I often wonder what the human landscape would look like if emotional intelligence was taught and nurtured in schools – from the earliest grades and on into colleges and universities. Schools are natural places to teach listening and conversational skills; to build an emotional vocabulary; to learn conflict resolution and mediation skills; and to find and maintain a balance between thinking and feeling.

Children are wide open to learn these awarenesses and skills. The greater challenge would be to train the teachers to be able to instruct and guide the children.

Can you imagine a world in which children grow up with the ability to de-stress and release whatever negativity comes their way? We would not have to grow up struggling and suffering from problems of anxieties, fears, angers, hurts, embarrassment, insecurity… and many of the other challenges of life…

With lessening of negative life experiences – outer and inner – a greater wholistic awareness would develop. People would understand the messages of their body – rather than addressing them as symptoms to be eliminated. Fewer medications would be needed.

With less stress there would be fewer stress-related diseases; less conflict with other people – in the family, in the workplace, between communities and between nations.

People would learn to connect with intuitive awarenesses that often accompany body messages. Once people open to their intuition and enhance it, they are able to access their sixth sense in other areas of their lives. A sense of rightness and wrongness grows in decisions, relationships and actions.

Intuitive awareness often expands further, opening into a sense of oneness with other living beings and with all of Creation. When we experience this oneness, there is a growing sense of respect for all living things, as well as for the earth, the waters and the air. The prospect of polluting or harming any of these feels like we would be harming ourselves.

If you have not experienced the relief and release of negativity that is possible with techniques such as TWR , what I have shared here may seem just a dream. Having taught thousands of people to use such methods, I can assure you that this is a dream that can come true.

You needn’t just take my word on this. In just a few minutes of reading and personal exploration you can confirm for yourself how this works – for pains, anxieties, stress or negativity of any sort.
