Publisher's Synopsis
Are we in an era today where our greatest teacher is at our fingertips? Digital Consciousness is a philosophical dialogue into the evolution of consciousness within the digital terrain and the legacy footprint on the human family. Exploring the emotional 'digital' frequency of self is a concept that Tenille Bentley has given a great deal of thought to, and some of the answers to these questions and more may surprise you. While not everyone wants to 'change the world' we do all have the power at our fingertips now to radically affect change for someone, somewhere, some place. Recognizing this ability and harnessing how we use the internet is the basis for this book. This book is also packed with examples of how people are using the internet and how digital consciousness is currently our most under appreciated and underused global resource. As we can become consciously aware of this new world, the power of it and the intentions we place in it at the click of a mouse button the effect is far greater than any of us can compute in the architecture of our minds. It's having an awareness beyond the awareness, it's caring enough to treat each post as a piece of the puzzle to the collective consciousness. Ask yourself today, what will this world look like when we reach a united level of Digital Consciousness? You have the potential in creating the world through what you perceive and search for daily. You're either controlling what the Internet gives to you or your being controlled by it. Author Q&A Interview with the Author Tenille Bentley Q: Why did you write the book Tenille? A: After building a multi million dollar business in digital at the age of 30, I realized something deeper, that I was a part of the 'new' education tool and I saw the power of this tool first hand through the hundreds of brands I would support. There came a point where I asked myself, would I be proud of this contribution to the human family on my death bed, is it something when I look back that I would say 'I did the work of good here' At the time of asking this question the answer was a no. So I knew I had to dig deeper into the philosophical disposition of this world of digital. I saw kids morph into the same behaviors as cocaine addicts, getting the next 'digital hit'. I have seen people mindlessly putting posts online and then wondering why we have a world of women with body issues, a world of violence and a world that I wouldn't be proud to present as part of a representation of me. I knew it begun with me, my thoughts, the collective and philosophical understanding of how it is all interconnected in this realm of digital. Once I went down that rabbit hole...I had no choice but to share what I found. Q: What is your desired outcome with sharing this work with the world? A: The only wish I have with the reader of this book and the outcome is to simply consider what contribution they make in the digital world, what is their digital legacy and to make the connection that clearly exists of our impact of every thought, action and word in the greater collective. I would love for them to go on and share this work, to be inspired to make a difference in the world and to realize it begins with them. Our next generation is coming into a beautiful chaos, and we need to be able to educate them of how to handle this, the practice of love and not fear. And it all begins with the reader of this book. Q: Tell us more about what you do outside of this work? I have launched an extension of this book into a global academy for kids called The Emotional Literacy and Mindfulness Academy. The Emotional Literacy and Mindfulness Academy is a place where kids learn about their emotional grid system, how to manage it, they learn to meditate and apply practical tools of application in the real world using mindfulness techniques to arm them with the capacity to unplug in a plugged in world. www.emotionalliteracyacademy.com for more.
