About the strange paradoxes of American, and about his search for the American soul, in the times of 'The Upsidedown'—as the TV show Stranger things calls it. American is in the upsidedown, we both agreed. But Jamie transmitted his enthusiasm and hopes for the American experiment. In our wide ranging conversation we discussed: The city on the hill; History of American counterculture movements; The infinite game of the enlightenment project; Hidden mystic lineages of American; The Grateful Dead; Unlocking post conventional experiences; Open sourcing extasis; Psycho-spiritual version of blockchain; Metaphysics/Ethics/Sacraments/Mythology; Deities and archetypes; The second Adam; Soul Force; Jefferson vs Hamilton; The upsideown American Biography (source: https://www.flowgenomeproject.com/team/jamie-wheal) Jamie Wheal is the Executive Director of The Flow Genome Project and leading expert in the neurophysiology of human performance.

When you boost energy through your system via breathwork, movement, myofascial release, or anything else, you have more juice going through your circuits and it tends to disclose more information about where you're impeded. So, ecstasis constantly shows you two things: your sort of highest potential, the way you ought to be or the way the world could be and it also shows you where you're broken. It's like an electrician running juice through a circuit and discovering you've blown fuse. - Jamie Wheal It's the biggest revolution you've never heard of, and it's hiding in plain sight. Over the past decade, some of the highest performers in the world have been harnessing rare and controversial states of consciousness to solve critical challenges and outperform the competition. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE In Wellness Force Radio episode 209, leading expert on the neurophysiology of human performance, Co-Author of Best-seller Stealing Fire, and Executive Director of Flow Genome Project, Jamie Wheal, shares why the "Altered States Economy" has now grown to over 4 billion dollars and what that means for our collective future. Learn how these states unlock how we can become a stronger Promethean, why hedonism is naturally wired within you, and what 80-20 "Woke to Broke" really is. After practicing meditation, doing yoga, or using psychedelics to illicit personal growth or flow state, do you ever feel like something is still missing from within? Learn why the integration process is so vital when altering your mental state and how you can achieve greater balance through hedonic calendaring. "Let's not chase one more peak experience or shiny thing that we believe is going to give us all the happiness that we want. Many believe that if we can only get there, then life is forever easy but life isn't like that." - Jamie Wheal of @FlowGenome http://bit.ly/wfpodcast Get your copy of Stealing Fire by Steven Kotler and Jamie Wheal today It’s the biggest revolution you’ve never heard of, and it’s hiding in plain sight. Over the past decade, Silicon Valley executives like Eric Schmidt and Elon Musk, Special Operators like the Navy SEALs and the Green Berets, and maverick scientists like Sasha Shulgin and Amy Cuddy have turned everything we thought we knew about high-performance upside down. Instead of grit, better habits, or 10,000 hours, these trailblazers have found a surprising shortcut. They're harnessing rare and controversial states of consciousness to solve critical challenges and outperform the competition. New York Times bestselling author Steven Kotler and high performance expert Jamie Wheal spent four years investigating the leading edges of this revolution—from the home of SEAL Team Six to the Googleplex, the Burning Man festival, Richard Branson’s Necker Island, Red Bull’s training center, Nike’s innovation team, and the United Nations’ Headquarters. And what they learned was stunning: In their own ways, with differing languages, techniques, and applications, every one of these groups has been quietly seeking the same thing: the boost in information and inspiration that altered states provide. Today, this revolution is spreading to the mainstream, fueling a trillion dollar underground economy and forcing us to rethink how we can all lead richer, more productive, more satisfying lives. Driven by four accelerating forces—psychology, neurobiology, technology, and pharmacology—we are gaining access to and insights about some of the most contested and misunderstood terrain in history. Stealing Fire is a provocative examination of what’s actually possible; a guidebook for anyone who wants to radically upgrade their life. Listen To Episode 209 As Jamie Wheal Uncovers: How the world began to look at altered states of consciousness and the essential history of it. How we can become a stronger Promethean through altered states. The altered states of economy and how we use various sources to shift our state of mind. How hedonism is naturally wired within us. Why respiration, embodied cognition, and sexuality are mind altering tools that are the least susceptible to corruption and/or repression. Two things mind altering tools and practices can do: show you your highest potential and where you're broken. Whether or not a practice like holotropic breathing can help boost our energy and heal us. All these little experiences and peak states that can help us fix most things that are going on within our minds. How we can properly use psychedelics to help us overcome this constant stimulation that's always around us. The statistics of the population taking psychedelics as far as who should take them and when. Why we should be cautious with psychedelic usage and other minder altering practices because they might open some doors that should have been closed. Why attending a mass amount of Ayahuasca series will not lead you to what you're seeking because you have not integrated what you've experienced during them to your actual life. The increase in the amount of super virus via medicine because of the vast amount of antibiotics that doctors give to patients. The vital importance of the integration process while using psychedelics and experiencing altered states. What we're missing when it comes to altered states as far as integration and service. 80-20 Woke to Broke - How we become 20% satisfied with something but then spend 80% of our time chasing the high we get from that natural 20% Daily or weekly, positive practices such as breathing or clean eating that you can plan through hedonic calendering that allow you to naturally indulge without psychedelics. How he sees himself as a servant of God by trying to be a good father, husband, and leader in his organization. Monogamy vs Polyamory vs. Hierogamy relationships and whether or not we're using communion as a route to transcendence or not. Power Quotes From The Show "Ecstasis constantly shows you two things: your highest potential and where you're broken. It's like an electrician running juice through a circuit and discovering you've blown a fuse" - Jamie Wheal of @FlowGenome http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "The whole 80-20 "Woke to Broke" is this idea that you get 80% bang for your buck on ecstatic technologies with the first 20% of your involvement. However, because that first 20% feels so amazingly rewarding, most people just continue going and then they invest 80% of their time and money to chasing the long tail of the 20% which can go on forever; you're never going to get there but you can chase it forever." - Jamie Wheal "We can see 80% 'Woke' as being good enough and it might be all that we ever get to presume and 20% 'Broke' is the human experience. Let's be open and be fully awake to that. Let's not chase one more journey, one more peak experience, or one more bauble, blinky, shiny thing that we tell ourselves is going to give us all the money, love, and happiness that we want. So many people believe that if we can only get there, then life is forever effortless and easy but life isn't like that." - Jamie Wheal "Most people pinball between indulgence and guilt-ridden abstinence. They have an un-integrated relationship to their ecstatic practices and it often gets a lot of cultural baggage and programming. So, hedonic calendaring allows for positive, foundational practices rather than stressing over thoughts of 'Should I or shouldn't I?'" - Jamie Wheal Links From Today's Show Jamie Wheal LinkedIn Facebook Flow Genome Project Facebook Twitter Instagram Vimeo YouTube Stealing Fire by Steven Kotler and Jamie Wheal Flow Genome Project Closed Facebook Group Democratize Nirvana SEALFIT 20X | A DEEPER WHY | One Man's Journey | Physical & Emotional Intelligence Your Brain on Porn by Gary Wilson Rock Tape Paul Stamets on The Joe Rogan Experience Gil Hedley: Fascia and stretching: The Fuzz Speech Stanislav "Stan" Grof The Wim Hof Method Joe Rogan talks AYAHUASCA & DMT Natural Stacks: Psychedelic Researcher Rick Doblin on Treating PTSD with MDMA Ram Dass WFR 086 Mark Divine About Jamie Wheal Jamie Wheal, Executive Director of Flow Genome Project and Co-Author of Stealing Fire is a leading expert on the neurophysiology of human performance.
