“IMAGINATION, the great Diva
“Do you know what truly makes people happy? The right use of their imagination.

Do you know what can give you hope? Discovering your own imagination.
Reading this book you will soon realize that she, your Imagination, has been around the whole time, long since ready to take center stage. Like a great diva. The diva that used to hum in your ear whenever you were about to give up and hide in the hellhole of silence and isolation. Let her no longer hide inside the dark maze. Set her free and set yourself free.
The show is about to begin, and there are still plenty of seats available; pick one and join us.”
The book “IMAGINATION, the great Diva” is a guide to love and truth that transcends time. A truly invaluable spiritual toolbox intended for those who wish to know how to live a meaningful life, how to find a soul mate, how to become acquainted with their inner teacher and tap into infinity!

Maria Leventi, daughter of Michael, was born in 1970 in Eleusis, the city of Aeschylus, Demeter, Persephone and the Eleusinian Mysteries. She studied Medicine in the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTh), specializing in psychiatry at the 2nd University Clinic of AUTh. She attended graduate studies in Art Therapy at the Arts & Psychotherapy Center (APC), which is when she started to further explore art history and the decoding of universal archetypal symbols. At the same time, she delved into Ancient Greek literature and comparative religion.
All this research culminated in the Global Perceptiveness method, conceived in collaboration with her husband, Ioannis Karlaouzos, in 2003. In 2008 they founded the limited liability company “Global Perceptiveness” (www.sferiki.gr) where they teach the method in single-session or year-round seminars. In 2011 the method was internationally recognized at the International Conference on Psychology in Sri Lanka. At that conference Maria Leventi was awarded an honorary doctorate in Psychology for her contribution to the discipline as well as the title of Vice President of the Asia Pacific Association of Psychology.
In 2012 Maria Leventi, along with her spouse and the “Global Perceptiveness” counselors, founded the NGO “Global Perceptiveness: The Art of the New Consciousness”, aiming to propagate virtue and love in light of a broadened perceptiveness. She is a member of the Athens Medical Association, the Hellenic Psychiatric Association and SUNFO. She has two children, Chrysanthe and Michael, and two stepchildren, Elpinike and Eleana. She has chosen to live and work in Eleusis.
