A regular dose of Deepak is good for the heart and mind

In their June 1999 issue Time Magazine named Deepak Chopra as "one of the top 100 heroes and icons of the century, and credited him as the poet-prophet of alternative medicine.”

Deepak has written more than 50 books and produced more than 100 audio albums. I confess to reading at least half Deepaks books and listening to many of his tapes, however not in recent times until the weekend when rearranging my bookshelves I again paused for a dose of Deepak. His immense wisdom and simple yet profound insights into being human again left me in awe and I promised myself to have more regular doses of Deepak.

"Engaged philanthropy" a new way to serve by Phil Hayes-St Clair

I first met my Differencemakers Community colleague Phil Hayes-St Clair on a plane some years back.
From that first meeting I knew Phil was a builder of our new world. In our many conversations since I have always left inspired.

Phil's concept of "engaged philanthropy" is a brilliant one. You can read about it here.
