L’Aquila Active’s mission is to empower the individual through the expansion of individual and collective consciousness.
We believe that the greatest form of intelligence is consciousness, and we believe the highest form of consciousness is unconditional love.
We feel that as our society fully enters the informational age and the 4th industrial revolution, many analytical and logical left brain functions, such as memory, will lose value as technology and information continue to increase and spread and artificial intelligence and classical/quantum computational systems mature.
Yoga and meditation are amongst the most powerful tools to increase consciousness while also optimizing bodily health and wellness.
They activate the body and the subconscious mind through the parasympathetic nervous system known as the rest and digest response. In turn, this steers the body away from the opposite, contrapositive branch of the nervous system, the sympathetic nervous system, which is a primitive limbic system reflex and only valuable in the presence of true danger.
This sets the stage for the body and mind, neurobiologically, to transcend fear and live in a state of love.
Physically, this has powerful effects on the body and allows it to “heal” itself naturally by helping the mind listen to the body through better cerebrospinal fluid transmission and etheric nervous system functioning, and improved endocrine and organ functioning.
Yoga and meditation also improve heart health and circulation physically, but it also improves the heart-mind connection which also promotes love and empathy through sensory neurites found in the heart which speak directly through the brain.
There are also many, many other positive benefits derived from these ancient and beautiful practices that have stood the test of time for millennia. We explore as many of these as possible each week with our team of experts from around the world!
When all of those bodily systems are functioning optimally it can expand both the human biofield and electromagnetic field, which in turn can increase global coherence. Studies have proven this promotes global cooperation, balance, and peace while also reducing crime.
This approach is in congruence with many natural systems on Earth, like water, that uses self-organizing holarchic open systems as a model for autonomous self-governance. Rather than trying to dominate nature, we believe we should be trying to emulate it.
We believe that, collectively, this is a more logical, empathic, and healthier global approach to health and wellness rather than solely relying on pharmaceuticals, which although necessary for some, often have a laundry list of side effects and often (especially with chronic conditions and mental illnesses/disorders) treat the symptoms rather than the root causes of suffering.
This western and archaic model was a byproduct of the third industrial revolution and the advancement of hydrocarbons, is largely driven by both profit and control, and is incongruent to natural law. It is increasingly expensive for society as people live longer and also unnecessarily leads to increased depression, stress, and anxiety around the world.
Rather than just looking outwards for solutions, we should look inwards.
We believe the greatest form of technology ever created was the human body, and we intend to disrupt the existing model by returning us, sustainably, back to nature.
This is where we all belong.
