Don Tolman

A Modern Day "Einstein" of Self-Care & Self-Education...

Don Tolman has been referred to as a modern day "Einstein".

When you experience his raw genius for the first time and the

brilliantly captivating way in which he delivers his profound

message, you'll see why.

Don will take you on a truly amazing journey of discovery by

introducing two major revolutions that are upon us - Self-Care and

Self-Education. The centrepiece of his powerful message is an

understanding as to how you can live a life free from disease by

embracing the 7 Principles of Health.

Don has worked with some of the world's most prestigious cancer

institutes throughout his journey. Called in by Doctors to provide

alternative perspectives to traditional treaments and therapy, he

has guided countless patients ‘written off’ by the medical system

back to full recovery.

Don is also an expert in creating applied pre-imagined curriculums

of accelerated learning where he teaches adults and children to

maximise their learning, creativity and achievement through

Imagination.

Known to thousands as a brilliant public speaker, Don has travelled

the globe delivering his unique and empowering presentations. He

has been a return guest on the Donahue Show, Entertainment

Tonight and ABC Talk Radio in the US and Mornings with

Kerri-Anne in Australia. TV talk show host, Phil Donahue, stated

upon Don appearing on his show, “Like what he says or not; it’s

people like Don Tolman who, in their own unique way, will impact

social change.”

His revolutionary discoveries in the field of whole food nutrition

earned him the right to speak at some of the world's leading health

and technology organisations such as the Massachusetts Institute

of Technology (MIT), the Health Research Academy at Cornell

University in New York City and the prestigious Johns Hopkins

Hospital in Baltimore.

Don’s commitment to learning about health and the human body is

evidenced by the fact that he has completed a 40 day, water-only

fast, 3 times and has also inspired many others through this

incredible, ‘health-transforming’ experience.

In 2006, in Australia he jammed switchboards after appearing on

Channel 10 and in New Zealand a planned 5 minute TV interview

on The Good-Morning Show extended for 35 minutes, such was the

interest in what Don had to say.

Don is a distinguished communications facilitator and

vocabulary-enhancement trainer. He has studied in-depth, areas of

applied behavioral and cognitive science, as well as neurology,

semiotics, operant conditioning and Gestalt Theorem.

Through his experimentation with nutrition and extended fasting

and his experience in applying the 7 Principles of Health to many

terminally ill patients over many years, Don has also made it his

mission to inform people about how to de-mystify disease and live

a healthy life full of happiness and vitality.

In 2006, after 3 years in the making, Don released his much

awaited, 1,600 page, 2 volume, encyclopedia of wholefood

medicine, the Farmacist Desk Reference. Today, Don travels the

globe sharing the wisdom of Self-Care and Self-Education with

thousands of people through his events and programs.

Greatness

Everyone Can Become Great

“It is within the power of every man to become great.” ~ Wallace D. Wattles from The Science of Being Great

Do you think you can become great? Coupla things on that: 1) EVERYONE can become great; and, 2) As per Ford, “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.”

Too often we look at those we admire and think it must have been their destiny to achieve greatness. Something in their genes or astrological chart or just sheer luck.

Huh? That’s just a REALLY weak excuse for us failing to step up to our own greatness.

As Wattles says, ““It is within the power of every man to become great.”

And the great Paulo Coelho echoes that when he says, “I learned the most important lesson of my life: that the extraordinary is not the birthright of a chosen and privileged few, but of all people, even the humblest. That is my one certainty: we are all the manifestation of the divinity of God.”

YOU HAVE SEEDS OF GREATNESS IN YOU!

I hope you already know that and I hope you have enough strength to work on yourself till you manifest it and most fully give yourself to the world. Why? Well, we need it. But, more importantly, YOU need it! As Abraham Maslow states: “If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you’ll be unhappy for the rest of your life.”

You might be thinking, “Oh, but me? I can’t possibly be great. You should have seen how I was raised.” Or, “Not for me. I’m in prison.” Or, “Me? blah blah blah blah boring story blah.”

Whatever. You only need to look at so many people like Oprah or Malcolm X or 50 Cent (OMG. Former thug drug dealer turned artist turned future billionaire simply rockin’ his greatness!) to anyone else you wanna pick who had way worse circumstances than you and turned it around.

Of course, the STATISTICS will tell you that you won’t do it. But who gives a *%$# about statistics? If one in a million make it, those are great odds. How many of you are there? Just do it. :)

So, I’ll pick up my megaphone one more time: “IT IS WITHIN YOUR POWER TO BECOME GREAT!!!”

*stops yelling and sets the megaphone down* :)

The Law of Relativity

The Law of Relativity

Energy isn't positive or negative. It can't be judged without comparison. No matter how successful you are, someone will always be more successful at something than you. No matter how grim your circumstances may seem there is someone who would welcome them in contrast to their own. What is simply is. Our judgment is chosen illusion.

No goal, thought, idea or obstacle is large or small, far or near, overwhelming or simplistic until you relate it to something else. The only difference between goals that you believe to be simple to achieve and ones you believe to be challenging is what you believe about them. Are you really where you think you are? Does there have to be that many steps in between you and your goal or is that something you assume? Are the steps truly large or small?

If you change your relationship to a dream you change the attainability of it. If you dissolve the illusion of size, difficulty and distance you come to realize that any goal is equally achievable. The actions you take to attain them may be different but that doesn't make them any more difficult or time consuming. Change your perspective and you change how you relate to your goal.

Miracles

      "The role of teaching and learning is actually reversed in the thinking of the world.  The reversal is characteristic.  It seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher giving something to the learner rather than to himself.  Further, the act of teaching is regarded as a special activity, in which one engages only a relatively small proportion of one's time.  The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach is to learn, so that teacher and learner are the same.  It also emphasizes that teaching is a constant process; it goes on every moment of the day, and continues into sleeping thoughts as well." - A Course In Miracles - Manual for Teachers

     I do wish I still had my copy of "A Course In Miracles" on the shelf; going to have to get another copy.  I am experiencing so many miracles these days; love is pouring from my heart and coming back from others.  I suppose some of the learnings from the "Manual for Teachers" that had been long forgotten have miraculously been given to me again. 

     Yes, I am humble, and caring.

Namaste,

David

"NOT the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where 

the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to 

the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and

 sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short 

again and again ... who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at 

the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who 

at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly." 

--Theodore Roosevelt

In my younger years, I was the one to point out how it could have been 

done better; I now choose to step into the arena where excitement, 

growth, new learnings and joy await.
