But the aftereffect, if it's not being taken care of, is a sense of disconnect from ourselves. So, then we try to fill that hole with all kinds of other stuff that is not authentic to us, that is over consumerism, that is not feeding each other, that is creating all kinds of side effects.” –Thomas Hübl, PhDSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    The purpose of life is for divine consciousness to merge back into unity through the expression and experience of its interaction with form. Human suffering arises when we resist this process of evolution and demand that the outside world match our personal desires and fears, rather than learning from the reality of the present moment as it unfolds. Enlightenment is the natural outcome of letting go and merging with the unfolding reality, serving the divine rather than the egoic self. © Sounds True Inc. Episodes: © 2026 Michael A. Singer.

    In this episode I'm talking to Dr. Nicolas Rouleau, Ph.D. about his Essay An Immortal Stream of Consciousness: The scientific evidence for the survival of consciousness after permanent bodily death.This Essay was a Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies Essay Competition WinnerIs experience possible after death? "An immortal stream of consciousness: The scientific evidence for the survival of consciousness after permanent bodily death" was the title of Nicolas Rouleau's award-winning 2021 submission for the Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies' international essay competition. Adapted here as a short book, the essay describes a transmissive theory of consciousness inspired by William James and supported by experimental evidence in the field of bioelectromagnetism including the works of the author (Rouleau) and his former doctoral mentor, Michael A. Persinger. It is one of few scientific theories that reconciles physicalism with survival of consciousness after bodily death.BioDr. Nicolas Rouleau is a neuroscientist, bioengineer, and Assistant Professor of Health Sciences at Wilfrid Laurier University. He is also an Adjunct Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Tufts University and Affiliate Scientist at the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts. Dr. Rouleau was the last PhD student of Michael Persinger of Laurentian University, whose work on the electromagnetic bases of consciousness inspired Rouleau to pursue his dissertation on the material-like properties of brain tissues, including their capacity to filter electromagnetic fields. In 2017, he joined the Allen Discovery Center at Tufts University as a Postdoctoral Researcher and was a founding member of David Kaplan's Initiative for Neural Science, Disease, & Engineering at Tufts, focusing on minimal cognitive responses in bioengineered brain models.As a post-doc, Dr. Rouleau published several 3D tissue models of Alzheimer's Disease and traumatic brain injury. During the research freeze of the COVID pandemic, he wrote an award-winning essay on the topic of transmissive consciousness for the Bigelow Institute of Consciousness Studies, which garnered international attention. In 2023, Dr. Rouleau became a faculty member at Laurier and is now a PI of the Self-Organizing Units Lab (SOUL), which is supported by Tri-Council awards to investigate the mechanisms of embodied cognition and synthetic biological intelligences in customizable, bioengineered neural tissues. He also co-directs (with his colleague, Dr. Murugan) the Center for Tissue Plasticity and Biophysics (TPAB) at Laurier. He is most interested in the fundamental and scale-invariant properties of cognitive systems as well as the pursuit of unifying principles that reconcile organic neural function with analogous phenomena in cells, machines, and non-neural organisms.  https://www.bigelowinstitute.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/rouleau-immortal-consciousness.pdf https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

    Critical Consciousness: Beyond Impasses in Environmentalism, Psychoanalysis, and Education (Routledge, 2025) provides insight into the antagonism and disputative dialogue present in contemporary discourse. Taking a broad, pluralistic psychoanalytic perspective, the authors shed light on how and why ideology and conflict have infiltrated education, environmentalism, and psychoanalysis. This book unpacks forms of indoctrination and rejection of new ideas in environmentalism, considers the desubjectification of the human in mental health "services," and assesses how the educational world needs leaders who can articulate unspoken educational aims that perpetuate inequalities, hidden oppression, and their pathogenic effects on disenfranchised groups. This book takes account of the competing schools of psychoanalysis, their members' dismissiveness and enmity toward each other, and their rationalized resistances to discussion across the aisles. From that viewscape, a challenging path forward is proposed. Critical Consciousness is of great interest to psychoanalysts in practice and in training, and to readers interested in the psychological aspects of dehumanization, competition, and opposing group identity. Ben Greenberg, PsyD is a psychologist, psychoanalyst, and founding director of the Center for Dynamic Practice in Santa Fe, NM. After a wonderful recent conversation with Tracy Morgan about Psychoanalysis, she suggested I become a host to do interviews about a few books I mentioned I'm excited about. I love to hear interviews about new books. I have published several scientific papers among other written media, and am working on a few book manuscripts as well. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Is consciousness something the brain produces—or is the brain an interface for something far more vast?In the first episode of Radical Reality, a new series within The Future of Wellness, Keith Parker is joined by sound healer, researcher, and teacher Tom Kenyon for a deep inquiry into consciousness, mind, sound, and non-local awareness.Radical Reality is inspired by Keith's first book of the same name and explores one of the most fundamental questions of our time: what are we really—and how do we know? These conversations are not debates. They are open-ended inquiries, shaped by lived experience and informed by science, philosophy, and contemplative traditions.Tom Kenyon's work sits at a rare intersection of neuroscience and mysticism, psychotherapy and sound, rigorous inquiry and direct experience. Over several decades, he has explored how sound, frequency, and vibration interact with the nervous system—and how altered states of consciousness can be accessed, stabilised, and integrated.In this conversation, Keith and Tom explore:Whether consciousness is produced by the brain or accessed through itSound as a bridge between states of awarenessNon-local mind, attention, and subtle fieldsThe limits of scientific measurement when studying consciousnessDirect experience versus conceptual models of realityWhy modern culture struggles to integrate inner knowingThis episode serves as an entry point—and a point of orientation—for the Radical Reality series ahead.About Radical RealityRadical Reality is a cross-disciplinary inquiry into consciousness, reality, and existence itself.

    You know the pattern is there. You've seen it loop enough times to wonder if the universe is taking notes. If you've ever felt like certain doors refuse to open, or open too easily at exactly the wrong moment...this conversation reveals what's been quietly influencing your choices before you even made them.Episode Overview Astrologer and intuitive guide Gabrielle Celeste joins Will and Karen to explore how consciousness, astrology, and subconscious patterns shape the decisions we think we're making freely. This isn't about horoscopes or vague predictions. It's about understanding why specific themes keep surfacing in your relationships, career, and timing, and what your birth chart reveals about the patterns you're unconsciously running.Gabrielle shares her journey from corporate fall guy to full-time astrologer, explains how your chart functions as a cosmic roadmap (not a prison sentence), and breaks down the difference between sun, moon, and rising signs in terms anyone can grasp.She also delivers a sobering forecast for 2026, including a February week that demands your attention.Questions This Episode AnswersIs your birth chart a cosmic blueprint or a predetermined sentence? Gabrielle explains what your natal chart actually captures, and whether you're stuck with what it reveals.Why does knowing you're a Gemini (or any sun sign) tell you almost nothing about yourself? Discover which of the "big three" astrological placements reveals the truest expression of your soul, and why most people are reading astrology backwards.How do professional astrologers actually see what's coming? Gabrielle reveals how she blends chart readings with intuition, numerology, and shamanic training, and shares examples of eerily specific predictions that came true years later.What separates ethical spiritual practitioners from the grifters? Hear Gabrielle's unfiltered take on what's required before you're qualified to hold space for others...and why bypassing your own shadow work harms the people you claim to serve.What astrological events in 2026 should actually be on your radar? Gabrielle breaks down the most significant transits of the year, including a cosmically loaded week in February and why October/November might echo unfinished business from 2018.How can you tell when you're resisting alignment versus actually lacking it? Gabrielle offers a surprisingly simple divination tool you already have...no chart required.Why This Conversation Is Different Gabrielle doesn't sell certainty or comfort. She acknowledges the paradox of free will versus cosmic influence without pretending to have all the answers. She's transparent about what astrology can't predict (and what she refuses to touch, like exact death dates). She calls out grifters in the spiritual space who chase profit over purpose. And she frames astrology not as mystical fortune-telling, but as a practical lens for understanding subconscious blocks, timing friction, and recurring life patterns; concepts skeptics can respect even if they don't "believe."This episode avoids both spiritual bypassing and cynical dismissiveness. It's grounded, curious, and refreshingly honest about the limits of any single system.For the Skeptic Still Reading You don't have to believe in astrology for patterns to exist in your life. You don't have to accept fate to recognize that certain themes keep surfacing. Gabrielle's work, whether you interpret it as cosmic influence or psychological archetype, offers a framework for seeing what you've been unconsciously repeating. If nothing else, it's a mirror. And mirrors don't lie, even when the reflection makes you uncomfortable.Curiosity isn't gullibility. Exploring astrology doesn't mean abandoning critical thinking. It means asking: What if there's a structure I haven't noticed yet?Listen If You Want ToUnderstand why astrology goes far deeper than daily horoscopesLearn what your rising sign, moon sign, and houses actually meanHear how one woman went from corporate scandal to professional astrologerGet a heads-up on 2026's most intense astrological windowsExplore the intersection of intuition, shadow work, and consciousnessQuestion whether free will and cosmic blueprints can coexistTopics: spiritual awakening, astrology, consciousness, intuition, natal chart, shadow work, metaphysics, soul purpose, modern spirituality, Saturn return, subconscious patterns Speical Offer:Use the code "20AGUA" for 20% off any of the services listed on her website.Connect with Gabrielle CelesteWebsite: https://www.aguaastrology.comSpiritual Sisters Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/76R1e2m64NVuAzfp9cBuOXInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aguaastrologyListener Survey:Help shape the future of the Skeptic Metaphysicians.

From catheter-directed chemotherapy and tumor embolization to immune-based strategies, photobiomodulation, and precision nutrition, Dr. Shah reveals how advanced cancer treatments are being used globally — especially in China — while remaining largely inaccessible in the U.S.This conversation dives deep into the limitations of chemotherapy and radiation, the intelligence of cancer stem cells, immune system suppression, cancer cachexia, and why integrative, individualized approaches give patients their best chance at long-term survival. If you or someone you love is navigating a cancer diagnosis and searching for real options beyond “standard of care,” this episode is essential listening.Key Takeaways:5:20 Radiation therapy risks and how to support recovery nutritionally11:46 Why systemic chemotherapy often fails and selects for aggressive cancer cells12:17 Catheter-directed chemotherapy: targeting tumors without poisoning the body16:25 The immune system as the most powerful anti-cancer weapon26:37 Tumor embolization: starving cancer by cutting off its blood supply34:50 Why advanced cancer therapies thrive in China but are restricted in the U.S.Resources Mentioned:Williams Cancer Institute (Mexico) – https://williamscancerinstitute.comPhotobiomodulation / Intravenous Light Therapy (General Overview) – https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov Want to guest on our shows?Calendly Link for Integrative Lyme Solutions: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/integrative-lyme-solutions-podcast-interviewCalendly Link for Integrative Cancer Solutions: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/podcast-interviewCalendly Link for Dr. K Show: https://calendly.com/drmichaelk/dr-k-show-interview Breaking Free From Lyme: A Comprehensive Guide to Healing and Recovery-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/breaking-free-from-lyme-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: LYMEPODCASTUnleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering Cancer-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-power-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of Cancer-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-within-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2The Science and Spirit of Transformation: A Holistic Guide to Elevating Health, Consciousness, and Purpose-URL: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/the-science-and-spirit-of-transformation-Price: $24.99-Discount Code: DRKSHOWPODCAST -----------------------------------------------A Better Way to Treat Cancer: A Comprehensive Guide to Understanding, Preventing and Most Effectively Treating Our Biggest Health ThreatGrab my book here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CM1KKD9X?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860 Unleashing 10X Power: A Revolutionary Approach to Conquering CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/unleashing-10x-powerPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST1 Healing Within: Unraveling the Emotional Roots of CancerGet it here: https://store.thekarlfeldtcenter.com/products/healing-withinPrice: $24.99100% Off Discount Code: CANCERPODCAST2-----------------------------------------------Integrative Cancer Solutions was created to instill hope and empowerment.

    Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim Fortin reframes wealth from a radically different perspective—one rooted in consciousness rather than effort, hustle, or external conditions. Against the backdrop of economic uncertainty, Jim explains why money is not something to chase, earn, or force into existence, but something that flows naturally from the state of being a person occupies. By shifting attention from form—bank accounts, markets, and bills—to consciousness itself, listeners are invited to rethink everything they believe about financial security and abundance.  Jim breaks down four powerful reframes that dismantle the cultural conditioning around money: that wealth exists outside of us, that hard work guarantees financial success, that numbers define worth, and that current circumstances reflect present truth. Instead, he reveals how wealth is a state of consciousness first—and how money is simply a delayed echo of past thinking. When consciousness changes, form must follow.  If you've been working harder but feeling stuck, anxious, or at the mercy of external forces, this episode offers a grounded yet expansive perspective that can permanently change how you relate to money, supply, and yourself.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  (02:50) The lie that money exists outside of you Why chasing money keeps it out of reach—and how wealth actually takes form through consciousness.  (08:58) Why wealth is a state of being before it's a number Jim explains why focusing on bank balances and markets keeps people trapped in the “shadows.”  (14:45) The cause-and-effect truth behind financial reality How consciousness creates money—and why trying to fix effects never works.  (18:06) Why you are supply itself, not separate from it A powerful reframe that dissolves lack by reconnecting identity to Source.  (24:11) Why your finances reflect past consciousness, not present truth How to stop treating money as a verdict and start using it as feedback.  (29:57) A simple phrase that rewires your relationship with money Jim shares a practical internal shift that changes how you respond to bills, fear, and lack.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Money does not define who you are—it reflects who you have been. When you stop reacting to appearances and start identifying as consciousness itself, the struggle dissolves. Wealth is not something you earn someday; it is something you embody now. Shift the cause, and the effect must change. When you stop waiting for proof and begin living from knowing, supply aligns naturally—and life responds accordingly.  Mentioned resources: Dying to Be Me by Anita Moorjani Disclosure: Some of the links above are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you make a purchase.   Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

    Joscha Bach explores the nature of consciousness, free will, and reality through the lens of computation, cognitive science, and philosophy. Rather than treating the mind as a mystical entity, Joscha frames consciousness as a constructed dream—a model generated by the brain to make sense of the world and coordinate behavior.We examine why beliefs should remain provisional, how the self functions as a useful fiction, and why suffering emerges when internal learning signals misfire. Joscha explains why free will feels real even if decisions arise before awareness, how meaning exists beyond the individual ego, and why wisdom is not simply knowledge but the ability to orient oneself within larger systems of value.BON CHARGE - 15% off red light therapy products I personally usehttps://www.boncharge.com/knowthyself[Code: KNOWTHYSELF]André's Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list___________00:00 — Intro: Josha Bach04:24 — Agnosticism, Evidence, and Logical Alternatives11:20 — Reality as a Mental Simulation13:00 — What Physicalism Actually Claims16:55 — Telepathy, Rituals, and Distributed Minds19:45 — Consciousness Does Not Make Decisions22:55 — Free Will as a Post-Hoc Story24:00 — Consciousness as a Trance State26:00 — Meditation and the Illusion of Self29:10 — Out-of-Body Experiences Explained31:07 — Ad: BON CHARGE36:30 — Why the Brain Fills in Missing Reality39:50 — Dreams, Selves, and Narrative Identity43:20 — Intelligence, Models, and World-Building47:10 — Why Reality Feels Stable51:00 — Meaning, Agency, and Mental Compression55:10 — Why Consciousness Feels Central (But Isn't)59:30 — The Psychological World vs Physical Reality1:04:10 — Intelligence Without Awareness1:08:45 — The Cost of Believing the Self Is Real1:13:30 — Waking Up From the Narrative1:18:40 — What a Cognitive Science View Really Implies1:23:30 — Final Thoughts: Living Inside the Dream___________Episode Resources: https://www.cimc.ai/https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyselfpodcast.comListen to the show:Spotify: https://spoti.fi/4bZMq9lApple: https://apple.co/4iATICX

    If the world feels louder, heavier, and more emotionally exhausting than ever...and your spiritual practice isn't giving you the calm it used to...this episode is for you. What if the problem isn't that you're “doing it wrong,” but that you've misunderstood what peace actually is?In this reflective solo episode, Will shares a Zen-inspired story; The Silent Mountain, and uses it as a grounded framework to explore a very human question: how do we stay present, awake, and spiritually connected when the world feels chaotic and emotionally overwhelming? Rather than chasing spiritual highs or bypassing discomfort, this conversation reframes spiritual awakening as a spiral, not a summit. Peace isn't found by escaping the noise of life...it emerges when we learn how to relate to it differently. This is modern spirituality without platitudes, gurus, or denial of reality.Key Insights & TakeawaysSilence isn't the absence of sound, it's the ability to remain internally steady even when life is loud.Spiritual awakening isn't linear; growth happens in cycles, with ascents and descents that are equally meaningful.Feeling anger, grief, or outrage doesn't mean you're failing spiritually, it means you're engaged with the human experience.The danger isn't emotion, it's getting stuck in it and losing perspective, agency, or gratitude.Awareness changes everything: when you stop fighting the “noise,” you begin to notice the larger pattern...the symphony underneath it all.You can hold gratitude and discomfort at the same time without invalidating either.Why This Conversation Is Different This episode avoids spiritual clichés like “just stay positive” or “everything happens for a reason.” There's no spiritual bypassing, no denial of injustice, and no promise of instant peace. Instead, Will explores consciousness and metaphysics through lived experience, acknowledging real emotional weight while refusing to let it collapse into despair. It's an invitation to stay awake inside the mess, not pretend the mess isn't there.Listener Reassurance Questioning doesn't make you cynical. Feeling overwhelmed doesn't mean you've lost your way. And curiosity does not equal gullibility. This is a space where skepticism and intuition can coexist, and where modern spirituality is allowed to be honest, imperfect, and deeply human. Call to Action Listen with curiosity, not expectation. Reflect on where you might be fighting the noise instead of listening to the larger rhythm beneath it. And if this episode resonates, join the conversation, because navigating awakening is easier when we're willing to talk about it honestly. The Skeptic Metaphysicians is a pragmatic spirituality podcast for curious minds exploring the unknown without abandoning critical thinking. Each episode breaks down metaphysics explained through grounded conversation, examining hidden truths behind spiritual awakening, consciousness expansion, and expanded consciousness. We explore intuition, mediumship, spirit guides, and the mechanics of healing and personal transformation—bridging skeptical inquiry with meaningful spiritual experience. If you're navigating your own awakening or questioning reality while staying intellectually honest, this podcast is for seekers and skeptics alike.Subscribe, Rate & Review!If you found this episode enlightening, mind-expanding, or even just thought-provoking (see what we did there?), please take a moment to rate and review us.

Veda Austin has photographed over 70,000 water samples using her unique crystallography method, and what she's discovered challenges everything we think we know about reality. Water showed a woman's pregnancy before she knew she was pregnant. It revealed a seed's potential by displaying the full-grown plant instead of the seed itself. It captured a man's thought about pheasant hunting from thousands of miles away. And it may hold ancient language encoded in repeating symbols that appear in frozen water around the world. This episode reveals why your thoughts literally restructure the water in your body, how the last word you speak before drinking becomes water's "welcoming committee," and why distilled water can't hold healing information the way mineral-rich water can. You'll learn why becoming still allows you to see your reflection in your body's internal waters, how water exists in a fourth phase beyond solid, liquid, and gas, and why understanding water means understanding our own untapped potential as human beings. Discover: • The freezing method: how freezing water to liquid crystal stage for exactly 5 minutes 30 seconds reveals three-dimensional patterns that prove water's intelligence  • The welcoming committee principle: why saying "thank you" before drinking water changes its molecular structure and how it enters your cells  • The predictive phenomenon: how water shows future events, pregnancy, and even injuries before they happen, suggesting it exists outside linear time  • The hydroglyph language: repeating symbols that appear in water samples worldwide, resembling ancient hieroglyphs and recognized by AI as actual language  • The healing word protocol: how writing an inspired word, freezing water over it for 30 seconds, and eating the crystallography has cured insomnia in 10 days  Find Veda Austin: Website: https://vedaaustin.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vedaaustin_water Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction  7:02 - Near-Death Experience & The Path to Water Research  12:40 - Discovering Alkaline Water's Healing Properties  16:53 - Glass Purging & The Body's Intelligence  25:36 - Sacred Geometry & Pyramidal Water Experiments  27:13 - Discovering the Freezing Method & First Hand Image  34:22 - Remote Thought Experiments: Pheasant Hunting Vision  41:00 - Hydroglyphs: Water's Repeating Symbol Language  43:29 - Water Predicting Pregnancy Before Detection  48:54 - Seeds & Potential: Water Shows the Future Plant  56:27 - How Your Thoughts Change Your Body's Water  1:00:00 - The Last Word Before Drinking: Water's Welcoming Committee Learn more about your ad choices.

    Andrea Samadi revisits a conversation with neuroscientist Dr. Baland Jalal about how curiosity launched his career and how transitional sleep states fuel creativity. The episode explores sleep paralysis research and the hypnagogic window—the moments before sleep and after waking when the brain makes unexpected connections. This week, Episode 384—based on our review of Episode 224, recorded in June 2022—we'll explore: ✔ Why learning, creativity, and curiosity depend on a regulated nervous system ✔ How sleep—especially REM—creates the conditions for insight and problem-solving ✔ What happens in the brain when focus shuts down and imagination turns on ✔ Why safety, rhythm, and rest are prerequisites for learning—not rewards after it ✔ How understanding sleep changes the way we approach performance, education, and growth Listeners learn practical tips for capturing insights at the edge of sleep, setting intentions before bed, and protecting morning silence to preserve creative flashes. The episode emphasizes that learning and creativity emerge best when the nervous system feels safe and regulated. This episode launches Season 15's Phase 1 focus on regulation and safety, framing sleep, rhythm, and emotional regulation as the essential foundation for motivation, learning, and sustained performance. Welcome back to Season 15 of the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast. I'm Andrea Samadi, and here we bridge the science behind social and emotional learning, emotional intelligence, and practical neuroscience—so you can create measurable improvements in well-being, achievement, productivity, and results. When we launched this podcast seven years ago, it was driven by a question I had never been taught to ask— not in school, not in business, and not in life: If results matter—and they matter now more than ever—how exactly are we using our brain to make these results happen? Most of us were taught what to do. Very few of us were taught how to think under pressure, how to regulate emotion, how to sustain motivation, or even how to produce consistent results without burning out. That question led me into a deep exploration of the mind–brain–results connection—and how neuroscience applies to everyday decisions, conversations, and performance. That's why this podcast exists. Each week, we bring you leading experts to break down complex science and translate it into practical strategies you can apply immediately. If you've been with us through Season 14, you may have felt something shift. That season wasn't about collecting ideas. It was about integrating these ideas into our daily life. Across conversations on neuroscience, social and emotional learning, sleep, stress, exercise, nutrition, and mindset frameworks—from voices like Bob Proctor, José Silva, Dr. Church, Dr. John Medina, and others—one thing became clear: These aren't separate tools. They're parts of one operating system. When the brain, body, and emotions are aligned, performance stops feeling forced—and starts to feel sustainable. Season 14 showed us what alignment looks like in real life. And now we move into Season 15 that is about understanding how that alignment is built—so we can build it ourselves, using predictable, science-backed principles. Because alignment doesn't happen all at once. It happens by using a sequence. By repeating this sequence over and over again, until magically (or predictably) we notice our results have changed. So this season, we're revisiting past conversations—not to repeat them—but to understand how they fit together, so we can replicate them ourselves. Because the brain doesn't develop skills in isolation. Learning doesn't happen in isolation. And neither does performance, resilience, or well-being. The brain operates as a set of interconnected systems. When one system is out of balance, everything else is affected. So Season 15 we've organized as a review roadmap, where each episode explores one foundational brain system—and each phase builds on the one before it. Season 15 Roadmap: Phase 1 — Regulation & Safety Phase 2 — Neurochemistry & Motivation Phase 3 — Movement, Learning & Cognition Phase 4 — Perception, Emotion & Social Intelligence Phase 5 — Integration, Insight & Meaning Today we begin with Phase One: Regulation and Safety. Because before learning can happen, before curiosity can emerge, before motivation or growth is possible— the brain must feel safe. That's where we are today as we embark on this journey together. I encourage us all to take notes, and apply what each phase is encouraging us to do. This is not just for you, the listener, I'm going right back myself, and revisiting each interview with a new lens. PHASE 1: REGULATION & SAFETY Staples: Sleep + Stress Regulation Core Question: Is the nervous system safe enough to learn? Anchor Episodes Episode 384 — Baland Jalal How learning begins: curiosity, sleep, imagination, creativity Bruce Perry “What happened to you?” — trauma, rhythm, relational safety Sui Wong Autonomic balance, lifestyle medicine, brain resilience Rohan Dixit HRV, real-time self-regulation, nervous system literacy EPISODE 384 — REVIEW OF EP 224 (JUNE 2022) Revisiting Our Interview with Baland Jalal Today's Episode 384 we go back to Episode 224[i], recorded in June 2022, featuring Danish neuroscientist Dr. Baland Jalal—a researcher, author, and one of the world's leading experts on sleep paralysis. Dr. Jalal is a neuroscientist affiliated with Harvard University's Department of Psychology and was previously a Visiting Researcher at Cambridge University Medical School, where he earned his PhD. His work has been featured in The New York Times, Washington Post, BBC, NBC News, The Guardian, Forbes, Reuters, PBS (NOVA), and many others. He also writes for TIME Magazine, Scientific American, Big Think, and The Boston Globe. Since our original interview, I've watched Dr. Jalal's influence expand globally. Most recently, he appeared on Jordan B. Peterson's podcast[ii], discussing Dreams, Nightmares, and Neuroscience, and on Lewis Howes' School of Greatness[iii], where he explored Dreams, Lucid Dreaming, and the Neuroscience of Consciousness—an episode that truly stretched Lewis's thinking. What stood out to me most—then and now—was Dr. Jalal's transparency about learning. At the beginning of his interview with Lewis Howes, Dr. Jalal shared how a single experience—his desire to understand his own episodes of sleep paralysis more than 20 years ago—sparked a lifelong curiosity. That curiosity led him to his local library in Copenhagen and ultimately transformed his entire career path in ways he could never have imagined as a young man spending time on the streets. That honesty resonated deeply with me. Before Google, I remember sitting in a local library in Arizona around that same time, trying to understand the mysteries of the world—from the Great Pyramid of Giza to Stonehenge—reading everything I could get my hands on. Like Dr. Jalal, I was curious about many things I didn't understand, but my path didn't start with neuroscience or learning science, which came later for me. We all begin somewhere. Let's go to our first clip from Dr. Baland Jalal, where he shares how his love of learning truly began.

    In this episode of The Lectern, host Ethan Hsieh sits down with philosopher and cognitive scientist Mark Miller to explore the science of predictive processing and its implications for happiness, meaning, and wellbeing. They unpack how the brain is not a passive receiver of reality, but an active prediction engine—constantly generating its best guesses about the world and updating them through experience. From belief formation and perception to resilience, virtue, play, and mindfulness, the conversation bridges cutting-edge cognitive science with ancient contemplative wisdom. Together, Ethan and Mark discuss how understanding the predictive nature of the mind can transform how we relate to uncertainty, cultivate agency, and develop a deeper, more participatory sense of happiness—both individually and collectively. This episode also introduces Mark Miller's upcoming course, Generations of Joy, which explores these ideas through neuroscience, philosophy, and contemplative practice.

    In the late 1990s, a strange carbon molecule quietly delivered the single longest lifespan extension ever recorded in mammals. The rats lived about 90% longer, and almost no one was paying attention. This episode breaks down what that molecule is, why it works, and how it may upgrade mitochondria, sleep, and human performance when used correctly. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Chris Burres, founder and chief scientist of MyVitalC and the original long-term manufacturer of carbon 60. Chris has produced this Nobel Prize–winning molecule since the early 1990s, supplying research institutions around the world years before it ever entered the biohacking space. He explains how carbon 60 behaves differently from traditional antioxidants, why stability and concentration used to be major problems, and how modern manufacturing finally made real-world use possible. Chris is also a published author, longevity summit host, patent holder, and longtime science communicator who brings rare clarity and humor to complex biology. Dave and Chris explore how carbon 60 interacts with mitochondria, oxidative stress, metabolism, and electrical signaling in the body, and where it fits alongside ketosis, nootropics, supplements, and functional medicine strategies. They also unpack why improving mitochondrial function often shows up first as better energy and sleep optimization, and how that foundation supports longevity, brain optimization, and Smarter Not Harder performance. Along the way, Dave shares his own early experience with C60, how he uses it today, and why it now shows up even in his Danger Coffee stack. You'll Learn: • Why carbon 60 produced the longest longevity result ever recorded in mammal studies • How mitochondrial efficiency shapes energy, sleep, and human performance • What makes C60 a selective antioxidant instead of a blunt one • Why purity, concentration, and stability determine whether a supplement works • How carbon 60 fits into biohacking stacks built around ketosis and metabolism • What users report first, from focus and resilience to deeper sleep • Why mitochondrial health underpins long-term anti-aging strategies • How to think about supplements through a Smarter Not Harder lens Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

    Tonight, my Haunted Hearts, I'm honored to welcome Ryan Kralik. Ryan Kralik is an author and independent researcher exploring how information shapes the structure of reality, from physics and biology to consciousness and culture. His work draws on systems thinking, contemporary physics, and cognitive science to examine how informational processes underlie physical phenomena and give rise to meaning, perception, and continuity across domains. His writing and research have been featured in Ancient Origins, Greek Reporter, Aperture Magazine, and across a range of programs focused on cosmology, anomalies and foundational questions about reality.His forthcoming book, It From Us – An Information-First Framework and the Purpose of Consciousness, presents a model in which matter, life, and awareness emerge from information organizing itself toward coherence. Trained in remote viewing and engaged for decades in the study of anomalous phenomena, Kralik brings a disciplined, analytical approach to topics such as UAPs, psi research, and consciousness—seeking an integrated framework that bridges empirical inquiry and human experience without reducing either.Ryan's Links:Website: https://itfromus.com/

    Aging is not something Zoltan Istvan plans to accept quietly. He wants to treat death like a technical bug, rewrite the rules of biology, and turn California into the global test bed for radical human upgrades. From cyborg implants to AI driven longevity science, this episode explores what happens when a candidate for governor openly argues that humans should evolve beyond their biological limits and take control of how long and how well they live. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Zoltan Istvan, a leading transhumanist, futurist, longevity advocate, and current candidate for Governor of California. Zoltan has spoken at Parliaments and Senates around the world, appeared on The Joe Rogan Experience, consulted for the US Armed Forces, and served as a correspondent for The New York Times. He has addressed the World Bank, the World Economic Forum, and the UK Parliament, and his work has influenced world leaders while shaping global conversations on AI, liberty, and human enhancement. Trained in philosophy and ethics at Columbia University and the University of Oxford, Zoltan brings rare depth to the intersection of technology, biology, and governance. Together, they explore whether aging should be classified as a disease, why regulation is slowing breakthroughs in longevity science, and how California could become ground zero for anti-aging innovation. They debate biology versus machine integration, open source technology versus centralized control, and what morphological freedom really means when enhancement technologies move faster than policy. The discussion spans mitochondria, neuroplasticity, brain optimization, stem cells, organ printing, implants, and the ethical risks of surveillance, algorithmic persuasion, and unchecked AI. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, longevity, metabolism, functional medicine, anti-aging strategies, supplements, nootropics, ketosis, fasting, carnivore frameworks, sleep optimization, and living Smarter Not Harder in a world increasingly shaped by AI and technology, ideally with a cup of Danger Coffee in hand. You'll Learn: • Why aging may be a solvable problem rather than an unavoidable fate • How politics and regulation influence access to longevity and anti-aging therapies • The real tradeoffs between biological upgrades and machine integration • Why mitochondria, neuroplasticity, and brain optimization matter in human enhancement • How AI and surveillance technology threaten cognitive and biological autonomy • What morphological freedom means for the future of medicine and personal choice • Why open source approaches to biohacking could protect liberty and innovation • How Smarter Not Harder strategies support longevity in a rapidly evolving world Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

The conversation centers on why chronic conditions often persist when health is treated as purely physical and what becomes possible when the human biofield is taken seriously.Health is approached here as an interaction between the body, emotional patterns, belief systems, and awareness itself. We examine how modalities like acupuncture, hands-off energy healing, and biofield-based practices point toward the same underlying principle: coherence matters.Placebo and nocebo effects expose a familiar pattern: real-world results consistently outpacing institutional validation.

    Ryan reflects on the profound changes unfolding in the world today: a shift toward a new age of knowledge, truth, and awakening, alongside a growing divergence of consciousness between good and evil. Together, he and Alex explore how to navigate this moment with clarity, integrity, and awareness as humanity approaches a pivotal crossroads. Ryan also shares his candid thoughts on living under constant scrutiny, how it has shaped his perspective, and what it means to stand at the center of something far greater than himself.
