“When you discover the joy of learning you discover the joy of living.
When you master the skill of learning you master the skill of living.”
~ Philip Keay
During our 16 weeks together we will educate and empower ourselves by exploring, discussing, learning about and reflecting upon the workings of our inner world (our mind, body and soul), how they work, and how they are interconnected with the world around us, so that we can:
reconnect to our roots and align with our true nature and suppressed intelligence
learn how to nurture, nourish and cherish ourselves
take up our personal responsibility for protecting and promoting the wellbeing of Mother Earth
and be a mentor, motivator and an inspiring leader for others to do in kind.
It is a truism in human life that everything we do, think, say, feel, see, hear, say, observe, judge, desire, dream about, wish for, experience, produce, create, build, learn, know and, understand is done by or goes through our mind.
Yet where in the world can we go to learn about this mind of ours that our whole life is built upon? Nowhere! That is unthinkable.
A Spiritual Revolution is a learning journey to fundamentally empower ourselves and transform our life
But your self-empowerment and ability to transform your life, health and relationships does not rest upon knowledge alone.
Philip—he is me!—will facilitate a mind-expanding, heart-friendly, emotionally supportive Task-Based Learning experience during lesson time. This means plenty of inquiry, exploration, discussion and task-solving in pairs and small groups, along with whole group conversations and reflection-on-learning activities.
A crucial part of your learning experience is to observe and reflect on the way Philip builds a close-knit community and learning environment where all group members are inspired to reach for their best and empowered by the experience of self-improvement in a team setting.
By the end of the 16 weeks you will have become a skilled learner, active listener, articulate communicator, critical reader,
By the end of this course you will
be a skilled learner and communicator
understand how your mind, body and soul work
5 Foundational Pillars · 5 Steps · 5 Macro Benefits
Learn who you truly are and watch your life take off
Humanity’s future, forged today, is all about relationships: the relationship we have with ourself, with our thoughts and feelings, with others, with ideas and insights, and with Mother Earth herself. The bedrock of relationships is communication skills; the durability and evolution of your relationships rests on your ability to learn, adapt, be flexible, change and grow.
The degree of enjoyment, success and fulfillment that you experience in life is, therefore, directly proportional to the level of your communication and learning skills.
When or where did you ever get training in the learning, listening, communication and social interaction skills? For probably 99% of adults the answer is “Never and nowhere", least of all during our schooling.
My job as a rebel educator—whatever course or program I may be teaching—is to create a learning environment and design learning materials that combine to inspire my students with a transformational learning experience. After learning in my classes, you will be an autonomous, intrinsically motivated, lifelong learner, which empowers and enables you to ascend to your individual sovereignty.
And THAT is your true self-empowerment, transformation and healing.
It is your liberation from the devastating burdens we all carry from the anti-social, anti-intelligence, anti-love, anti-human, anti-education that has been foisted onto over 99% of children for multiple generations.
You swap self-doubt for self-belief, self-sabotage for self-growth, social awkwardness for social self-confidence, emotional enslavement for spiritual freedom, and conditioned ignorance in favour of your suppressed innate intelligence. By “intelligence” we mean the ability to live in harmony - with yourself, with others and with life.
As a student on my “Mastering the Art and Joy of Being Human” Learning Progam, you acquire the skillset, knowledge base and mindset an adult needs to build a meaningful, rewarding, healthy, harmonious and happy life,
is my most ambitious, comprehensive and holistic learning program yet. It draws upon all my experience facilitating adult language students and

Reconnect with your roots, align with your true nature, be the real true you
Master your own life, health and destiny; be in control of your FATE - Feelings, Actions, Thoughts and Emotions (well, most of the time!)
Be skilled in building strong healthy relationships and communities
Be a proactive contributor to the building of a better world and the healing of humankind
When you learn and master two skills—the learning skill and communication skills—and while doing this you inquire into, learn about, understand, and start living as the real true you, you totally transform the way you experience and engage with life. This is top level self-empowerment, and now the sky is your limit, the world your oyster and the universe your boundary.
This learning program is the crucial second, holistic, education that all adults need to unlearn and undo all the considerable (and often devastating) damage done to us by the school systems. That matrix they talk about? It’s not out there, it’s in you. You have to get it out of you. Now you can.
The Foundation
The Blueprint
The Architect
The Foundation
You build your 5-Pillar Foundation by learning about, practising and mastering:
the learning skill: collaborative learning, self-inquiry, asking questions, challenging answers, discerning, interpreting, expanding perspectives, critical thinking, reflective thinking, doing action research, observation, awareness, reading, writing
communication skills: interactive listening, conversation, social interaction, discussion and debate, storytelling, presenting (understanding others, being understood by others)
self-leadership skills (true basis for inspiring leadership of others): facilitating, self-accountability, problem-solving, setting and rising to challenges, living with purpose understanding and direction, heart-centred living, holistic health
self-knowledge: inquiring into and understanding the inner workings your mind, body and soul, and how they interconnect with the web of life around you;
self-belief: as we develop and master the social interaction and collaborative learning skills and our knowledge base, our self-belief, self-confidence and self-worth increase

Dear Friend
Fundamental to being in charge of your own life, health and destiny; having strong healthy relationships with yourself, others, and the whole web of life; and being able to positively shape our own environment and the world, requires you to be skilled in navigating change.
Yet…
School systems and societies the world over ‘educate’ us in such a way that we lack the wherewithal to make any kind of meanginful change to our life, and therefore we subconsciously resist or fear it. It’s why New Year’s resolutions are always over by February 1st. It’s why we keep ourselves stuck in our so-called comfort zone. It’s why we run from cognitive dissonance instead of exploring it.
This is a catastrophe for humankind…
At its core life is the flow of energy
the flow of energy is movement
and movement is change.
Therefore life IS change.
Did you really want to be fearing and resisting life itself?!
Learn how to do change and you learn how to do life. When change is exciting, so too is life.
Your relationship with change defines your life.
As a rebel educator and engineer of learning I write cutting edge learning materials and create an emotionally supportive, mind-expanding, heart-friendly learning environment that motivates and inspires my adult students into mastering the foundational skills, self-knowledge and self-belief we all need to make good in our life, but which our schooling denied us. After 16 weeks you will:
be in charge of your own life, health and destiny
take life on with curiosity and confidence, purpose and poise, gratitude and gusto
have gained the skills and know-how to make personal development and spiritual self-growth an integral feature of your life; making change, problem-solving, overcoming challenges, being resilient, growing and evolving an exciting aspect of your life
be an active contributor to the healing of humankind and the building of a far saner and more loving world.
This is your reward for taking 16 weeks of time out in your life to become skilled in educating and empowering yourself. Looked at in this context, with a lifetime of ever-evolving benefits, 16 weeks seems like a short time! And, based on pretty much all my past students, you won’t want the course to end.
~~~
The rest of this page will outline what you can expect to learn, what the learning experience entails, and what specific benefits you will gain if you become one of the students on this learning program.
First up, though, is a glimpse into what the learning experience will be like, in the words of past students that I’ve trained live and online (we use the Zoom platform for our classroom)
Hope to see you on the program!

Learning with Philip
The following feedback comes from participants on a facilitation skills training program I was asked to create and teach online, in the summer of 2024, to over 250 group leaders of Connecting Consciousness, a worldwide spiritual community of 100,000+ members in dozens of countries. It was a 4-session course, which I taught to groups of 50-100.
All the content in this mini course will be in the Mastering the Art of Being Human program.
A 16-session course limited to just 12 students, you may surmise therefore, will be even more powerful, intimate and transformative…
A Spiritual Revolution
Mastering the Art of Being Human
16 Weeks of Premier Training in Personal Development and Spiritual Self-Growth to Radically Transform your Life, Health and Destiny
Lifelong Learning & Conscious Living Skills
Self-Knowledge · Self-Awareness · Holistic Health
You don’t just learn about personal development, you discuss it, you do it, you reflect on it, you understand it, you become skilled in it.
That means you need to master the learning, communication and self-leadership skills. Which brings me to a truism about human life…
The learning skill is TheMother of all Skills
The communication skill is The Father of all Skills
These parents have multiple siblings!
It is this family of skills that you practise, develop and master during the 80 hours of this learning program, indeed leading you to ‘Mastering the Art of Being Human’.
We have a second truism:
However powerful and uplifting a personal development book may be, one thing it can never do is enable the reader to master the learning, communication and social interaction skills. They can only be practised and developed in a group-learning situation.
So just imagine…
if you do find that powerful and uplifting personal development book…
and you get a transformational teacher teaching his own book…
and you get an intimate group-learning environment…
and you get to master these essential life skills…
then you have the recipe for transforming your life, health and destiny.
That recipe is this learning program.
Made and born as a social creature, the bedrock of our lives is our relationships with others.
The bedrock of successful, long-lasting relationships is mastery of the communication skills.
To master the communication skill you need to master the learning skill, and vice versa.
Where in life do you find LIVE learning programs that enable you to master these two skills?
Just for a minute, imagine how your life will change when you are a skilled learner and communicator.
After 80 hours of constant practice during our time together, your bedrock will be earthquake-proof! During the 16 weeks you will quickly find yourself:
becoming an attentive listener
becoming an articulate communicator
becoming socially confident in all situations
becoming skilled in critical thinking, reading and reflective learning
and growing in self-belief and self-esteem
This is mastering the art and joy of being human!
Definition of Terms
What do we mean by ‘spirituality’ anyway?
Forget about the ‘spirituality’ of New Age and all its fluffy woo-woo stuff, let’s get the real meaning back into spirituality. In short, it’s the inner you living in harmony with the outer world, no longer living in almost perpetual stress and inner conflict. This requires us to live with intelligence, courage and integrity.
Spiritual living is being aligned with your true nature, being connected to the web of life, and cultivating harmonious relationships with others. Spiritual living is living as the real true you, no longer trapped in the societal-suppressed version of ‘you’.
A Spiritual Revolution is a 5-step learning journey of guided self-inquiry to gain the skills, self-knowledge and self-belief you need to become the real true you. This learning journey inspires you to unblock your mind, unlock your heart and unleash your spirit. Now you can live spiritually with optimal health, harmony and happiness.
Menu for A Spiritual Revolution: Health Harmony & Happiness is Philip’s uplifting, self-empowering, life-changing book which navigates you towards self-knowledge of your mind, body and soul, inspiring you onto a lifelong journey of ongoing personal development and spiritual self-growth.
A Spiritual Revolution: Mastering the Art of Being Human is an one of its kind educational offering from Philip Keay, author of the book. Students feel motivated, empowered and inspired by the learning experience, enabling them to become autonomous learners which is the prerequisite for becoming a sovereign human being.
As well as getting all the benefits from the book, you find yourself in a learning environment that has you constantly practising and developing an array of cognitive and communication skills in small group discussions and whole class conversations.
This in turn engenders in you growing self-belief, self-esteem and social confidence, which you take back out into the world and into your relationships.
It is this mix of the essential life skills, self-knowledge and self-belief that marks out this course as unique. You are building the strongest possible foundation for the rest of your life

With its focus on you practising and becoming skilled in a range of empowering learning, communication and self-leadership skills, this 16-week learning program is especially game-changing for leaders, educators, parents, entrepreneurs, life coaches, world helpers, activists, community builders etc etc who will benefit from mastering the full set of social interaction skills and motivational qualities needed those who lead, teach or influence others.
This 16-week, 80-hour learning program completely transforms the way you experience and engage with life. It stands out from just about all other personal development courses for some key reasons:
your instructor shares the fruits of his own 30 years of self-growth — personally, professionally, psychologically and spiritually
as a rebel educator and engineer of learning he brings you not the answers, but the questions for you to find your own answers
you learn the root causes of all problems and conflict in our human world, how to prevent most of them and solve the rest
‘learning’ is a multi-layered activity of your mind and heart: you learn about crucial knowledge, you learn, learning by doing
you
the instructor is not bringing you the answers, he brings you the questions for you to find your own answers, working in collaboration with your classmates
your instructor
the learning process is a journey of guided self-inquiry, looking into how your own inner world of mind body and soul works, how the multi-layered environment of the whole web of life works,
One huge benefit bears worth mentioning here, though. My students do most of the work in my classrooms. That means they must want to do it, feel motivated to do it, and enjoy doing it with their classmates. I am the guide, the facilitator, the navigator, the learner-enabler.
It means, for all this to work, that the group must be a cohesive community, and that means all members take responsibility for their own learning and for the success of all the group’s members. That’s what I make happen. You will spend 40 hours in such a learning environment, you will see how I create a harmonious group dynamic, and you and all your classmates will be co-creators of this close-knit community.
Now you will know all about building small communities, which is an essential skill in this mad world which needs us all to remember our community roots.
It comes from the way I approach education which means I’m really just a facilitator. I don’t come to you with the answers, I come with the questions for you to find your own answers in
But just for the minute, let me share my reasons for calling this learning program A Spiritual Revolution: Mastering the Art of Being Human.
We are born as intelligent, social creatures. This is our innate human essence, our birthright. The trouble is that our schooling is unintelligent and anti-social, and then we are burdened forevermore until or unless we, in effect, take on a second education to unlearn and undo all the damage done to us before we had any defences to rebel against it.
I offer that second education, and I conceived and built A Spiritual Revolution to be a holistic learning journey for adults who learn how to educate and empower themselves. When you learn to do this, you then pass it all on kind others - to your own children, to your students, or to your fellow adults.
That is the healing of humankind, effected through healing holistic education that builds us up instead of knocking us down.
