Synopsis
"We often rush through the moment to get to the joy. If we choose to stop and fully experience the moment we will find the joy is already present."
Could enlightened responses stop war and conflict? In the world, the office, in relationships? Life is a fast ride, but "The Enlightened Response" hands you the controls. This text demonstrates how you create your life, moment to moment, choice by choice. We can only change - creating better relationships, better health, more happiness and more wealth - if we know what we're changing.
This is a book about observation - self-observation. It teaches us to carefully watch our own lives and behaviour so that we understand what works and what doesn't - what causes us to be happy or sad; calm or stressed; peaceful or angry. Once we have this storehouse of information, we should then be able to choose responses that bring us what we do want and avoid what we don't want, in every aspect of our lives. Ross Page calls these choices "enlightened responses", and they are based on self-knowledge and awareness - made with conscious choice, not out of habit.
Beginning with simple observations of daily chores, self-observation can also bring us instant moments of peace. When we are totally focused on an activity in the present, we cannot possibly be haunted by the past or anxious about the future. Stress is completely banished. We can then consciously extend these moments into hours and eventually create a life of enlightened responses instead of strings of "knee-jerk" reactions.
"The Enlightened Response" aims to help us fine-tune the tools we already possess to maximize our potential for living a happy and rewarding life. First, hit the PAUSE button - look at what you've got, consider what you're offered, and choose an "enlightened response".
The author asks us to imagine a world where everyone chooses Enlightened Responses. He says, ‘If we can imagine it, we can create it.’

Review
"The Enlightened Response fine-tunes the tools we already possess to maximise our potential for living a happy and rewarding life." -- Namaste Magazine, June 2002
From the Publisher
Ross' work, whether in the training room or the counselling room, has been reported by many as a major turning point in their lives. It was the intention of the publisher to convey the essence of that work to the reader by presenting Ross' manuscript in such a way that the methods, techniques and anecdotes came to life. Ross' workshops are active, powerful and entertaining - we hope you find his book produces the same effects.
