Discover how finding the balance between Confucianism and Taoism can give you the winning edge.
Confucianism and Taoism, two of the most influential philosophical and ethical systems in Chinese history, have often been seen as contrasting yet complementary forces.
While Confucius focused on social order, morality, and human relationships, Taoism emphasised harmony with nature, spontaneity, and individual freedom. Despite these apparent differences, the two philosophies share underlying commonalities and have profoundly influenced each other over the centuries.

All transformative change occurs in the unconscious mind. This is why therapy targeting the conscious mind will have minimal impact at best.
One of the most powerful gateways to the unconscious mind is hypnosis.
Hypnosis is a state of heightened concentration and focused attention. Guided by a trained hypnotist or hypnotherapist, it causes one to enter a relaxed state that makes one more open to suggestions.
This show will explore the good, the bad, and the ugly about this controversial subject. You will also learn how to use hypnosis to transform all areas of your life.

The earliest recorded descriptions of the tiny pineal gland come from the ancient Greeks. Some believed it was a sort of "third eye" that connected " people to the spiritual realm. The 17th century philosopher René Descartes had a more mystical view of the pineal gland. He described it as the "principal seat of the soul" and believed it was the point where the mind and body interacted. The Hindus also believe that this gland is the third eye seven chakras of the body. Many other mystical, metaphysical, and occult theories concern the pineal gland's role. If the major pharmaceutical companies are becoming increasingly excited about the pineal gland, then so should we. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

The triune brain, a theory that emerged in the 1960s from the pioneering work of neuroscientist Paul MacLean, is a significant milestone in our understanding of the human brain. It proposes that our brain comprises three distinct, interconnected regions, each representing a different stage in our evolutionary history. The theory suggests that these three brain parts can sometimes conflict, leading to complex human behaviour. For example, the reptilian complex might urge you to scream when stressed at someone on the phone, while the neocortex might remind you that we all have bad days and there are smarter ways to deal with them.

In Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), an anchor is a technique for creating an association between an external or internal trigger and a specific emotional or physiological state. For example, if a particular song pumps you up, hearing that song can quickly shift your state to motivated and energised. There are different types of anchors. You can choose the one that best suits your needs from visual, auditory, kinesthetic (touch), olfactory (smell), or gustatory (taste) anchors. You can tap into resourceful states at will, allowing you to steer your emotions and reactions in the direction you desire. It's a practical tool for personal empowerment. By creating your own powerful anchors, you can take control of your emotional states and manage your reactions effectively. Watch this show to learn how. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

In NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), a timeline refers to how we internally organise and experience time, including our memories of the past and our expectations for the future. It's not a literal timeline like those in history books but rather a mental framework shaping how we process and interact with time. Ultimately, NLP timelines are a transformative tool for understanding our perception of time and using that understanding to improve our emotional state and achieve our goals. This knowledge can inspire hope and optimism, showing us the potential for positive change in our lives. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) equips you with the practical tool of eye-accessing cues to understand a person's preferred way of thinking or processing information. The theory is that eye movements can indicate whether someone uses visual, auditory, or kinesthetic (feeling-based) representational systems in their mind. It's important to bear in mind that NLP eye-accessing cues are not absolute indicators. Factors such as cultural background, handedness, and individual differences, which we should always respect, can influence eye movements.They are just one aspect of NLP and should be used with nonverbal cues, such as posture, hand movements, and tone of voice, to achieve a complete understanding.Limited scientific evidence supports the reliability of NLP eye-accessing cues. While some studies have shown a correlation between eye movements and cognitive processes, the field is still evolving, and more research is needed to establish a scientific basis for these cues.Watch Dr Steve Livestream

Pinpointing exactly when humans learned to speak is tricky because language leaves no fossils behind. Estimates range widely, from tens of thousands to millions of years ago. Words and how we express them can be a double-edged sword. They can steer us into challenging situations or unlock the doors to a more fulfilling and successful life, underscoring the profound impact of effective communication. One of the first to realise how powerful speech could be was Bob the Builder. Nobody knows when he lived, but it would have been roughly 30,000 years ago. His story is worth considering because the secrets of communication and influence he discovered are as powerful now as they were then. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

Here's a breakdown of the conscious mind, unconscious mind, and ego and how they work together (or sometimes against each other). Get this right and you will soar like an eagle. Get this wrong and life could be very challenging and not much fun. The Conscious Mind: Picture the conscious mind as the visible tip of an iceberg, where your current thoughts, feelings, and sensations reside, like the sunlit surface of the sea.You're aware of what you're thinking about, what you're feeling right now, and what you're perceiving through your senses.This is where you make conscious decisions, solve problems, and analyze information. The Unconscious Mind: This is the vast, mysterious underwater part of the iceberg.It contains everything you're not currently aware of but that still influences you.This includes:Memories, both positive and negative, that may be tucked away.Deep-seated emotions and motivations.Learned habits and behaviors.Unconscious biases that shape your perceptions. The Ego: The ego acts as a mediator between the conscious and unconscious mind.It's part of the conscious mind that tries to satisfy our needs and desires while following the rules of the real world.The ego helps us form our sense of self-identity and navigate social situations.Watch Dr Steve Livestream

Neurolinguistic programming, commonly known as NLP, is "a therapy designed to alter behavior by reprogramming unconscious patterns of thought.â NLP was co-created by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the early 1970s. They both worked in San Francisco. Bandler was a post-graduate computer programmer, and Grinder was an academic expert in linguistics. They were both brilliant in their individual fields, and when they combined their considerable skills, the result was NLP. Hundreds of thousands, and maybe millions of people have been trained since then, and these graduates come from all walks of life, including Presidents and stars of stage, screen, and sporting arenas. What they share in common is that NLP has literally changed the way they think about themselves and the world around them. Bandler and Grinder were fascinated by individuals who produced results far beyond their peers. Their premise was,â If they can do that, then so can we. We just need to discover their secrets."

The unknown is a vast and mysterious place. It is full of possibilities, both good and bad. It is a place where anything can happen, and where anything is possible. The unknown can be a source of fear and anxiety. It can be a place where we feel lost and alone. However, it can also be a place of excitement and adventure. It can be a place where we learn and grow. The unknown is a part of life. It is something that we all face at some point. We can either be afraid of it or embrace it. If we choose to be afraid of it, it will control us. However, if we choose to embrace it, it can be a source of great joy and discovery. Here are some of the implications of the 1% of reality: It could mean there is more to life than we can see and touch. It could mean that there is a spiritual or metaphysical dimension to reality. It could mean that we are all connected in some way. It could mean that we have the potential to do more than we ever thought possible. The 1% of reality is a mystery, but it is also a source of hope. It is a reminder that there is more to life than what we can see and touch. It is a reminder that we are all connected in some way. And it is a reminder that we have the potental to do more than we ever thought possible. Watch Dr Steve Livestream

Synchronicity is a concept first introduced by Carl Jung in the 1920s. It is the experience of two or more events that are related in a meaningful way but not causally connected. For example, you might be thinking about a friend you haven't seen in years then they call you out of the blue. Jung believed synchronicity is a sign that we are connected to something larger than ourselves. He believed synchronicity is a way for the universe to communicate with us. Here are some additional thoughts on synchronicity: Synchronicity is often seen as a positive experience. It can be a sign that we are on the right path, or that we are being guided by something greater than ourselves.Synchronicity can also be seen as a warning. It can be a sign that we need to change our course, or that we are in danger.Synchronicity can be a powerful tool for personal growth. It can help us to understand ourselves better, and to connect with our intuition.Watch Dr Steve Livestream

Carl Jung coined the phrase 'Collective Unconscious', and it is probably his greatest contribution to our understanding of how the mind works. The concept of our collective unconscious opens the door to the possibility that our unconscious mind is information shared with with others. This means that if we can tap into our unconscious mind we can access all the skills we need. With our current knowledge of genetics and DNA it is not such a huge leap of faith to believe that our hard-wired emotions and instincts arise as part of our collective psychic inheritance, as does our anatomy.
