Awesome Again Academy

Welcome to The Mirror of the Self, where you will learn all about yourself, as you never thought possible before. In this course, you will gain a new perspective on the meaning and purpose for each relationship in your life. You will see that each relationship, and not just with people, but also with your body, with food, with money, for instance, represent a portion of who you really are. You may have noticed that we do not see ourselves as we really are, we formulate in our minds a story about who we want others to think we are, and we end up believing that story. In fact, we believe it so much, that we end up forgetting about our true selves. Now we are about to reverse the process of forgetting by gently learning to observe the effect we actually have on others. Naturally that effect is also a function of who the other person is; this is why keen observation of our relationships with entities other than people is so important. There we see aspects of ourselves that other people sometimes cannot reflect. Take for instance your relationship with food, your body, and money. Each of these relationships says a lot about who we are. The main emphasis of this course is on the use of relationships as a mirror of the self, as a way of seeing what we are really like. This course is not so much about how to fix each type of problem or how to find romantic relationships, although you will certainly benefit in those departments as a result of this course. For instance, do you know a person who cannot get along with someone else but at the same time can’t let them go? We think of couples in these cases, but it happens to anyone: parent/child, siblings, co-workers, neighbors, friends, anyone who inhabits the Earth. We call this “relationship turmoil”, and relationship turmoil has been associated with anything from decreased productivity and financial distress to poor health and early death. Just watch to movie War of the Roses to know what we mean. For over 20 years we have helped people in relationship turmoil. We offer a unique way of solving this problem through self-development. We start with the idea that there are no true “relationship problems”, there are personal problems that affect relationships. Not all personal problems make a relationship difficult or nearly impossible. Usually the culprit is one personal difficulty, the effects of which on the relationship the participants remain unaware, leading to a lifetime of suffering. In this course, I present a series of in-depth discussions informed by over 31000 therapeutic sessions with over 7000 clients. As you listen to these discussions you will ask yourself “how could this apply to me?” The course will take you into a deep introspection of your own life, so that you can identify the aspects of your person that make your relationships difficult. You will then learn how to change yourself. I began developing this methodology in the late 90’s, and by 1998 published a paper on this topic and later presented this material in several conferences to other therapists. The use of these techniques has generated much happiness to many people; it will do the same for you. Although we tend to think of sex and romance when we think of 'relationships', the contents of this course go far beyond. We get into the very nature of human interaction with others and even with money and objects. This course is presented in a unique way: just you and I, looking at one another. Experience as a therapist suggests that eye contact and lack of distractions generates maximum benefit to you. There are no requirements to enroll, other than an open mind, a loving heart and a sincere desire to be a better person. Mastering the concepts presented however, will require effort and patience. Of course, I will be available to help in case you need… each week we meet in a webinar where concepts are further clarified and I answer your questions. Feel free to look through the course description and preview some classes.
