  Recently released: the audiobook edition of the popular book,  The Seven Wisdoms of Life  by Shai Tubali. Book description: A Book of the Year finalist and one of the most comprehensive books ever written about the chakras and their role in human life, The Seven Wisdoms of Life is grounded not in esoteric theory but rather in the down-to-earth way we can consciously use the teachings of the chakras in order to become fully balanced and fulfilled human beings. The central idea of the seven wisdoms is that the chakras hold within themselves the seven lessons of life as a whole. Instead of trying to guess what our core understandings in life are, we can see it all reflected in the chakras, which are basically the seven layers of our psyche. With his exciting and accurate ways of observation, Shai Tubali leads the reader through each chakra's teaching and life-journey: a detailed description of the basic psychological themes and psychological reactions of imbalance; pr...

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...

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, lig...

Foreword  For most Americans, their lives center around the job they have. Strangely, it is the job that defines most people. When two strangers meet, one of the first questions invariably asked is, “What do you do?” Most people take a job because it pays well and has strong benefits such as health coverage. Most of the time the job they have is not what they would really like to be doing. Most people are working to have enough to retire some years or decades later or are working toward a goal they have set for themselves because someone said having a goal is very beneficial. This book is about my taking the jobs that came along because I wanted to do the work, not because of anything that came with the job. I did what I wanted to do and sometimes refused jobs that had a big salary, stock options, health plan, perks of homes and travel, but were not what I would like doing. I could never see why anyone would spend two-thirds of their life essentially working to make money, ...

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 y...

  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 s...

  Every journey of personal transformation begins with a moment—a decision, an event, or an awakening that shifts the course of one’s life. On May 10, history has repeatedly shown us that transformation isn’t just personal; it shapes nations, industries, and ideas. From Nelson Mandela stepping into leadership to the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, May 10 marks turning points that remind us that growth, change, and reinvention are at the heart of human progress. Just as these moments reshaped the world, our own journeys of transformation—whether through resilience, reinvention, or self-discovery—echo these larger shifts. Through the stories we tell and the lessons we learn, we uncover the power of transformation, both within ourselves and beyond. Check out the stories of these authors who share moments of transformation, transformative journeys, and potential paths for all. Sone are emotional transformations, some relational, some spiritual. All are personal.  Ar...
