known as the Reticular Activating
System (RAS)
May 12, 2015

The Reticular Activating System

MATURITY MEANS THAT
We Know When To Hold
& When To Let Go:
May 12, 2015

May 12, 2015
WHEN TO HOLD & WHEN TO LET GO:
• The archer sets up for the kill by pulling
back and holding the bow,
–but the accuracy of the shot is
determined by
• knowing just when to let go
• Both components are critical

Let Go
• When I let
go of what
I have, I
receive
what I
need.
– Tao Te Ching
5/12/2015 80www.SlideShare.net/LSemaj

Knowledge & Wisdom
• "Knowledge is learning
something new every day.
• Wisdom is letting go of
something every day”
–Zen Proverb
May 12, 2015

Knowledge & Wisdom
May 12, 2015

MATURITY MEANS THAT
We Know How To Mix
Past, Present & Future:
May 12, 2015

Life Is Best Tackled With A
5:3:2 formation
• 50% - on shaping the future,
• 30% - on perfecting the present,
• 20% - reviewing and learning
from the past
• You cannot safely go forward by spending all your time
viewing life through the rear view mirror.
May 12, 2015

Step 9 - The Heart/Emotions:
• This is the hardest
component,
–your emotional side
• This will progress in the
manner of a sine wave,
– just remember the words of
Della Manley,
–"Sometimes you win,
sometimes you win”
May 12, 2015

The Heart/Emotions:
• You will have some good day,
– some bad days
• and some very bad days,
• but ultimately you will have some great days
May 12, 2015

YOUR SPIRITUAL WORK TOOLS
May 12, 2015

PSYCHOLOGICAL IMMUNIZATION
AGAINST RELAPSE
Create A Daily Top Ten List
“Why it is good that what has happened to
you happened now and in this manner”
May 12, 2015

Psychological Immunization
• Continue creating a daily top ten list until
you have exhausted the process,
– at least 7 days.
• Then draw from these your ultimate Top 10
Reasons:
– “Why it is great that what has happened to you,
happened now and in this manner”
• This list should now be your daily mantra
May 12, 2015

PROBLEM TRANSPOSITION
Transpose it by creating reasons as to
why it is good or
ways to make it good
You experience an issue that you can't change
and you initially experienced as a problem
May 12, 2015

Quantum Healing
Your thoughts, feelings & words can heal or kill.
May 12, 2015

STEP 10. YOUR INTUITION
Time to Tune In
May 12, 2015

Your Intuition
• You have done your homework
• The intuition will help you navigate faster
through much of unstructured data
• It can work around gaps and conflicts in
the available information
• Remember
– even intuition can be misled if too many of your
facts are wrong or missing
May 12, 2015

What Does Your Intuition Tell You?
•Intuition is an advanced pattern
recognition device.
•Your subconscious mind somehow
finds links between your new situation
and various patterns of your past
experiences
May 12, 2015

What Does Your Intuition Tell You?
•Your subconscious mind remembers the
patterns learnt.
•It can rapidly project your new circumstances
onto those patterns
–and send you a message of wisdom
•These message comes as your inner voice
–They will most likely be experienced as
gut feelings
May 12, 2015

Convert Your FEARs
• To
–Questions for The Universe
• Expect
–Answers
–Interventions
–Reorganization of The Cosmos
May 12, 2015

When I Ask QFTU
Questions For The Universe
•I Get AFTU
• Answers from the universe
• Sometimes I get more than answers;
unimagined solutions to the point of a cosmic
reorganization of the information and energies.

Daily Practice
• Conscious Right Action
• You will evolve to
–Spontaneous Right Action
May 12, 2015

Spontaneous Right Action:
• Spontaneous right action is the right
action at the right moment.
• It's the right response to every
situation as it happens.
• It's the action that nourishes you and
everyone else who is influenced by
that action.
May 12, 2015

Spontaneous Right Action:
• At the moment you consciously make a
choice, pay attention to your body and ask
your body, “
–If I make this choice, what happens?”
• If your body sends a message of comfort,
that's the right choice.
• If your body sends a message of discomfort,
then it's not the appropriate choice.
