This is what Amazon is saying about Become the Force: 9 Lessons on How to Live as a Jediist Master – For anyone who has watched and fallen in love with the Star Wars films and wanted to become a Jedi (just as Daniel M Jones did as a young boy). This is the first and only Jedi Bible.

Daniel M Jones founded the Church of Jediism in 2007 following the Jedi Census phenomenon of 2001; it now has over 500,000 members around the world. This is the book his fans have been waiting for. In it, Daniel outlines the Jedi perspective and provides practical tools for anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of how to use the Force in everyday life. A metaphor for the universal life energy that connects us all, the Force can be both light and dark, good and bad. Now, more than ever, it is our responsibility to overcome the Dark Side. This book does not aim to convert, but to inspire its readers to live a life of meaning and purpose according to the universal spiritual teachings of “the way of the Jedi”.

It includes:
Daniel’s own fascinating spiritual journey and how overcoming personal struggles has awakened him to his purpose.
A complete toolkit that will allow anyone to genuinely embrace “the way of the Jedi” and use Jedi teachings to empower mind, body, heart and spirit.
A comprehensive explanation of Jediism as a spiritual movement (a universal desire for self-awareness, spiritual awakening, peace, love and harmony) rather than a religion.

Become the Force shows that the Jedi-minded among us might usher in a new spirituality and shift in global consciousness towards peace and harmony that is more powerful than any we can possibly imagine.

Daniel is very careful to point out that Jediism isn’t a religion. The word “church” is used as it was originally intended “a group of like minded people”. Jediism is a philosophical movement. The aim is to give people tools to help them make sense of the world using the teachings of Star Wars. 

This might sound laughable to some people but actually the films were created with just that in mind. In a world where many people are increasingly disillusioned with the religious and philosophical choices we have been presented with over the years, why not update the concept of a religious text to include sci-fi? The ideas are no more fanciful relative to our understanding of the world than Christian or Hindu religious texts were to the people who originally created them (and let’s not forget that every religious text was created by man, wherever you believe the inspiration came from, the actual text was written by man.).

Although I wasn’t involved in the writing of Become the Force, I am honoured to have been asked to create a mindfulness course for the new training modules which will accompany this ground breaking book.

It’s times like this having a videographer/musician husband comes in very handy!

After weeks of creating the course we spent a day filming in our front room, I don’t know what the neighbours would have thought when they walked past and saw this in the middle of the room! 

Here is the trailer for my mindfulness course. I’m so proud of the production of these videos. We’re a good team me and my hubby! 

If you want to find out more about the other courses, which will be available through the Church of Jediism website next week, you can watch all the trailers on their YouTube Channel.
