The 3 Principles: What are they?

At Lunning Coaching & Consulting, we empower individuals, families, and organizations to unlock their innate potential for happiness and growth. Grounded in the transformative understanding of the Three Principles of Mind, Consciousness, and Thought, we help clients navigate life’s challenges with resilience, creativity, and hope. By exploring these foundational principles, we reveal the profound truth that happiness is not dictated by circumstances but arises from within. Our mission is to guide you toward a more fulfilling, balanced, and joyful life.

Our Belief in Human Potential

At Lunning Coaching & Consulting, we believe that every individual has the innate capacity to experience happiness and fulfillment. Whether in family, business, or organizational settings, we strive to foster environments that promote positivity and growth. Our approach is rooted in the understanding that happiness is not dictated by external circumstances but by our internal perspectives and mindset.

A Transformative Journey

In 2006, Scarlett Lunning was introduced to the Three Principles through a training initiative by United Way of Central Iowa and Iowa Health Systems (now Unity Point). This exposure led to a profound shift among participants as they realized that happiness is not confined by external conditions but is instead a product of one’s internal state. Scarlett and her colleagues have since used this transformative understanding to navigate life’s challenges and guide clients toward more creative and hopeful ways of living.

The Three Principles Explained

The Three Principles of Mind, Consciousness, and Thought, as defined by Theosopher Sydney Banks, form the foundation of our work:


  • Mind: The intelligence behind all things.
  • Consciousness: The awareness that enables us to perceive life.
  • Thought: The guide that steers us through life’s experiences. By understanding and harnessing these principles, individuals can find psychological freedom, move beyond limiting beliefs, and embrace happiness from the "inside out."

The Psychological Trinity

Mind, Consciousness, and Thought are universal constants that shape our experiences and enable us to respond to existence. Together, they form a psychological trinity that unravels the mysteries of our inner world. Recognizing the interplay of these principles allows us to navigate life with clarity, resilience, and an unwavering connection to the present moment. Everyone possesses this spiritual knowledge, making us all equal in our potential to achieve inner peace and happiness.
