Practical Consciousness is a great and insightful book. Ingvar Villido presents very clear, direct, and easy-to-use instructions to release hidden afflictions caused by emotions. Your emotions may be barely recognizable in everyday life, but he provides a tested way you can free yourself from internal forces causing suffering, physical pain, and confusion. Ultimately, he demonstrates how you can simply access your own underlying, natural experience of true freedom, joy, and self-realization.

This book provides remarkable, practical, and instantly applicable tools for anyone feeling stressed, weighed down, or perhaps simply feeling the pull toward more inner peace. Highly recommended!

AMY LINDGREN, M.D., Ph.D., obstetrician/gynecologist

I heard about Ingvar as a yogi from someone visiting me in India. In Estonia, I was happy to see the Indian spiritual tradition and heritage that grew around him in a beautiful community. When he visited me in India, I came across his global following, a respectful sangha. His work of wisdom and compassion was marked in his disciples and followers. I believe his teachings, thoughts, and practices will bring new light to the West, evolving out of the Indian Siddha tradition.

KULAVADHUTA SATPURANANDA, scholar, spiritual master, and holder of the lineages of Vajrayana Buddhist Tantra and Swayambhunatha through Baba Byom Shankar Aghori and Baba Ramnatha Aghori, India

Ingvars message is a precious gem that is hidden in this book. The techniques and tools he has detailed are life changing! I can vouch from personal experience that by practicing the Practical Consciousness techniques, you can get rid of negative emotions and drive your lifes journey with awareness. Happy conscious reading!

ABHA GULATI, M.D., clinical development scientist

I am grateful for Ingvars teachings and find them structured, very precise, and practical. They are simple, universal, stand-alone practices, and also complementary to any other practices. They help me reach and stay in the zone, a state of embodied awareness in daily activities.

TIINA SEPP, Ph.D., biotech consultant

A wonderfully lucid understanding of our emotions, how they work for and against usand the vitally important understanding of our energetic anatomyand how to become free of their constraints. The emotional release techniques in the second half of the book seemed too simple at first, but I stuck with them and they worked. Im sure theyll work for you as well.

FRED BLUM, D.C., self-inquiry coach and speaker

I love this book. It is based on profound experiential knowledge and it is a gift to all of us in any field of life. Emotions begin as reactions to experiences, but then the emotions themselves cloud us and keep us bound to the stressful conditioned state we call our normal selves. The author expertly guides us through the process of unbinding from this often-unconscious emotional conditioning to experiencing life more directly, more peacefully, more richly, that is, as he explains, in natural clarity. This book is for anyone, from those wanting to be released from emotional baggage to those wanting to shed the illusion of our conceptual selves and live awake, aware, and present.

MOIRA CATHCART, registered psychologist, Australia

This book explains many life mysteries exceptionally clearly, opening the path not only to deep self-knowledge, but to practical self-mastery. Personal transformation, therefore, becomes a silent revolution benefitting everyone. I highly recommend this book to anyone on the quest of improving their lives, finding themselves, and unfolding their potentials.

KAIDI TAMM, Ph.D., sustainability expert, co-author of PersonalSustainability: Exploring the Far Side of Sustainable Development, Germany

Ingvar Villido has distilled my fifty years of exploring the interface of eastern and western realities into a simple, accessible, and most importantly, practical vehicle for enhancing ones life. I applaud his insights, his creativity, and clearly, his love for humanity.

FRANK HOFFMAN, M.D., psychiatrist

Emotion is central to the quality and range of everyday human experience. The psychological consequences and mechanisms underlying the emotional modulation of cognition provide the focus of this book. It is a great read for both prepared and unprepared readers. It can become an everyday guide for people living in modern society where they are confronted with controversial and emotionally charged information daily. It is great to have easy techniques that can be used anywhere and anytime to help us become masters of our emotions.
