Keys explains clearly how what is in your life got there and how your subconscious and brain process sensory data to create your self-image, and perception of the world, yourself, and others. You will see why many self-empowering techniques fail until you expand the beliefs that sabotage your desires and intentions. Numerous exercises and practical techniques enable you to identify the beliefs that create all your conscious experiences and trigger your emotional reactions to your life circumstances.

With self-knowledge, you reclaim your thoughts, mind, and feelings. You harness the power of now to be consciously present in all your interactions and circumstances as you create the joyful, fulfilling, and meaningful life you desire.
