Product Description
*Originally published under the title, Ambition to Meaning In this compelling film, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer explores the spiritual journey from ambition to meaning. The powerful shift from the ego constructs we are taught early in life by parents and society—which promote an emphasis on achievement and accumulation—are shown in contrast to a life of meaning, focused on serving and giving back.
Through the intertwined stories of an overachieving businessman, a mother of two seeking her own expression in the world, and a director trying to make a name for himself, this entertaining film not only inspires, but also teaches us how to create a life of meaning and purpose.
Additional cast members are:
Michael DeLuise
Portia de Rossi
Ed Kerr
Shannon Sturges

Dr. Dyer’s books are always very easy to understand. He even provides steps that can be followed in order to make this shift. This is a companion book to the movie of the same name. I highly recommend this book.
So many people today are feeling a pull to find greater meaning in their lives. It's no longer about how much stuff you can accumulate, how many people you feel better than or how important you can make yourself feel by being busy and being stressed.
The Shift is a movie about making of a movie--Wayne Dyer's information on moving from ambition to meaning--intertwined with three intertwined stories of lives we can relate to. The director of the film whose career is disintegrating in front of his eyes, a dedicated mother of two young boys who yearns feel her own personal fulfillment and an affluent and successful couple whose identities and lives revolve around money and success. The film crew and staff of Asilomar, where the movie is filmed, also play important roles.
Each time I watch this movie I get something more out of it--it touches me on a deeper level and in an unconscious way. It keeps me on track with what I really want in live--to be the very best version of ME and to be of service to others.
For me, the DELUXE version is the best. It has the interview with Dr. Dyer that the movie is based on as well as additional questions and commentaries. And it has the music video that is fun too. I really like Ethan Lipton's songs in the movie. They are fun and funny.
If you are feeling that pull to have more meaning in your life, this movie will inspire you and maybe even give you some ideas on how you too can shift your life for the better.
Page 45: Throughout life, we're bombarded by ego messages attempting to convince us that our worth comes from observations and opinions of others. Once again, this false self proclaims as truth that something or someone external to us is responsible for our validation. Self esteem stems from internally held positive beliefs about ourselves, not the approval of others.
Page 46: Believing that who we are is defined by what other people think of us cripples the joyful spontaneity of or authentic selves. If others disapprove, and their opinion defines us, then we modify ourselves or shrink from view. The fact is that who you are has absolutely nothing to do with any thoughts or opinions that exist in anyone else in the world. Period! Wayne has done an excellent job of getting this one point across and I say Bravo Wayne! A well needed teaching and the understanding of it sets ones spirit free to fly!
For those of you who struggle with the opinions of others and are seeking approval from others, this book will set you free! It will put you on the right path to freedom that you never felt before. A must read.
This movie is not only full of great ideas and philosophies to think about, it is well-written, beautifully edited and shot, and very interesting. Instead of being a documentary/lecture kind of movie, the material is presented based on real life/real stories in current time.
We are able to see how a belief in a greater spirit/god/creator (whatever you want to name it) fits into our lives. We are able to see how we are all connected to the earth and all of creation and can include in our lives down that connection and appreciate everything around us. The story and chracters are believable and the setting is beautiful.
My favorite part was hearing that "we are born with everything we need to become fully human - we don't start out as human at conception and then become a duck or a rose bush - we become human. In that light we are also born with everything we need to become fully spiritual/fully connected, but we forget and lose that connection when we get over-involved with this world." This is NOT a direct quote but loosely what was said from the film....and I love the idea - it just makes sense.
Also, in the version I watched there were 2 CDs...one was the movie and one was interviews. Both were excellent and I highly recommend them.
Though I was familiar with much that was presented in this video, I found it well-made and scripted.

I really recommend this movie, we are all beginning to awaken and will have heaven on earth when we do.

As I don't currently own a multi region DVD player, did not order The Astral City, and ordered this instead.
It is filmed as though Dr Dyer was being interviewed for a documentary about "the shift", (and although he is), there is a clever juxtapose of storylines of people going through "the shift", illustrating what happens and making this very enjoyable, enlightening viewing.
The lip sync went out a few times but not sure if this was down to DVD quality or my player, but worth mentioning in case other viewers experience this.
I am looking forward to getting more of Dr Dyers DVD's.
I keep watching nearly every week and it has made a huge difference in the way I perceive my experiences thus improving my quality of life.
Trust me if you watch this you will feel the shift happening. It just makes you more calm in the way you deal with things in life. I believe that you will see certain unnecessary worries just disappear and start enjoying your life more and you are more likely to find your purpose in life.
Wayne Dyer is an amazing teacher.. I am glad I stumbled across his material. :-)
