On July 20, 1973, Bruce Lee—the martial arts icon who nearly singlehandedly transformed action cinema in the 60s and 70s—died suddenly in Hong Kong at the age of 32. His untimely death shocked the world and left behind a whirlwind of rumors, controversy, and unanswered questions. But even as speculation swirled, Lee's legend only grew as a revolutionary figure who shattered stereotypes, redefined fight choreography, and brought Eastern philosophy into Western pop culture.

Unlocking Inner Healing: The Power of Qigong and Practical Neuroscience with Sifu Boggie

Welcome to Season 13 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning podcast, where we delve into the fascinating intersection of brain science, emotional intelligence, and educational training for enhanced well-being and performance. This episode features Sifu Boggie, also known as Paul Brighton, who brings over 40 years of expertise in qigong, a discipline involving breath work and self-healing techniques. As stress and anxiety reach unprecedented levels worldwide, Sifu Boggie shares how qi-gong can help alleviate ailments like chronic pain, migraines, and even mental health issues. Join host Andrea Samadi in an enlightening discussion about the role of mindfulness and meditation in managing stress and maintaining mental peace. Sifu Boggie, introduced to martial arts at the age of 12, guides listeners through practical exercises for achieving emotional and physical balance, including breathing techniques and posture corrections that can be easily integrated into daily life. Discover how understanding and altering your energy can bring about transformational changes, fostering a stronger connection between mind and body. For today's episode #362, our next guest caught my eye as I noticed that my stress levels have reached some high numbers recently, with the data I see from my Whoop wearable device. Watch our interview here https://youtu.be/lYexvaGU8M0 For today's episode #362, we meet with Sifu Boggie, where we looked at: ✔ How Paul Brighton (Sifu Boggie) discovered this pathway from Chaos to Calm, when he was 12 years old. ✔ What classes does he teach, and how does he know how to help someone, or guide them towards improved health? ✔ How would Sifu help me with persistent neck pain? ✔ How can we learn to open our minds to learn deeper truths, that can help propel us forward? While my average daily stress has decreased by 12% over the past 6 months (Whoop measurements) with the average amount of daily stress I'm facing dropping from close to 4 hours/day to 3 hours and 25 minutes, I know I still occasionally see days where daily stress hits well over 6 hours/day. I know there's got to be something ELSE I can be doing to mitigate this stress, since I know that dis-ease in the body, leads straight to disease. It's clear that globally, we have reached unpresented times with anxiety, stress and depression. I can't be the only one who wonders what ELSE can I be doing. We know that: 1 in 5 Americans suffers from a mental illness (NIMH). Anxiety disorders are the highest reported mental health issue in the US with 42.5 million Americans claiming to suffer from this illness. (Mental Health America). Mental illnesses start showing symptoms by age 14 (National Alliance on Mental Illness), About 1 in 4 American adults suffers from a diagnosable mental disorder in a given year, and one in 10 will suffer from a depressive illness, such as major depression or bipolar disorder (Johns Hopkins). 10.7% of the world suffers from some form of mental illness. (Our World in Data). STATISTICS FROM https://www.thezebra.com/resources/research/mental-health-statistics/  While looking at my own stress one day, I received an introduction to our next guest, who will share the knowledge he has gathered over the past 40 years, where he has learned how to help others help themselves with ailments like... Anxiety, Stress, Chronic Pain, Depression, Fibromyalgia, Crohn's Disease, Migraines, ME, MS, Arthritis, poor circulation, back problems and so much more. He does this by teaching us Qi Gong (Breath work exercises) and self-healing techniques that will help you to maintain your body, mind and consciousness. Without further ado, let's meet Sifu Boggie (Paul Brighton) from the UK (where I was born) and see what he can teach us with his wisdom and knowledge from being immersed in this work, since he was 12 years old. Welcome Sifu Boggie! Thank you for coming on the podcast today! Where exactly have I reached you today? (I was born in Worthing, Sussex).  INTRO:  Sifu, I listened to some of your past podcast episodes, and I enjoyed learning through your experiences. I do want to start by going back in time to when you were age 12, and met someone who saw that you were talented, when you felt like you didn't belong. Can you start with explaining how you found this pathway to help others understand themselves better at a young age? Q1: What does your name mean and how does it tie into our podcast where we work on learning strategies to be the best versions of ourselves? Q2: I can see your talent and what makes you truly unique and I'm jumping at the chance to speak with you, to ask you questions for your perspective, but what has been your experience having a talent that takes ancient practices that can hold the secret for healing modern ailments? Can you break down WHAT exactly it is that you do in your classes, and how each class is tied to support a specific ailment of injury? Qi Class: Qigong for Health, Fitness and Well-being, what ever your ailment or injury There is a Qigong for it... Jing Class: Neigong ( Qigong Yoga) great for Stretching the body, Strengthening the tendons and releasing trauma/ PTSD/ Depression... Shen Class:  Shengong ( Qigong Meditation) lots of different variations, especially "the Island" a Daoist Meditation to heal mind,body and Spirit plus other Energy Meditation styles... Eastern Reiki Class: The Traditional Version of Reiki has Hatsurie Ho ( Japanese Qigong), Kotodama ( Japanese Mantra), and Reiju ( Empowerments) done as a Weekly Class so you build and grow the energy and Traditionally Symbols were not used. DragonDog Shaman Reiki: A particular Version of Shun Qi Shen ( Chinese Reiki) based on the Daoist Shaman practice, this has 3 Classes... Theory, Practical and Lightcode... Q2B: So if I have pain in my neck, that's persistent and always there, how would you help me to eliminate this pain in my neck? I ask, as it's been this way for me for over 20 years, and I've tried everything! Chiropractic work, massage, oils, saunas, and even hypnotherapy (which I would have to say is highly effective). What would you say to me about this persistent pain in my neck and how would YOU solve it? Q3: I know a lot of this involves the mind. I heard you say something that made me think a bit, and I wonder if you can explain how you interpret when Hong-Kong, American martial arts and actor, the late Bruce Lee said “it's like a finger pointing away to the moon” urging us to NOT concentrate on our finger, or we will miss “all that heavenly glory” and that we must NOT think, but learn to FEEL more. How does this quote tie in here? Learn to listen to our body and feel more, rather than get stuck focusing on (our finger) or whatever it is that hurts us in our body? What would you say here? Q4: So here's another quote I heard you say that I just love. I connected with it as I worked for 6 years in the motivational speaking industry and met some of the greats in this industry, right alongside those who had all risen to the top in their careers. Most that I met were open to learning NEW strategies and ideas for success, that took them to these great heights, and they didn't have to be scientifically proven, they just had to work. You mentioned a quote by Rockefeller that said “millionaires don't use astrology, billionaire do” suggesting that more successful individuals, particularly those at the highest wealth levels, may leverage astrology for strategic insights beyond simple fate beliefs. Can you explain how this quote ties into your work? Q5: Before my next question, I would love it if you could give us your take on Energy 101 and what we should all know about energy fields, and frequencies? I've mentioned this concept on a few different episodes where I talk about how we are all spiritual beings, with an intellect, living in a physical body (EP 67[i]) and that we must change our frequency to move to different levels of vibration. How would YOU explain this image and concept? Q6: Since we now can see how important energy is, in Arizona, where I live, we can find stores on reading our energy, our aura (I've done this recently) or classes on how to bend a spoon, psychokinesis and dowsing (all classes that I took the FIRST year I moved here over 24 years ago). Can you tell me what you learned from your work with Uri Geller years ago that might open our listener's eyes to different techniques for success that you have seen either yourself or others use to give them a razor's edge for success? Q7: Ok, another quote here from Nikolas Tesla “magic is science not yet understood.” I've been working hard to make the connection with neuroscience and some of those age old success principles that I saw working in the seminar industry back in the late 1990s. Our most downloaded episode is a 4-part series on Applying The Silva Method[ii] for Increased Intuition, Creativity and Focus. My favorite quote from this series is that “once we learn to use our minds to train it, it will do some astounding things for us, as you will soon see.” What kind of magic have you seen over the years with people you work with who have learned to train their mind (like Bruce Lee was so well known for?). Q8: In the Silva Method, he has this activity where we learn how to see things on the “screen of our mind.” What have you learned from your study of ancient physicists about developing our minds, or our “third eye” and why is this advanced awareness important if we want to take better control our our health and wellness, as well as our success, in the future?   Q9: This has been a lot, and I could keep asking you questions, but I wonder, “where do we begin?” I didn't know that Yin/Yang (dark/light) means Tai Chi or that Dao means “the path, or the way.” Can you highlight the best way forward for someone who notices they are off balance, like me, and how to get started on a better way forward? Q10: Have I missed anything important? Sifu, I want to thank you very much for meeting with me, to open my mind up further with your knowledge and wisdom that you have collected and implemented since you were a young boy. I'm grateful to have had this chance to speak with you. Where can people learn more about your classes and workshops?

They emphasize the importance of small moments in martial arts training, highlighting how these can create lasting impacts on students. The discussion also delves into the role of nervousness in training, suggesting that it can empower students rather than hinder them. Additionally, they examine the use of music in training environments, sharing personal experiences and preferences regarding music during martial arts practice. TAKEAWAYS Technology has significantly improved martial arts teaching. Accessibility has increased due to online resources. The role of the instructor has evolved with technology. Communication with martial arts icons is easier than ever. Martial arts training is more available to everyone today. The mystique of the instructor has diminished over time. Technology allows for better self-assessment in training. The martial arts community is more connected through technology.  We will never have another martial artist with the fame of Chuck Norris or Bruce Lee. Nervousness in students can be a sign of care and focus. Empowering students by acknowledging their feelings can enhance their experience. Music can serve as a distraction or a tool for focus in training. Understanding the emotional state of students can improve their training.

*The music in this video is copyrighted and all rights reserved to the respective copyright holders* In this outrageously entertaining episode of Y Chromes, CannCon, J.B. White, Alpha Warrior, and Cam Cooksey dive headfirst into masculine mayhem, culinary adventures, and controversial moral debates. The show kicks off with Cam's mouthwatering “Smoking with My Chromies” segment featuring cowboy burgers made with 21-day aged ground beef, habanero cheddar, homemade onion rings, and the new MVP of the meat world: beef bacon. Once Alpha finally shows up, cold plunge fresh and full of opinions, the crew pivots to the viral video of a woman getting knocked out after hitting a much larger man. The debate rages: Was it self-defense, excessive force, or just gender equality in action? The guys bring in everything from civil liability to Bruce Lee's one-inch punch and personal experience to unpack the complex social and legal implications. From fake butt implants and friendship boundaries to whether past sex work should disqualify someone from a relationship, nothing is off the table. The gang navigates cultural double standards, raunchy texts, locker-room humor, and emotional intelligence with their usual blend of brutal honesty, belly laughs, and fraternal chaos. This episode is a non-stop ride through barbecue bliss, bro-code wisdom, and the kind of unapologetic conversation that only happens when the Y Chromes get together.

Sean, Jorge, and Eric explore the shocking events of July 20, 1973, when Bruce Lee passed away at just 32 years old, right as he was on the verge of worldwide stardom.

His roles as Kato in The Green Hornet and his starring performances in The Big Boss, Fist of Fury, and Enter the Dragon broke barriers and showcased his unmatched talent. Bruce's innovative philosophy of martial arts and his vision for a more inclusive and practical fighting style led to the creation of Jeet Kune Do, a martial arts system that challenged traditional boundaries.However, on the night of his death, questions began to emerge. What truly happened during the final hours of Bruce Lee's life? Was it really an allergic reaction, or was there a darker force at play?

Theories have flourished ever since, ranging from heatstroke caused by his past surgery to remove sweat glands, to suspicions about the involvement of the Triads, the Chinese mafia, or even the American mafia seeking to control his rising Hollywood career.The boys also delve into alternative theories, including a possible family curse or mysterious martial arts rivals seeking revenge. The conspiracy surrounding Bruce Lee's death remains one of the most discussed and controversial topics in pop culture history. Was it a tragic accident, or was Bruce Lee's sudden death part of a larger, hidden story?Join the boys as they revisit the incredible life and mysterious death of Bruce Lee, unraveling the facts, speculations, and wild theories that continue to capture the imagination of fans around the world.

Parkour pioneer Sébastien Foucan can be credited for bringing Parkour to the masses. His seminal UK documentary, 'Jump London' (2003) - and its follow up, 'Jump Britain' (2005) - sparked a cultural phenomenon which would see youngsters take to the streets in wild, acrobatic, hair-raising abandon; running, climbing and leaping across their urban environment in scenes we still see on our streets today. For Sébastien, a movie career followed, with stand-out roles in action films including 'Casino Royale' (2006) and 'The Tournament' (2009). Those perceptive enough to see the inspiration behind his incredible physical abilities and derring-do would be quick to reference the work of Jackie Chan, whose stunt-filled films would prove to be one of the early catalysts for Sébastien and his friends to take to the streets of Paris, recreating what they saw in his movies. Today, Sébastien is an inspirational speaker and CEO of the Foucan Academy, teaching kids the art of movement and self-expression. His motto: "we play".On this episode - recorded live at the Gulbenkian Arts Centre in Canterbury as part of the British Film Institute's Art of Action season - Sébastien explores his love of Hong Kong action cinema (especially the films of Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee), his experiences working in Hollywood, current attitudes towards Parkour, and much more. This conversation was recorded after a screening of the 1978 Jackie Chan classic, 'Drunken Master', and is co-hosted by the 'Life of Action' author - and friend of the show - Mike Fury.

Two words, "Don't Judge". Could an entire philosophy arise from two words? This episode explores the connection between Andy Reid's success and those two words. I thought about those words after rereading Shannon Lee book about her father's philosophy in her book, Be Water, My Friend. She outlined the Parable of the Empty Cup, a story that Lee frequently used to illustrate the power of keeping an open mind and being open to the unexpected. As I read that parable, two words came to mind, "Don't Judge", a two word philosophy that Andy Reid uses to guide his approach to coaching and teaching. This episode explores the synchronistic philosophy connecting these two amazing men.

Send us a textThis podcast is about dealing with your identity struggle as part of the Asian diaspora. I share personal stories and sometimes interview others to promote healthy, honest conversations about what it means to carry trauma, resentment, and confusion—and how we move toward peace, joy, and self-love. I don't have all the answers. This is an ongoing conversation.But today, I have a solution: learn martial arts.If you're a young, lost kid struggling with your identity like I was, this can change your life. It might not solve everything, but it will transform you—physically, mentally, emotionally. Go find a dojo. Book a class. If it's not the right fit, find another. Keep showing up. That's the secret: consistency.On this show, I talk a lot about accepting your cultural identity—learning to forgive your family, let go of resentment toward your mother culture, and finally accept yourself. But maybe I've been overthinking it. Maybe you just need to get your ass kicked… and then learn how to kick ass.Even if you're not into martial arts yet, it'll still help. You'll gain strength, confidence, discipline—and most importantly, you'll start respecting yourself. That's what I would've told my 15-year-old depressed, awkward, gooning, video game–addicted self. I'd throw him into a dojo and watch that flabby blob turn into a diamond stud.Now I'm 32. I'm in the best shape of my life. I go to the gym five days a week. I box. I just tried muay thai for the first time (shoutout to Byron). I'm a blue belt in Kyokushin karate with three years of training, and I wish I had started at 15. (Big shoutout to San Diego Kyokushin Karate and Sogyel Sensei—thank you!)Were you into Dragon Ball Z, Bruce Lee, Tekken, or Final Fantasy? I'm telling you: lean into your Main Character Syndrome. Become the hero of your own story. Martial arts will get you fit, teach you how to protect yourself, and give you the energy that says “I'm not someone to mess with.” You'll walk taller. You'll carry yourself with quiet, calm confidence.You won't be stuck in your head all the time. You'll be punching, kicking, sweating, growing. And yeah, if you're stronger and more confident, your dating life improves. If you're more disciplined, your work improves. Because how you do one thing is how you do everything.Martial arts makes you a better person. And if you're Asian, it connects you to a deep, ancient legacy. If you're not Asian, you're still joining a global tradition. The Ancestors will smile on you.Channel your pain—rage, sadness, neglect, confusion—into one clean punch of pure positive intent. A kamehameha wave from your soul. Change your life. Then change the world.Here's the twist: there is no solution to the identity struggle. Because it was never a problem. It only has power when you obsess over it. Once you move differently, live with strength and purpose, that struggle starts to fade.You've just proven to yourself that you're capable. That you can do pushups, throw a kick, protect your loved ones, and make a difference.Do it for 15-year-old you. Do it for your future self. Do it for the ones you love. Do it for your ancestors. Do it for love.Fantastic video if you want to get started in martial arts:DAY ONE | What I'd Do If I Was Starting From ScratchBruce Lee: Be like water (Inspirational)Support the show

SUMMARY In this conversation, Tuari Dawson explores the themes of vulnerability, cultural identity, and the journey into martial arts. He discusses the impact of Bruce Lee as a role model, the lessons learned during adolescence, and the influence of American martial arts on his training. The conversation highlights the importance of community and belonging in martial arts, as well as the personal growth that comes from these experiences. In this conversation, Tuari explores the evolution of martial arts in America, the significance of cross-training, and the impact of military training on martial arts culture. He also discusses the politics of martial arts, the importance of building a strong foundation, and the concept of martial arts as an infinite game. The conversation emphasizes the need for connection, humor, and humanity in martial arts training, highlighting the shared experiences and struggles within the martial arts community. In this engaging conversation, Jeremy Lesniak and Tuari Dawson explore the evolution of podcasting, the importance of creativity and storytelling in martial arts, and the value of learning and growth through shared experiences. They discuss the challenges and rewards of podcasting, the significance of community, and the necessity of persistence in pursuing one's passions. The dialogue culminates in reflections on change and the impact of sharing one's journey with others. TAKEAWAYS Cultural identity plays a significant role in martial arts. Bruce Lee serves as a powerful role model for many. Adolescence often brings arrogance and overconfidence. Martial arts can provide a refuge from difficult environments. Community in martial arts is unique and essential. American martial arts have a profound influence globally. Lessons learned in martial arts extend beyond the dojo. Martial arts in the U.S. have evolved from a melting pot of styles. Cross-training was once common and is becoming popular again. Martial arts politics often stem from insecurity and fear. Military training has influenced the structure of martial arts. Martial arts is an infinite journey without a clear end. Connection among martial artists fosters community and understanding. Humor and humanity are essential in martial arts training. Looking for colleagues rather than sensei reflects a shift in perspective. Creativity plays a vital role in martial arts as an art form.
