Free Your Energy: The Path to Freedom, Mental Clarity, and a Life of Enjoyment is a book that explores many emotions and ideas. It gives the reader stories, reflection points, mantras, and acts as a guide to discover their own path to freedom. Mental freedom is a topic schools need to talk about, it’s something we should talk about with friends, and we should use introspection to discover what traps us from reaching our potential. There are some ideas, places, and people that we must let go of in order to be free. There are also, connections that we need to improve, enhance and add value to. Humankind has always searched for meaning and purpose, and for a lot of us, that question creates stress and anxiety. In Free Your Energy, we discover our own path to have mental clarity, to create and cultivate a deeper sense of purpose and we figure out how to simply enjoy life. The writer, Sylvester McNutt III, does not tell you how to think or feel; he simply uses an introspective storytelling style to spark your brain, allowing you to create your own path. Free Your Energy will water, nourish, and challenge you. Free Your Energy hopes to be the spark that helps you create the life you deserve.Explored Writings:Chapter 1: Break Up with the I-Am-Not-Enough Mind-Set — 6Chapter 2: Imagine Feeling Like You Are Already Free — 45Chapter 3: Understanding Fear Is the Key to Freedom — 88Chapter 4: Free Your Mind from Thoughts and Beliefs That Hold You Back — 116Chapter 5: Understanding Conflict: A Path to Freedom and Reduced Ego — 144Chapter 6: To Be Free You Must Detoxify Your Life — 206Chapter 7: Cultivate Meaningful Connections — 231Chapter 8: How to Stop Overthinking and Trust Your Intuition — 274Chapter 9: Honor Your Energy — 303

An acclaimed philosopher shows us how—in an age of unprecedented anxiety—we can find fulfillment by embracing the present and living more fully in the now. He is "the perfect guide for a course correction in life" (from the Introduction by Deepak Chopra).  The brain can only assume its proper behavior when consciousness is doing what it is designed for: not writhing and whirling to get out of present experience, but being effortlessly aware of it. Alan Watts draws on the wisdom of Eastern philosophy and religion in this timeless and classic guide to living a more fulfilling life. His central insight is more relevant now than ever: when we spend all of our time worrying about the future and lamenting the past, we are unable to enjoy the present moment—the only one we are actually able to inhabit. Watts offers the liberating message that true certitude and security come only from understanding that impermanence and insecurity are the essence of our existence. He highlights the futility of endlessly chasing moving goalposts, whether they consist of financial success, stability, or escape from pain, and shows that it is only by acknowledging what we do not know that we can learn anything truly worth knowing. In The Wisdom of Insecurity, Watts explains complex concepts in beautifully simple terms, making this the kind of book you can return to again and again for comfort and insight in challenging times. “Perhaps the foremost interpreter of Eastern disciplines for the contemporary West, Watts had the rare gift of ‘writing beautifully the unwritable.’” —Los Angeles Times

The publication of this book is an event in the making. All over the world scientists, psychologists, and philosophers are waiting to read Antonio Damasio's new theory of the nature of consciousness and the construction of the self. A renowned and revered scientist and clinician, Damasio has spent decades following amnesiacs down hospital corridors, waiting for comatose patients to awaken, and devising ingenious research using PET scans to piece together the great puzzle of consciousness. In his bestselling Descartes' Error, Damasio revealed the critical importance of emotion in the making of reason. Building on this foundation, he now shows how consciousness is created. Consciousness is the feeling of what happens-our mind noticing the body's reaction to the world and responding to that experience. Without our bodies there can be no consciousness, which is at heart a mechanism for survival that engages body, emotion, and mind in the glorious spiral of human life. A hymn to the po
