HELM GUIDED STUDY PROGRAM
THE GOAL
To use the seven chakra holistic health system to:
- Understand and overcome negative and unhealthy physical, emotional, and mental attitudes and beliefs
- Understand and develop positive and healthy physical, emotional, and mental attitudes and beliefs
- Understand and overcome selfish egotism
- Become a healthy, happy, wise, and benevolent cell in the body of life on Earth
- Understand and realize spiritual concepts such as; soul realization, reincarnation, karma, God, Enlightenment, and ultimately Self realization.
The right attitude towards a self-development program
Study, understanding, and success takes time and practice yet know that you will reap the benefits. The right attitude towards any self-development program, like HELM, is to nurture towards yourself the qualities of;
- Self Respect
- Kindness
- Patience
- Tolerance
- Committment (to the practice)
- Firm and fair
- Balance: not underdoing or overdoing, and taking it gradually
- Steady and regular in practice: make it part of your daily routine
- Compassionate: you will make mistakes, be kind, gentle, and forgiving
- Love
- Wisdom: be sensible, don't expect perfection in one day, and keep at it
Developing yourself is not unlike being a parent to a child. The child is our body, heart (emotions), and mind (that which is being developed). The parent is our higher self (the soul) that is wanting to develop the "child." How to do this successfully? You don't confuse, beat, bully,and be nasty to the "child", setting unrealistic goals, you treat the "child" with love, respect, forgiveness, firmness, and you explain the process so that the child is not confused as to why it is happening.
