  Excerpt from The Seven Wisdoms of Life  - Definition Undoubtedly, the Chakra system is the most known, most researched, and most accessible energetic layer. The first documentations of this system go all the way back to the ancient Eastern and Egyptian cultures, about four-thousand years ago. Simply defined, chakras are mediators of energy-matter interaction. The chakra system is the bridge between the physical body and the subtle bodies and also between the physical body and the vital life force of the universe. The chakras are the key energy centers of the whole subtle anatomy and may be regarded as our basic energetic body. As mediators of energy-matter interaction, they translate material energy into spiritual energy and spiritual energy into material energy. The main function of the chakra system is to translate spiritual energy into physical energy for the sake of physical and psychological wellbeing. Residing in the central confluences of the energetic nervous system, th

Male and Female Energy [of the Third Chakra] The male energy of the third chakra can be symbolized by the sword: a powerful force that can break through any kind of obstacle and move persistently towards a goal. It never wavers, for it has a tremendous aspiration and the energy to follow it. We need this male energy when we have a vision that we wish to manifest in the world of time and space. The female energy of the third chakra can be symbolized by the shield. Just as we need a sword, we need a shield: the sword is needed for offense, while the shield is needed for defense. So, the female energy equips us with a protective shield, which can actually push away any kind of pressure and over stimulation. It can equip us with stillness when someone offends us, and it can equip us with persistence when we are being pressured to let go of our authenticity. The Seven Wisdoms of Life was selected as a finalist for Book of the Year Award in 2013 and the Best Books USA Award in 2

  excerpt from The Seven Wisdoms of Life (Tubali) - Introduction Man is not just flesh and bone. By saying that, I do not mean to support abstract and romantic ideas such as the soul . On the contrary, I mean to stress a whole realm of physiological dynamics, which may be invisible to our outer eyes but nonetheless are active all the time. Invisible is not irrelevant, just like atoms are a necessity in the total understanding of matter. There is another anatomy for man, a subtler one, which envelops the visible plain of the physical body like invisible sheaths. This anatomy is extraordinarily important both for the complete understanding of our psyche and for the realization of the further evolution of our consciousness. In-depth inquiries into the nature of this anatomy have taken place in many cultures throughout human history—from the ancient Egyptians to the Mayans , from the yogic culture in Hinduism and Buddhism to the Jewish Kabbalists , and from Chinese medicine to the Th

  In today's shared blog post, Shai Tubali, author of the award-winning book, The Seven Wisdoms of Life , and A Guide to Bliss , delineates  5 Tips For Keeping Your Brain Youthful and Flexible .

A sharing  S ., 20 years old, completely inexperienced in spiritual practices and in therapeutic processes, after her first experience expanding a positive emotion.  When I was asked, at the beginning of the process, to revive the most positive experience in my life, the first image that came into my mind was the day on which I had parachuted for the first time. I had been waiting to jump from the tiny plane; my entire body was already outside of it, and I had felt sure of myself—happy, free and limitless. I had felt that it would be much better to be up in the sky than down on the ground. When I took the leap, it was like floating, and my entire body felt fresh and alive. I was particularly excited while hovering over the sea and seeing the green areas all around. I identified the emotion as “Freedom” and located it in my heart. It felt like confidence and also, lightness, as if all my cells were opening up. The shape was a circle; the color, pink; the feeling, lighthearted

  Shai Tubali approached us with the concept of a book about mind expansion, a topic he had been leading workshops on, after his first book with us, The Seven Wisdoms of Life , became popular and a finalist in the Book of the Year competition. As a publisher, having worked with him before, we knew what the tasks would be, including careful copyediting since English is not Shai's native language though he does a wonderful job of writing, i.e. producing literate text, which not all native speakers can do. So, the production of this book was almost routine -- except for the title. Up until almost the day of publication, he and we, together, were searching for a title that would work: short, clear, consistent with content, and appealing. Originally, the title was longer: hard to file, hard to look up, and clear but at what cost. Then, we played with making a form of the title into a subtitle, and that worked. Now, though, we really needed a title. Bliss came up very quickly, but what a

Practice: The Expansion of Positive Emotions  Expanding a positive emotion can be a wonderful way to start your day. However, it can be performed in almost any situation and at almost all times. As emphasized in the introduction, it is highly recommended to try out expansion, at least in your first attempts, with a friend guiding you. Important: whenever you see this mark, “…” it is your sign to pause for a few seconds in order to either receive a response or settle into and deepen a new state .  1. Sit in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Allow your entire being to relax more and more. Breathe slowly and deeply… You are about to enter into your innermost Self… to enjoy a state of self-knowing, which is the sweetest and most wondrous state possible… Now, from this relaxation, let the moment or time in your life in which you experienced the highest level of happiness, elevation, and limitlessness rise to the surface of your mind. Recall the situation within yourself.
