Starting your weekend off right, with the king of mindset. We had to replay this one because it's too goo not to!Meet a man who makes miracles happen. Today, I'm joined in the studio by Hal Elrod, author of the international bestseller The Miracle Morning and his newest book, The Miracle Equation. After overcoming multiple near-death experiences and financial hardships, Hal channeled his adversity into helping others overcome their own challenges. His Miracle Morning approach has impacted millions of lives.On today's episode, Hal tells us all about his updated version of The Miracle Morning. He explains SAVERS, the six foundational practices that will transform your morning and change your life. We also talk about tips for hacking your sleep, productivity, and relationships. Hal shares the stories of his devastating car accident and rare cancer diagnosis—and the superpowers he gained from coming back to life. We explore how these near-death experiences changed his perspective on life and what he values most. He also tackles some tough questions… Should we try to help everyone? What does it mean to be a “man”? And what does it take to truly serve others? There's so much to take away from Hal's refreshing and optimistic perspective.

What if the thing you're avoiding is exactly what you should pursue? Jack Cai broke three world records solving Rubik's Cubes blindfolded, for teh same reason America suppsoedly went to the moon. "Not because it is easy, but because it is hard" This episode explores the mindset shift that happens when you stop asking "How can I make this easier?" and start asking "What's so hard that almost no one else is doing it?" Jack shares his five-year journey from curiosity to world record, the habit systems that made elite performance possible, and the surprising question that emerged after he achieved his goal: now what? We discuss deliberate practice, the introvert's edge in mastery, and why the hardest problems often offer the best opportunities for people willing to embrace discomfort. Reframe difficulty as a competitive advantage, not a barrier Build systems that make extraordinary performance automatic over time After winning, redefine success on your own terms The remarkable life isn't found in avoiding hard things—it's found in seeking them deliberately.

What if happiness is not something we need to create or strive for, but something we discover when we soften and let go? In this guided meditation, we awaken through the body, inviting the energy of a smile into the eyes, heart, belly and whole field of awareness. As we relax habitual tension and release the effort to control our experience, we begin to sense the aliveness and openness that are already here. The practice guides us to rest back into presence—meeting sensations, sounds and thoughts with a receptive awareness. Again and again, we discover that the pathway to happiness can be surprisingly simple: relaxing our grasping and allowing ourselves to be fully here. This meditation is especially supportive for: Relaxation and stress relief Mindfulness and embodied presence Letting go of tension and over-efforting Cultivating happiness and inner peace Reconnecting with the aliveness of the present moment   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

To kick off the very first episode of “We Got Company”, Sebastian sits down with comedy legend Jerry Seinfeld for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look into the minds of two stand-up masters. Jerry and Sebastian pull back the curtain on the comedic process, debating the risks of testing out new material at dinner parties and questioning whether either of them can actually be considered "social." Jerry hilariously quizzes Sebastian on exactly how much prep he did for this conversation. Sebastian opens up about how meditation has completely changed his life—and credits Jerry for being the one who pushed him to finally try it. Despite being in the business for over half a century, Jerry shares his deep gratitude for the industry and explains why he still finds pure joy on stage. Jerry turns the tables by pressing Sebastian to reveal his ultimate, pie-in-the-sky show business opportunity. Plus, you won't want to miss the end of the episode, where Jerry surprises Sebastian with an incredibly special gift to celebrate the launch of the show! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jonny Miller on Nervous System Mastery, Grief, and Why High Performers Can't Afford to Stay Stuck in Their Heads Your nervous system is running every decision, relationship, and reaction in your life, and you won't notice how much it's costing you until something breaks. This episode gives you the exact framework for building real nervous system mastery instead of running on autopilot until it fails. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Jonny Miller, host of the Inner Frontier Podcast and founder of Nervous System Mastery, who has taught more than 1,000 people how to build the skills of interoception, self-regulation, and emotional fluidity. A former Silicon Valley founder turned nervous system expert, Jonny brings a rare mix of rational, data-driven thinking and deep somatic work to a field most high performers avoid entirely. They break down why interoception, self-regulation, and emotional fluidity are the three learnable skills behind every major shift in performance, relationships, and decision-making, and why most high achievers have spent their whole lives disconnected from what's happening below the neck. Jonny introduces the half-life of reactivity, his framework for measuring how quickly someone can move from triggered back to calm, and explains how free diving became his gateway into surrender, breath work, and pressure equalization as a form of high-stakes meditation. Dave shares his own parallel journey through nervous system work, including lessons from running 40 Years of Zen and a costly business betrayal that reshaped how he reads people. Dave and Jonny also open up about grief, including Jonny's experience losing his fiancée and later his mother, and how community and co-regulation shape how fast someone actually heals. You'll Learn: Why interoception, self-regulation, and emotional fluidity are the three core skills behind nervous system mastery What the half-life of reactivity is and how to use it to measure real emotional progress How free diving works as a form of high-stakes meditation and a direct feedback loop for unclenching Why congruence between your inner and outer state matters more than staying composed under pressure How team intuition can be used as a practical filter in high-stakes hiring decisions Why co-regulation with friends and community can dramatically shorten the grieving process What Jonny's Breath Buddy device is designed to teach kids and families about nervous system regulation Thank you to our sponsors! - MOD | Visit mod.com for a consultation and get 10% off your first order plus free shipping with promo code DAVE. - ZenBud | Dave's Nervous System Biohack.

We often underestimate how much small talk can impact our wellbeing. Research shows that even brief conversations with strangers can boost our happiness and sense of connection, but fear and anxiety often keep us from reaching out.Summary: We often avoid talking to strangers because we assume they'd rather be left alone, or worry the interaction will be awkward. But research shows that our expectations about these interactions are often wrong. Even brief conversations can make us happier and more connected. On this episode of The Science of Happiness, learn how small choices like saying hello, asking a question, or offering a compliment can help us overcome our hesitation and create meaningful moments of connection.How To Do This Practice: Notice an opportunity: Throughout your day, look for moments when you're near someone you don't know—a person on public transit, in line at a coffee shop, or walking through your neighborhood. Put away your phone: Create a little more space for connection by taking out your earbuds or putting your phone away, rather than using it to avoid interacting with the people around you. Take the first step: When you notice an opportunity, say hello, introduce yourself, or ask a simple question. You don't need the perfect opening—just get the conversation started. Ask a follow-up question: Show genuine curiosity about the other person. Ask about something they've mentioned and let the conversation unfold naturally. Share something about yourself: Connection goes both ways. Offer a little about your own experiences, interests, or perspective so the conversation becomes a two-way exchange. Try it again: Pay attention to how you feel afterward, then look for another opportunity to connect. Treat it as an experiment and practice making small choices that bring you closer to the people around you.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me. The goodness you offer the world begins with the kindness you offer yourself tonight. This 3 hour sleep meditation helps release stress, cultivate compassion, and settle your heart into deep, peaceful sleep. Perfect for self-love, emotional healing, mindfulness, and restorative rest. Love,

In this contemplative episode of 5 Minutes of Peace, spiritual teacher Michael Monk introduces listeners to one of the foundational practices from his Awakening Course — a meditation he calls The Mirror Meditation.Michael explains that we are all reflections of one another, making every encounter an opportunity for greater self-awareness. In this guided practice, he invites listeners to use his face as a mirror, gently focusing on both of his eyes with equal attention. This balanced way of seeing is designed to quiet mental activity, harmonize the brain's two hemispheres, and encourage a deeper state of presence.As the meditation unfolds, participants may notice subtle shifts in perception. Some experience changes in light, color, or the appearance of an aura. Others may observe facial features seeming to soften, change, or even dissolve. Michael emphasizes that these experiences are simply invitations to relax, remain present, and become more aware of the energy that surrounds us.Perhaps the most meaningful part of the practice comes after the meditation itself. Michael encourages listeners to repeat the exercise while looking into their own reflection. By meeting ourselves with openness instead of judgment, we begin to cultivate a deeper relationship with our own inner wisdom and intuition.His closing reminder is both simple and profound:"Remember to love what you see."It is an invitation to approach ourselves with compassion, curiosity, and acceptance—recognizing that peace begins by seeing ourselves with new eyes.About Today's GuestMichael Monk has been teaching spirituality, metaphysics, and energy mastery since 2011. Through meditation, intuitive development, and consciousness practices, he helps students cultivate greater presence, spiritual awareness, and personal transformation.To learn more about Michael and his work, visit:www.michaelmonk.bioMichael 's Facebook pageMichael's IG: https://www.instagram.com/michaelmonkavatar/On YouTube at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLhiIVwHdt6F1Kym6nj4h0AThank you for listening — and thank yourself for taking 5 Minutes of Peace.We are all connected on a path of love, service, and peace for ourselves and others.

Et pourtant, vous savez déjà qu'en deux semaines, la rentrée risque de tout effacer.Dans cet épisode, je vous propose une méthode pour prolonger les bénéfices de vos vacances bien après la reprise, sans attendre le prochain break pour retrouver cette sensation de bien-être.On a souvent l'impression que le contraste entre "la vie en vacances" et "la vraie vie" est une fatalité.
