Writers Live - Ali Walker introduces Get Conscious
29th Jun '17 @ Berkelouw Mona Vale


Default_aliwalkerpic
You are invited to meet Ali Walker when she introduces her new book Get Conscious.
 
In ancient times, most people believed that if you travelled far enough to get to the edge of the world, you would fall off . This was an illusion that limited their lives. Today, the we chase the illusion that we will be happy when we are married, or when we leave our job or when we are holidays.
 
We overthink and overanalyse all the ways that we might be happier at some point in the future. But what if happiness is the wrong aim? What if happiness is like the illusory edge of the world?
 
Ali Walker shows that instead of seeking happiness in the future, we can practise awareness in each moment, training ourselves to generate calming, positive and uplifting thoughts and emotions. 
 
Get Conscious moves us out of overthinking and into awareness.
