Lo Sport

From that moment I started practicing several sports over the years: I became aerobics instructor and took part in Latin American dance performances, I ran the New York and Berlin marathons, I became a sport climbing instructor, and I ran triathlons. During the winter, I ski, and practice rock climbing. During summer months, I mountain bike and kitesurf. Sport has become one of my most great passions, which I still use today as a continuous research tool on my body, mind and soul.

It has become a practice closer to the exploration of the infinite possibilities of the body, especially when it is in true communion with the mind till I gradually lost interest over sports performance. I no longer feel the need prove myself to others, neither myself, about my own skills.

Overcoming my limits through sport tastes more like curiosity about understanding how far I could go when my mind is focused and my relaxed body just follows my commands.

Also I have started to practice sports where the connection with each other or others becomes a determining factor since I never have practiced in team sport previously.

I have begun to practice with great fun and lightness acroyoga, or acrobatic yoga, which is practiced together with another person. Concentration and capability to keep focused is the basis but then there’s also the trust and ability to connect with the other person.

It’s always very important to keep in contact with my inner self in solitude and with nature in order to regenerate. Trekking and long walks are something I do everywhere I go, mountains, sea, desert or hills. What is enough for me is nature, fresh air, silence and solitude.

Personal Growth

Ever since I started my journey with Dale Carnegie, I’ve never stopped training. My holidays have all turned into research and exploration trips all over the world on all 5 continents.

Important and sometimes even extreme experiences including fasting, isolation, learning in close contact with Masters of different religions and philosophies including Buddhism with Master Thich Nhat Han, Hinduism in different ashrams in Bali, the Franciscan style, different hermitages in Umbria, Native Americans traditions with different shamans and curandere and then an endless series of courses and routes around the world.
I spent several years in this way without prioritizing money or proximity. When a master inspires me, I don’t care what he is, I go there and I dive into their teachings: United States, Canada, Malaysia, Bali, Thailand, Brazil. These are just few of the places I visited during my growth all these years since 1993.
Also the ways had their importance. The Way of Fatima, Santiago, Saint Francis and also the Way of Israel with the desert of the Negev, where Jesus spent his 40 days fasting (at least so they say) all strictly alone. In order to process all this, I had a sabbatical longer than one year. Everything I learned about all that time and energy invested in my personal growth is that despite frames, names and traditions, the basic principles are always the same. It’s something that often can be heard or read.

Experiencing this firsthand, I understood it internally and deeply and I feel the freedom to participate in a mass, a shamanic ritual and a Buddhist meditation perceiving, as if they were trees, the roots that draw from the same source and the branches that go in the same direction.

Sabbatical Year

In 2014 due to a strong “call” I took my sabbatical year. At the beginning it looked impossible to me leaving out a company with collaborators, an important management office under lease, many projects in the long run with corporations and individual customers. I needed about 2 years of organization and preparation in order to fix up everything. The year is dedicated to deep listening and programming absence.

I ran out from years of planning and pianification. In January I already had many of my days booked by programs with business customers and scheduled courses even with the ending days related to companies projects and scheduled Christmas dinners.

I feel the need of inner freedom and listening, to cut out certainties and security built over years in order to find out what else there is.

I took 22 planes that year touching many countries and getting several different experiences, always related to personal growth. Experiences included 6 weeks in a Buddhist monastery, crossing Israel by foot, the ashrams of Bali and the vast Australia with unspoilt landscapes were among the most important experiences.

The sabbatical period makes me understand that the adventure as an entrepreneur needed to be over in order to return to devote myself full-time into exploration, study and sharing through books, seminars, video, growth paths, programs in companies.

The company meant to support my mission but at the cost of too much energies for me at the expenses of the mission itself.

At the end of the sabbatical year, my mission remain the same it just changes the way.

I keep on dealing with training, tutoring, coaching and consulting but leaving out the burden of the old set-up about a structured organization and an office.

Videos and Audio courses

With video and audio courses I have a chance to express myself and share the way I feel most simple and direct, which is throughout words.

In this way the words are not lost but could be heard several times from anyone in every moment by accessing the inspiration contained, not only by those who were present in a specific seminar.

I myself sometimes listen back to my recordings and often get new and unexpected insights or reach a deeper level of understanding.

Unconventional time management tools, cleaning and empowering of energy centers (chakras) , audio tracks to learn meditation, practical tools to problem solving, communicate more easily and effectively with everyone, improve quality of relationships, thoughts and emotions management… all these are the main areas covered.
