Summary

How can thoughtful, spiritual people thrive in a fast-changing, unpredictable, and high-pressure world?
Transcend the Chaos teaches readers how to develop themselves spiritually while cultivating the qualities and tools necessary for personal and professional growth. With the Six Cs—Connection, Creativity, Craft, Culture, Character, and Consciousness—Angel provides a unique working model for navigating our world today and tomorrow. He explores the use of trance and dreams in the lives of famous artists, philosophers, and inventors and urges us to look inside to cultivate the imagination and creative thinking needed for modern careers. He also teaches persuasion techniques that work in advertising and politics and how to apply them to self-talk to replace self-defeating, sabotaging inner dialogue with powerful positive messages. Angel shares techniques that can be integrated into your life and used not only in times of high-pressure but also at home during more quiet moments. Learn exercises to optimize posture, breathing, and relaxation as well as pathways to understanding the secrets to emotional control, confidence, and creativity.
This book offers the tools, practices, and theory to not only understand complexity but to simplify and transform it; to not only endure the chaos but transcend it.
