We may be going through a high vibe spiritual awakening, and it may involve literal intergalactic exploration, or even reaching through the Veil to connect with Spirit. But at the end of the day, we return to our human bodies that are existing on planet Earth. We are indeed spiritual beings within a human experience. But let us NOT forget the human part! There's a lot to consider when exploring new age spirituality. And what I have to say in this podcast episode are things that I don't think get talked about often enough in this community. And these things have been on my heart for awhile, and I thought it was about time to bring them up. In this podcast episode, I want to have an honest discussion about something that might not appear to be spiritual upon first glance, but is actually vital in cultivating a “grounded” spiritual approach to awakening. And that is critical reasoning. Stay tuned!

Episode Highlights:  forgiveness, free will, determinism, acceptance, personal growth,  consciousness, nihilism, spirituality, grounded spirituality, profound experiences   Summary: Get ready to dive into some real talk with Kaylor and Coach and Team Member, Mikayla Sprung this edition of The HOT Seat! Hang onto your hats as they jump into a crazy mix of topics like doppelgangers and the sweet life in Mexico where Mikayla spends part of the year living. Kaylor also gets real about his struggles with not living up to his full potential, and it's a ride of raw honesty and feels. They're not afraid to get deep, either. From hashing out the difference between acceptance and forgiveness to pondering the whole free will vs. determinism thing, they're diving into the big questions with no holds barred. And when it comes to spirituality, they're laying it all on the table. Sharing their own journeys and awakenings, they'll make you think twice about chasing those big spiritual moments and remind you to stay grounded. But hey, it's not all serious stuff—stick around for a lightning round of 'this or that' questions that'll keep you laughing 'til the very end! So if you're down for some serious soul-searching and a whole lot of fun, hit play on this week's edition of The HOT Seat—it's gonna be one wild ride! Takeaways: Acceptance is more important than forgiveness when it comes to personal growth The concept of free will is complex and uncertain Living as though free will exists can lead to a more fulfilling and purposeful life Determinism, if true, can be a scary thought and may lead to nihilism Living as though we have free will allows us to shape our world and have an impact on it Believing in something greater than ourselves can help combat nihilism and provide hope in life Spiritual experiences can be profound in different ways, and they don't always have to be love and light moments Grounded spirituality involves going within and facing our internal pain and insecurities   If you enjoyed the episode, please be sure to take a screenshot and share it out on Instagram and tag @thekaylorbetts.

In this episode, we delve into the question, 'What is Spirituality?' This thought-provoking topic is often met with a wide array of perspectives, and as you know at Erah, we aim to challenge conventional commentary and push the boundaries of understanding.There are a lot of popular interpretations of spirituality that have shaped our societal and individual beliefs. The majority of our actions, conscious & unconscious, are in some way influenced by religious, philosophical, or traumatic worldviews. we may just be able to break through to the 'universal love' so many wisdom teachers of the past have spoken about. Throughout this contemplation, continue to stay open to what wants to be shared with you. Contemplation, much like meditation, is multifaceted. It grants a very private and intimate look into what is living within. It invites us to challenge the facts we hold as truth & encourages us to look again. To explore this topic for ourselves & eventually open a larger, more inclusive dialogue with all we touch with our work & life.If you prefer to read along, this contemplation is published in the Erah Society Journal. -Erah Society, founded by Jasmine Nnenna & Alex Verville, is an Oasis for seekers & founders.

"There's a part of me that cannot be satiated by this worldly experience." Grand rising, soul and podcast family! I'm excited to share yet another LIVE podcast episode with you - freshly out of the oven, taped and recorded in my beautiful new home in Bavaria. I sat down with my good friend and fellow seeker, Felix Wittmann. Felix is currently birthing his business as a somatic-spiritual coach, assisting people in coming into deeper embodiment of their true selves through nervous system work, trauma integration, and restoring relationship with God. His approach is founded on a synergy of trauma-informed somatic principles and a more intuitive and mystical approach. In his 1:1 coaching sessions, he creates safe and sacred spaces for people to explore, experience, and integrate their full spectrum human experience. I am deeply inspired by Felix's commitment and devotion to God and how he seeks to understand. I'm infinitely grateful for the connection with him, and to me personally, this is a testament to the work here on the podcast. Show yourselves, people! Unapologetically. That's the only way the world can respond to you on eye-level, meeting you where you're at, and providing you with people, places, and circumstances that are aligned for you. I love you.

Taken from our recent Embodied Spirituality course. Jeff Brown talks about the practice and application of being grounded and truly embodying our spirituality.  To join our courses and our community go to www.embodimentunlimited.com Find Mark Walsh on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/warkmalsh/ About Jeff Brown Jeff's innovative new terms and short writings continue to be a growing phenomenon, widely shared by seekers and growers worldwide. His quotes have been shared in social media by Brain Games co-host Jason Silva, actress Chrissy Metz, songstresses Alanis Morissette and Fergie, and many other well-known figures. Most beautifully, they have touched and benefitted millions of souls. Jeff now understands that each step on his path laid down the foundation of a new model: Grounded Spirituality. The challenges he faced, and the countless steps of overcoming were intended for this purpose: to support humanity in their efforts to embody all that they are. Not to bypass their humanness, but to celebrate it. Not to find enlightenment independent of the self, but to find enrealment deep within it. Here we are, just as we are. He has spent the past several years, further forging and articulating his realizations, honing his voice, and shaping this new model. After an intensive and laborious process, buried in his writing cave outside Toronto, Jeff brought forth his most comprehensive work to date. Published in March 2019, the book Grounded Spirituality calls out and critically reviews ungrounded spiritualities, and presents a new model of authentic humanness, offering us a more integrated, embodied, and heartfelt path going forward. In November 2020, Jeff's 4th book of popular quotes, Hearticulations, was published. Endorsed by Grammy Award-Winning singer LeAnn Rimes, Hearticulations reminds us of the golden threads that bind us together and that there is more that connects us than divides us. Jeff is presently breaking new ground as an Enrealment Activist, with lots of exciting plans in the works including: a facilitators' training course for Grounded Spirituality; a soon-to-be-launched podcast and video interface; a plethora of new courses at Soulshaping Institute; co-creating benevolent movements; traveling the world teaching and connecting with his supporters…. and whatever other unexpected surprises await this wildly rich path of Sacred Purpose. Stay tuned! https://jeffbrown.co/books/

In this captivating episode of the Integrated Wisdom Podcast, I dive a little deeper into one of the most profound questions that shape our lives - 'Why are we here?' and explore the consistent concepts across various spiritual frameworks that provide some clues about the answers to this question.Influences and Sources:Tatiana shares her journey of exploring spirituality from a young age, seeking answers outside of organized religion.Mentions influential authors and their bodies of work, including Dr. Brian Weiss, Dolores Cannon, Dr. Michael Newton, and Jane Roberts.Highlights the extensive body of work by Allan Kardec, whose books provide detailed information on spiritual realities, the purpose of existence, and more.Reincarnation and Evolution of the Soul:Tatiana explores the concept of reincarnation and mentions scientific evidence from the University of Virginia's Department of Perceptual Studies, who have been studying children's memories of past lives for over 60 years.               https://med.virginia.edu/perceptual-studies/our-research/Describes how reincarnation provides opportunities for learning and soul evolution, progressing towards becoming pure unconditional love energy.Explains the purpose of experiencing different roles and lessons in each incarnation, including learning empathy, compassion, and understanding.Highlights that reincarnation offers multiple chances to learn lessons and progress, emphasizing that nobody gets left behind on the path of evolution.Discusses the interconnectedness of all beings, emphasizing the shared journey towards becoming pure unconditional love energy.Recognizes that individuals may be at different stages of their spiritual evolution but are all on the same trajectory.Encourages compassion, understanding, and a shift in perspective toward seeing the essence of people rather than the roles they play.Don't forget to hit SUBSCRIBE or FOLLOW to keep up to date with our episodes.Intro and Outro music: Inspiring Morning by PlaysoundYou can also find me on Instagram @integrated_wisdomDisclaimer: This podcast is intended for educational purposes only.

This week's guest is Ange de Lumiere a spiritual lawyer, author and podcaster. After a fifteen-year thriving career as an international business lawyer, Ange left the corporate world to pursue what she likes to call her PhD in Intuition from the University of Life. She explored various modalities but is the most well-known for Akashic records. She has also authored several books and is in the process of finishing her second memoir called Spiritual Lawyer. During our conversation, we discuss Spirituality, ways of demystifying it to bring it into the real world, its misconceptions and its misapplications. You can find her on Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube. She has a Facebook community called True Spirituality with Ange.  ---  Embody H.E.R.  https://mailchi.mp/carolmaewhittick/embody-her  Spiritual Life Coaching: https://www.carolmaewhittick.com/her-coaching  Carol Mae Whittick website: https://www.carolmaewhittick.com/ Carol Mae Whittick Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cazmick/

In this engaging conversation, Jeff Brown and Gavi Strauss critically review and examine patriarchal spirituality, discuss the meaningful distinction between a sky-down and feet-up spirituality, differentiate self-avoidant versions of awakening from self-honoring versions, clarify how it is that one can alchemize their localized and expansive threads of consciousness into one purposeful form, and lay down some of the tracks for an Enrealment Method that begins deep within the healing and development of the self, and that moves outward, and inward from there. In an enrealed world, we will no longer Godjectify and glorify so-called holy men like the Dalai Lama. We will be too busy living our spirituality as humanness to waste our time pretending that there is such a thing as an enlightened master. There isn't. It's a delusion forged in the fires of patriarchal ambition and dissociation.Links and Resources:Jeff Brown's book Grounded Spirituality... https://www.amazon.com/Grounded-Spirituality-Jeff-Brown/dp/1988648033/Book a free 30 minute intro call with Gavriel Strauss... https://www.gavrielstrauss.com/Trevor Hall's Song 'Arrows'...

Burnout is increasingly rampant in our world and we need new approaches—adapted from traditional wisdom—that reverse this trend. Unfortunately, turning to many current spiritual practices and perspectives can lead to bypassing underlying issues. An attitude of deep transformation from the inside-out leads to changes that are authentic, sustainable, and integrated. Making 42 valuable, but obscure, mystical texts accessible with commentary, reflections, practices, and more, today's special guest, Rabbi Matthew Ponak presents through his book,  Embodied Kabbalah, teachings from Jewish mysticism alongside insightful inspirations from current thinkers and the world's great philosophers. Rabbi Matthew Ponak is a teacher of Jewish mysticism, a spiritual counselor, and the cofounder of the Mekorah Institute—an online spiritual center for embodied practice. Ordained with honors as a rabbi at the neo-Hasidic Rabbinical School of Hebrew College, he also holds a Master's degree in Contemplative Religions from Naropa University. Matthew lives in Victoria, British Columbia, and is certified as a Focusing Professional to guide others to deeper self-knowledge and healing.

In this very connective conversation (Part 1/2), Jeff dialogues with IFS founder Richard Schwartz. Richard had originally connected with him after reading his book 'Grounded Spirituality' and feeling a kindred connection to its message. In this dialogue, Richard shares the origins of IFS (Internal Family Systems), and they actively discuss the nature of the self, processes of healing and transformation, and the true meaning of spirituality.

In this very vulnerable conversation, Jeff and author Chris Grosso advocate for a spirituality that is indistinguishable from our humanness, one that never imagines itself fully realized or enlightened. Chris talks about his addiction history, and shares some of the learnings and practices that helped him through. Two ‘not spiritual teachers' rejecting soulebrity and Godjectification, on a quest for that which is grounded and true.

This rich, diverse and grounded conversation will leave you feeling seen, satisfied and so at peace with exactly where you are in your journey. Dani and I delve into the importance of creating space for your whole self and your evolution in your life and work. She beautifully shares her recent and ongoing process of moving into an expression of herself, and how that has translated into her relationships, life and mission. We celebrate and expand upon our sobriety journeys, the reality of navigating relational changes when choosing new priorities and the gift of claiming a substance-free lifestyle. As entrepreneurs, we speak to the realities of the peaks, valleys and devotion required to create something from scratch and how vitally important and powerful it is to share from a place of embodiment. We explore what it's looked like navigating receiving support, feeling triggered and experiencing comparison and competition, and cultivating the integrity and capacity to be, do and have more. Dani brings us on her journey of birthing her Fully Expressed offer (which sounds INCREDIBLE), and how it blossomed from months of being present with life's invitations, initiations and activations. I also drop another Ceremony of Service teaser as I expand on the difference between purpose and mission, and the reciprocal relationship they have with one another. Ceremony of Service begins on 8.8.22 -- if you're organically called to be in that room, here's your access key.

Reluctant to move on too quickly from my recent conversations with Michael Trotta and Philip Shepherd, I invited my friend Don McLeod to spend some time with me processing what we'd heard. Don, the co-founder of the Wisdom Centre, sees connections between what Michael and Philip were saying and the ancient Wisdom tradition--a way of knowing that is imaginal, embodied, and holistic.

Jonathan Goldman, Innovator in Light Medicine, Has Mapped The Human Energy Vehicle in a Revolutionary Way That is Both Intricate and Practical, Empowering People From All Walks Of Life In Their Own Personal Evolution And Healing.In his four decades of working with Energy Medicine, first as an acupuncturist and then as the developer of Transformational Energy Healing, he has mapped the multi-layered Human Energy Vehicle (HEV). Goldman has uniquely described where and how thought forms, emotions, energetic material, beliefs, and spiritual qualities live and operate in the multiple energy layers that are within and around the human body. This has allowed him to create a form of healing which goes beyond and enhances psychotherapy, allopathic medicine, and alternative healing modalities.From that point forward, Goldman began receiving what became The Chakra Map, Transformational Energy Healing, and The Divine Tactics. His own journey of personal healing and spiritual evolution has paralleled the knowledge that he has received and taught to thousands.Goldman is one of the leading educators on the embodiment of Light and its use in healing and for spiritual illumination. The Essential Light Institute, which he co-founded in 2008, is dedicated to teaching the arts of self-transformation and energy healing through direct relationship with the living force of Light. His book The Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart he describes as "an experiential, practical, transformational manual for the adventure school of your life." Tune in for this enlightening conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Facebook Livestream by Clicking Here.Segment 1Sam opens up the show with a passage from his book Everyday Awakening, “Play Can Be Deep Work.” He then shares a story about someone who has benefitted from taking time off from work in the middle of the week. Sam welcomes his guest, Light Medicine innovator Jonathan Goldman. Jonathan shares how he got started on his journey to Transformational Energy Healing, a journey which took him all over the world.        Segment 2Jonathan continues the story of his spiritual growth, including a transformational experience he had during a trip to Brazil in the 1970s. He then tells us about a voice that spoke to him and encouraged him to embark on his journey. He goes into detail on how sickness and disease start in the mind and make their way into our body. Sam asks Jonathan: is our spirit in our body, or is our body in our spirit? Sam and Jonathan discuss the Hindu tradition of energy layers that reside in the body, and then start to discuss the concept of chakras.             Segment 3Continuing the discussion on chakras, Sam asks Jonathan how he discovered the concept and how it helps to define who we are as humans. Jonathan shares a deep experience he had while in his office in Oregon, that formed the basis for how he lives and does his teaching. Sam shares a story of gratitude he experienced at his center in New York City. Jonathan gives advice on how to open up gratitude as a vibrational healing tool. Sam asks Jonathan a classic New York question: what do we even need our bodies for? Jonathan talks about the importance of going “through and out,” not “up and out,” when experiencing pain. Sam shares a story of pain he experienced this past weekend. Segment 4Sam asks Jonathan how we can use Light Energy and Chakras to navigate the craziness of modern life. Jonathan talks about the many ways we can manage modern day issues and stresses by living “through the heart.” Sam quotes: “The mind should be the heart's soldier.” To close out the show, Jonathan takes listeners through a compassion exercise. For more information, Jonathan can be reached at EssentialLight.org.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-conscious-consultant-hour8505/donations

In today's world we actually have two viruses going on. We have the physical level virus, and we have a virus of fear that is being provoked not only by physical forces but exterior ones too. This fear lives in our third chakra and is the home of dissolution, the ego and fear of death. The antidote for this level of fear is faith; our inbuilt energy in the mental body of our hearts. When we center ourselves and actually live from within our heart, everything changes and becomes more in flow. Versus when we are ego centered and trying to project our will into the world. Wouldn't it be great if we could always live a heart centered life from the space of great compassion and deep faith? My guest this week Jonathan Goldman is here to show us just how possible that is. Join Johnathan and me for a fascinating interview on health, healing and personal evolution.  Dr Friedemann's Takeaways: Intro (00:00) How My Understanding Of Chakras Came To Be (10:09) Living Through The Heart Process (17:58) The Root Of Fear (24:13) Teaching About Faith And Compassion (29:01) 10 Week Series (34:15) Meet Jonathan Goldman Jonathan Goldman, Principal Teacher at the institute, has been practicing acupuncture, energy medicine, and spiritual healing since 1976. His spiritual healership was awakened through his experiences in the mountains and jungles of Brasil.  He was led to develop the multi-leveled energy medicine work of Transformational Energy Healing and the Chakra Map, a unique, accessible, and applicable way of viewing the Human Energy Vehicle (HEV). He is the author of Gift of The Body, which he describes as, “A textbook for the adventure school of your life.” Jonathan has been leading self transformational workshops since 1994 and co-founded the Essential Light Institute in 2008. He is passionate about helping people experientially realize the reality and the potential of Universal Light for their healing, awakening, and work on earth. He does this through his commitment to his own ongoing healing and through walking his talk. He is a compassionate, kind, and entertaining teacher, calling people to their hearts through truth, courage, and laughter.

The great sages for millennia have taught that the answers to healing, spiritual evolution, elevation ofconsciousness, and living a happy and fulfilled life are inside of us. But where exactly are they and howdo you work with them?Our guest today, Jonathan Goldman can answer those questions for you. In his four decades of workingwith Energy Medicine, first as an acupuncturist and then as the developer of Transformational EnergyHealing, he has mapped the multi-layered Human Energy Vehicle (HEV). Goldman has uniquelydescribed where and how thought forms, emotions, energetic material, beliefs, and spiritual qualities liveand operate in the multiple energy layers that are within and around the human body. This has allowedhim to create a form of healing which goes beyond and enhances psychotherapy, allopathic medicine,and alternative healing modalities.What defines the uniqueness of Goldman's work is identifying the specific characteristics -- personal andtranspersonal -- that live in the various chakras where they interface with these five energy layers. Heteaches, for example, where the actual vibrations of Universal Light, compassion, calm, forgiveness, andfaith live inside of you, and how to access and utilize them in your life, your work, and your relationships.The Chakra Map that he discovered is a core feature of his inspiring and illuminating book The Gift ofthe Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and LivingThrough the Heart. His work can open the way for an entirely new internal paradigm that activates livingfrom your heart.

What are the possibilities for a grounded spirituality, in the aftermath of colonisation? Indigenous theologian Garry Deverell has lived the search for a spirituality that connects land and body. He joins Meredith Lake to discuss ritual, reconnection and reconciliation.

Today's episode is a really special one! My friend Aleyah Swan joined us today to talk about something I've wanted to talk about for a long time! The title of this podcast has the word ‘spirit' in it because spirituality is a huge part of what I have always done in my life. I realized we are spiritual and having a human experience, however, when I joined many spiritual groups, I realized there were many dogmatic ideas of what it means to be spiritual. I believe this is why there is hesitancy around incorporating spirituality into our lives! Spirituality is something that you define for yourself, but in my opinion not something you can run away from. I actually found that embracing it has made my life much easier! I wanted to have Aleyah on the show because she made a huge impact on my life by introducing me to my sacred support. She also helps many entrepreneurs incorporate spirituality into their business! In addition, she has gone through her own personal tragedy losing a home to fire and tells us how spirituality helped her stay out of victim mode and find gratitude to move forward in her life.  If you are feeling challenged or blocked or are interested in moving through challenges with ease, this episode is for you! During this episode we discuss: Spirituality is an individual process; it will always come to you in a language you understand The spiritual community was more dogmatic than I thought; how do you navigate that? ‘There's no way not to be spiritual' - we are spiritual beings! Generally, those with a spiritual practice moved through 2020 in a more centered way Personalized health care is needed! Everyone's experiences are unique and we need providers who can meet these needs Mirroring - the next lesson for you to learn will be reflected back to you in people, places or things. Physical health issues can be the gateway to spirituality  Going through the dark night of the soul pain without bypassing allows for the warrior to come through. With gentleness and softness  If you feel exhausted all of the time and like you aren't making progress, you have to ask yourself why? Transgenerational patterns are real and energy work is the secret to working through them What you feel on the inside is what you experience physically; we both give real life examples Internal Family Systems is a model that can help you generate compassion for yourself  Aleyah takes us through the tragedy she experienced when her house burnt down; her biggest challenge was learning to receive.  How you can lean into gratitude and avoid victim mindset during a tragedy  Aleyah's Bio: With over 20 years of energy healing experience, Aleyah's obsessed with helping entrepreneurs integrate their sacred superpowers into their everyday life and business. Through providing grounded spiritual guidance and connection to their own sacred support team, she helps digital CEO's achieve a tangible, and self-affirming sense of worthiness, support, and purpose.  She believes that as an entrepreneur, your business is a profound and direct extension of your heart, and that what you're doing matters.

In this episode, Susanne discusses how she believes that the new shift in Spirituality is to a place of roundedness in both the masculine and the feminine.

How do we get the right balance between spiritual connection, and being grounded and actively engaged with the world?

Hey gurus got issues too. Brendan talks with the very insightful and funny Jeff Brown, coach, speaker and author of Grounded Spirituality. The two discuss why Jeff thinks most of today's spiritual leaders are full of sh*t, the most effective tool to release past trauma, the best ways to get the anger out, (good news it involves a baseball bat), why if you keep seeking you'll never get anywhere, and what it's like getting an oracle reading from Stormy Daniels. 

The great sages taught that the answers to healing, spiritual evolution, elevated consciousness, and living a happy and fulfilled life are inside of us. But how exactly do we tap into that?Our guest, Jonathan Goldman can answer these questions. As one of the first acupuncturist in the United States and with over four decades of working with energy medicine, Jonathan has mapped where emotions, beliefs, and spiritual qualities operate in the energetic layers within and around the human body. This has allowed him to create a very unique form of healing.Jonathan is the author of Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart. He is the founder of the Essential Light Institute, which is dedicated to teaching self-transformation and energy healing through direct relationship with the living force of Light.Tune in for this philosophical conversation at TalkRadio.nyc or watch the Facebook Livestream by clicking here.Show NotesSegment 1Dr. G starts tonight's episode off reminding listeners about the show's mission and introducing tonight's guest, acupuncturist Jonathan Goldman. Judi reads a quote of Jonathan's and lists more of his qualifications. Jonathan talks about seeing the body as a gift rather than a prison, sharing his journey of healing, working through his pain. By accepting this pain, he found light and pleasure on the other side. This is when he realized there are layers to the body, and we are multidimensional beings. Jonathan discusses disidentification being the first step to healing. After disidentifying, we have choices of how to move forward and become, as Jonathan says, the commander of the vehicle. Pain is contraction, the universe expands and contracts, without pain, there is no pleasure. Suffering though, is the ignorance to confront or accept pain. He talks about a journey he had 12 years into his acupuncture career that opened his healing channel. He found weird things happening in his practice, with a feeling in his hands translating to healed patients without him doing much. He had a feeling of not knowing who he was anymore, this wasn't his feeling though, it was his patients. This started a process over the next 15 years, of him understanding the layers of the chakra. This led to him creating a chakra map. Jonathan describes chakras as the energies in the center of each layer of our being, with each one having a responsibility for one of the more important aspects of our lives.Segment 2Coming back from the break, Judi asks Jonathan to discuss his chakra map. He talks about grounding, connecting our energies to those of the earth, and how the energy moves through the chakras. He compares the second chakra to a perpetual two year old, describing how it does what it wants to do. In making us want to fit in, civilization often tries to restrict the second chakra, which often leads to depression. There are two sides to each chakra, the front and the back. The energy is stored in the back and released through the front. He moves on to discuss finding the restricted chakras in patients. He describes a restriction in the throat chakra, which speaks truth. Dr. G asks about whether an infant in the womb can be affected by the mother's chakras. Jonathan thinks this is definitely possible. He talks about cultivating gratitude, opening his throat chakra, making him more receptive to love and speak more truth.Segment 3Next they move on to the emotional bodies of the chakras. Each chakra has an emotional body, and they are meant to constantly be in movement. Jonathan describes the central qualities of some chakras and how they change depending on whether a chakra is expanding or contracting. He describes his process of healing, clearing energy out to find the source of the problem. He talks about the heart chakra and opening it in order to feel compassion. Compassion is a vibration of neutrality that allows everything. Empathy on the other hand links to those around you. While empathy can burn out, compassion cannot. Once open, we can more easily resonate through love. Resonance and magnetism are two laws of the universe, with magnetism pushing away likes and resonance attracting them. Jonathan talks about being a healer in order to participate in miracles. He moves on to discuss going through things in order to heal, providing an anecdote. In healing we need to commit at some point rather than resisting. Even after committing, we need to keep saying yes. Compassion tells us that we will heal and at our own pace.Segment 4Coming into the final segment Jonathan talks about light, and how it is real rather than a metaphor. It has nothing to do with religion or spiritual path, it is available to all of us. Reaching this light is done through prayer, meditation, and many other ways. As he mentioned before, we are supposed to feel pain, but even in contractions, there can still be light. Jonathan brings up a story of the Dalai Lama keeping his hands in front of his chest, where faith rests. Judi asks Jonathan to share resources where listeners can reach him or find his material. Judi asks Jonathan to discuss something he wrote about in his book, the longest four inches in the universe. This is the distance between the third chakra and the heart. He discusses what this distance means, and the differences between this chakra and the heart. He talks about us being invited or dragged through these four inches to live through the heart. Jonathan's takeaway for the audience is that you are much more magnificent than you see yourself to be. Dr. G asks Jonathan to end tonight's episode in prayer.

She was also an aide on a locked psych ward, a tenured college teacher, and a furniture builder. She was extremely grateful for the chance to go to college (not a given)–and she attended the University of Colorado (Classics/Philosophy), the University of New Mexico (Lit), and the Iowa Writers' Workshop, (Fiction).

Lisa and Andrea are joined by Jonathan Goldman, M.Ac. to talk about his book The Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart. Enjoy this rich discussion covering some of what is below. The work that Goldman does and teaches clears lifelong depression, trauma, fears, anxieties, resentments, shame, self-judgment, relationship dysfunction, scarcity thinking, spiritual disconnection, and much more. Goldman's goal is to lead you to become "the commander of your own vehicle." He teaches you the art of inner alignment --The Divine Tactics -- to be empowered to live your life informed by self-knowledge and self-actualization. You become your own teacher by having access to your heart, your intuition, and the inspiration of Light. This work is not defined by ideology or religious dogma. It is based on the reality of Light and the inherent qualities present in all humans. An example: compassion is a universal force. It lives in a specific location in your heart chakra. It is built into your original equipment. It has nothing necessarily to do with religion. It is not the same thing as empathy. The embodiment of compassion is the key to healing, energetic protection, and inner peace. This is something anybody can learn. This knowledge has come to Goldman through a fascinating journey that has led him to become one of the first practitioners of acupuncture in the United States, to the depth of the Amazon rainforest of Brazil, and to teaching and guiding people in their spiritual transformation all over the world. He learned his craft through forty years of clinical practice and multiple pieces of training in various healing arts. Under the guidance of a leading Bioenergetic practitioner and spiritual teacher, he experienced a consciousness-awakening journey to Brazil that opened his mediumistic gifts and made him available to multi-dimensional influences. This initially manifested when he was guided where to put needles in patients that were not in keeping with traditional teachings-and he began to get phenomenal results! Tracking the diagrams of needle placement, enabled him to begin charting the Human Energy Vehicle. From that point forward, Goldman began receiving what became The Chakra Map, Transformational Energy Healing, and The Divine Tactics. His own journey of personal healing and spiritual evolution has paralleled the knowledge that he has received and taught to thousands.Goldman is one of the leading educators on the embodiment of Light and its use in healing and for spiritual illumination. The Essential Light Institute, which he co-founded in 2008, is dedicated to teaching the arts of self-transformation and energy healing through a direct relationship with the living force of Light. In his book The Gift of the Body: A Multi-Dimensional Guide to Energy, Anatomy, Grounded Spirituality and Living Through the Heart he describes it as "an experiential, practical, transformational manual for the adventure school of your life." Goldman is also one of the premier experts and leaders in the United States in the ceremonial use of plant medicine. He led the decade-long campaign that successfully freed the Santo Daime for spiritual practice in the U.S.

By popular demand I've decided to re-post the Finding Hope episode where I spoke with best-selling author and teacher Jeff Brown! Jeff's life work is bringing people back into their bodies and their hearts to the authentic self. In our candid (and lively) conversation Jeff said “We must dive into our bodies and FEEL the feelings. Getting inside the heart is essential to finding our path in the world. I believe this path is encoded in us and to find it we have to excavate and clear the emotional armor that is held in our body.” Counselor Mandy and Jeff speak candidly about “patriarchal spirituality” and other movements that he feels are harmful rather than helpful. He offers tools for getting to our authentic selves, as well as hope for where we are today in light of world affairs. Jeff is the author of 6 best-selling books: Soul-shaping, Ascending with Both Feet on the Ground, Love It Forward, An Uncommon Bond, Spiritual Graffiti and Grounded Spirituality. He is also the founder of the Soul-shaping Institute and Enrealment Press.

In this courageous book "Grounded Spirituality" Jeff takes us on the spiritual ride of a lifetime. The book opens with the author's compelling journey through a variety of spiritual approaches. Through decades of dedicated exploration and discernment, Brown exposes the transcendent notions of spirituality that limit our human experience. In his fiercely authentic, no-holds-barred style, Brown reveals that what we view as 'spiritual' is often devoid of the gift that makes us most alive--our precious and unique selfhood. He demonstrates that true spirituality is a whole-being awakening, one that heartfully embraces our entire human experience: our feelings, our stories, our bodies, our relationships with others, and the earth that houses us. Brown then engages in a riveting dialogue with a fictitious spiritual seeker named Michael. Their conversations unfurl in warmth and humor, threaded with cutting truth and inspiring realization. Hands-on exercises throughout provide a direct experience of a vital new model. In Grounded Spirituality, the author lays down the tracks for an embodied way of being--one that leaves us 'enrealed, ' integrated, and purposeful. Not awakened--but awakening. Not transcending our humanness--but finding meaning and spirituality within it, right in the heart of our imperfect daily lives. At long last, we can lay down our weary heads, burdened by the impossibility of transcending our human experience. Back to our roots, back into our bodies, back into all that makes us magnificently human. Home at last... “If you want to live a more spiritual life, live a more human life. Be more truly, fiercely, heartfully human.” -Jeff Brown - - - - -SUPPORT THIS PODCAST & VLOG- - - - - ► Become A Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv_MsYFGi-RHrNajHqqUJ6A/join ► Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/thenakedguruexperiencepodcast ► TIP JAR: paypal.me/thenakedguru - - - - - WEBSITE, SOCIAL & OTHER PROJECTS- - - - - ► Website: https://www.thenakedguruexperience.com ► Sharing Circles: https://www.rememebringourself.com ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thenakedguruexperience ► Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/672595846495678/ - - - - - LINKS - - - - - ► More about Jeff: https://jeffbrown.co --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thenakedguruexperience/support

We kick off our 2ndSeason of Finding Hope with best-selling author and teacher Jeff Brown. Jeff's life work is bringing people back into their bodies and their hearts to the authentic self. “We must dive into our bodies and FEEL the feelings. Getting inside the heart is essential to finding our path in the world. I believe this path is encoded in us and to find it we have to excavate and clear the emotional armor that is held in our body” says Brown. Counselor Mandy and Jeff speak candidly about “patriarchal spirituality” and other movements that he feels are harmful rather than helpful. He offers tools for getting to our authentic selves, as well as hope for where we are today in light of world affairs. Jeff is the author of 6 best-selling books: Soul-shaping, Ascending with Both Feet on the Ground, Love It Forward, An Uncommon Bond, Spiritual Graffiti and Grounded Spirituality. He is also the founder of the Soul-shaping Institute and Enrealment Press. You can connect with his work at jeffbrown.co and soulshapinginstitute.com.

Believe it or not, you have a sacred purpose. There's a reason for you being on earth right now. In fact, we all have a sacred purpose for our lives. In this episode, I brought on Jeff Brown, an author and Enrealment Activist. Jeff and I discuss the idea of spiritual bypassing and how it differs from having a healthy spirituality. He shares his ideas about what a conscious capitalist society would look like and his thoughts on the future of patriarchal constructs. Jeff talks about his book, Grounded Spirituality. He also talks about how to move toward your sacred purpose and how men and women experience spiritual bypassing differently. About Jeff Brown: A former criminal lawyer and psychotherapist, Jeff Brown is the author of 6 popular books: Soulshaping, Ascending with Both Feet on the Ground, Love It Forward, An Uncommon Bond, Spiritual Graffiti and Grounded Spirituality. He is also the producer and primary journeyer in the award-winning spiritual documentary, Karmageddon, which also stars Ram Dass, Seane Corn, Deva Premal and Miten. After writing a series of inspirations for ABC'S ‘Good Morning America' in 2010, and appearing on Fox News.com and dozens of radio shows, Brown wrote the viral blog ‘Apologies to the Divine Feminine (from a warrior in transition)' that autumn, catapulting him to a greater degree of notoriety, particularly in social media. Jeff's new terms and short writings became a phenomenon some years ago, and continue to be shared by seekers and growers worldwide. In April, 2018, Jeff was invited to Ottawa by Sophie Grégoire Trudeau–gender equality activist and the wife of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau–to film a conversation about emotional healing and inclusivity. She had been sharing Jeff's words in speeches and social media posts for some time. Excerpts from that powerful dialogue are viewable on Sophie's Facebook and Instagram pages. Jeff is also the founder of Soulshaping Institute and Enrealment Press.

A former criminal lawyer and psychotherapist, Jeff Brown is an author of multiple books and has been featured on Good Morning America, Fox News, ABC, CBS, and NPR. He is the owner of Enrealment Press, a grassroots publishing house determined to bring grounded, heartfelt creations to the world, and founder of Soulshaping Institute, an online center for authentic transformation. His newest book, Grounded Spirituality, lays the foundation for a new model, detailing the challenges he faced, and the countless steps of overcoming. Its intention is to support us in our efforts to embody all that we are, not to bypass our humanness, but to celebrate it, and not to find enlightenment independent of the self, but to find enrealment deep within it.

I’ve been eyeing Jeff Brown on social media for quite some time now. Each of his poignant pieces would reverberate through me with a powerful ,”Yes, Amen, and Hallelujah!” Jeff has a powerful way of articulating the nuances and intricacies of grounded spirituality and love. His teachings are direct and deep, calling out the BS and painful shortcomings of new age culture and spiritual relationships.  Given my history with spiritual gaslighting and my passion for the realness, I knew Jeff was the perfect first guest for Honey in the Heart!  Jeff covers a lot of ground in this episode, particularly the importance of “Enrealment” in relationship. If you are craving some insights and guidance on how to have a thriving relationship - to yourself, god, and your partner - that includes ALL of yourself (not just the love and light), this is an episode you don’t want to miss!   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSSED:    What the term “Enrealment” means in both intangible and tangible terms. How typical spiritual constructs are based on patriarchal systems and bypassing The danger and dysfunction of “Twin Flames” How gurus can get away with terrible behavior, misconduct, and painful personal lives The importance of being in your physical and emotional body to have a healthy, nontoxic relationships How relationships help us excavate our trauma and past pain Steps to get grounded if you notice you’re dissociated and bypassing in your relationship Why support is essential to understanding how relationships can be a portal to divinity  How yoga is often used for spiritual bypassing and dissociation from the f*cked up humanness The difference between soulmates and woundmates - and why it’s important to tell the difference Qualities essential to have a relationship based on grounded spirituality / enrealment How tantra and sex can be used to escape and disassociate  Why suicides are happening more and more in new age communities What’s required to actually have a grounded love experience Connect with Jeff: Website: https://jeffbrown.co/ Instagram: @jeffbrownsoulshaping Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SOULSHAPING/   Become an Insider: Sign Up to Receive Monthly Love Letters from Mackenzie https://www.kenzieeason.com/lovelettersignup   Subscribe to the Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/honey-in-the-heart-relationships-emotions-intimacy/id1291634385   About Jeff Brown: A former criminal lawyer and psychotherapist, Jeff Brown is the author of 6 popular books: Soulshaping, Ascending with Both Feet on the Ground, Love It Forward, An Uncommon Bond, Spiritual Graffiti and Grounded Spirituality.

We cannot separate our spiritual selves from our physical. Both are equally important if you want to live a balanced life. In fact, it is impossible for us to manifest what we deeply desire in life if we're too much on one side. Too much on the spiritual side, we can't bring the energy into the world to create something tangible, too much on the physical side, we are disconnected from flow and ease. Are you. ready to take a deep dive into this topic? Then join me in this week's episode where we talk about all things grounded spirituality. Get ready to leave feeling motivated and ready to take action! See you on the inside. :) xoxo Codi Ann Smith Mentor|Teacher|Speaker Leave a review!

Jeff Brown is the author of the book Grounded Spirituality, which calls out and critically reviews ungrounded spiritualities, and presents a new model of authentic humanness, offering us a more integrated, embodied, and heartfelt path going forward. We can see the misuse of power in the highest levels of leadership — in politics, in Hollywood, and even in spiritual communities. Jeff has joined me today to explore the reasons that too many of us don’t feel empowered to speak up against the misuse of power. He encourages the process that we must work through to begin on the path toward healing. This is a process that I have been very engaged in over the last year, and I feel very passionate about it. The time for speaking out is now and I want to endow you with the words and confidence that you need to call up and call out unacceptable behaviors wherever you might see them. Speaking up encourages accountability so these patterns stop and we can heal vs hurt. This is what our world needs today.   Key Takeaways: [:01] Carley Hauck shares the need to call out intolerable behaviors in leadership, what is at the root of not speaking up, and choosing a different path. She is joined by author and activist Jeff Brown. [4:05] Jeff Brown shares the events and spiritual understanding that led him to write Grounded Spirituality. [7:54] Jeff defines patriarchal spirituality as the man-created and -dominated way that some people embody enlightenment and rationalize a lack of integrity. [11:22] Understanding the relationship between the new cage community and grounded spirituality as it best serves an enlightened individual. [17:12] Carley and Jeff both share some of the grounded spirituality practices that have led them to greater mindfulness. [20:10] The Soulshaping Facebook group and why we need to have safe places for conversations about unconscious leaders and spiritual communities that are not acting with integrity. [25:25] Understanding the dark side of communities that are not acting in integrity, including two California organizations, and Carley’s warning to avoid involvement with them. [30:00] Jeff shares the human psychology and patriarchal spirituality factors that play a role in remaining subject to an abusive leader, and why we have to question their teachings. [37:30] Anger and forgiveness, the danger of forgiving injustices too quickly, and the need for working through anger rather than bypassing it. [43:10] Jeff shares a call to action — to embrace the idea that repressed emotions are unactualized spiritual lessons, and that seeking healing is the highest form of spiritual practice and offers recommendations to begin healing. [48:03] Carley leads listeners through the purpose and the step-by-step process of calling out and calling up, including questions and dialogue examples that will enable you to find the strength to speak up.   Resources: Living Well Awake Carley Hauck on Instagram Carley Hauck on LinkedIn Lead From Light Daily Rituals Breakthrough at Living Well Awake Brave Exchanges: Workshop #1 Healing the Gender Divide   Today’s Guest Jeff Brown Soulshaping Institute Soulshaping Facebook Group Grounded Spirituality by Jeff Brown   Jeff’s Recommendations Somatic Experiencing Tension, Stress, and Trauma Release Bioenergetic Therapy Core Energenetics   Links to News Articles “The survivor who broke the Shambhala sexual assault story” “No Accountability for Interchange Counseling Institute Founder Steve Bearman” “Harvey Weinstein found guilty of rape at New York Trial”

My guest today aligns with my mission for authenticity and Being Human, Jeff Brown. Born in Toronto, Canada, Jeff Brown did all the things he was supposed to do to become successful in the eyes of the world. He was on the Dean's Honor List as an undergraduate. He won the Law and Medicine prize in law school. He apprenticed with top criminal lawyer Eddie Greenspan. It had been Brown's lifelong dream to practice criminal law and search for the truth in the courtroom. But then, on the verge of opening a law practice, he heard a little voice inside telling him to stop, just stop. With great difficulty, he honored this voice and began a heartfelt quest for the truth that lived within him. Although he didn't realize it at the time, Brown was actually questing for his innate image, the essential being that he came into this lifetime to embody. He was searching for his authentic face. As part of his journey, Brown surrendered to his confusion and explored many possible paths. He studied Bioenergetics and did session work with co-founder Alexander Lowen. He practiced as a body-centered psychotherapist. He completed an MA in Psychology at Saybrook Graduate School in San Francisco and co-founded the Open Heart Gang, a benevolent gang with a heartfelt intention. He started his own business and became a successful entrepreneur. In this episode we discuss: Why the inner work is the most important work that he's done  Is spiritual bypassing a necessary part of the process?  Why self-avoidance masquerading as "enlightenment" is causing people to commit suicide  Say hi on socials!

Author Filmmaker Jeff Brown, discusses his latest book, Grounded Spirituality where he dispels common rhetoric for a more realized approach of moving through the body and into the emotions, to overcome trauma and process more fully to evolve ourselves. Jeff credits Alexander Lowen -co founder of Bioenergetic Analysis for the beneficial results of effective processing. His dialogue with Michael, a character in the book, show how often , a seeker, can get swept up into the ideologies and dogma that is regurgitated throughout the spirituality system. The raw, unbridled truth, depth, and awareness that Jeff gifts us in Grounded Spirituality, can only be said , is long overdue, a welcome respite in a sea of posers, and a hearty cheer of comeuppance the spirituality community deserves to embrace in its transparency and seeming authenticity. It's rich in truth, insight, humor and clarity...an invaluable read. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lisa-zimmer/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lisa-zimmer/support

How can we stay grounded on our spiritual journey? In this episode Amisha is in conversation with author, teacher, Enrealment Activist and Grounded Spiritualist Jeff Brown. Together they discuss the dangers of dissociative spiritual practices, as well as the cultures and individuals that encourage these practises for individuals carrying unresolved trauma. Jeff shares stories of his own spiritual journey and the experiences that led him to his current practises of embodiment, ‘enrealment' and integration.He explains why embodied psychotherapy holds our greatest hope for healing and self realisation, how he made a spiritual practice of betting on horses at the races, and the myriad problems with patriarchal spirituality. Together Amisha and Jeff discuss some of the ways we dissociate and absent ourselves in the name of becoming present, and how we can learn instead to hold on to the threads of ever more diverse realities.

This is your host Neil Sattin.  Neil Sattin  It's always a thrill to get a return visit from a particularly awesome guest. And today is going to be one of those days. Here to talk about the, his new book "Grounded Spirituality," is Jeff Brown, who is also the author of "Soulshaping," and "An Uncommon Bond," and in fact we had him here on Relationship Alive, I guess it was probably about a year and a half ago, maybe, to talk about those two books. And if you're curious to hear that episode you can visit Neil-Sattin-dot-com-slash-soul-shaping. All one word. And today, we're going to talk about this approach to living a spiritual life that allows us to be fully grounded in who we are as humans in terms of our unique existence on this planet right now. I'm not going to try to describe the whole thing that's what I'm here to talk to Jeff Brown for. However I just want to say that for me personally this book came at a really challenged time when I've been going through a lot in my own life and I found some of the exercises in this book to be really helpful. And some of the viewpoints represented to help dispel some of the myths that I've been carrying around with me about what it means to be a spiritual being in a human body. And and helped me integrate in a in a new way that's been really helpful and transformative in terms of my day to day life right now. So I found the book to be really inspiring and that's why I'm so excited to be sharing it with you along with Jeff Brown it's auth, it's author.  Neil Sattin  So if you want to download a transcript of today's conversation, which promises to be quite far reaching, then I encourage you to do so at Neil-Sattin-dot-com-slash-grounded, as in "Grounded Spirituality," not as in your grounded for being a bad human. And you can always text to the word Passion to the number 3-3-4-4-4 and follow the instructions to also get access to the transcripts and show notes for today's conversation. I think that's it for starters. So Jeff Brown, welcome back to Relationship Alive.  Jeff Brown  Great to be with you Neil. It's good to be here.  Neil Sattin  We're here to talk about "Grounded Spirituality," and I gave my off the cuff definition in the intro but I'm wondering if you might be able to give us a quick synopsis of what you mean by a "grounded spirituality," and maybe contrast that with what people tend to talk about when they're talking about spirituality and why this distinction is so important for you? Jeff Brown  So let me just read from the book the grounded spirituality definition then go into the second part of your question.  Neil Sattin  Sure.  Jeff Brown  "Grounded spirituality is an all encompassing experience of spirituality that is rooted in and thread throughout all aspects of our humanity and earthly experience. We begin and end our spiritual quest within the ground of our being, our embodied humanness, as both interpreter of experience and as our individuated portal to divinity we don't look outside of our human form for spirituality we look deeper with a name and form, cultivating a more refined understanding of the divine reflection that exists right in the heart of our selfhood. We honor its sacred qualities and transformative properties celebrating it as the perfectly constructed laboratory of expansion that it is. With our feet rooted firmly on Mother Earth and in daily life, we become grounded in reality in all its identifiable forms. We expand outward and inward from there. In essence grounded and spirituality are synonyms. They both mean reality. The more deeply grounded you are in your body and selfhood, the more fully you are here. The more fully you are here, the more spiritual your experience. It's from the depths of your being that you have the greatest access to the everything."  Jeff Brown  So for me you know I mean, my journey really began in the psychotherapeutic process. I didn't really have any idea of this thing called spirituality so I really... And, and as I went through that process and moved from more of a talk therapy model to working with Al Lowen and doing other somatic psychotherapy techniques, I found that the more deeply I opened and released the more expanded my vista. I felt like at the end of sessions or at the end of holotropic breathwork, I felt completely and deeply here in a unity consciousness field. And, but it happened through my body and it happened through the psycho emotional release. It didn't happen through anything separate from or distinct from my day to day experience. It was all coming through and threaded through my humanness. So I think I carry that forward and then began to explore this thing called spirituality and it began really with the love experience I wrote about in "An Uncommon Bond," and coming into a unified field or what I called the Unified Field from the love experience again through my heart and through my body through my being and then I began to encounter people like Bhagavan Das, and made Karmageddon and all kinds of other people in social media that were defining spirituality in a way that seemed to be devoid of humanness. I mean, it seemed to really be about something called transcendence. Something about finding selfhood finding spirituality independent of self, body, ego, feelings, stories -- everything about my humanness, everything difficult and uncomfortable was dissed. And spirituality was some awakened consciousness and an absolute consciousness field outside of my localized experience. That wasn't where I found it. I found it inside of my localized experience and so I, you know, as I've continued to work in the area and write in the area and develop ideas in the area, I began to realize that there's this thing called patriarchal spirituality. There is this thing I call the "new cage movement" there's this whole industry, industrial notion of spirituality that people are economically dependent on that tries to set off our humanness from our spirituality and that's just simply has not been my experience, and I feel as though that's one of the reasons why our species is in trouble because this way as in many other ways we continue to dissociated from our humanness in quest of something outside of it without understanding that the true integration happens has to happen right in the heart of it.  Neil Sattin  I love that. And I'm thinking now of like the first place that I want to go with this, is, uh, that notion of transcendence and how helpful it has been for people to explore that to, to explore witness consciousness and, to in some senses let's just use the phrase rise above their, the drama and the chaos of human existence in order to get some perspective some peace. And your book is written as a dialogue between yourself and this character named Michael who is really rooted in this sense of spiritual journey that's all about transcending. Transcending reality or being far enough above it that you're you're not drowning in the chaos of it. And I think that's why it's so alluring to people because it, it's can feel easy to drown in the chaos of, of life and emotions and circumstances. So. Um.And you of course talk about Eckhart Tolle as a great example of someone who is you know the figurehead in some respects of the modern western transcendence movement. And so I'm wondering for you, where's the value in learning this witness consciousness and being able to take perspective vs. living there? Jeff Brown  So the simple way I put it is that detachment is a tool. It's not a life. So for me... And transcendence can be defined you know, definitional stuff is very important and we won't go too far into it here. But you know what one person calls "transcendence," another person call something else. So the whole language of rising above being heightened all of that for me is part of the patriarchal bypass movement. That's not to say that being able to pull up and out and look at your localized self through various meditative and other techniques gain perspective on your habitual range of emotion, on the stories you tell yourself, and the way you move through the world on the various forms of anxiety that operate within you, is a good thing. It helped me enormously to be able to pull out of my very localized experience of Jeff Brown, from that super crazy childhood, and begin to witness myself and recognize and excavate parts of me that I didn't have access to in my habitual way of moving through the world. I have no issue with it. If Tolle  had written, "Power of Now," a book that I call the "power of self-avoidance." If if Tolle had written that book and he had said, "Look, I..." As he said in the beginning I think he said, he was suicidal and very troubled. If he'd said, "Look, I had all kinds of problems. And one morning I woke up and I developed, had developed some kind of a technique or access to a particular consciousness that gave me access to my material." Don't call it a pain body, don't talk about it like you're talking about a car part, acknowledge your tender woundedness, and then he said, "And I spent a lot of time out there getting perspective on where I'd been. Understanding my ancestral context, understanding how this painful material wove its way through my ways of being, and then I developed techniques for coming back down into that material," as though the material is in fact quite true and quite real and no illusion, no bashing of the ego, no bashing of the self, no bashing of the feelings, no bashing of emotions, no bashing of anything human. Acknowledging it, recognizing it, and understand that you needed to bring another consciousness into it in order to find the balance. The weave. The Holy Holy. That you need to move through the world with a connection to a more unified field and a profound and deep and worked through awareness of the localized self. If he had said that, I got no problem with that book. But he didn't.  He called that a, what'd he call it "a guide for enlightenment" or something in this, in the sub header? When you present the detachment or that as something that is the end of the story essentially to me that's just dissociative and that's not going to serve this humanity. We know why people want to do it. They're uncomfortable here. It's painful here. So they use the meditation as a drug or they use witnessing consciousness as a drug, and they convinced themselves they've gone to that superior place because they're numbing and detaching from all that material that's stirring up inside of them. It's still in there. It still shows up in their personal life. None of these teachers tell you about their personal lives, but you find out things about a lot of spiritual teachers' personal lives and you realize that this is an industry and they're telling you a story about their lives that isn't the whole story. Their stuff is still activated, their stuff is still working on them. They have not resolved work through all those pieces. And so for me what we need to do is develop a spirituality that acknowledges the wisdom and brings techniques to bear on people to be able to pull up and out, to pull back and look at themselves, to do the witnessing consciousness trip, to have a taste of something called "unity consciousness," and then to come back down into the body with that wisdom and find the weave between transcendence and imminence. That for me is the truest human experience.  Neil Sattin  So let's contrast that with maybe some of your experience around the more human material. So when we come back in and write about how much is tends to be locked in the body and we've had right, Peter Levine on the show several times so that's that's I think, hopefully a level of discourse that listeners are familiar with, this idea that we're storing trauma in our body and if we're not dealing with it, then we're gonna have to stay in this dissociated state in order to feel like we're somehow coping, and I could, I could see like the freedom the illusion of freedom in that for people because we can't live there, there's that reality of your back in your, within your human form and there's still some shit to work through.  Jeff Brown  Absolutely. It's, I mean trauma. It's encoded in the body. Its stored in the body. It's in the body. So I knew this in a very palpable way, when I shifted from being a talk therapy client to being a body centered psychotherapy client, and I would sit with Alexander Lowen for who was the co-founder of Bio and I would sit and talk for 15 minutes with him and he'd just be looking at my body and he'd be engaging my mind because he knew I needed that to feel safe, and I knew what he was doing but I needed to do it. And then he would say, "All right, you ready to work? You ready to get to work?" And so to get undressed, so I get into my underwear, my shorts whatever I would do and he would start working me, in the body, grounding me in the body, going over the stool, tantruming, kicking, and all of a sudden I would have access to a completely different experience of reality than my waking consciousness. It was painful. It was horrifying. There were memories that I had no conscious connection to in my day to day life, and understandably, I had to survive and get through my life. I couldn't be in touch with all that trauma but my experience of deep inside of my body was radically and remarkably different than who I thought I was. And I had tried going up and out I had been around the bypass movement I had attempted to be a bypasser. I would love to be a bypasser. But I just can't be a bypasser, it's just not, it, it's not in the way that I'm organized internally. But you know at the same time I was living kind of in between. I wasn't a bypasser but I wasn't going deep into the caverns of my own body consciousness. So Lowen, by going to Lowen, manifesting Lowen, what, however we characterize it, I was forced to go back down into that material. I chose to go back to into that material and and then I began to understand this deep and profound connection between this thing we could call imminence, the localized the day to day, the mundane whatever we call it and this thing called transcendence or unity consciousness field or the non-dual world, and then I would encounter it the spiritual world, they were talking about non duality and they all seem flatlined. They talk like automatons, they were they were addicted to meditation, you know, TM-ers, I knew so many TM-ers, who were like yogic flying and their personal lives were utterly insane, you know, there was no bridge. So I began to understand that my body was the bridge. My body is the bridge and it's the way that I try to make sense of how I can hold all of these threads of consciousness at the same time. And so. And Peter Levine is one of the great brilliant pioneers, and I noted him in the book. So his John Perocco, so is Wilhelm Reich. So is, you know, David Berceli is doing great work. Lowen, of course, did utterly brilliant work these people to me are the true spiritual teachers, because I define spirituality as reality, Neil. So the one who guides us or supports us in a movement towards being in touch with all threads of reality which must begin within the self it has to begin within the self, itself. To me those are the true spiritual teachers, not the ones who master a singular thread of consciousness master witnesses master meditators masters at the art of our premature forgiveness. There's a million of them out there calling themselves spiritual teachers to me there's nothing spiritual about them because all they've done is perfected one thread and they're not able to function within all of the threads of the human experience.  Neil Sattin  That's one thing that's so appealing to me about your, your writing in "Grounded Spirituality," is this way that you continue speaking to "integrating." Integrating the spiritual awareness, integrating what's happening within your body, integrating your emotional awareness, integrating your intuition so that it it all becomes part of you as an alive, dynamic being. And what I've seen, what I've witnessed, it feels kind of funny to use that word, with lots of my clients who have been going through this sort of thing is that when people are totally focused on the meditative path, it actually creates a lot of challenges in relationship, because there's all that unconscious material that's still running them in the ways that they interact with each other or conversely they're they're kind of not really interacting with each other. They're, they're like two dissociated beings, or more likely one dissociated being, and another, who's like trying to call them back and then both of them of course have their work to do in order to to arrive at this place of being more integrated and unfolding in that way because I think it's it's not a static place, right? It's this dynamic place where you continually arrive again and again.  Neil Sattin  Absolutely. I mean this is why the mindfulness revolution is dangerous. This is why the, you know, the society wide industry now really related to meditation is dangerous. I mean I get that meditation can be a wonderful technique for connecting to the self for pulling away from the localized material for periods of time, to getting a break from what it means to be a human being, you know, or at least to get a break from some aspect of that. But the problem is again, if it's not also coupled with some kind of re entry process and reintegration process, it's like we're moving towards inclusivity with respect to gender, with respect to sexuality, certainly with respect to race, you know, ethnicity, all kinds of ways. But I believe because the spiritual community is the one area in society where nobody's allowed to critically review it. It's amazing how well, how effective patriarchal spirituality in its origins has been at preventing us from deconstructing. You just got to go on my Facebook wall, when I put up a post where I'm critically reviewing a teaching, and how many conscious people even, really people who've really done work on themselves say, "Oh my God. How can you do that. You have no right to critique that person's teaching. You have no right to critique that experience." They're OK if we critique politics. They're OK if we deconstruct legal decisions. They're OK with us critically reviewing religion, but not spirituality. And this is the biggest part of the problem. You know if we're going to move in the direction of an inclusive world we have to allow for the critical review of everything that is not inclusive and that really includes spirituality because spirituality is growing in popularity, religion is becoming less popular worldwide. And if we keep moving in the direction of this protectorate this nonsense about certain spirituality as being a sacred cow we're leading humanity away from inclusively while at the same time pretending that we're moving them in the direction of something more advanced it's not more advanced if it's not inclusive.  It can't be.  Neil Sattin  I suppose the one thing that really speaks to me in your writing is that sense of the imminence that you talk about being here, in the here and now, partly because I feel like that is really the place where relationship actually springs from at least springs from in its most, most healthy manifestation. You know, it's two people who are actually being fully here and alive to what's happening within themselves.  Jeff Brown  Right.  Neil Sattin  And, and. That's the thing that I think scares me a little bit about the spirituality movement is the way that it's discouraging people from actually feeling their full experience here with another human. Because that of course is what propels the growth that happens in relationship with another person.    Right. Well you know this is the trick of patriarchal spirituality to talk about the now, while leading you away from the now. That's the whole game. "The Power of Now," that's a very powerful sounding book title. "Be Here Now." Wow, what a powerful concept. But what are we really talking about we're talking about a notion of now-ness that is bereft of individuation. That is not connected to what I call the power of then, that is the true material that you're holding within your beingness unresolved, traumatic material, unresolved memories, unresolved events and experiences that completely inform your experience of the moment. Can you be fully in the moment if threads of your consciousness and threads that are somatically embedded in structure to defend and in armored ways of functioning, actually prevent you from being here in this moment? How could I be?  Neil Sattin  Right.  Jeff Brown  If I'm holding onto all kinds of stuff. And as a result of that early stuff I shallowed my breath. I pulled my head up and away from my body I tighten my hips, I rigidified my system, can I say that I'm actually in the now, in a full and complete sense? Of course not. So most of the people who are teaching now-ness are actually tricking you, they uh, or they're tricking themselves or both. They are the farthest thing from being in the moment because their version of the now is this patriarchal, cave dwelling, meditative absolute consciousness field, where you diss the self, you diss the story, you diss the ego you diss your body sometimes, you diss your feelings. All of that is an illusion, all of that is misidentified. But what's real is some version of the nowness where you're floating in the clouds scapes like we're birds or something? And you're having some experience of this absolute field of enlightenment, as though there is such a thing, as though we're not in process, as though it's not a relative experience? To me it's a big lie. So then people are going, "Wow, I get to be in the now." It gets... And the trick is we do get a little bit of relief when we get access to these techniques because they do pull us up but out of that worry-mind. Alright, I get that. But you have to look a little closer because then they go farther, they're actually taking you farther and farther away from your humanness and it's particularly dangerous for trauma survivors who really need to have a sense of intactness and integration and we're being led in the direction of dissolution of the ego, denial of the story, um, dishonoring of their feelings, all of it is unreal and untrue. And you know what,  what really got me going in this in 2013, someone I new on Facebook hung themselves after they'd bought into all these new cage and patriarchal notions of spirituality, fired their therapist and when their stuff kept haunting them in the middle of the night, they had nobody to turn to because now they had dissed all of that, and then they ended up hanging themselves and they announced it in advance, it was very clear what was coming. And I called the cops and tried to get them to go and they went and they couldn't do anything and then they hung themselves and that's when I really began to understand, and I'm understanding in my "Grounded Spirituality" discu-discussion group on Facebook. You hear these stories about how these bullshit versions of spirituality have damaged and destroyed lives, you know, and then you, you feel, I have felt compelled to find a voice that I'm not comfortable sharing in an effort to try to encourage us in the direction of a new spirituality not one that was fostered by men who couldn't admit their fucked up ness and had to go into meditation caves and convinced a village that they were the enlightened masters, that we're bringing great wisdom for twenty years sitting in a meditation cave being served by the villagers. That nonsense is ridiculous, that doesn't bring us into integration with ourselves or with humanity and now I think we need to move in the direction, as sacred activists, to bring ourselves into integration spiritually just like we're trying to bring everything else into integration.  Neil Sattin  Can you draw a distinction for me, between what, how what we're talking about is spiritual, and sacred, since you just used that word vs. just, I'm going to a body centered therapist healing my old traumas.  Jeff Brown  Mmmm, reframe the question?  Neil Sattin  So in other words. How is what you're talking about different than, like if I were able to go to see, I know Alexander Lowen is no longer with us, but if I were able to go with him, is that in and of itself a spiritual experience? Or is there something more that's part of the spirituality that you're talking about? The grounded spirituality.  Jeff Brown  So, so, I'll give you my Alexander Lowen moment because I was beginning to now to question the very beginning of, what is spirituality? So I brought it to him. I think it was in our last session I said, "So, Al, what is this thing they're talking about? About spirituality. What does this even mean?" You know, and he went: "UFFF." Like he was annoyed by the question and he said, he said, he said, "Going into your body, enlivening your body, getting your body grounded, and spirited. That's spirituality." So I think for me anything that we do that brings us into a more complete experience of reality, I would call a spiritual experience. I mean everything is spirituality. Spirituality is reality for me.  My opposition is simply to anything that's calling itself spirituality because of the way that I define it as reality. Those things that are only limiting our experience to certain elements of the human equation while dissing and disconnecting and boundarying themselves against the other part of it, to me are not actually part of the spiritual experience. So, the real spiritual teacher, if anyone is a spiritual teacher and really I say later in the book really nobody is. But you know for me somatic psychotherapists came closer to that because I felt that because they were taking me into my body and into the body of my experience and through that portal I had more access to a broader and inclusive experience of reality that felt more like a spiritual teaching than going to a non dual meeting and sitting in a Satsang, and accessing one very particular, elitist notion of what it means to be a human being while disconnecting from and dissing all the rest.  Neil Sattin  Got it. I'm wondering if you could offer one of the exercises from your book, so that our listeners can get a flavor for the kinds of experiences that we're being invited into.  Jeff Brown  Yeah, I have one called the excavation meditation. In "The truth is the gateway to the moment," chapter so I'll read that.  Neil Sattin  Okay great.  Jeff Brown  Great. Maybe you can do it, Neil. "Sit on a chair on the floor or on a cushion in whatever position feels most comfortable. While sitting do not close your eyes or focus your gaze directly ahead or above you. Instead keep your eyes opened and focus downward looking directly and with great curiosity at your body temple. Gaze at your body as you would a loved one. Begin to make contact with your breath, inviting it into awareness, feeling it move through you. First, start with gentle breathing as if you are gradually warming up. Then, invite your breath to move strongly and pointedly throughout your body infusing your body with life force, pushing into and beyond tightly held regions if you feel resistance do not hesitate or recoil. Breathe even stronger. If you feel emotions do not merely watch them as they float past. Instead immerse yourself in them deepen into feeling, inviting all held emotions and memories to be fully felt. Use the breath as an excavation tool. With your breath purposefully dig deep. Your aim is to bring repressed material to the surface, where it can be released and reintegrated. Allow this meditation to become a kind of visceral physical landscape of feeling and sensation. If there are tears, feel into and move them, to the extent that you can. If there's anger feel into and move it, to the extent that you can. If there are words or sounds express them fully. If you find yourself turning toward your habitual meditation style that includes a focus on the sensations of the body, return to the breath and intensify it. If you find yourself getting distracted by thoughts return to the breath and intensify it. If you find yourself wanting this exercise to end, return to the breath and intensify it, whatever arises return to the breath and intensify it. Your breath is your excavation tool and your guide. Now you are not just watching the body as it contracts and expands, you are fully experiencing and inhabiting the body, feelings, emotions, sounds, sensations, textures, roars, all and everything. Stay with this process until you have fully abandoned the watcher and have become a full bodied total experiencer feeling, moving, expressing and releasing as fully as you can."  Jeff Brown  So I think for me you know this notion of monkey mind was very interesting, you know, it was like, OK I've got a monkey mind and I, so, when I wrote "Soulshaping,"  I was kind of a little bit more in that version of spirituality and talked about the monkey mind, and then I began to realize that really it was a monkey heart. You know, that focusing on the mind, getting inside of the mind, witnessing the mind, having various meditative, meditative techniques within the mind itself didn't seem to get me anywhere. I was just sort of going into one part of the mind to try to calm down another part of the mind. It felt like a very safe and irrational way to go about it, because when I went down into the body when I opened the material in this this armored temple of mine, I excavated feeling. I excavated sound. I excavated the need to rage or cry or whatever came through me. At the end of those discharges, I felt as though my mind completely calmed down. So it seemed very clear to me that this notion, this patriarchal notion, that everything is happening up high, and the mind is to blame for everything, which seems to be at the root of almost all of those spiritualities, if you read them, they're always blaming the mind, seemed to me to be a very safe and convenient thing, it was like talking to Michael, it was like Michael was at a safe place, was like how women have been perpetually frustrated by men who haven't accessed their feelings -- it was all the same thing.  Jeff Brown  It was like a little boy who, who, who had pain and and didn't want anyone to know he was in pain so he, he picked up the Captain America shield and said, "I am Captain America," became a master. To me all of this mastering the mind nonsense didn't seem to get me anywhere. The only way that I ever changed anything inside of my mind really fundamentally was to change something inside of my heart and I think at the heart of patriarchal -- grounded spirituality is the belief not only that we live inside of the body, and through the body is a portal to all of it, but also that we understand the importance of clearing this emotional debris that obstructs our, our lense, that obstructs our presence. That makes it impossible-possible for us to actually be in the now. We could be in the now in a cerebral sense. We could be in the now in a tangible literal sense, but in a felt sense if we're not in the now we're not in the now at all.  Neil Sattin  So I'm sitting with all of your words and also just with my experience from being guided through that process earlier and. And it rings true for me on the show I've recently had a triumvirate of AEDP therapists. I'm not sure if you're familiar with that modality but it's, I wouldn't, it's not body centered, per say, but the whole focus in that modality is on healing early attachment wounds relationally, through, with your therapist and they, they bring this whole skill set of co-regulation that I've found really helps me access these deep places, these deep wounded places, and heal in relationship with another person.  Jeff Brown  Great.  Neil Sattin  And at the same time what that process is with those, with that therapy has helped me see is just how much I am carrying around at any given moment. And you know I'm 45 years old. I've got probably, at least 45 years of things coming at me crosswise and it's not that everything has come at me crosswise, there, I've had a lot of blessed experiences in my life as well.  Jeff Brown  Right.  Neil Sattin  But those crosswise experiences I wouldn't say that I had the proper support as a kid to really handle those big feelings and I don't think many people do.  Jeff Brown  Right.  Neil Sattin  And so the technique that you just offered with connecting with the breath and, and you know, I loved how it started and even though I read it in your book I still like, when you said, when you invited me into the exercise, first thing I did was close my eyes you know and then the next thing you said was, open your eyes, and it was just like pretty amusing for me. And, and then I felt like by going through it, it really did help me access something that's here within me now. And you know for me it was this sense of, "Oh there are some tears there." Like I said I've been going through some challenges right now, some personal discovery that that's been like really eye opening for me as I look back over the landscape of my life. And so here in this moment I was super present to some, some grief and, and it was mixed with love that invitation to be looking at my body temple, as you name it. I think how also helped me connect with not only the sadness I was feeling in that moment but also the love that I had for this vehicle, this vessel for my, for my earthly experience. So I'm, I'm really just appreciating I, I felt within me like, OK if I weren't sitting here talking to you for the purposes of having a podcast like there, there are real deep aspects of that experience that I could have gone into and that moment right.  Jeff Brown  Right. Right. And end of an end for all kinds of various reasons we, we don't you know or we can't. Even though I could probably easily hold the space for that. And as you could for me, I think. You know we our adaptations and you know survivalist tendencies and practical response, all that stuff. You know, one thing I understand, it's very simple in a way when I think about this thing called spirituality, is that everybody I've ever known as part of this human collective at this stage of human development is carrying an enormity of unresolved individual, very personal and ancestral material collected material and you know we approach this question of, What is Enlightenment? What is awakening? All these kinds of things. And it seems kind of preposterous to me, and I actually mean that with some compassion, that we try to answer these questions when we're not actually fully inhabiting our bodies. When we're walking around in these deeply armored and obstructed temples and then trying to ask the question, what has meaning? You know, what has, what is awakening. What does it mean to be an enlightened or enlightening consciousness? What is enrealment? All these things if we don't begin within clearing the emotional debris that obstructs us and affects our beliefs and our behaviors and our energies and our, and our relationships. I mean we see this all over the relationship field where at this stage of human development it's all most people can do to figure out who they are individually, let alone try to work it out with another person in the room for 30 years. I mean if you think about it it's a great miracle when two people can survive 30 years or even 30 days together given the amount of material we're carrying. And so for me and it's kind of simple. Before we go farther into the question of what is the most expanded consciousness, we need to clear the debris.  You know it's like trying to see what a room looks like when the room is completely filled with garbage, you can't. You can see the dimensions, maybe the size of it, but you can't really get a sense of that room. And I think that that's where we are. And I think that the more techniques we develop, not to pull us up and out, sure, for survival purposes. Sure, when we need to disassociate because sometimes we do, and I honor that and I've employed those techniques. I still do, I'm employing them right now in the last couple of weeks but at the same time until we start to develop takes to techniques, like Peter Levine's work, like Logan's work, that really bring us down into the truth of what we're holding not calling it a pain body like it's a car part, but acknowledging our tender woundedness and the tender woundedness of the collective. Finding ways to get into that material, to hold it safely, individually, collectively, therapeutically. Move it through so that it's resolved transformed whatever can be healed, can be healed, whatever can't be healed is managed. All of that, I don't think we even know what we're talking about when we talk about awakening. I think we're just full of shit to be honest.  And I think that's because we're literally are full of shit and we need to move that debris but before we can begin to access the truer and deeper questions of our lives.  Neil Sattin  How would you suggest someone know whether or not, because this, this experience of accessing, the, you know, let's say you rise above, you see the, the garage full of boxes and boxes of old stuff and then you're like, Okay, I'm not going to stay in this risen above state I'm gonna go back and I'm going to start cleaning things out, I'm gonna clean house. When do you think someone needs help and support in that realm? Because I think that's you know the illusion that we have about big feelings and this is, I think, part of the cycle is when we're young those big feelings, especially when we're not given a safe container for them. They do feel like they're there too big they overwhelm the system and our nervous systems aren't, they aren't essentially capable of handling them. So, so then we have this irrational fear as an adult that we can't move through them when in fact like going into a feeling like that it does... It comes on strong and then it does subside and leaves you in a better off place, at least that's been my experience. And yet at the same time, I also have this feeling that for some people they may need a container or someone who's there to kind of help hold the space for them to have those kinds of experiences and so how in your opinion how would I know where I was landing on that spectrum?  Jeff Brown  I mean, I don't know that you would. I mean a great many -- most people walk around you know living far distance from their body. Was that a line from I think it was, Walter Mitty or something: "He lived a fair distance from his body." Um. You know, I feel like what has to happen is this conversation has to be normalized and, within society. And I think it's beginning to happen and I think that it needs to begin to happen in the school system, where, there's some forum created for emotional attunement because we're talking about not being attuned at an early age for a healthy emotional release for supported release within the school, within the classroom, with teachers, with practitioners that are part of that. I think it has to happen in corporate environments where we learn how to attuned to and move material that's preventing us from being most effective. I think we need to have some kind of release chambers on street corners, where people can go inside and smash a cube with a baseball bat and normalize it, normalize healthy anger release, because it's, anger has been so deeply stigmatized that now all of it's restrained, repressed, and gets acted out in all kinds of weird passive aggressive, inappropriate ways. I think we just have to make this part of our every part of society so that attunement and release are normal and are considered to be healthy steps towards a healthy society. And, and then people will be able to gauge themselves. So right now you have people walking into a b- a body centered psychotherapist room who've never really enlivened their body. Who've been adapting, amoring in a million different ways. All they know is that consciousness. That's how they've organized themselves to survive in the crazy world and and then they have the super extreme experience of grounding, opening it. "Oh my God, what is this?" And many of them leave. Many people will go to somatic psychotherapy sessions and never do more than one, because it's, it's not normalized within society. It's startling. It's stigmatized and it's a radical experience of opening in a system that's been closed. So I think it's on all of us to create some kind of a reality where the conversation about how angry I am or I'm at level four in my anger quotient, or I've got grief at Level 2 or however you want to language it, begins part of our day to day conversation. So when people cry in a coffee shop people don't look at them and make faces. They come over and they sit around them and they hold the space for them. Those kinds of things need to happen. I believe they might happen and they are beginning to happen in some ways but not happening quickly enough.  Neil Sattin  Yeah. Yeah. I agree.  Jeff Brown  So you and I, so you and I are good examples. So you know it happens between people you know. I mean we're damaged in relationship and we heal in relationships, so here are you and I. I read the meditation not even thinking you might be having an experience of it. You have an experience of it. So then the question is how can I hold the space for that experience for you, so that you actually make some progress internally, resolutionally in a 10 or 15 minute period and model that to humanity and then as we model that to humanity, especially as men, which is so important to model this to men, in particular. And not only but in particular, then we begin to make progress.  Neil Sattin  Yeah. Yeah, I think that's really true. That's really true. And it feels true also in terms of my experience. You know when I take something like a moment like this and then go out into the world then I start feeling those innately, I'm putting, I'm making the little quote marks with my fingers, those spiritual unity consciousness type experiences and I think they emerge from being really deeply in touch with...  Jeff Brown  Your feelings.  Neil Sattin  Yeah. My feelings these real parts of me.  Jeff Brown  Yeah. This is... I'm not opposed to unity consciousness but I'm not interested in a unity consciousness experience that is limited to a transcendent field. I want my connection to the everything to come from the heart of the body itself and the emotional body. And then it feels like a more sustainable experience. And it actually feels like a more expansive experience for me. And I also feel safer because I haven't had to bifurcate my consciousness to have that experience. So now I'm afraid to come back down to earth and I'm going to crash at some point because you know I'm not bridging the two. If I start from within the body... So, so you know in interacting with Michael in the book was a kind of one of my struggles. It was like, what he's calling awakening or transcendence is something that's very different, may be very different from what I experienced as awakening or transcendence. Because I did it from within my body, my feet grounded on the earth plane. So are we even talking about the same experience? His feels flight, you're more kind of motivated by or intended in the direction of getting away from something, whereas mine felt like it was about really trying to be here for all of it. You know the real "Be Here Now" the one that actually starts within my body, not renaming myself, as Ram Dass did, but as Jeff Brown. Jeff Brown with Jeff Brown story. With my bubbie Frannie Perlove . With my grandfather Zeyta Deela Perlove.  Neil Sattin  I'm just laughing...  Jeff Brown  With my very difficult mother Barbara Brown. All of that is real. That is not not spiritual. That is so spiritual that's my lineage. That's my ancestry. That's my flesh and bones baby. And if I'm not in my flesh and bones there's no possible way I can access an awakening consciousness.  Neil Sattin  I'm just laughing because I'm thinking of the place in the book where you talk about Eckhart totally changing his name and then...  Jeff Brown  Yeah his name is Ulrich. Neil Sattin  Right. And then like if names aren't important, then why are people changing their names?  Jeff Brown  Yeah yeah. He's got this quote about like you know "formlessness over form," it's like, well you know, and "ego is the enemy of the sacred," whatever all these people are talking about. And then they change their names. Well clearly it's important enough for them to take on another name in order to disconnect from their birth -- their name of origin. And you know, I understand the purpose that serves it gives a lot of people a break from what it meant to be, their, their origins. But because their origins are them and their origins are encoded in their bones and in their cells. Changing the name can be a temporary reprieve. But ultimately you still got to come back down to do the work inside of "Ulrich Tolle" and, Ram Dass has to still do the work that is Richard Alpert and Ram Dass  wouldn't disagree with that, I think. You know and that's everywhere in the community. Bhagavan Das's real name was Kermit Michael Riggs. He's walking around carrying everything that's Kermit Michael Riggs. He can call himself whatever he wants, he's still carrying Kermit Michael Riggs and he is Kermit Michael Riggs. So I think you know, if we're going to go down into the body, into the feelings. And I realized because we don't have templates we only have a few models, a few techniques developed, it's very difficult to invite people in this direction because then how do we get them there to stay there because there aren't that many integrated models, most of what we've been calling spirituality is bifurcated and if you really look closely, even yoga was... If you look at its origins it's called "Yoke"  It means unity. But really what they're talking about is a version of unity that gets you away from and perfects the toxic body beast again. It's still dissociative. It's still the bypass. And what we need now and what I try to ignite and support in the call to action is: people, all the people, young people out there who were interested in somatic psych, a lot of them going into inclusivity, begin to co-create models that unite these various techniques that pull us up and out or in a way to look at ourselves through a more expansive lens, whatever we call it, with the desire to be deeply living within our body and healing the trauma that obstructs our consciousness. And finding a way to weave transcendence and imminence into the holy holy what I call a "We-stern" consciousness. The quest for unity consciousness and essence fundamental to Eastern traditions and the quest for a healthy self concept, and a work through, an embodied experience of the moment, that's more fundamental to Western consciousness. And when we find that weave, then we're really going to be here for our awakening.  Neil Sattin  So I'd like to spend. Our last few minutes together today bringing this into the realm of relationship. And what I'm thinking of is how, in your book, The Evolution of this starts with being in the body and and there are a few other exercises that you offer that are all about accessing what's happened, the material that's happening within you now. And then that leads to this place of that being able to fuel a sense of who we actually are, beyond who we think we are and and mining ourselves for that, the uh, I forget the term that you use for it. But for those aspects of us that are about who we are uniquely able to be in this lifetime in this body. And I think for a lot of people there's this question of their journey found them, let's say to this place of relationship with this person, and then they start wondering well how do I know if this is a true connection, where we can grow each other, versus one where we're just going to be trapped in our woundedness together? So I'm curious to know how you would connect this body centered awareness with that question of: Is this the right person? Is this the right choice? Is this like, is this the work worth doing? Because we have all our own material that's right there for us, and then we're in, we can be in choice about the material we want to work on with another human.  Jeff Brown  Yeah I mean, I mean so the distinction let's say between "woundmates" and "soulmates," or something. Yeah, I mean, I think that you know, I think one of the dangers of the therapeutic revolution with respect to the shadow work that I am encouraging people to do, is that we make the mistake of thinking that every trigger filled connection is worth our while. I don't believe that. That has certainly not been my experience. There, you know, there are certain criterion that would determine whether or not it's worth our while and whether it isn't. And one of the most obvious ones is whether both people are willing to do the shadow work, is the most basic level question, you know. Because if, if they're not if one of them isn't, then you have a problem. You either adapt your consciousness kind of lowest common denominator to the vibration of the person who doesn't want to do the work or you walk away. But even in an experience I've been in experiences where there was a willingness for two people, myself and the other to do the deeper shadow work. But the relationship was like a nexus for so many triggers, both very obviously, individually rooted in individual experience, and all kinds of inexplicable... You know it's so difficult to language collective, ancestral, familial material, that it didn't matter how much work we did therapeutically, there was no way it was ever going to become anything other than painful. And I do not believe that we need to perpetually live in suffering in order to become conscious. I mean, we have to do work within the pain material for sure. So, I think that you know as you move into this kind of consciousness, authentic relating more deeply attuned to your material and the others, you have to ask the question, is this the kind of experience where for whatever reason without having to judge it, perpetually, we're not going to be able to move our way through this to transformation in a way that feels healthy positive and forward moving? Or is this the kind of connection that has the hope of becoming what I call a "wholemate," you know a connection that really has that more subtle, essential, soulful quality to it. And the same time is grounded in the real world in the day to day life experience and also in the working through the shadow material in a way that's forward moving. And you have to always ask that question, because not every connection, even with the best of intentions is a connection that's going to allow you to grow and evolve.  Neil Sattin  In your book you offer "the beloved meditation exercise" and I don't think we necessarily have the time and space to go through that whole thing right now. But I think it's it's actually a great, it's a great way I think to explore that question from a centered place.  Jeff Brown  Yeah. And from an embodied place. Not as a concept. You know, I had a cousin who kept asking me if a relationship, every relationship he'd say he'd asked me if it was a fit. Like I knew I would say, well you know I'd say I don't know, how do you feel? He go, "Well I think..." And I'd go: You're not answering it from I think you keep trying it's not working you need to go into your body. He didn't want to go into his body. He was very, very detached from his body and only when he finally did have a forced, kind of a forced embodiment experience, as the trauma built and built and built into kind of like a breakdown. Did he actually come to access the answers that he actually had and always knew and always carried as to whether a particular connection he was in was a fit for him. It has to happen all of it inside the body so with the beloved meditation, my effort in a way was to try to invite people inside of that temple in order to ask that primary question whether or not that connections really a fit going forward.  Neil Sattin  Right. And it's questions like, now I have it in front of me: Is this person still part of my future? Are there still lessons we need to learn from each other? Or are we complete together? Are there lessons I now need to learn on my own outside of this present relational form? Are we meant to walk together in the coming moments? Or is it time to take leave of each other? I mean these are great questions and they have to be answered from a place where you're fully...  Jeff Brown  Feeling.  Neil Sattin  Exactly. Like if they're, if those answers are coming from a place of fear then we already know what the answers are gonna be.  Jeff Brown  You can, you can answer a question about whether someone's a fit for you from your mind if you want to do a practical pros and cons list or something. But if you're asking the question of how you feel you can't answer that question conceptually, you have to enter into that very scary terrain for most of us which is the emotional and physical body. And to me, they're kind of synonymous, and drop down into that and let your body tell you what your answers are. And that's why a lot of people remain stuck, you know, and then they go and they go to a workshop experience, that has in it a body component at the end of it they know whether or not to end their relationship or not, or to go deeper because they finally access their body which is very hard to do in our cultural, overstimulated, survive, by your wits, culture. We have to have an experience of the body in order to figure out what direction to walk in our lives.  Neil Sattin  Yeah and I'm... It's interesting for me. We, Chloe and I, actually have this whole practice of using muscle testing and kinesiology to to tap into the body wisdom. And at the same time, I'm, I'm curious to see how these deeper and deeper emotional excavations will inform the body's wisdom, when we're asking those questions.  Jeff Brown  Yeah. Yeah. There's such important questions and they're not just about relationships. They're about, you know, I use the term, "truthaches," in the book, in "Soulshaping," because there are many indicators we're off-path and the way we again determine that, is we do something embodied, whatever that happens to be. Osho's dynamic meditation, holotropic breathwork, some Somatic Experiencing work. You know, bioenergetics your core energetic sessions, core energetics is amazing also and something you know that allows you to really enliven the body and let the body speak its truth. It wants to. And that's what it's built for.  Neil Sattin  Right you've got to help your body speak, and then tune yourself so that you're actually listening to what your body's saying.  Jeff Brown  Right on.  Neil Sattin  Well, Jeff I really appreciate you're here being here to join us again on Relationship Alive to talk about your work the book, "Grounded Spirituality," is a fascinating journey of a book and I appreciate that you gave me the time because we were actually in dialogue about when to do this conversation, that you gave me the time to really explore it, and try things out and it was helpful for me in my personal life and in being able to have this conversation with you. Of course because it's a really long book we could talk a lot longer, but I think I always have that feeling with you honestly that there's, there's always more to say which leaves me excited for the next conversation.  Jeff Brown  Great.  Neil Sattin  So thank you so much for joining us here today. And if people want to find out a little bit more obviously, they can pick up the book "Grounded Spirituality," and how else can they find out about you and your work?  Jeff Brown  They can check out soul-shaping-dot-com, my older site. There's some course downloads and things there are lots of stuff to read. Soul-Shaping-Institute-dot-com. I've got a couple of writing courses coming up writing your way home courses and my new Jeff-Brown-dot-co, web site will be up soon. I'm very excited about that and start doing a lot more video, start a podcast and all that and just join me on Facebook and Instagram and there all the time and interactive. And thank you Neil. I appreciate your support.  Neil Sattin  My pleasure. And just a quick additional plug for your writing course. Those are all about using writing as a vehicle for healing and finding your authentic expressed, grounded voice, right? Jeff Brown  Absolutely. I hold a very tight and safe container for people to excavate their material and write through it, and bring it in the direction of healing without any emphasis on perfect writing or perfect grammar any of that stuff. It's... There are some people who do the course and don't join the Facebook private group and go off and write and write books and a number of my students have been published but the Facebook group component, which is about 60 percent of the student body for each course, is really focused on helping to support one another to just say and to express the things they've never ever felt permission to express before so it's a really beautiful experience.  Neil Sattin  Such important work. And again if you are interested in finding out more, you can get all the links to Jeff's websites etc. through the show notes page which you can get at, Neil-Sattin- dot-com-slash-grounded, as in "Grounded Spirituality, where you can text the word "Passion" to the number 3-3-4-4-4 and follow the instructions. And thanks again Jeff for being with us today.  Jeff Brown  Thank you Neil. Appreciate it.

For years, Emilie has been inviting "spiritual types," into her home and accepting "vibes" as payment for rent.

In this episode, I asked Iris McAlpine to interview me so I could tell the whole story which led to the birth of the WholeHuman mission, platform, and movement.Iris is a an amazing interviewer, with her own Podcast called Pure Curiosity, and she asks me some really important questions about:How to know when we are dissociated.The way we are all codependent to some degree.The neurological system when it comes to trauma.Positive and spiritual bypassing.Self abandonment as a "seeker."Developing a better relationship with yourself.Becoming embodied and present when we are feeling emotion so as not to disregulate further. The most important first step when rebuilding a relationship with yourself.WholeHuman is truly about the lessons I learned from using spirituality and self-help to further exacerbate the overly strong machinery of my mind and disconnect more from myself creating deeper chasms from within, while fueling my codependency which had me stuck in less than fulfilling circumstances in life and in relationships.

In the season opening of WholeHuman Radio, I interview Jeff Brown on his new book, Grounded Spirituality. Jeff is a thought leader, spiritual activist, and compassionate humanist who takes an impassioned and critical look at the "New Cage" movement and patriarchal spirituality in order to bring us more deeply into our human experience, here, now. Jeff has a balanced and compassionate way of discussing the importance of selective discernment when consuming the self-help industries "bifurcated, non-duality, bull-shit."He addresses the dangers for trauma survivors of premature transcendence, exaggerated dissociation, and the devaluing of "self" that happens because most one-dimensional, patriarchal spirituality is peddling "enlightenment" and more dissociation as opposed to giving us the tools to reconnect to and embody the WholeHuman experience. You can buy his new book through Amazon or get a signed copy through his publishing website www.enrealment.comJeff Brown also has links to his film Karmageddon and his writing courses on his website www.soulshaping.comTo get more WholeHuman information you can sign up for updates on www.megynblanchard.com or come join the WholeHuman Tribe on Facebook.

In this lively episode, we take a conversational wild ride as we speak with author, filmmaker and iconoclast, Jeff Brown, of soulshaping.com. We speak about embodiment (of course!), consumerism preying on the uncentered, conscious armouring, the way embodied humans have a certain quality of gravity, the way he thinks anyone who calls themselves a spiritual teacher is full of shit, how to not throw the holy man out with the bathwater, a new model of yoga or somatic practice, and so much more. Enjoy!

Last month my friend Margaret Nichols interviewed me for her website and I enjoyed the conversation so much, I had to have her on the podcast ASAP. In today's episode we talk about navigating big life transitions, acting out as an adult, spiritual kryptonite and the areas of yoga that most people miss out on. About Margaret Nichols: A writer and consciousness cheerleader in Manhattan, Margaret Nichols is a recognized leader + trainer in the Oneness Movement. Having been involved since 2006, she trained with monks in India and Fiji and now teaches in New York and as well as mentoring other trainers nationally. The goal of “Oneness” is to “help set humanity free.” They let Margaret do this with high heels and great hair, so she is very pleased about that. Although teachers, influences and studies are too numerative to list here, in addition to her vast Oneness fam, and the ongoing Ultimate grace of Sri AmmaBhagavan, in 2006 she lived in India while studying with the late contemporary yogi master Sri K Pattabhi Jois, and had a continued Ashtanga practice with master teacher Eddie Stern and his awesome crew of teachers in New York. They and many others get mad gratitude for any grounding she might have. Om! On the artistic front, Margaret has been a professional, award-winning actress in New York City and internationally for a decade and a half. Since 2001 she’s been a member of the prestigious off-Broadway company: TACT (The Actor’s Company Theatre). www.tactnyc.org …and any bio would be remiss to not include her alma mater, the more than terrific: University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. In this episode, Margaret shares: 1. Navigating big life transitions 2. Acting out as an adult 3. Spiritual kryptonite and the areas of yoga that most people miss out on
