In The Press
There is a need to draw our attention to our spiritual well-being. We spend years in schools to learn about languages we speak, and train our brains in acquiring knowledge for our professional career. We spend our most precious years of youth in training our brains to work for large corporations, how to use our brain to work for someone else, to help the already very rich people to become even richer and happier, to achieve THEIR DREAMS.
Despite of this, our schools and our societies did never teach ourselves how to use our brains correctly to achieve OUR DREAMS and our happiness.
What is missing in the educational system, in my opinion, is the importance of spiritual well-being and mental health of the students. Apart from enriching our brains, it is time for us to learn how to enrich our hearts and souls.
And that is why we start publishing this series called “INPress Self-Help Science”.
Let's face it. Our current educational system is no longer enough to support our society’s development needs. People born under the new generations seek for meanings in life, and hence several decades onward, I foresee that smart governments will eventually notice the importance of spiritual health and positive thinking in the school curriculums
