The Uncommon Path reveals what is commonly referred 
to as conscious self-development can be nothing more 
than a kaleidoscope of metaphysical distractions, 
orchestrated by concealed conditioning to keep 
us well clear of clarity and authenticity.

Download Mick Quinn in an
interview with Doc Barham and
Michael Richardson on the
potential hidden in our Shadow
This # 1 bestselling book is about realizing a way of life that is far more

durable, fulfilling and self-sustaining than just gaining worldly success.

The Uncommon Path  is about opening your mind and heart to other

possibilities, those that are far greater and far more challenging than

building 'the dream life' - yet are just as attainable and sustainable as

the pictures and words that others have placed in your mind.

--H.B. Augustine, about our work in Guatemala: "What you and Mick 
 are doing is a perfect example for what the Integral community itself 
 now needs to accept, embrace, and enact: taking these celestial ideas 
 and venturing into the flames of samsara, getting one's hands dirty, 
 embracing the suffering and actually connecting with people who 
 experience it far more than we can even imagine - as opposed to just 
 sitting back and theorizing about AQAL."
1.35 minutes: Two ways to joy
THE UNCOMMON PATH combines core aspects of Wilber's Integral Theory,

the simplicity of Genpo Merzel's  Big Mind Process, the gentleness of Eckhart

Tolle's wisdom, the clarity of Andrew Cohen's teachings of Evolutionary

Enlightenment, and evolved exercises based on the lifework of Coaching

founder, Thomas J. Leonard. The goal is to help you identify and transcend

 concealed conditioning on the path of awakening authentic joy.

6.24 minutes: Dealing with friends who are different levels of development
THE UNCOMMON PATH is for readers who yearn for purpose and freedom,

along. It is also for those who are looking for wholesome and lasting 
changes in the basis, purpose, and expressions of their relationships.
