Integral BEing Irina E. Childs

In the previous podcast we covered a few elements about the third layer of consciousness of human beings and today we are breaking new grounds as we are introducing the first guest appearance as part of our visionary leaders interviews.
I am delighted to introduce Dr Aaron Turner and his work in the field of wellbeing, human potential and clarity of mind. His company One Though helps leaders and organisations unlock new capabilities and new possibilities.
Aaron Turner received the first ever first-class degree achieved in Anthropology at Swansea University. He went on to do a Masters degree at Brunel University in Medical Anthropology, where he also worked as a faculty member and a researcher at The Centre for Health Sickness and Disablement and got his PhD there. He was interested in how a deeper understanding of humanity could enable positive change or at least more mental freedom that might allow new ways of thinking or behaving and break old patterns.
As his academic career developed, Aaron was fascinated with the potential to understand and approach things differently. But he was starting to wonder how any of the research and analysis being done would translate into meaningful positive impact in the world when he stumbled onto the work his aunt and uncle were doing in the North West of America. Their work seemed to be based on a truly transformative insight into human functioning. The prospect of a new platform for change and understanding drew Aaron to study with George and Linda Pransky and their colleagues for several years.
Aaron has founded One Thought to bring an appreciation of this understanding to the mainstream. He has also been developing and providing practitioner training since 2014. Aaron has been a partner in designing and presenting the largest Three Principles conference worldwide since 2010. He is a founding board member of the 3PGC and currently its President. He has sat on a number of government advisory groups.  He is a published author, international speaker and lives with his family in London.

In the previous podcast we covered a few elements about the second layer of consciousness of human beings and today we are moving up to the third layer! 
Exciting step. The third layer is all about will power, self confidence, capacity for transformation and self mastery and control. In other words when this center is in good working balance all of these qualities are very well presented in an individual. And this is also the level that can distinguish a leader from an aspiring leader. This, more than any centers of consciousness presented until now, is the level at which the leadership qualities bud and start to manifest. 
Like mentioned in my previous episodes, information presented here is only reaching the surface but hopefully can give you an understanding of the universe that each of these centers of consciousness control and the extended influence they have in our well being and in the quality of our overall life. 
The general idea is that the predominant center of consciousness that is most active gives the perspective in life and this perspective can be modified, improved and transformed greatly if you know how to do it. This will make more sense as we go through presenting all of them.
 

In the previous podcast I have presented a few elements about the first layer of consciousness in the human being and I will continue to do the same with the second one today! These are only reaching the surface but hopefully can give you an understanding of the universe that they control and influence in our well being and overall life. 
 
The general idea is that the predominant center of consciousness that is most active in someone’s being can give a person a certain perspective in life, certain qualities and tune of life and this is in direct correlation with the level of social integration, perceptions of others in a context, with the intelligence, capacity to be empathic and so on. These are unique combinations and depend on many factors like upringhing or education but what is clear from many years of research and practice is that every single one of us perceives reality depending on how we have activated and energized our centers of consciousness inside our being. This will make more sense as we go through all of them.

In the previous podcast I have spoken about the 7 mysterious layers of consciousness that exist inside every human being. 
 
Today I will continue by saying that the predominant centre of consciousness that is most active in someone’s being can give a person a certain perspective in life, certain qualities and tune of life and this is in direct correlation with the a certain level of inner development, spiritual maturity, level of intelligence, capacity to be empathic and so on. These are unique combinations and depend on the way we have activated and energised our centres inside our being. 
Chakras are also mysterious focal points where the astral universe - the realm of dreams - and the physical universe intertwine, this is also where some emotional and mental, psychological phenomena take place. These power centres are also fundamentally connected with the five fundamental energies of the Godly manifestation.
We will start now with delving into the very first layer  -  called Muladhara chakra, based at the base of the spine in the perineum area and it is connected with the element of earth being in continuous process of occult resonance with the energy of the subtle energy of Earth, prithivi tattva.

In this podcast I will start to talk about the 7 mysterious layers of consciousness that exist inside every human being. This is an introduction into this fascinating field because to know it, it requires practice and dedication and application of knowledge, in other words we can talk about the 7 musical notes but in order to become a musician practice is also required. 
These layers of consciousness are corresponding also to the first 6 chakras and the 7th fundamental center of the being. These chakras are pointing out the areas in our being where certain types of energies are received;
What are these chakras you may ask? They are distinct centres or resonators that exist within the inner universe of the human being. These resonators are fundamental systems that emit and receive information specific to the 7 fundamental ranges of vibration of the Macrocosm or the Universe. 
The same way a radio emitter receives information and broadcasts it out in the same way the inner resonators that we have, have this role. However not all of them work to the capacity unless we have awakened them.
And before going any further I will explain what a resonance phenomenon is from the scientific perspective and also from the perspective of yoga practice. In the yoga practice resonance is a process of initiating and amplifying phenomena that is consciously perceived in the human being.

As we are still in the beginning episodes of our podcast, this week I would like to offer a few definitions that are important for clarity of concepts and I will start with the term Integral.  The word integral in my view and also from the perspective of the teachings of Integral Studies Academy refers to that which includes both esoteric and exoteric knowledge. 
Exoteric knowledge is everything that science, art and most existing traditional Universities and education institutions offer today and which is explained and understood primarily with the intellect. 
Esoteric term has been adopted in its philosophical sense and has been used to describe a practice or a person who seemingly has a deep knowledge of the universe and the lessons within it and actively works to connect with those things.
So in my teachings we define all that which connects the sacred, the mysterious and the divine - as the esoteric - both in the human being and in the universe  - with the visible - the exoteric - for examples with the discoveries of science and thus in Integral Education we have the unity of those visible and invisible things, the explainable, tangible and the sacred, not explainable, the mysterious that can be experienced - this is Integral knowledge.
