Join 📚 Armand's Highlights
A batch of the best highlights from what Armand's read, .
The first 3 minutes: “Feeling totally grateful for three things. I make sure that one of them is very, very simple: the wind on my face, the reflection of the clouds that I just saw. But I don’t just think gratitude. I let gratitude fill my soul, because when you’re grateful, we all know there’s no anger. It’s impossible to be angry and grateful simultaneously. When you’re grateful, there is no fear. You can’t be fearful and grateful simultaneously.”

It turns out that speed and IQ have a surprisingly strong relationship. In the experimental procedure called “choice-reaction time,” subjects are seated in front of a panel with a light and two buttons. They are told to press the left button when the light is green and to press the right button when the light is red, and to do this as fast as they can. IQ correlates almost as high as +.50 with how fast people can do this.

My friends Pam and Brown at the Avatar Centre in Peru are quite experienced and excellent ceremony leaders, and I very strongly recommend (speaking as a human, not a psychologist or medical professional) seeking their help.
