Module 128 min

Your Values

What do you really value? Values quietly drive every decision we make. This module looks at where people find peace (in nature) and why: nature is full of values like mercy, patience, love, beauty and peace. You then choose your core three values.

  • Life coaching helps you identify your goals, and achieve them
  • A thought experiment: why values matter more than money
  • Forest bathing: the research on how time in nature lowers blood pressure, heart rate and low mood
  • What nature teaches us: mercy, patience, love, beauty and peace
  • Homework: choose your core three values from the list

Your Identity

Who are you, really? Not your job title, your bank balance or your hobbies. This module separates what we share with animals from what makes us human, shows how the goals most people chase come down to possessions, pleasure, praise and power, and breaks your identity into five parts.

  • “I am a doctor, a parent, a traveller”: why labels are not an identity
  • The everyday things we share with animals, and the one thing that sets us apart
  • The four animal goals: possessions, pleasure, praise and power
  • Stephen Covey's The 8th Habit: spirit, body, mind, heart and emotions
  • Homework: find where your struggle is

How to Change

Can people really change? Yes: the brain rewires itself. This module explains neuroplasticity, the conscious and subconscious mind, and why knowing something is not the same as having it installed. Change comes from resistance and repetition.

  • Neuroplasticity: neurons that fire together, wire together
  • The conscious mind and the subconscious “library”
  • Downloading knowledge is not enough: a quality must be installed
  • Resistance and repetition: why we use 30 days
  • Uninstall bad qualities, install good ones, stage by stage: body, mind, heart, emotions
  • Homework: what do you want to install?

Life Alignment

Now bring your life into line with your values, starting with peace. This module gives three simple practices for 30 days: prolonged silence, good character and an hourly moment of peace.

  • Which value do we start with? Peace
  • Practice 1: prolonged silence (only speak if it is better than staying silent)
  • Practice 2: good character (leave people better than you found them)
  • Practice 3: every hour (not for an hour), come into the presence of peace
  • Homework: the 30 day Three Practices of Peace tracker
