I interview Chuck McGee III. As a Type 1 Diabetic & Traumatic Brain Injury survivor, Chuck has faced many personal health challenges. For years he searched for practical & impactful ways to improve his health and reduce his symptoms. Six years ago, he was introduced to the Wim Hof Method. After feeling the benefits and massive shift this brought into his life, he switched professions & dedicated his life to helping others to discover their own power to help themselves. For the past six years he has traveled worldwide studying different breathwork modalities. After studying for weeks under Wim Hof himself, Chuck was the first American Instructor to help lead the Wim Hof winter expeditions in Poland. For the past three years Chuck has been working in healthcare settings, applying foundational functional breath coupled with the WHM to help reduce chronic pain, anxiety & depression. Because everyone's physiology is different, Chuck knows there is no cookie cutter approach to optimal health. He believes, however, that functional breathing can positively impact everyone. Along with being a Wim Hof Method instructor, he is also a certified instructor in the Oxygen Advantage & XPT Performance. Topics discussed include: • Chuck's childhood trauma which triggered adult anger • How Chuck discovered the Wim Hof Method while working as a bartender • How breathwork impacted Chuck's emotional addiction to anger • Chuck's diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes at 33 years old • How Chuck uses his autoimmune disease / brain injury as motivation to live a bitter life • Chuck's experience of diabetic induced depression and how he learned about the “function” of depression • Chuck's healing experience with Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) • How to move out of “victim consciousness” • How to define success for yourself • How the Wim Hof Method effected Chuck: emotionally, physically, & spiritually • The Science behind Wim Hof's method • How Chuck learned the true meaning of surrender through ice baths & the benefits of cold exposure • The what/why/and how of the Buteyko breathing technique • The importance of nasal breathing & nitric oxide • The what/why/and how of Oxygen advantage breathwork • The perils of mouth breathing • The importance of having co2 in the body and how to increase your co2 threshold • How breathwork is an anti-inflammatory healing practice for autoimmune disorders • The impact of breathwork & cold exposure on traumatic brain injuries (TBI's) Mentioned People / Books / Resources: Wim Hof Breathwork: https://www.wimhofmethod.com/ Buteyko Breathwork: https://buteykoclinic.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdPpV32cM0I Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor: https://www.amazon.com/Breath-New-Science-Lost-Art/dp/0735213615/ref=pd_lpo_2?pd_rd_i=0735213615&psc=1 James Nestor: https://www.mrjamesnestor.com/ Practical guide to breathwork by Jesse Coomer: https://www.amazon.com/Practical-Guide-Breathwork-Remedy-Condition/dp/0578758016 ACT made Simple by Russ Harris: https://www.amazon.com/ACT-Made-Simple-Easy-Read/dp/1684033012#:~:text=The%20second%20edition%20of%20ACT,Essential%20reading%20for%20all%20therapists.%E2%80%9D Tao de Ching: https://www.amazon.com/Tao-Te-Ching-Laozi/dp/1535229330 The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff: https://www.amazon.com/Tao-Pooh-Winnie-Pooh/dp/0525244581 Limitless by Jim Kwik: https://www.amazon.com/Limitless-Upgrade-Anything-Faster-Exceptional/dp/1401958230/ref=sr_1_1?gclid=Cj0KCQjw-daUBhCIARIsALbkjSYmXn0LnjymIJ6QrQrB4H4nXnBMg1XTcgfJgyWX2knoJz2n7zFOyf8aAn9xEALw_wcB&hvadid=408356272041&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9028819&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=b&hvrand=11562072228299232037&hvtargid=kwd-865858154558&hydadcr=24657_9648987&keywords=limitless+jim+kwik&qid=1654053426&sr=8-1 Connect!

This week, two owls explain Taoism to a rabbit. The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff (1982) vs The Dispossessed: An Ambiguous Utopia by Ursula K. Le Guin (1974).

He holds a master's of public administration from Harvard University in addition to two degrees from Florida International University.Quotes From This Episode"Very few leaders either have the capacity or the comfort level to speak about race, gender equality, and inequality.""People who lead diversity, equity, or inclusion offices can help their leadership feel comfortable with what's going on and help design a strategy.""I'm a first-generation immigrant. I came to the United States as a child and grew up in the United States. And I talk a lot about hyphen identities...you make your own space, which is your hyphen, and then you have people meet you at your hyphen and stop trying to meet them in these categories your put in.

Today, Jennie builds on an earlier address  - "The Tao of Pooh" - the title of a book by Benjamin Hoff, a western Taoist and the source of Jennie's inspiration today. Hoff's book was inspired by AA Milne's "Winnie the Pooh" - written in the 1920's - when Milne had returned from the trench warfare of WW1 suffering from what we would now call Post Traumatic Stress Disorder  - or PTSD. The story is an allegory used by Milne to explain his  - at times - errant, PTSD-induced behaviour to his son. The characters are different kinds of people or  - more particularly, different aspects of ourselves. Piglet is paranoia; Eeyore is depression. Tigger is impulsivity. Rabbit is perfection-caused aggression. Owl is memory-loss and Kanga represents over-protection. Jennie's point is that these characters are all child-friendly representations of PTSD but are also characteristics to be found within each and every one of us. Jennie follows with some of Hoff's Taoist wisdoms and uses AA Milne's song "Coddleston Pie" to explain why we so often ignore the reality of things as they are. Everything has its own place and function - even mud - even us! Listen on!

In today's episode, Erica shares some synchronicities involving sessions she did recently and the book "The Tao of Pooh," by Benjamin Hoff.  She also talks about how our individual vibrations are important when it comes to giving back to the earth and when it comes to healing the whole.  Download The Golden Key audio or e-book at GoldenKey.Gift with the Code: POSITIVEHEAD Follow Brandon on the Clubhouse app to be notified when he goes live: www.joinclubhouse.com/@0ptimystic  Care to play a game with the youniverse? positivehead.com/youniverse Text Brandon to receive regular golden nuggets of wisdom at 310.564.0750

Winnie The Pooh deed me meteen denken aan het boek ‘The Tao of Pooh' van Benjamin Hoff. Dat legt de basisprincipes van het filosofische taoïsme uit aan de hand van de gele beer. Wiskundige en filosoof Jean Paul Van Bendegem was dan ook opvallend enthousiast om aan deze aflevering mee te werken. “Dat boekje moet ergens in mijn bibliotheek staan dus ben ik naarstig aan het zoeken waar precies, een hele onderneming.” Spoiler: het is hem gelukt. En verder hebben we ook gebabbeld over fascisme, epileren en zijn lidmaatschap van The Sherlock Holmes Society of London. Allemaal dankzij die malle ouwe beer!

Taylor took his last drink June 7, 2019. With just over 13 months away from alcohol (at the time of recording) this is his story of living alcohol free (AF).   Odette’s weekly installment of: Finding the Better You…..   WAIT WAIT! It’s Paul’s 6 year Sober-versary! So instead we bring you Paul’s 6 big insights since his handing off the podcast to Odette. People are struggling right now due to Covid, but let’s not label this as a problem. Let’s go within and have some spiritual growth. Turn off the news. The ego always sets its own trap. Pets are the reason the human race hasn’t imploded yet. He has gained empathy. It’s never too late to accomplish a goal. Bonus insight: Paul’s parents are RAD!   [19:08] Paul introduces Taylor.   Taylor is 30 years old and lives in Thornton, Colorado with his two dogs, Harley and Rooster. While he’s lived in many places over the years, he grew up in Sacramento, California and now is in Colorado. He loves walking his dogs, record and write music, rock climbing, mountain biking, photography, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, wakeboarding, video editing and D&D. He likes to try all the hobbies now.   [23:54] Can you give listeners some background on your drinking?   Taylor said he started exploring alcohol around age 14. He wanted to see what alcohol was all about. He didn’t really touch alcohol again until he was about 16, mostly in High School he smoked weed. However, alcohol did allow him to fit in. His father and stepmother caught him smoking weed in college and made the decision to send him to live with his mother. This started his “victims’ story” because he wasn’t allowed to smoke weed anymore, so he was “forced to drink alcohol”. He saw his career grow however by quitting smoking weed, but there was alcohol ever present.   At 26 he found himself trying to moderate alcohol. Just before he deployed to Afghanistan, he thought to stop drinking a few days before, and he found himself in withdrawals. After not drinking while overseas, he ordered a drink on the plane home. Being home he was again trying to moderate.   [33:53] Tell me about going back to drinking after returning from Afghanistan?   Taylor said that he understood that he had seen the “other side of life” and you can never really go back. Alcohol just isn’t the same and he knew he was doomed. After his girlfriend left, was his rock bottom moment.   [42:19] Walk me through those first 30 days?   Taylor said he fully dove into recovery: “I sober like I drank”. When his father left, he kept going to therapy and AA. His pink cloud lasted 3 months and the energies to stay sober were stronger than his desire to drink. He found a lot of humility and got a sponsor and started working the steps.   [47:09] Can you share with listeners the difference between your 29th and your 30th birthdays?   Taylor said on his 29th birthday was in his first 30 days of sobriety. He sat at home and he didn’t have anything to do or anyone to hang out with. He called a newfound AA friend and he came over and they watched TV together. His 30th birthday he had 20 people show up to his birthday, from all parts of his life. He was humbled in that moment of the work that he had done to be the authentic Taylor.   [50:44] Do you still get cravings?   Taylor said yes. His alter drinking ego is named Gregory and he’s no longer the enemy of Taylor. Gregory still tries to get him to drinking, but he can have the conversation with Gregory about why they aren’t going to drink. Taylor treats Gregory like a sick child, with care and compassion. Cravings are now fleeting thoughts.    [57:47] Rapid Fire Round    What is your favorite ice cream flavor?   Peanut butter and banana with candied bacon milkshake   What would you say to your younger self?   Slow down, be gentle, be kind.   What are some of your favorite resources in recovery?   People, AA, The Calm App, Nature, Café RE, a picture of a dog. Books: Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn The Tao of Pooh & The Te of Piglet by Benjamin Hoff   What parting piece of guidance can you give listeners who are thinking about ditching the booze?   To be kind to yourself today and do the next kind thing.   You may have to say adios to booze...    If you have driven to another state to buy more alcohol because the stores in your state are closed.   Odette’s final thoughts this week:   Congratulations Paul. You are loved, supported and you are worth it.     Affiliate Link for Endourage: For 10% off your first CBD order with Endourage visit this link and use the promo code elevator at checkout.    Affiliate Link for Amazon: Shop via Amazon using this link.   Upcoming events, retreats and courses: Recovery Elevator’s first ever REgionals!

LustigThe Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff"There is a simple realization from which all personal improvement and growth emerges. This is the realization that we, individually, are responsible for everything in our lives, no matter what the external circumstances. We don't always control what happens to us. But we always control how we interpret what happens to us, as well as how we respond." -Mark MansonFor more information, resources, and detailed show notes check out my website!

Today we Today we will be talking about what wu-Wei is and how it can improve your life. Wu Wei describes authenticity, it is a reminder to align with the present and accept the flow and course of nature.“When we learn to work with our own Inner Nature, and with the natural laws operating around us, we reach the level of Wu Wei. Then we work with the natural order of things and operate on the principle of minimal effort. Since the natural world follows that principle, it does not make mistakes. Mistakes are made–or imagined–by man, the creature with the overloaded Brain who separates himself from the supporting network of natural laws by interfering and trying too hard.” – Benjamin Hoff, The Tao of PoohTaoism emphasizes living in harmony with the Tao (a word for ‘way' or ‘route').This is known as ‘Wu Wei' and it is the alignment with the rhythms of the elements both within and outside our bodies. It is a kind of ebb and flow, an effortless surrender to the natural cycles of the world.It is difficult to define exactly what Tao is. Those who try do not recognize that Tao exists beyond the constraints of language. It is something that one can only feel through intuition, not characterized or defined.However, with acknowledgement of the limitations of language, the definition of Tao can be said to be the principle underlying the natural order of the universe.It is the ‘ultimate energy of the universe' and ‘the drift of nature'.These are the principles and approach of the Tao of Horsemanship.

Today's service and address was conducted by Jennie Dyster, our President and was recorded in the Unitarian Meeting House in Adelaide on Sunday, 9th February, 2020. In her Address "Bare (or is it "Bear"?) Necessities", Jennie draws inspiration from several of Benjamin Hoff's books - especially "The Te of Piglet" and "Poo Way" for Buddhist wisdoms in managing human conflict. Other highlights of this service include some wonderful and spontaneous insights from one of our youngest members in response to today's "Story for All Ages". Our pianist, Margaret Lambert concludes today's service with a memorable performance of Sergei Rachmaninoff's soulfully romantic "18th Variation on The Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" (arr. Hermene W Eichhorn). Listen on!

"Things in their original simplicity contain their own natural power, power that is easily spoiled and lost when that simplicity is changed." —Benjamin Hoff, author of The Tao of Pooh ~Below is a list of the life lessons shared on today's podcast episode. For detailed conversation about each point, be sure to listen to the audio version as Shannon elaborates on each point.  ~Correction 12/11/2018: The copyright of The Tao of Pooh is 1982. The copyright of The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is 1926. ~The Simple Sophisticate, episode #237 ~Subscribe to The Simple Sophisticate: iTunes | Stitcher | iHeartRadio | YouTube | Spotify The written character P’u (pronounced Pooh) is defined as natural, simple, plain, honest. This basic Taoist principle not only applies to things, but to people too 1.Find what you can uniquely give the world "The Way of Self-Reliance  begins with recognizing who we are. Each of us has something special hidden inside somewhere. But until we recognize that it’s there, what can we do but splash around, treading water? The first thing we need to do is recognize and trust our own Inner Nature, and not lose sight of it." P. 65 2.Life can be truly fun, no matter what your age “When you discard arrogance, complexity, and a few other things that get in the way, sooner or later you discover that simple, childlike and mysterious secret known to those of the Uncarved Life: Life is Fun.” Cleverness has its limitations. It’s mechanical judgments and clever remarks tend to prove inaccurate with passing time, because it doesn’t look very deeply into things to begin with. P37 3. Just be yourself, embrace your awesome "When you know and respect your inner nature, you know where you belong." "Cottleston Pie - a way of saying inner nature. No two people are the same either. Everything has its own inner nature. Unlike other forms of life, though, people are easily led away from what’s right for them, because people have brain and the brain can be fooled. But many people do not look at it or listen to it, and consequently do not understand themselves very much. Having little understanding of themselves, they have little respect for themselves, and are therefore easily influenced by others. "P. 57 4. The change you want does not exist outside of yourself "Real progress involves growing and developing, which involves changing inside." 5. Be patient on your journey "No matter how useful we may be, sometimes it takes us a while to recognize our own value." p. 117  6. Being an optimist will serve you well "The play-it-safe pessimists of the world never accomplish much of anything, because they don’t look clearly and objectively at situations, they don’t recognize or believe their own abilities, and they won’t stretch those abilities to overcome even the smallest amount of risk." P. 122 "Wisdom, Happiness, and Courage are not waiting somewhere out beyond sight at the end of a straight line; they are part of a continuous cycle that begins right here . . . it's sometimes referred to as the Snowball Effect, which can remind you of the time you pushed that little ball of snow along, and it got bigger and bigger until it got so big you couldn't stop it . . . now the principle can work negatively or positively. It can promote cynicism as easily as it can encourage hope . . . the important thing is to make it work for yourself and for the benefit of others."  7. Discover the Power and Opportunity for Rejuvenation with Time Spent with Yourself "Music is the space between the notes - emptiness cleans out the messy mind and charges up the batteries of spiritual energies - Loneliness actually begins when all the spaces are full and the tv gets turned on to make it go away. The power of a clear mind is beyond description." ~SIMILAR POSTS/EPISODES from the ARCHIVES YOU MIGHT ENJOY: ~How to Live Alone Well, episode #33 ~15 Everyday Habits to Live a Life of Contentment, episode #93 ~Authenticity: The Courage to Be Yourself, episode #6 ~TSLL's New Book - Living The Simply Luxurious Life: Making Your Everydays Extraordinary and Becoming Your Best Self (released November 13, 2018) ~Learn more about TSLL's Weekly Newsletter The Simple Sophisticate podcast, Season 5 Schedule Mondays - December 17, 24, 31 - Listen to three of the post popular/downloaded posts of Season 1 & 2 A brand new episode will air TUESDAY January 1st!

Written in 1982 by Benjamin Hoff, "The Tao of Pooh" gives an overview of the ancient philosophy of Taoism. The book is accessible and full of wisdom, but perhaps its most useful element is how it sheds light on the concerning trends in the modern education system. Intellectual curiosity and the search for meaning seem to be taking a backseat to practicality and career readiness.
