It brings the unconscious to light and allows one to navigate life more consciously- not on auto pilot- it builds aptitude and opens the door to a quality of life that has seem to evade humanity in its totality as of yet. imagine a you with reduced stress, increased over-all physical health, emotional equilibrium, better productivity. a you who is less reactive and moves from a space of purer intention and purposeful momentum. imagine a you who lucid and in your power.
