Journey Into The Deep Potential of The Human BrainIn Ancient Greek ecstasis means 'to stand outside of oneself'. Plato described it as an 'altered state where our normal waking consciousness vanishes completely, replaced by an intense euphoria and powerful connection to a greater intelligence'. You probably know the feeling. You might have experienced it as a flow state (when you are in the zone), or perhaps even a contemplative mystical state. You may have accessed these states through a variety of activities. From action sports, running a marathon or flying a jet; to making Art, writing a novel, or performing; to sound healing, live music or meditation. Psychedelics (not recommended) will also do the trick.The list is endless, and wildly personal.Neuroscience tells us - from the Navy SEALS to Silicon Valley - these elevated mental states underpin peak performance. And, thanks to developments in brain science, we are now able to tune these altered states with new found precision. As outlined in the revolutionary book Stealing Fire , these states have four signature characteristics: Selflessness, Timelessness, Effortlessness, and Richness.The experience of these states has the ability to reset our nervous system and hook us into non-linear timelines where innovation, creativity and mastery surge. Peak states where we have access to richer, more salient information that we can use to do great work, create great Art and lead great organisations; all while elevating and optimising our day-to-day lives.The ultimate goal of Feed the Holy is to increase wellbeing, cognitive function and performance through exploring the state of flow. Personally, and collectively. For individuals. Teams. Small Businesses. Organisations. Communities.The ultimate experience is ecstasis - an elevated mental state that allows us to learn, create, innovate and master with greater intensity and efficiency, alongside a heightened moral and ethical viewpoint that may be deployed to enhance the world as a whole.We achieve this by stepping through the looking glass, and into the world of Hedonic Engineering. Utilising three Action Guidelines: Connect to Self, Return to Centre, and Feed the Holy this is a process whereby we schedule our bliss for peak performance, mindfully balancing risk and reward (and an annual recalibration) to ensure we don't overcook things. Here you will find a curated library of research, theories and ideas alongside guides, frameworks and rituals to unlock your brain's potential and provoke and trigger altered states for peak performance. As you journey into the deep potential of the human brain, you will encounter a layered exploration of the human consciousness from the world's deepest thinkers, most progressive scientists and provocative artists.We all have a responsibility to nurture mindset growth in ourselves and in others. It feels meaningful, with the chaos of the world, that we awaken to what we are here to do individually, and collectively. To understand and light up our inner purpose, gifts and talents. And then to connect, encourage and motivate each other to use these to enhance the world as a whole.Delve deep, and you will learn about vulnerability, empathy, emotion, deep connection, communitas, cognitive literacy, hedonic engineering, serendipity, synchronicity, altered states, self-rejuvenation and more. The context is personal life, work life and leadership. The lens is psychology, neurobiology, technology, and your personal meta.Connect to Self. Return to Centre. Feed the Holy.Drawing from the transcendentals - science (truth), the arts (beauty) and religion (goodness)* - the purpose of this expedition is mindset growth for peak performance. Practical 'tips for success' are replaced with a framework for living and a spur to choose your own adventure and find your own answers as you live, love, work, and play. This framework gives you durability in the long-play of life.
