"Get Out Of Your Own Way"
The 1st step to creating the happiness you deserve!
Ask yourself: Have I been attracting the wrong people into my life?
If so, how do I create healthy relationships?
Our Central Challenge in Life:
We are unconsciously conditioned to mindlessly walk through our lives - A term I use for this state of mind is "sleepwalking". During our life's journey, our powerful minds create realities that will either bring us happiness or despair, self-growth or stagnation, health or sickness.
The Solution: The Advantage of Life Balance
Believe it or not, life's adversity is the gift. Become aware that the answer to your happiness lies in the Life Balance Advantage: becoming physically energized, mentally clear, emotionally centered, positively connected in relationships and spiritually aligned.

"In his teachings, I learned to value my life and to believe that hope was for everyone. Mark brings to the broken, the realization that cultivating kindness promotes acceptance, peace, freedom and happiness. Mark shows us that we can learn to pay attention in the present moment and more importantly, we can change our habitual patterns; our vulnerabilities to automatic reactions based on past experiences of hurt. Mark shows us that too often weā€™re on autopilot, not even paying attention to what is actually happening in the present, just responding to triggers that cause us to react automatically and to defensively respond. The way Mark presents, it allows one to engage more fully with ones emotions and experiences. He shows us the infinite possibilities if we allow ourselves to hear and forgive and move forward without judgement for past actions that cannot be changed. I am forever indebted to Mark Armiento for the light he shed on my life and empowerment received from his message.ā€¯ "
