The library
Change what you feed your mind.
Not a syllabus - an invitation to explore. These are the books, voices, films and practices that opened questions for Peter across a thirty-year search. Their place here doesn't mean endorsement of every claim; their value may be the question they awaken rather than the answer they provide. Take what creates recognition. Question what doesn't.
Six stages of a search
01
When you first question the story
You Can Heal Your Life by Louise Hay
The Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Conversations with God by Neale Donald Walsch
Start here if something no longer fits, but you can't yet explain what you're searching for.
02
Looking beyond the world you inherited
The Bhagavad Gita
The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success by Deepak Chopra
The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle
The talks and writings of Alan Watts
Perspectives, not conditions. No particular belief is required to begin this work.
03
Mind, reality and possibility
The Matrix by the Wachowskis
The lectures of Neville Goddard
The Abraham teachings by Esther Hicks
The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
The books and meditations of Joe Dispenza
Explore with discernment - some ideas here are spiritual, channelled or scientifically debated.
04
Achievement, state and human potential
Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
State, story and strategy by Tony Robbins
Physical endurance and mountain challenges, as lived practice
Achievement can expand a life - it cannot automatically resolve the beliefs of the person achieving.
05
Bringing the pieces together
The work of David Bayer - the Two States of Being, the Five Primary Drivers and the Power of Decision gave a coherent map beneath methods Peter had encountered separately for years. A central influence on his facilitation; Nomad Mind remains Peter's own philosophy and expression.
06
The body also belongs in the journey
Nearly eight years of yoga with an Indian yogi in Glasgow
Walking, running and mountains
Holosync supported meditation
Journaling, reflection and reducing digital noise
Practices help insight move beyond the head and into the whole person.
The obvious things still matter
Simple, free, and they compound.
Daylight & rhythm
Regular time outside, especially earlier in the day
Walk in nature
A park or riverside is enough - no mountain required
Sleep & movement
Not glamorous, but they shape the state every other practice starts from
Connection & contribution
Trusted people, helping someone else, time with animals
Attention
One minute noticing the natural breath; hear the nearest sound, then the furthest
A free three-minute practice: feel your feet; notice three natural breaths; hear the nearest and furthest sounds; find one thing that is changing.
Gentle breath awareness is not intensive breathwork - deliberately forceful or prolonged breathing techniques aren't suitable for everyone and should be learned with qualified guidance.
