Ripe & Ready is a global wisdom, wellbeing and world-change community that has just launched. Its mission is to create enlightening, empowering and enabling media and immersive experiences that help the digital generations, and our world, to thrive.
The new website features: a curated Best of Web section, The Adventurer’s Guide to Thriving as well as the Switch On Channel with access to founder Nick Jankel’s new book.
Switch On presents a comprehensive life philosophy (and handbook and playbook) for how to thrive in the world by using creativity to break through any problem, whether feeling stuck at work, in relationships or with a business challenge. With an explicit call to turn inspiration into action, the Switch On experience is as much for those interested in changing their companies, communities and the world as it is for those wanting to shift things in their own lives.
At the heart of the book is the 10-step Breakthrough Curve, a cutting-edge process that will empower you to unleash your creativity, cultivate mindfulness, banish stress, heal emotional pain, experience enlightenment, find your purpose and make ideas happen, even in the face of old habits and mindsets. Along the Curve, we ride through (1) Problems, (2) Patterns, (3) Pain, (4) Presence, (5) Peace, (6) Purpose, (7) Possibility, (8) Power, (9) Play and (10) Proactivity.
Based on 20 years of pioneering research and practice in disruptive innovation, leadership and transformation, Switch On launches Breakthrough Biodynamics, an elegant and groundbreaking integration of major advances in neuroscience, complexity theory, consciousness studies and evolutionary biology with priceless teachings from the great wisdom traditions such as Taoism (e.g the Tao Te Ching, Chuang Tzu), Sufism (e.g. Rumi, Hafiz), Stoicism (e.g. Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus), Kabbalah (e.g. the Zohar), Advaita Vedanta (e.g. Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads), Zen Buddhism and the work of Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi.
