    Mens sana in corpore sano

    While knowledge of a healthy way of life is of course important, Kenko, the Shape of Health, emphasizes practice above all. Because to have “a healthy mind in a healthy body,” you must care for both! Body and mind are connected, and since time is limited and balance is key, Kenko always reminded the Espers…

    Light and Shadow

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, had the difficult task of writing about consciousness when the Seven Shapes created One Daily Tale. A complicated task indeed—but as the element of Lightning, Eklea always carried a tool with her: light! If lightning flashes only briefly in the darkness, the discovery of StarDust at the end of the…

    Just like the wind

    When teaching about empathy and compassion, Gurumin, as the Element of Wind, liked to use her element as an example. She loved watching the clouds in the sky, gently moved and reshaped by the breeze. Their calmness reminded her that empathy requires careful listening.When we are caught in the flow of our lives, we sometimes…

    Never stop learning

    Esperia had become a world of harmony. Vati reflected on how it had been chaos and war only a few hundred years ago
 before the discovery of StarDust, the Shadow within every Esper, and the birth of Atma, the Shape of Balance. With the Great Library at the heart of Esperia, the Seven Shapes had…

    Of Balance and Waves

    When Atma was born, she brought with her a new concept. Balance in everything is like a wave: the cycle of day and night, the turning of the seasons, even life and death. There were natural rhythms all around Esperia, and when one looked more closely, they all seemed like waves. Sound, light, the flow…

    Back to the Future

    On Esperia, the presence of Shala, the Shape of Time, was essential to help the Espers grasp the notions of future, past, and present. Why? Because any past or future action is nothing more than an action that has once been done in the present! And thus, it was difficult for the Espers to fully…

    On Esperia, Faya—the Shape of Willpower and the Element of Fire—created a special lesson designed to inspire every Esper and remind them of their true worth.It was called “Believe in Yourself.” The first point is simple: believe. Believe in what? That you can always grow, and that every experience can become a chance to learn,…

    Mental Food

    Just as our nutrition shapes our health, what we feed our minds also has a powerful influence on who we become. Today, with constant access to an almost infinite stream of information through mobile phones, what we choose to consume becomes the food that nourishes—or weakens—our thoughts. As always, knowing this is one thing. Acting…

    Viewpoint

    Eklea loved challenging the young Espers with small mental games. “Think about how you see the world. Look around you, and try to imagine viewing it through the eyes of your best friend sitting beside you, the tree in Esperia’s garden nearby, or even one of the countless stars shining in our night sky!” “By…
