Your inner life—the constant stream of thoughts, emotions, and desires—shapes everything about how you experience reality. Yet most people never manage it intentionally. Instead of drifting toward chaos, what if you could train your consciousness like Jesus did? Discover why the busier your life becomes, the more you need withdrawal.
