Corey deVos

Corey is the editor, designer, writer, and producer of IntegralLife.com. He is also a freelance writer, integral consultant, weekend woodworker, and full time father. Corey has been working with Integral Life and Ken Wilber since 2003, and is responsible for most of the writing, image, and media production you find on IntegralLife.com.

In recent years Corey has also become a prominent host of several content series, including The Ken Show with Ken Wilber, Witt and Wisdom with Dr. Keith Witt, and Integral Justice Warrior with Mark Fischler.

Corey lives in Longmont, Colorado with his wife Angie and daughter Evelyn.

I produce our ongoing content, I find all those just-right images that capture the essence of the practices, perspectives, and presentations we publish. I also edit our audio interviews from their raw state into what you hear on the site. I then wrap some pretty-but-maybe-sometimes-too-lyrical words around the whole ordeal. Then I deliver the week's offerings to your inbox, all in hopes that all of this has somehow made your day just a little bit brighter.

I also built the new IntegralLife.com website, and manage the the site technology behind the scenes.

Now you know who to blame.

The Art of Being Unique (But Not Special)

The Art of Being Unique (But Not Special)

Corey deVos   October 31, 2017  
Today Jeff and Corey take a look at a paradoxical move in vertical development: where we embrace our own radical uniqueness and express it in relation to other beings who are also utterly unique. It’s a new and more vivid integration of the individual and collective realms of reality, and out of it emerges a possibility for a more fruitful, happy and fulfilling life. Once again we are helped out by Sarah Silverman!

Normal Crazy vs. Extra Crazy: Disarming Your Defensive States

Corey deVos   October 7, 2017  
When we feel safe, we are usually comfortably social with ourselves and others. When we feel threatened, our nervous systems (our adaptive unconscious, our Shadow selves) can generate defensive states to protect us. These states amplify or numb emotions, distort perspectives, pump out destructive impulses, and diminish self-reflection and empathy. Watch as Dr. Keith Witt offers some valuable guidance to help you disarm these defensive states whenever they arise for you.
