Be More Conscious
An Invitation to Greater Self-Awareness
The word conscious means to be awake—aware of one’s inner and outer worlds.
Being more conscious means paying attention to what we think and how we behave.
It’s about being present and self-aware—a lifelong journey with no destination, no endpoint. When we embark on it, we learn our inner landscape creates our outer world.
We realize our mindset, attitudes, and beliefs shape our lives. And we learn that sustainable personal growth occurs when we know and accept who we are.
Be More Conscious is an expression of my life’s journey.
“Love has come to rule and transform; Stay awake, my heart, stay awake.”
~ Rumi
Living A Conscious Life
How to Find Peace, Wholeness and Freedom in a Chaotic World
With wild tales and lessons ranging from failed vasectomies to how men should embrace their feminine energy—and the importance of connecting with our inner selves, Don Johnson, a former renegade of the 1960s counterculture movement, has mastered how to recognize—and share—his life lessons in every challenging circumstance, sometimes with humor and often with deep reverence for the possibilities to be more conscious.

A little bit about me:
I’ve had my share of ups and downs, and certainly no saint, but I keep trying to be my best.
Now that I’m in the final third of my life, I appreciate even more things like:
- The importance of forgiveness of self and others.
- The need for kindness in the world.
- Asking myself what I don’t know before jumping to a conclusion.
- Being grateful for being alive and healthy.
- Having a spiritual practice that brings me great peace and happiness.
