Do you struggle with work/life balance?
Are you bored by your challenges and want opportunities for more relevant growth?
Do you sometimes feel stress due to overwhelm and workload management?
Do you sometimes forget or struggle with asking for help?
After taking the course you will be able to
When we align with circumstance, circumstance aligns with us. Using a cutting-edge scientific theory of synchronicity, Sky Nelson-Isaacs presents a model for living “in the flow”–a state of optimal functioning, creative thinking, and seemingly effortless productivity.
Nelson-Isaacs explains how our choices create meaning, translating current and original ideas from theoretical physics and quantum mechanics into accessible, actionable steps that we can all take to live lives in better alignment with who we are and who we want to be.
“Many people have clarified a variety of interesting issues through the lens of the flow experience.
Few have done this more successfully than Sky Nelson-Isaacs, who uses flow to explain the mysteries of synchronicity.”
— MIHALY CSIKSZENTMIHALYI, AUTHOR OF FLOW: THE PSYCHOLOGY OF OPTIMAL EXPERIENCE
“Just as water avoids the extreme peaks and flows in the middle of a valley, flow lives on a middle path. On this path, we honor our outer need for material abundance, for what it can teach us and what delight it can bring. We also honor our inner need for meaningful experiences, for the richness and color that they bring to our lives. Without denying our own needs, we can yet find things to do which bring more love and care into the world. By living from the heart with boldness, gratitude and self-awareness, flow helps us find a deeper sense of dynamic safety in the world even when the outer circumstances feel uncertain.
From this fundamentally different place of stepping fully into our lives, each of us can be a part of a shift to ‘flow consciousness’ that can support a worldwide renaissance in creativity. This shift has already started, as more and more people build symbolic momentum in the direction of a world which works for and honors everyone.”
Sky is a dynamic speaker with a unique ability to translate deep scientific ideas into their implications for your life.
Based on his new book, “Living in Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World,” physics educator Sky Nelson-Isaacs will help you discover synchronistic experiences in your life and how they can help you drop into that ideal state known as flow.
In flow, every event of life is an opportunity to grow.
Using an apple tree as a model, Nelson-Isaacs provides a clear and relatable visual which suggests that “feelings drive the events of our lives.”
The scientific theory that Nelson-Isaacs proposes for synchronicity is neutral, allowing us to be creators in life in whatever direction we choose. It is a call to do the inner work to bring ourselves into alignment with our lives.
“I am deeply grateful that Sky Nelson-Isaacs has written this book. These are life lessons that must be taught to our young people. They should be infused in every curriculum, beginning at an early age. Every organizational leader in business, in government, and in civil society must learn, embrace and live by these principles. Today’s national and global challenges demand this.”
˜Joseph Jaworski, author of Synchronicity: The Inner Path of Leadership
“Reading this book made me happy. And hopeful. As an elder and a spiritual theologian it moves me to learn from a young physicist who is posing perennial questions from the viewpoint of the new science. Sky Nelson-Isaacs ignites new sparks that shed light on ancient mysteries.”
˜Matthew Fox, Author of Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh: Transforming Evil in Soul and Society
“In ‘Living in Flow’ Sky Nelson-Isaacs draws from the deep well of quantum mechanics as well as from numerous personal anecdotes to offer sage and witty advice for living in synchronicity with the universe and one’s ideals — a mystic tool kit for life in this scientific age.”
˜Daniel P. Sheehan, Professor of Physics, University of San Diego
“Meaningful history selection? Exactly what the world needs, and certainly what you can use to help you live in flow with the world’s events. Sky Nelson-Isaacs uses his engaging, clear-minded, scientifically informed prose to help you revolutionize the way you look at life, navigate your conscious experience, and shape the events that shape your life and the future of the planet.”
˜Julia Mossbridge, MA, PhD, Associated Professor at California Institute of Integral Studies, author of The Calling.
“A bold effort to bring forward to the layperson what at first appears as out of the ordinary or even an unbelievable way to understand the world. Is it possible that synchronicities are all around us and we can learn to see their workings? Sky Nelson-Isaacs believes so and makes a compelling case that is based in modern quantum physics. It gives us a way to know that living in the flow, being authentic and living from the heart are not a dreamer’s view of the world but an experience that can help us shape our world in a meaningful and at the same time in a fun way. The book has many anecdotal and personal stories to show the mysterious way of how real synchronicity is, how it operates.”
˜Menas C. Kafatos, Fletcher Jones Endowed, Professor of Computational Physics, Chapman University
“Sky Nelson-Isaacs has written the book so many of us have been waiting for. With clear language, compelling stories and most of all, powerful science, he lays out a comprehensive exploration of how we can come to understand the ‘patterns and commonalities between things that seem completely distinct.’ He is that rare author and thinker working to increase the coherence of things rather than simply promote a new view. Whether examining one’s personal or professional life, whether focused on science, spirituality, or leadership in their community, readers will find compelling insights to take away.”
˜Ann Betz, BeAbove Leadership Consultants
“Sky Nelson shares a bounty of insight about the scientific basis of intuition, and specifically about the interface of inner guidance, science and our daily lives. Using personal stories as the anchor for the information, he weaves memorable anecdotes together with valuable scientific insight and shares a vision for our future that is both inspiring and practical.”
˜Kimberly Carter Gamble, Producer, Director, Co-Writer of the widely acclaimed film, THRIVE.
“Within these pages you will find answers to some of life’s greatest mysteries!”
˜Glenna Salsbury, Professional Speaker and Author of The Art of the Fresh Start
“Sky Nelson-Isaacs has created something exciting in Living in Flow in which he explores meaning, perspective, authenticity, synchronicity, and all the things that make up the flow of our universe. Sky invites the reader in with a friendly, down-to-earth warmth, helping the non-scientist stay engaged. References to research and personal anecdotes make Living in Flow a compelling work that I enjoyed immensely.”
˜Rev. Edward Viljoen, Lead Minister, Santa Rosa Center for Spiritual Living, Author of Ordinary Goodness, The Surprisingly Effortless Path to Creating a Life of Meaning and Beauty
