Personal Development Overview
Since the beginning of time, mankind has pondered upon such universal questions such as "Who am I?", "Why am I here?" and "Is there life after death?".
In an attempt to answer such questions, societies have developed numerous methods and practices to assist an individual with their own personal journey, and ultimately their spiritual path. In the East, Yoga postures (asanas) and breathing techniques have been practiced for thousands of years before Christ. The ancient Greek philosopher, Pythagoras, proposed the science of numerology, and the world's first astronomers studied the skies and developed astrology. Personal development techniques also include energetic modalities such as crystals and magnets. Other practices lean towards a more 'hands on' approach such as meditation, massage or reflexology.
In the context of personal development, all of these modalities work towards assisting the individual to reconnect, embrace and integrate all aspects of self, including the physical, emotional, psychological and energetic (spiritual) selves.
Nosce te ipsum, translates to "Know thyself", and is inscribed in the forecourt of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi, and is attributed to the Delphic Oracle, Greece, 6th Century B.C.
