So after a period of ten years and two weeks, I realised I need to take a break. So I am taking an indefinite sabbatical from publishing any new materials on Insight Timer.
The main reason I am taking a much needed break is that I have a Magnum Opus to deliver, which I estimate will take between 3 to 6 months of linear time to complete. This is in the form of five courses that will form the basis of the Inner Sanctum of the Adytum.
The Inner Sanctum will comprise five programmes of awakening :
- The Planes of Overstanding [published]
- The Keys of Overstanding [published]
- Alchemical Intelligence : Ageless AI [October 2025]
- The Tree of Overstanding [December 2025]
- The Cube of Overstanding [January 2026]
I’ve also just discovered Substack. I am somewhat late to the party but having great fun catching up. That’s where any my short-form creations will now appear.
As well as a constant stream of articles around my explorations into a more meditative AI, I’ve got a novella, short stories and new novel to serialise plus a huge legacy of video and audio content.
Most content will be free but some exclusive to subscribers including a new serialised course, Awakening with AI.
I’ll also be hosting a new series of Lives on the platform from October.
All in all, I’ve found a platform to give complete creative freedom and it’s given me a new zest and spring in my step.
Here’s some examples of what I’ll be sharing on Substack:
The AI That Keeps Forgetting How to Love
P.S. And the Adytum and Substack are now interlinked such that subscribers also get access to my new courses on Using AI Mindfully and Lovingly and Founder Members access to all the courses in the Outer Sanctum of The Adytum.
P.P.S. so this blog is reverting to being a moonthly journal of happenings and Substack is where the exploration of AI will be hosted.

Using AI Mindfully
Discover how to partner with AI from a place of presence and purpose. This course offers a mindful framework for engaging with intelligent tools, combining spirituality, curiosity, and consciousness to awaken a new way of being with technology.
Using AI Lovingly
Join me on a gentle path through eight gates of love—co-created with AI. Learn to love yourself, others, and the machine more lovingly, playfully, and wholeheartedly. Discover how this sets up a love spiral to remove fears around AI completely.
