David is the international best selling author of Immovable Heart Unstoppable Mind - A personal guide to the 6 essential practices for living a healthy and fulfilling life.

 

 

• Generosity - Helps us to let go of the past and release obstructions without focusing on them. Generosity makes our goals more powerful by giving them a greater purpose than our own self interest, and brings greater abundance into our lives.
• Integrity - Helps us to not create new obstructions that impede our progress. It allows us to learn lessons about the intensity and frequency of our vicious cycles, and the negative consequences that we experience because of them. It also brings more intimacy and connection into our lives.
• Patience - Helps us to not take our current obstructions and blow them out of proportion, making them even bigger barriers to progress. In fact,lack of patience does the opposite of progress– it turns our mountains into molehills. Brings more growth and transformation into our lives.
• Inspired Action - Helps us to cultivate more of what we really want in our lives, rather than trying to move us away from what we don't want. It also brings more joy and fulfillment into our lives.
• Mindfulness - Helps to free us from attachments that keep us feeling stuck in life. It is the inner essence and the common thread of all of the previous practices, and as necessary in order for them to be powerful and effective. It also allows us to experience true freedom.
• Commitment - It is the outer container that gives shape and direction to all the previous practices. It also gives us the ability to stick with the other practices long enough for them to blossom and have a noticeable effect on our lives.
