DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>Join us for a presentation on a new approach to self-knowledge using web based tools (knowing yourself through a system that begins with your story). An innovative convergence of science, technology and sotrytelling that makes self-knowledge easy, safe and accessible. As a leading educator on the philosophy of complex systems theory as related to consciousness and self, Malabar has released books, recordings, and web-based programs related to his approach.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>According to Thane Malabar, &ldquo;there is a confusion that self-knowledge is a form of new age or metaphysical thinking; however, it is based on science.&rdquo; Malabar will explain his two-phase program for self-knowledge. His personal story serves as the introductory feature. He uses this personal account to explain the grounding concepts of complex systems theory as related to this approach to self-knowledge. Malabar teaches that fundamental to knowing yourself, is knowing your own story. Recording your story is the first step towards knowing your story.</p>=0D=0A=
<p>Storymyne.com is an online peer-to-peer structured story sharing website. After recounting their stories and creating a written text, Malabar helps students observe their daily lives. Storymyne.com and appThyself.com are web-based tools created by Malabar. The appthyself.com tool is used for the second phase of self-knowledge, information gathering. The app is used by students for gathering information in their daily lives and to create reference models for continued self-observation, reflection and analysis. Malabar has released books, recordings, and web-based programs explaining his approach to the principle. &ldquo;All the existing approaches to solving obesity, addiction, and social ills have been misguided. The top-down approach to change requires government, private business or outside influence and is missing the most vital component for success,&rdquo; according to Malabar. His theory promotes the premise that the vital component in meeting these challenges is individuals knowing them selves and long-term success can only be achieved through having a better understanding of the &ldquo;self.&rdquo;</p>=0D=0A=
<p>The teachings and applicable methods of self-knowledge that will be utilized and taught by Malabar during his tour have been developed from decades of research and development. In his book &ldquo;The Emergence of Consciousness &ndash; A New Framework for Self-knowledge,&rdquo; Thane Malabar discusses many of the theories that will be further examined on his tour across Vancouver Island.</p>=0D=0A=
