Dedicated To My Mum
I dedicate this book to my mum, who struggled with her mental health and was heavily medicated, experiencing 8 electric shock treatments in the 1970’s. Experiencing a broken home and separation, myself and my young brother were taken into a children’s home, growing up in the system from 1974 – 1983. My young sister fostered from birth. The rest is history.
Children Are Our Future
Inner-Sense > Imagination > Vision: As adults, parents, guardians, teachers, coaches and mentors, we have the responsibility to guide our children through this technology information age, inspiring their bright minds and teaching them to live from the heart. Learning to feel, sense and be, developing their inner-sense and heart-mind intelligence, empowering their imagination, vision and purpose.
Introduction
In my first book ‘Activating Flow, Releasing The Power Within’, published in 2022, I share my life experience, the journey from the head back to the heart and the 3 stages of activating flow. Stage 1. Human Biology – Reaction, the wounded child, stuck in a a left brain belief system. Stage 2. Human Technology – Response, becoming emotionally self aware, exercising heart-mind intelligence. Stage 3. Switching On, Tuning In, connecting to the universal flow of potential. My book goes through the 3 stages in detail and will give you great insight and self-awareness, inspiring and supporting you on your personal journey.
The introduction will take you through my life experience, retiring from professional boxing in 1997, finding my calling, coming to work in alternative learning, whilst developing my work, discovering of the left and right brain hemisphere’s, how many youth were switched off, stuck in their heads more left brain dominant. Experiencing brain gym, I started integrating it in to my BoxWize Skills System, teaching young people how to switch on both left and right brain, improving emotional awareness and heart-mind intelligence. Studying stress, human biology and behaviour for over 28 years, creating my concept human technology. In this introduction I share my perspective on how those who control the the world of information and language, have created the matrix, the left brain mental constructs of control, and fear based mind programming and social conditioning. The introduction will give you the self awareness to connect the dots, seeing beyond the matrix as we go through the great awakening.
Carl’s Journey > Discovering The Left & Right Brain Hemisphere’s – Switching Off!
Sportsman, Coach and Mentor – With Over 35 Years Experience: Born in Hull, UK, in 1968, separated through family difficulties, I grew up in children’s home from the age of 6 to 15 (1974-1983). Struggling with my past and lost on the streets, reconnecting with long distance running instilled in me at school, inspired through depression, I experienced a mental breakdown and emotional break through around the age of 17-18, 1985/86, connecting to the universal flow of potential that would guide me through life – which I share in my first self-published book, ‘Activating Flow’. Taking control, moving on to play semi professional soccer, caught in the late 1980′-90’s dance and drug culture, I experienced 2 more break downs and break throughs, boxing amateur and professional my greatest shift, in 1997 I found my calling working in alternate learning with young people experiencing emotional challenging behaviour. Setting up boxing bags in a shed at the back of the school, teaching the boxing fundamentals and sharing my life experience, I started developing my BoxWize Skills concept, teaching young people how to control, release and channel emotional stress and physical energy positively.

Human Biology: Stress – Fear > Our Reactive Caveman Software: Freeze > Flight > Fight > Fawn
Over 28 Years: Studying Stress – Human Biology > Human Technology: Studying stress, human biology and behavior for over 28 years, I created my concept human technology. Human biology: Stress – Fear – Reaction: Learning to understand how many of us are unaware we are running our old amygdala reactive caveman software; Freeze, Flight, Fight and Fawn, stuck more in our heads, running a belief system on our internal hard drive and operating system. Whilst hunting to survive and feed the family, when facing the saber tooth tiger or woolly mammoth, the caveman would experience potential fear and danger. Triggering the amygdala reactive part of the brain, the caveman would experience Freeze: feeling overwhelmed, powerless and shutting down, consumed and shutting down he would get eaten up in the situation. Flight: the caveman would run and get away, avoiding the stress of dealing with the situation, living to hunt another day. Fight: the caveman would use aggression but could often lose control, caught in a fight for survival. Fawn: is a common reaction in today’s world, known as people pleasing, avoiding uncomfortable conversations, hiding behind our emotions, giving our power and control to appease a person, situation or an authority.
The Left & Right Brain Hemisphere’s: Whilst developing BoxWize, I discovered brain gym, learning about our left and right hemispheres of the brain. More dominant left brainer’s are logical, analytical, linear thinkers, good with math, often in a career such as an accountant, scientist or computer programmer. More dominant right brainer’s are spontaneous, creative and more emotional than left-brainers, intuitive, good at problem solving, comfortable with the unknown, compassionate and more connected to the heart. The right brain absorbing sensory information, is more connected to the heart, helping us to integrate reasoning, managing emotions, addressing deeper issues, solution seeking and problem solving from a holistic perspective.
Headucation – The Right Brain Switching Off > Blocked Pathways In The Brain: The Education system emphasizes the left brain dominance of language and logic over the right brains more intuitive and creative faculties, activated through rhythm and movement. Coming in to 2,000’s, through the external influence of technology’s, video gaming and reactive mind programming, the increase of WiFi within school’s, EMF’s – low energy electromagnetic frequencies, experiencing over stimulation, information overload and excessive stress, struggling to process through thoughts feelings and emotions and lack of physical movement, can cause the right brain to be overridden, effectively shutting down and switching off. This can result in blocked pathways in the brain, poor concentration, degraded listening skills, poor memory and more, becoming more left brain dominant.
Schools Like Big Pharma Stress Factories – The Rise Of Designer Labels – ADD, ADHD…: Along with the vulnerability of reactive programming and social conditioning, more and more young people struggling with stress and headucation, switching off and stuck in their heads, schools like Big pharma stress factories, a more left brain dominant world was amplifying and accelerating the rise of designer labels such as ADD – Attention Deficit Disorder, ADHD – Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, with emotional confusion being medicated, the mental health crises, addiction to Big Pharma prescription drugs and medication, promoted in schools and society world wide.
Becoming left brain dominant we can become self absorbed by the ego, taking ourselves serious and more consumed by the external world and materialism. We can experience cognitive dissonance, uncomfortable when having deeper conversations, we can feel sensitive, often struggling too critically think, switching off when challenged to change our beliefs. Stuck in our heads and left brain, we can be emotionally vulnerable to mind programming, in the world of think, feel, do, taught what to think, how to feel and what to do.
Leadership > Politics and Mind Tricks > The Left & The Right: It’s fascinating to see how there is a left and a right, choose a side in a left brain dominant world, mainstream media persuasion, the politics and mind tricks, behind the scenes, are the left and the right both wings of the same bird?. The left and the right, a designed division, separating the heads from the hearts and dividing people, when we need to come together to get to the heart of the matter.
Let’s now look at how our electromagnetic energy system is interconnected to the electromagnetic universal flow, learning to activate our human technology, switching on and tuning in to our heart-mind intelligence!.
