Show Notes Episode 22 – Paul Chek: Evolve Yourself Mentally
Do you feel that you’re at a place in your life where you’re growing mentally?
Or, are you so busy holding onto a set of beliefs you’re acting on — consciously or unconsciously — that you’re in a constant state of imbalance?
This third of Paul’s five-part Evolve series of Living 4D episodes will give you plenty of resources to help you begin to find that ability to grow mentally for today and the future.
Knowing you’ll have lots of questions based on the information Paul will be sharing with you, we hope you will join him for a special Instagram live event Saturday, April 13 at 12 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time/3 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time.
This is your time to discuss any questions you have about learning to evolve mentally. To do that, follow Paul on Instagram @paul.chek, then watch his live event on your mobile phone.
