Introduction

The concept of the "seat of the soul" originates from various spiritual and philosophical
perspectives, where the center of an individual's being, and essence reside. It is often
described as the source of one's emotions, thoughts, and beliefs, as well as their
connection to a higher power or universal consciousness. Some identify it as the heart,
others as the third eye or pineal gland, and some even suggest it resides in the brain or
the entire body itself.

The seat of the soul is often seen as a place of inner wisdom and guidance, where
individuals can tap into their intuition and access a deeper understanding of themselves
and the world around them. It is believed to be a source of inner strength, resilience, and
inner peace.

The concept of the seat of the soul has also been explored in the fields of psychology and
neuroscience. Some researchers associate the seat of the soul with certain areas of the
brain responsible for self-awareness, introspection, and empathy. It is believed to be
where one's actions and behaviors stem. Understanding and connecting with the seat of
the soul is seen as a path toward self-realization, personal growth, and living a purposeful
life.

Overall, the seat of the soul is a powerful and multi-faceted concept that has been widely
embraced in spiritual and personal growth circles. It invites individuals to look within
themselves and connect with their innermost essence, to live a more meaningful and
fulfilling life.

In this book, I propose several daily spiritual, brain, physical, and health-related routine
techniques, and practices that can help in restoring the person’s inner peace and optimizing
his/her brain’s productivity. These techniques have been inspired by several readings in
self-development, psychology, neuroscience, and biographies of some genius brains such as
Steve Jobs and Albert Einstein. To achieve a successful outcome, self-discipline is
required continuously until these techniques become habits.

During difficult and stressful times, I used to select a specific technique and try it
several times for many days. Then, I paid attention carefully to any change in my thoughts,
behaviors, and feelings. If the change is positive, I would adopt it as a daily routine.
Otherwise, I would try a different technique. This approach was effective in regulating all
the negative emotions and maintaining a peaceful mental state. I would recommend
following these steps in selecting the best techniques in your soul’s recovery journey.
Power of intention

The power of intention is the driving force behind our thoughts, actions, and ultimately our
destiny. Intention is more than just a mere thought or wish. It is a deliberate and focused
energy that can shape our reality. Our intentions are like seeds that we plant in the fertile
ground of our soul, and with the right nourishment, they can grow into something beautiful.
The Power of intention is manifested in its ability to attract. This is because our thoughts,
beliefs, and emotions are aligned with the universe’s law of attraction. When we carry
positive intentions, the universe responds by bringing situations, people, and opportunities
to achieve positive outcomes and experiences. However, when the intentions are negative,
we may attract things that are not in the best of our interests. Therefore, we should be
self-aware that our emotions and intentions come from a place of self-love and compassion.

The power of positive intention has helped me personally to get my Ph.D. in computer
science. In this journey, I set my mind continuously on this achievement using several
techniques such as visualization, strong focus, prayers that reinforce my belief, and
actionable plan via hard work. This intention has unlocked endless opportunities during my
academic experience. For example, I got good financial support to attend conferences and
multiple assistantships. This also helped me to persist in the face of several setbacks
such as some research papers’ rejections. Every time I face a hurdle, I take some time to
release my negative emotions. Then, I started to refocus my energy and intention toward
completing the success of my journey using some techniques that I previously mentioned.

Furthermore, the power of intention can also transform our lives. When we set our
intentions on growth, healing, and self-improvement, we open ourselves up to endless
possibilities and potential. Our intentions have the power to change our mindset, shift our
perspective, and ultimately change our reality.

When we set clear intentions, we activate the creative power within us and open ourselves
up to the possibilities of transformation and growth. Implementing intentions involves
setting specific, actionable goals and creating a plan to achieve them. This provides a
structured framework to follow through on our intentions and eliminates the need for
decision-making in the moment of action.

Here are some key points about the structured framework to manifest our intentions:
 1. Clarity: The first step in harnessing the power of intention is to be clear about
what you want to achieve. Be specific and ensure that your intention is aligned with
your values and desires. For example, you can set your intention about getting a
specific position in detail including the name of the position, the industry, the
salary expectations, and the company’s culture. This clarity about your desired job
can drive your brain to start to take the necessary actions to achieve this goal.
2. Belief: This belief in the power of intentions is aligned with the idea that our minds
have a great capability to manifest what we focus on by directing the brain’s
consciousness toward our goals, aspirations, and changes in our lives.
3. Focus: Consistent focus and attention towards your intention reinforce the goals in
the brain. This can be achieved through daily affirmations or visualization.
4. Action: The power of intention is not just about positive thinking; it also requires
taking actionable steps toward manifesting your intention. Take inspired actions and
seize opportunities that align with your intention.
5. Letting go: Once you have set your intention, it is important to release your
attachment to the outcome and trust in the divine timing. Letting go of any
resistance or attachment allows the universe to work its magic.

In conclusion, the power of intention has a great impact on shaping the purposeful life that
we desire. Therefore, it is important to implement this intention through an actionable
plan and reinforce it with clarity, belief, and focus to optimize positive outcomes and
experiences.
Facing suffering with dignity

It is difficult to maintain one's dignity when facing life’s challenges. In this chapter, I
introduce many techniques and practices that can help in navigating these painful moments
and achieving the fulfillment of personal life. Here are some key elements of facing
suffering with dignity:

1. Acknowledging Emotions: understanding our feelings of frustrations and pain while

maintaining self-awareness in suffering moments helps in approaching them
effectively. Labeling those negative emotions as you experience them helps in
creating distance from them and decreasing their intensity and duration. You can
just write some notes such as “I feel frustrated”, “ I feel scared”, “ I don’t feel
ok”.
2. Resilience: Dignity in suffering also involves resilience. In painful moments, we
should build our inner strength to persist in the face of setbacks. Cultivate self-
growth, positive mindset, and hope to help in overcoming the current challenges.
3. Maintaining Integrity: Maintaining some sense of control over our life’s decisions
(such as living arrangements, financial planning, mental treatment, etc.) while
suffering in a critical situation is important.
4. Seeking Support: Seeking professional help from therapists and psychiatrists can
regulate all negative emotions and provide the necessary guide to navigate such
difficult moments. In addition, medications can balance the chemicals of the brain
and optimize its functioning. Reaching out also to friends and family can provide
great emotional support.
5. Choosing Responses: Many researchers and philosophers emphasize on the freedom
of man to choose between a stimulus and a response. Our reactions to the moments
of crisis drive the outcome of the experience. It is better to perform self-control
when facing a difficult moment to not escalate the consequences of the situation.
This can be achieved via meditation and self-awareness of our feelings and
thoughts.
6. Finding Meaning: Frankl Viktor, a psychiatrist argues that finding meaning and
purpose in moments of suffering is extremely important for well-being. A man can
find meaning through three venues: find larger meaning in life, experience love with
others, and perform meaningful tasks. Adding a purpose to our tasks can keep us
motivated and engaged and increase our ability to maintain good habits.
7. Cultivating Compassion: Developing a sense of empathy and caring toward others is
essential for cultivating compassion. This empathy can be reinforced via some
practices:
 Kindness: simple gestures of kindness toward others can have a
positive impact on our emotions. For example, smiling or hugging a
person in a difficult situation to reduce his/her negative emotions,
 sharing some food with neighbors, and holding the door for others.
All these acts of kindness help in developing a compassionate
community.
 Volunteering: developing a sense of service is essential for well-
being. Helping others can be powerful in cultivating compassion. A
person can select a volunteering activity that aligns with his purpose.
 Forgiveness: Cultivating compassion includes releasing all resentment
feelings and forgiving ourselves and others. This forgiveness
strengthens the soul and opens the heart to more positive feelings.
 Self-reflection: Reflecting on our pains and failures helps us
understand our vulnerabilities. This makes us sympathize with the
experiences of others.

8. Acceptance: Acceptance is the act of positively receiving or acknowledging

something, whether it be a situation, a person, or oneself. It involves embracing
reality as if it is without judgment or resistance. Acceptance does not necessarily
mean agreement or approval, but rather a willingness to acknowledge and make
peace with what is. It can lead to inner peace, mental clarity, and the ability to
move forward and make positive changes in one's life.

Here are some daily affirmations centered around the theme of acceptance:

- I accept myself unconditionally and love myself just as I am.

- I release all judgment and embrace both my strengths and my flaws.
- I accept that I cannot change the past, but I can create a positive
future.
- I accept the challenges in my life as opportunities for growth and
learning.
- I accept others for who they are and practice compassion and
understanding.
- I accept that change is a natural part of life and trust in the process.
- I accept that I am deserving of happiness, love, and abundance.
- I accept that I am enough and worthy of all good things that come my
way.
- I accept the present moment as it is and find peace in the here and now.
- I accept that mistakes are a part of being human and use them as lessons
to grow and improve.

Feel free to choose the affirmations that resonate with you the most and
incorporate them into your daily routine for a positive mindset shift toward
acceptance.
9. Inner Strength: Inner strength refers to the mental and emotional resilience,
courage, and determination that individuals possess in facing and overcoming
challenges, adversity, or difficult situations. It is the ability to stay grounded,
confident, and composed in the face of life's ups and downs. Inner strength is not
about physical power but rather the inner resources, beliefs, and values that help
individuals navigate difficulties and emerge stronger on the other side.

 In the depths of darkness, where shadows loom,

 Resilience blooms, dispelling gloom.
 Inner strength, a guiding light,
 Leading us through the darkest night.

 When trials and tribulations come our way,

 We stand tall, we do not sway.
 Like a mighty oak in a raging storm,
 We weather chaos, we stay warm.

 Through hardships and pain, we find our might,

 Rising from the ashes, shining bright.
 No obstacle too great, no mountain too high,
 With resilience and strength, we touch the sky.

 We draw upon our inner core,

 A source of power forevermore.
 In the face of adversity, we stand tall,
 For we know that we will never fall.

 So let us embrace our inner fire,

 For it is our strength, our heart's desire.
 With courage, faith, and will to mend,
 We rise above, we transcend.

10. Self-care: is the practice of taking care of oneself to maintain and improve
physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It involves activities and behaviors that
promote overall health and wellness, such as getting enough sleep, eating
nutritiously, exercising regularly, practicing mindfulness or meditation, and engaging
in activities that bring joy and relaxation. Self-care is essential for managing
stress, preventing burnout, and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. It is not
selfish or indulgent, but a necessary part of self-preservation and personal growth.
By prioritizing self-care, individuals can better cope with the challenges and
demands of daily life, as well as nurture their own mental and emotional health.
Self-care looks different for everyone, as it is a highly personal and individualized
practice. It is important to identify what activities and behaviors promote well-
 being and make a conscious effort to incorporate them into daily routines.
Remember, taking care of oneself is not a luxury, but a necessity for living a happy,
healthy, and fulfilling life.

Caring for another person

Caring for another person involves providing them with physical, emotional, and
psychological support to meet their needs and ensure their well-being. This can take many
forms depending on the individual's specific circumstances and requirements.

Some ways to care for another person include:

1. Physical care: Assisting with daily tasks such as personal hygiene, feeding, dressing,
mobility, and medication management.
2. Emotional support: Providing comfort, empathy, and reassurance, listening to their
concerns, and offering encouragement and positive reinforcement.
3. Practical support: Helping with household chores, managing finances, arranging
appointments, and coordinating care services.
4. Social support: Encouraging social connections, engaging in activities together, and
facilitating participation in community events.
5. Advocacy: Speaking up for the person's rights and needs, ensuring they receive
appropriate care and services, and helping them navigate complex systems.
6. Respite care: Providing temporary relief for primary caregivers to prevent burnout
and promote their well-being.
7. Flexibility: Be flexible and adaptable in your caregiving approach, as the needs and
circumstances of the person you are caring for may change over time.
8. Celebrate the Positives: While caregiving can be challenging, it can also be
incredibly rewarding. Celebrate the small victories, moments of connection, and
positive experiences along the way.

"Compassion is the greatest form of care we can give to another, for in lifting others, we
lift ourselves."

One of the most memorable experiences I had caring for someone else was when I
volunteered at a local nursing home during college. I was assigned to spend time with an
elderly resident named Mrs. Jenkins, who had limited mobility and relied on a wheelchair to
get around.
At first, Mrs. Jenkins was hesitant to engage in conversation and seemed withdrawn.
However, over time, I tried to sit with her, listen to her stories, and provide
companionship. I would read to her, play games, and simply spend time chatting about our
lives.

One day, Mrs. Jenkins opened it to me about her life before moving to the nursing home.
She shared memories of her family, her career, and her travels, which made me realize
the rich history and experiences she had with her. I could see the joy in her eyes as she
reminisced, and it warmed my heart to see her smile and feel heard.

As weeks went by, our bond grew stronger, and Mrs. Jenkins started to look forward to
our visits. She would eagerly share her thoughts and experiences with me, and I cherished
the opportunity to brighten her day and provide her with a sense of companionship and
connection.

Caring for Mrs. Jenkins taught me the importance of empathy, patience, and the power of
human connection. It was a humbling experience that enriched my life and reinforced my
belief in the value of showing compassion and kindness to those in need. Mrs. Jenkins will
always hold a special place in my heart, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have been
a source of comfort and support for her during our time together.

Overall, caring for another person requires patience, compassion, and a willingness to adapt
to their individual needs and preferences. It is important to maintain open communication,
respect their autonomy and dignity, and seek help from professionals or support networks
when needed.
Highest version of yourself

As you go through life, you often hear the phrase "be the best version of yourself." But
what if I told you there is something even greater - the highest version of yourself.

Imagine waking up every morning feeling truly fulfilled and happy. Picture being so content
with your life that nothing can bring you down. This is what it means to embody the
highest version of yourself.

To reach this level, you must first identify your true passions and purpose in life. What
sets your soul on fire? What makes you jump out of bed in the morning with excitement?
Once you have discovered these answers, everything else will fall into place.
Next, surround yourself with positive influences who uplift and inspire you. Cut out any
toxic relationships or situations that are holding you back from reaching your full
potential. Surrounding yourself with positivity will only propel you further towards
becoming the highest version of yourself.

Finally, never stop growing and learning. The moment we think we know it all is the moment
we stop evolving. Keep pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and trying new things.
Embrace challenges as opportunities for growth rather than setbacks.
By following these steps, you will inch closer and closer to becoming the highest version of
yourself. You will radiate a sense of fulfillment and happiness that will inspire others to do
the same.

So start today. Take that first step towards living your best life and becoming the highest
version of yourself. Your future self will thank you for it.

“Make the most of yourself.... for that is all there is of you.”

― Ralph Waldo Emerson

“You are unique. You have different talents and abilities. You don't have to
always follow in the footsteps of others. And most important, you should always
remind yourself that you don't have to do what everyone else is doing and have a
responsibility to develop the talents you have been given.”
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

“Nothing can be more hurtful to your heart than betraying yourself.”

― Roy T. Bennett

“Decide what you want to be……

Pay the Price ...
And be what you want to be.”
― John A. Widtsoe, In a Sunlit Land
Love of life leads to creation

Love of life is the driving force behind creation, inspiring us to bring beauty and meaning
into the world. When we approach life with a deep love and appreciation for all its wonders,
we are motivated to create, innovate, and express ourselves in ways that reflect the
richness of our experiences. From painting a masterpiece to writing a heartfelt poem, from
designing an invention to nurturing a garden, our love for life propels us to explore our
creativity and tap into our innate potential to leave a lasting impact on the world.

Majesty of dreams

Dreams are a mysterious and wondrous part of our lives, a realm where our minds can roam
free and uninhibited. Within the vast expanse of our subconscious, lies a realm of endless
possibilities and unbridled creativity.

In the stillness of the night, our minds drift away from the confines of reality and into the
boundless world of dreams. Here, we are not limited by the constraints of the physical
world, but rather empowered by our imagination to explore the depths of our desires and
fears.

In our dreams, we can be anything we want to be, go anywhere we want to go, and
experience anything we can imagine. It is a place where the laws of physics and logic hold
no sway, a place where the impossible becomes possible.

The majesty of dreams lies in their ability to tap into the deepest recesses of our minds,
unlocking hidden thoughts, emotions, and memories. It is a place where we can confront
our fears, fulfill our fantasies, and uncover the truths that lie buried within us.

Dreams are a reminder of the boundless potential of our minds, a testament to the power
of our creativity and imagination. They offer us a glimpse into the infinite possibilities of
our existence, a tantalizing taste of magic that lies just beyond the edge of consciousness.

So let us embrace the majesty of dreams, let us revel in the beauty of their fleeting
existence, and let us be inspired by the limitless potential that lies within us. For in the
realm of dreams, we are truly free to be the architects of our reality.

 In the still of night, when the world's asleep,

 Dreams come alive; in secrets they keep.
 They whisper softly, in shadows and gleam,
 A magical world, where reality's but a dream.

 In the enchanting allure of dreams so deep,

 Our souls take flight, in the realm we reap.
 Where skies are painted with colors unseen,
 And life's endless possibilities, like a flowing stream.
 Oh, the allure of dreams, so mysterious and bright,
 They dance with our hearts, in the velvet night.
 We wander through forests, where fairies may sing,
 And climb mountains high, to touch the sky's wing.

 In dreams, we are free, to create and explore,

 To open our hearts and seek something more.
 They beckon us closer, with a gentle embrace,
 Guiding us through time, space, and grace.

 So let us succumb to the enchanting allure,

 Of dreams that beckon, pure and sure.
 For in their embrace, we find solace and peace,
 And in their beauty, our spirits release.
If you can dream it, you can build it

In life, we are constantly faced with challenges, obstacles, and setbacks that may make us
doubt our abilities and question our dreams. But in those moments of uncertainty and
difficulty, it is important to remember that giving up is not an option. Your dreams reflect
your innermost desires, passions, and aspirations, and they are worth fighting for. Every
successful person has faced failures and hardships along the way, but what sets them
apart is their unwavering determination to never give up, and to keep pushing forward
despite the odds stacked against them. Remember, the path to achieving your dreams may
not always be smooth or easy, but it is the journey, the struggles, and the perseverance
that make the destination even more rewarding. Believe in yourself, believe in the power of
your dreams, and trust that with dedication, hard work, and a resilient spirit, you can
overcome any challenge that comes your way. Embrace the challenges, learn from your
failures, and let them fuel your determination to keep moving forward. Your dreams are
valid, your goals are worth pursuing, and you have the strength and resilience within you to
make them a reality. So, never give up on your dreams, no matter how tough the road may
seem, because the greatest achievements often come from the most challenging journeys.
Keep pushing, keep believing, and never lose sight of the amazing potential that lies within
you. The world is waiting for you to chase your dreams and make them a reality - so go out
there and show the world what you are truly capable of.

You can achieve greatness, surpass all limitations, and reach heights you never thought
possible. The journey toward your dreams may be filled with doubt, fear, and uncertainty,
but it is during these moments of struggle that your true strength and character are
revealed. Embrace the process, embrace the challenges, and know that each setback is
simply a stepping stone towards your goal. It is in the face of adversity that your
resilience is tested, your determination is strengthened, and your passion is reignited.
Remember, the road to success is not linear - it is a journey filled with twists and turns,
ups and downs, but it is through these experiences that you grow, learn, and evolve into
the person you are meant to be.

So, as you face the obstacles in your path, as you encounter roadblocks and setbacks,
remember that these are not signs to give up, but rather opportunities to grow, to learn,
and to become stronger. Your dreams are worth fighting for, your goals are worth
pursuing, and your potential is endless. Do not let self-doubt, fear, or negativity stand in
the way of your dreams. Stay focused, stay determined, and above all, stay true to
yourself and your vision. Never give up on your dreams, for they are the fuel that drives
you to greatness. Embrace the journey, trust in your abilities, and know that with
persistence, perseverance, and unwavering belief in yourself, you can achieve anything you
set your mind to. The world awaits your greatness - so go out there and make your dreams
a reality. Your future is bright, your potential is limitless, and your dreams are within
reach. Believe in yourself, keep pushing forward, and never give up on the incredible
journey that lies ahead. The world is yours for the taking - go out there and make it yours.
Power of choice

The power of choice is a remarkable gift that each of us possesses. In every moment, we
are faced with decisions that shape our lives and determine our destiny. It is in these
choices that we hold the key to our empowerment and liberation. We have the power to
choose how we respond to adversity, how we navigate challenges, and how we approach
success. Our choices not only reflect our values and beliefs but also pave the way for our
future paths. It is through conscious decision-making that we sculpt the tapestry of our
existence, weaving together moments of triumph, perseverance, resilience, and growth.
Embrace the power of choice with conviction and determination, knowing that each
decision you make has the potential to shape your reality and lead you closer to your
dreams. Choose courage over fear, optimism over doubt, and action over inaction.
Remember, the power of choice is your greatest tool in creating a life of purpose,
fulfillment, and joy. Let your choices reflect your inner strength, resilience, and
unwavering commitment to becoming the best version of yourself. Embrace the power of
choice, for it holds the key to unlocking your true potential and living a life of infinite
possibilities.

Through the power of choice, we hold the reins of our destiny, steering our lives in the
direction of our dreams and aspirations. It is in the moments of decision that we discover
our true character and strength, as we face challenges head-on and push through barriers
with unwavering determination. Every choice we make is a step forward on our journey of
self-discovery and personal growth. Embrace the power of choice as a catalyst for
transformation, as a beacon of hope in times of uncertainty, and as a reminder that we
hold the power to shape our reality. Let your choices be guided by your deepest desires
and values, leading you toward a life filled with purpose, passion, and fulfillment. Trust in
the power of choice, for it is the force that propels us forward, empowers us to overcome
obstacles, and enables us to create a life that is truly our own. Embrace each decision with
courage and conviction, knowing that you hold the key to unlocking your full potential and
achieving greatness in all aspects of your life. The power of choice is within you - wield it
wisely and watch as your life transforms into a masterpiece of your creation.

Every choice we make reflects our innermost desires, beliefs, and priorities. It is a
testament to our resilience, strength, and commitment to self-improvement. The power of
choice empowers us to break free from the confines of limiting beliefs and societal
expectations, allowing us to forge our path and define our success. As we navigate the
twists and turns of life, we are constantly presented with opportunities to choose growth
over comfort, courage over complacency, and progress over stagnation. Embrace the power
of choice as a force for positive change, a tool for personal transformation, and a beacon
of light guiding you toward a brighter future. Trust in your ability to make empowered
decisions that align with your true purpose and bring you closer to the life you envision for
yourself. Remember, you are the master of your fate, the captain of your soul, and the
architect of your destiny. Embrace the power of choice with open arms, for it is through
the act of choosing that we truly take control of our lives and unlock the infinite
possibilities that lie ahead.

Embrace the power of choice as a sacred responsibility, a privilege that offers us the
opportunity to shape our reality and create a life that is aligned with our deepest passions
and values. With each decision we make, we are actively contributing to the narrative of
our lives, painting a picture of resilience, perseverance, and unwavering determination. It is
through the power of choice that we can transcend limitations, defy expectations, and
carve out our unique path in this vast and ever-evolving world. Trust in the wisdom of your
heart and the guidance of your intuition as you navigate the complexities of life, knowing
that every choice you make has the potential to lead you closer to your true purpose and
ultimate fulfillment. Embrace the power of choice as a catalyst for growth, a source of
strength, and a beacon of hope in times of uncertainty. Believe in your ability to make
empowered decisions that honor your authentic self and propel you toward a future
brimming with endless possibilities. You hold within you the power to shape your destiny, to
manifest your dreams, and to live a truly extraordinary life. Embrace this power with
gratitude and conviction, for it is the key to unlocking the boundless potential that resides
within you.
Faith and prayers

Faith and prayers are powerful sources of comfort, guidance, and strength in our lives. In
times of uncertainty, challenges, and difficulties, turning to our faith and sending up
prayers can provide a sense of peace and solace. Faith allows us to trust in a higher power,
to believe that there is a greater plan beyond our understanding, and to find hope amid
despair. It is the belief that even in our darkest moments, there is a light that shines
within us, guiding us towards a brighter tomorrow.

Prayers are our way of communicating with the divine, expressing our hopes, fears,
gratitude, and desires. They are a way to connect with something greater than us, to seek
comfort, guidance, and blessings from a source of infinite love and wisdom. Through
prayers, we can find a sense of grounding, a reminder that we are not alone in our
struggles and that there is always someone listening, ready to offer comfort and support.
Together, faith and prayers can become powerful tools for transformation, healing, and
growth. They can help us to navigate life's ups and downs with grace and courage, to find
strength in the face of adversity, and to cultivate a sense of peace and resilience within
ourselves. By cultivating a deep sense of faith and maintaining a consistent practice of
prayers, we can find solace in knowing that we are held in a loving embrace, no matter what
challenges may come our way.

In essence, faith and prayers are not just mere acts of spirituality, but an integral part of
our humanity. They remind us of our interconnectedness with something greater than
ourselves, and our capacity to tap into a well of infinite love and wisdom. So, in times of
