en + theos. Two little Greek words. Put ‘em together and you’ve got enthusiasm—or “God within”—the secret sauce to creating an extraordinary life while making a difference in the world.

Our mission is simple.

We want to change the world. How? Well, we think it’s pretty straightforward.
We’ve each gotta be the change we want to see. Helping you do that is what we’re all about.

The academy for optimal living.

Isn't a bit odd that we went from science to math to history but somehow missed the class on how to live? We thought so, too. So, we created a virtual Academy where we help world-class teachers share their wisdom on Optimal Living—covering everything from from Health & Nutrition, Positive Psychology and Creativity to Relationships & Sexuality, Mindfulness, and Conscious Business.

Featured Courses:
› Your Best Life in the Arts
› Super Immunity
› Making It Happen

More wisdom in less time.

You're busy and books are heavy. So, we created PhilosophersNotes where we distill the "Big Ideas" from the greatest Optimal Living classics into fun, smart, inspiring and super practical 6-page PDFs and 20-minute MP3s—giving you More Wisdom in Less Time. From old-school philosophy and spirituality to modern-day positive psychology, creativity, nutrition and abundance classics, we help you tap into the wisdom that matters.


Big Ideas on optimal living.

Long blog posts with inspiring wisdom are great. But, wouldn’t it be cool to tap into inspiring and empowering wisdom in quick little bursts? We thought so, too. Enter: Big Ideas on Optimal Living. We’ve asked some of our favorite teachers to share some of their favorite Big Ideas in less than 250 words. Here they are!
