    You Don't Have to Have Issues

    · Alive and Free

    When something happens, there doesn’t always have to be an issue with it. You can let go of the response and control it. We’ll talk about it more today. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    I was leading myself to my own grave because of some teachings that I had likely misinterpreted. (12:15) A lot of people would rather be right and miserable and perpetuate the misery, than dissipate the reactions. (19:35) I want to teach people the skills of having a choice in how they feel. (20:00) I thought I was going to break everything in what I knew, or sensed, was the right way forward. (31:00)

  • I Am... Except When I'm Not

    I Am... Except When I'm Not

    · Alive and Free

    We have often had people who have a single belief of who and what they are. It’s not that they’re wrong for that, it that they had never tried to challenge it before. People who were “superior” to them had given diagnosis and those were taken to heart. Today we’ll talk about it more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    A lot of people we encounter had their mom, their teacher, their mentor tell them something and that’s never been challenged. (13:10) Internally, I don’t want to put the keys in the lock that are almost a fit, but to a perfect fit. I’d rather make them on the inside. (19:20) Medical doctors aren’t always right and I think they would appreciate if we said; I don’t think that’s accurate and here’s why. And together you could figure out a solution. (30:30) Trauma is not a thing and if me saying that is upsetting, then maybe its an invitation to set down all that. (39:15)

    Divine in the Details

    · Alive and Free

    Today, we’re going to take a pretty deep dive into some religious things. Growing up in the mormon church, I had some things indoctrinated in me that were causing me disease. We’ll talk about it more in todays episode. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    Your body is what qualifies you to be alive and when you understand what a magnificent gift it is, t can lead you out of all the things that you’re struggling with. (29:45) I wanted to know what did all these, terms really mean in the context that they were given. (44:25) I started getting these waves of just feeling good to be in my body and this vibrant life inside my limbs. (48:10) I want people to be able to partake of the joy and happiness and well being that their bodies can create. (54:50)

  • Win the War Within

    Win the War Within

    · Alive and Free

    The main goal is to win the war within you. Not just to beat the symptoms, but the full battle that is causing tensions and stresses in your body. Today, we’re going to talk about it more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    The body has some way of remembering how it’s reacted in a situation before. (10:10) You are the hardest person you will ever coach. Because you have the same blind spots as the person that you’re coaching. (17:00) We are striving for permanence in an impermanent universe. (20:30) It’s not psychology, but physiology with a psychological impact. (32:45)

  • Description vs Prescription

    Description vs Prescription

    · Alive and Free

    Description; “I feel happy”. Prescription; “I’m doing all of these things so I should be feeling happiness”. Don’t let the prescriptions and “shoulds” in life, run over the descriptions, and the present moment. Today, we’ll talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    In a list, you’ll be given prescriptions, not what will become good, natural byproducts of your living experience. (14:30) “Where am I at, where am I headed, and what do I need to shift in order to move in that direction?” (17:00) Take a step back and think, what if everything will just naturally happen, if I just focus on what’s important right now? (17:50) Are you actually satisfied with the direction you’re moving, are you satisfied with the pace that you’re moving at? (20:25)

  • F1 Love

    F1 Love

    · Alive and Free

    After the 2024 Miami GP, Lando Norris gains his first win and declares his love to everybody. Now, after a grueling two hour race, he probably felt relieved and wasn’t actually feeling “love”. Today, we’re going to talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    In that moment, was he really feeling love? (10:15) Feelings of love and kindness are a direct result of the state that the body is in, in any given moment. (14:20) Like I’ve been saying for a long time, your thoughts and emotions are a byproduct of the body. (20:00) There is a big difference between your senses, and what you make of your senses. (28:20)

  • To the Wives...

    To the Wives... "It's not you, it's me."

    · Alive and Free

    This one’s for the women. A man’s “addiction” to pornography doesn’t mean that there is something wrong with you or that you need to change. It is just the way that his body has found to cope with his discomfort. We’re going to talk about this more today. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    Because the “addiction” is no longer sexual, we look at; what are they coping with? (15:50) Depression, shame, and guilt are all mechanisms that are engaged in order to solve an ongoing problem. (17:25) It’s a chasing of a sensation all because, the person is unconscious of the way that they have built discomfort into their lifestyle. (25:35) Women, there is nothing wrong with you. And if the guy is wanting to change, that is evidence that he cares and that you are enough. (36:20)

  • Get Good Help

    Get Good Help

    · Alive and Free

    If you’re going to get help with something, at least get good help. Ruminating on the problem won’t solve it, so find someone or something that looks at the source, not the symptom. We’ll talk about this more today. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    Do you really want validation on your trauma? (5:20) If you don’t want things to continue down their current path, validation will not get you to another place. (7:20) When bad help becomes the main source, it causes rumination on the symptoms, and not on the causes. (16:50) If you’re going to get help, then get good help. (:)

  • Bad Therapy by Abigail Shrier

    Bad Therapy by Abigail Shrier

    · Alive and Free

    Therapy is not really as useful as it seems. In reality, therapy gets you to just ruminate on thoughts and situations that are no longer useful to you. Instead of spending time pouting about it, learn from it and move on. Today, we’re going to talk about that more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    When going to some form of entertainment, the emotional controls are almost willfully set aside for the enjoyment of another story. (6:05) No doubt, teenagers all over the planet have these hormonal things that show up, and have situations that they have emotions about. But it’s being blown out of proportion to where everybody is being taught, everybody will have emotions that are too big for them and these tools are needed. Instead of; there might be an emotion from time to time, no big deal. (10:40) There becomes such a focus on the problem that it becomes overwhelming and it can seem like there’s no hope. (27:30) Don’t feel bad if the tools that have been given to you aren’t as effective as some other ones out there could be. (43:50)

  • Money and Monsters

    Money and Monsters

    · Alive and Free

    Money isn’t the source of happiness and problems in life. It might just be some warning lights on your dashboard of life. Today, we’ll talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    You’re thinking of this creeping up debt as a problem, when all that’s happened in the past is that a new solution to the problem has been found. (3:10) The money in your wallet might be a monster. (8:30) Life is the greatest give that you can get. (20:50)

  • Evolutionary Biology, Science, and Myth

    Evolutionary Biology, Science, and Myth

    · Alive and Free

    Biology, evolution, science, and religions are all great and can be useful tools in life. But they shouldn’t interfere with your experience. We live in the present, the now. Not 100, not 500, not 5000 years ago. Today we’re going to talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    There isn’t a bodiless it out there, like god, that is saying; “this is the case and you must accept it”. But because it’s in a book, people accept it. (9:05) Just because you can connect all the dot’s on the paper, doesn’t mean that you actually understand the paper. (17:20) It’s not that science is bad. But in the end, it’s not needed to live a powerful life. The effort to try and understand the distant past, has prevented people from making use of the present, in order to have a powerful experience in your life. (33:35)

  • F.A.I.R.O's

    F.A.I.R.O's

    · Alive and Free

    FAIRO is an acronym for “false ah-ha’s impersonating real ones”. Meaning that when an ah-ha moment comes up, no time is wasted in assuming it is the answer and not just an observation. Today we’re going to talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    There’s danger in assuming that an ah-ha moment is the truth. (7:55) The ah-ha moment is the moment when you’ve conceptualized the world into an idea. (13:30) Assessing someone on a first impression isn’t the issue. Clinging to the impression is. (22:00) Stop making assumptions from ah-ha’s and start making real observations. (30:30)

  • False But Useful???

    False But Useful???

    · Alive and Free

    Today we’re going to do a little bit of a play by play of a book that I recently read. But as we talk, find what’s useful, and keep it. then toss the rest out. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    There are humans so busy suffering and chasing power, money, prestige and all the other things that they end up killing each other for it. (3:05) I was making all kinds of claims, but I found a lot of frustration in that that I wasn’t willing to admit. When something wasn’t working I’d turn it on, and judge myself more poorly because what I assumed was the truth wasn’t. (7:15) Continue to look and hear with your eyes and ears, find what’s valuable and toss the rest. (35:15) If the body is in a negative state then negative thoughts will emerge. (37:20) Don’t make the mistake of believing that thoughts are reality. They are just a part of your experience. (44:50)

  • Everyday Bliss

    Everyday Bliss

    · Alive and Free

    Everyday bliss. Just being in a space where you can enjoy running your body, from just being alive. Not having to operate from a place of constant tension. We’re going to talk about that more today. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    When talking about a life, it isn’t the big things that I’m talking about. It’s how do you open the car door, cut food, talk to your spouse, it’s all the little things. (8:10) If the nerve is already agitated to the brink of firing, then the tiniest little thing will set it off. (10:45) People don’t want control over everything, they want life to happen in a beautiful way for them, no matter what’s going on. (25:25) The inner party, is louder than the outer chaos.

  • Proprioception

    Proprioception

    · Alive and Free

    Proprioception can be often thought of how you perceive your physical situation, but it goes a lot deeper than that. It is how you perceive yourself in any situation. Proprioception is how you catch yourself in the act of living. We’re going to talk about this in depth today. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    The prediction is made first, and only if the prediction is wrong, is more energy spent trying to figure out what’s going on. (6:00) We end up limiting our future by never challenging the predictions of the past. (11:20) The physicality of it is an attempt to sideline all of the thinking and doomsday-ing that’s happening inside. (21:45) If a reaction to something was less than it was before, and if it stays that way over the course of a day or two, the brain is now making different guesses about the idea that has been adopted.

    · Alive and Free

    AF 243 - Affirmations & Disbelief

    Sounding like opposite ends of a spectrum, affirmations and disbelief are not so different. In fact, affirmations come for the disbelief in yourself and the lack of surety. Today we’ll talk about this more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    If you don’t go through pain, then you don’t gain pain. (3:45) People are trying to find a trauma to blame their problems on, and they feel worse because they’re “just that messed up”. (8:35) I can say that I feel like there’s something missed in the beauty of life, in its natural form.

    Highlights:

    
under the assumption that in the next 20 years of life, an opinion would and should never change. (5:40) If I could connect to people on their goodness, then positive things would come out of it. But I thought goodness meant that people thought and operated the same way I do. (14:55) At different times in the world, goodness would have been defined differently. (18:00) Only when the perception change, does the reaction change. (27:05)

  • Body-Based Approach to Happiness, Health, and Well-being.

    Body-Based Approach to Happiness, Health, and Well-being.

    · Alive and Free

    So Bob is out of town, and Lee decided to do a classic rewind of an important podcast. With one of two amazing episodes; this is from September 1, 2021, called The Body-Based Approach to Happiness, Health, and Well-being.

    In our modern society, we put too much emphasis on our minds, thoughts, and feelings. The problem with this is your mind is just a fraction of your total experience of life.

    In fact, your whole body is a brain. And I can prove it. Pinch your finger right now and you’ll experience pain signals shooting up to your brain.

    Yet, when it comes to emotional baggage, trauma, addictions, and other mental ailments, we forget about the body and hyperfocus on the mind.

    If you want to permanently free yourself from these mental diseases, you have to first start in your body. Ancient cultures from all over the world knew how to do this. But we forgot how to do it in our modern world.

    In this episode, I’m revealing how a body-based approach to happiness, health, and well-being is more effective than any therapist could hope to be. Listen now.

    Show highlights include:

    The strange way laws prevent therapists from helping you as much as they could (4:09) Why therapy and counseling can only help a fraction of your mental health problems (even if it feels like they’re working) (14:33) How chanting mantras can actually make your anxiety, depression, and even schizophrenia subside (17:11) Why using your body is the single best way to eliminate all your mental and emotional baggage forever (19:32) How to teach your body freedom so you can erase mental health problems, addictions, and even chronic pain from your life (28:38)

    E-Comas

    · Alive and Free

    Comas aren’t always, lights out and unconscious for a long time. Sometimes it’s just the lack of energy from overstimulation. And in today’s world, there’s a lot of it. Today we’ll talk about it more. Have a listen.

    Highlights:

    Everything you see is changing the tension patterns in your body, and that’s going to change your perspective of things. (8:00) When you prime your system with; something’s gone wrong and we have to find the mystery, you unconsciously live your life that way. What entertains you, trains you. (13:05) When you do something unconsciously, it seems like you don’t experience it. (20:35) Instead of wondering why there’s little energy to do things, maybe, just maybe, It’s being used to process everything you see. (28:00)
