Deepak Chopra and Intent

This Sunday, the interview I did with Oprah will premiere on Super Soul Sunday (April 29th at 11am ET/10am CT on OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network) followed by a repeat of my Lifeclass Tour: Spiritual Solutions filmed earlier at Radio City Music Hall.  It was several months ago that I received a text on my blackberry from Oprah with a short…

America, like every other nation, speaks peace and makes war. In its role as policeman for the world – a role performed spottily, with many arbitrary choices about when to fight – this country cherishes a reputation for peace-keeping. It hurts and baffles Americans to discover, as it did in the Bush era, how hated…

            The first part of this post, which needs to be read first, set down goals for making your own wellness program. No one can do this but you, and at the same time, you need to be complete in your approach, which involves looking at both success and failure as the journey unfolds. <!–…

By Deepak Chopra, MD, FACP & Dr. Rudolph E. Tanzi, Ph.D., Joseph P. and Rose F. Kennedy, Professor of Neurology, Harvard Medical School Director, Genetics and Aging at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH). Like a personal computer, science needs a Recycle Bin for ides that didn’t work out as planned. In this bin would go commuter…

Once a self-help term becomes shopworn, it needs to be refreshed. I think this is true of terms like faith, compassion, unconditional love, and gratitude. Let me address the last one.  How is gratitude a useful expression of spirituality?  No one argues that it makes others feel good if you are grateful, but is that…
