The dictionary definition of essence is: “that which makes a thing what it is; like inward nature.”
The Core Essence Self is the central, authentic identity. It is the seed of divinity within each of us.
Waking up is a return to the Self, a discovery, connection, and nourishing of that Core Essence Self. Staying awake is nourishing that connection on an ongoing basis.
