Today, we're going to talk about what it means to be a mother + unorganized, messy, scatterbrained adult. Join Stacey as she very openly shares about her most embarrassing quality, and what happened when she did something about it. In this episode, we cover:It was generally acceptable for me to be a quirky, forgetful, unorganized person when I was a kid and a teenager. But it was no longer acceptable when I became an adult (read: Wife, Homeowner, and Mom).There is a lot of shame that comes with being messy and unorganized. I thought I was stupid, inept, and lazy. Something was wrong with me. How “fixing it” with typical cleaning and organizing advice DID NOT WORK.My discovery of KC Davis, executive functioning, and the revolutionary message of: Care tasks are morally neutral.I share my three takeaways that have changed the way I think about myself and my ability to do care tasksStacey is the host (along with Stephanie Sprenger) of the Mother Plus Podcast. She is mother to two loud, full-of-life girls, ages 3 and 5. Before-Children Stacey couldn't stop talking about her future children. And by now, she thought she'd be totally immersed in motherhood, happily sitting on the floor, “doing voices,” tickling tummies, and trying desperately to hold on to every precious moment. But instead, she found herself on that same floor reminiscing about the days when she was a writer (published in Paleo Magazine, Hub Spot, New You Magazine, and TheList.com), an ad girl (working on brands like Revlon, Green Toys, Enjoy Life, and Eco Tools), and health nut badass (with a successful food blog, health coaching certification, and stint as a personal chef).Mentioned in this episode:KC Davis of Struggle CareHer website: https://www.strugglecare.com/Her podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/struggle-care/id1643931456MOTHER PLUS INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/mother_plus_podcast/MOTHER PLUS FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/motherpluspodcastMOTHER PLUS PERMISSION SLIP: https://www.motherplusser.com/Permission-SlipMOTHER PLUS NEWSLETTER: https://www.motherplusser.com/signup-pageMOTHER PLUS BLOG: https://www.motherplusser.com/blog

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

Millions of Americans and people globally are in the same boat. It can be tough to figure out how to get out of the cycle of debt and poor financial decision-making. But there is hope: become financially educated and sovereign, so you can exit the matrix of financial slavery from a system that has existed for hundreds of years to monetize every aspect of your life. Know that we have all signed up to be here at this time on earth so part of the learning curve of this lifetime is to figure out finances. Otherwise, we wouldn't be here or money wouldn't exist. Quite a philosophical and even esoteric statement, that I just made, however, if you really search within your heart and soul, you can feel that it's true. The truth is that money is whatever you want it to be it could be a source of pain or a source of pleasure, but at the end of the day based on universal laws, money is an energetic reward for the value that you provide to others. It's what others are willing to pay you for, it's what the universe is willing to give to you - depending on three key factors: What do you know, think and feel you're worth? How do you enthusiastically and with love and persuasiveness articulate that worthiness while being of service to others? What value of (goods or services) do you provide in the marketplace that is unique and important enough for others to pay you for? By following some simple steps and making some positive changes in your life, you can start to heal your finances once and for all. Keep reading to learn more... 1. Acknowledge your feelings - it's okay to feel stressed and depressed about your finances 2. Talk to someone who can help - a financial planner, therapist, or even a friend 3. Make a plan - figure out where your money is going and what you can cut back on 4. Take action - make small changes in your spending habits that will make a big difference over time 5. Be patient - healing your finances takes time, but it is possible to get back on track 6. Reward yourself - once you've made progress, treat yourself to something special Acknowledge your feelings - it's okay to feel stressed and depressed about your finances Feeling stressed and depressed about your finances can be a normal reaction to an overwhelming situation. If you're feeling this way, it's important to take some time to acknowledge those feelings. Reflect on what might be the cause of your stress and find ways to address it such as implementing more discipline into your financial habits or shifting your mindset about money. Maybe it's coming up with a plan for living within or below your means or having conversations with loved ones who are able to provide guidance—whatever it may be, taking these steps can help ease the burden of financial worry and put you back on track toward healing your finances for good. Talk to someone who can help - a financial planner, therapist, or even a smart friend! Talking to someone who can help is a key step to peace and healing when it comes to finances. We all need mentors and guides, especially when it comes to something as daunting as our bank accounts. Finding the right person - whether it be a financial planner, therapist, or friend - can help you release stress and create a plan of action. This can be hugely beneficial in giving you the peace of mind and security you are searching for in your finances. So make sure you reach out for help; it is an invaluable first step in your healing process. Make a plan - figure out where your money is leaking: what you can cut back on? The key to financial freedom is having a strategy and thoughtfully following through. You can start by figuring out where your money is going, and which places you can cut back on. Once you have done that, then you can begin optimizing the places where you do spend, freeing up more of your resources in order to build wealth; don't let the stress of your finances weigh you down! A plan takes time and effort to create and maintain, but it will be a worthwhile investment in reaching a state of financial success. Take action - make small changes in your spending habits that will make a big difference over time Taking inspired action is one of the best ways to build a healthier relationship with money, and start taking control of your finances. Making small changes in your spending habits can add up over time, and make a big difference in your overall financial health. Whether it's committing to tracking your expenses each week, sticking to a budget that works for you, or making adjustments to improve your financial goals—any effort toward putting yourself in charge of your money will pay off. Start now by taking inspired action towards reaching your goals and be on the path towards healing your finances for good! Be patient - healing your finances takes time, but it is possible to get back on track Healing your finances is no simple task, and it doesn't happen overnight. Finding relief from stress and depression related to money matters can be a slow process, but one that is worth taking your time with. To get back on track, generosity is key; start with small acts of generosity like forgiving debt you feel others owe you. With generosity in mind, don't forget about discipline — make sure you're creating a financial plan for how to keep your money safe and grow it over time. And with patience, generosity, and discipline working together, it's possible to truly heal your finances for good. Make A Plan: Money + Mental Health Stress and depression related to money matters can take a serious toll on your mental health. If you're feeling overwhelmed by financial worries, it's important to remember that you're not alone—and that there are steps you can take to start healing your finances and finding relief. The first step to getting your finances back on track is making a plan. This will help you figure out where your money is going and what adjustments need to be made in order to reach your financial goals. To start, sit down with a pen and paper (or an app like Mint) and write out all of your expenses. This includes necessary costs like rent/mortgage, food, utilities, etc., as well as less obvious ones like subscriptions or monthly memberships. Actually, I just use a Google spreadsheet where I have all money coming in and all money going out, this is otherwise known as a profit and loss sheet or P&L. I track all my expenses right down to the penny using the Mint app, which is huge when it comes to tax time because I can literally run reports on where all of my money goes... Once you have a big-picture view of where your money is going, then you can begin the hard work of trimming those expenses down to something that you can manage each month. It's also important to make sure that any debt management plans are tailored specifically for your needs and resources—and that they prioritize what's most important first. For example, if credit card debt has been weighing heavily on your mind, consider reaching out to a debt consolidation specialist who can help negotiate lower interest rates on those cards so that more of each payment goes towards the balance itself rather than just accruing interest charges. Lowering the amount of interest being charged each month means more of your payment will go towards reducing the principal balance—which in turn will help get more quickly back on track financially. NEXT: Take Action While simply understanding where your money is going may feel empowering at first, it won't do much good unless you actually start putting into practice the changes needed for improvement. Start small: Make a commitment to tracking all of your weekly expenses or sticking with a budget that works for you; cut out unnecessary services such as magazine subscriptions; or adjust spending habits when possible so that more resources are available for savings and investments. Any effort towards taking control of the situation will reward in the long run! The most powerful thing I've ever seen in my own life, and in the lives of almost all people I know who have struggled with money is to take an honest look at where you are wasting money in exchange for immediate gratification. If you're spending money on alcohol and crappy food and going places that you don't even like just because you can't deal with the fact that your life is uncomfortable then it's time to take an emotional inventory. A powerful step for you to begin would be to head over to joshtrent.com/513 where I talk about the wellness pentagon, and the emotional inventory process so you can get clear on where your focus and attention are leaking out dollar bills from your wallet. Seriously go there right now. It is a perfect bookmark for you to do right after this. Be Patient Finally, it's important to remain patient and generous with yourself during this process; Healing finances takes time—no matter how small or big the steps required may be. Generosity is key here: start with forgiving any debt owed by yourself or others; follow through with discipline by creating a financial plan for keeping safe what's yours and growing it over time; reward yourself responsibly when progress has been made - celebrate success but practice moderation when it coming rewarding yourself too much! Reward yourself - once you've made progress, treat yourself to something special Achieving financial freedom can be an incredibly rewarding process - no matter how small the steps! As you experience achievement and progress, don't forget to reward yourself for all the hard work and discipline it takes to turn your finances around. Whether it is a new outfit or dinner out, giving yourself something special will encourage you to continue on your journey while celebrating the achievement of your successes. Be sure to reward yourself responsibly and not take on more debt in order to do so: practice moderation, self-awareness, and planning to ensure that you make lasting changes for a brighter financial future. Ultimately, Stressed About Money? The Answers Are In Your Heart Tips to cope with debt and depression can lead way towards healing both psychologically and financially speaking - just be sure to remember to be patient and generous while doing so! With dedication comes progress - make sure to keep up with tracking expenses & setting realistic goals - then stick with them. Remember: celebrate successes along the way & reward yourself responsibly every once in a while. Every single time you allow yourself to ruminate and stress about money coming in takes you away from the inspired action place of doing and being so valuable to the marketplace, and to the people around you that you actually unconsciously sever the connection between money being given to you by the universe. When I say the universe, I don't just mean some pie in the sky idea that you're going to click your heels together three times and chant that "there's no place like home." What I'm talking about is not a fairytale. I'm talking about the life that you and I signed up for to live well inside of which requires every aspect of the five sides of the wellness pentagon, which I teach: mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial. What I mean is that you will be such an energetic match by the service in your heart, and the passion in your soul, that people could literally not be able to not pay you because they want what you have or they want what you have to give. This has been the hardest learning curve for me in life, and that is my bank account is a crystal clear reflection of my beliefs about myself. And again, not just what other people are willing to pay you for what you give to them, it's what the universe is willing to give to you - depending on the 3 key factors I mentioned: What do you know, think and feel you're worth? How do you enthusiastically and with love and persuasiveness articulate that worthiness while being of service to others? What value of (goods or services) do you provide in the marketplace that is unique and important enough for others to pay you for? This holistic approach helps build a healthier relationship with money over time + truly get back on track sooner rather than later... After reading this... Where do you feel is the perfect starting point for you to achieve peace around your money and finances? You're not alone in feeling stressed and depressed about your finances - but there is hope. By reaching out for help, making a plan, and taking action, you can start to heal your finances and put yourself back on track. Be patient with yourself and celebrate your successes along the way - healing takes time, but it is possible. So where will you start?

It happens unconsciously, without us even realizing it. But what exactly is emotional contagion? How does it manifest itself in our behavior, relationships, and everyday life? Let's explore emotional contagion from a seduction perspective as well as look at its effects on unhealthy and healthy empathy as well as the biology of belief. What is Emotional Contagion? First off, let's define emotional contagion in simple terms: It's when we catch or “absorb” another person's emotions just by being around them or interacting with them. We don't actually "feel" their embodied emotions like they do but instead, we become influenced by their emotional state so that our own behaviors start to adapt to fit theirs. This type of influence is sometimes referred to as "social proof." Social Proof is a psychological phenomenon where a person mirrors the behaviors of others in an attempt to connect and fit in. In essence, it's the notion that, since others are doing it, I should be doing it, too. When one person experiences an emotion such as fear or joy, those feelings spread quickly throughout the group in which they are present. It is an incredibly powerful phenomenon that has a deep impact on our behavior, relationships, and everyday life. Where Does Empathy Come In? So, empathy is an emotional capacity that allows us to understand and share the feelings of others. It is a powerful ability that can be used for good or ill, and it has been studied extensively by psychologists in both its positive and negative forms. Empathy enables us to more deeply connect with people, helping us form stronger relationships and build emotional bonds with those around us. By understanding empathy better, we can use it to create a healthier environment for all. Empathy without borders however is a prime candidate for emotional contagion; it's where people can accidentally label themselves as an HSP (highly sensitive person) when really, they just have poor emotional awareness and boundaries against emotional contagion. The Science of Seduction Ok, let's dive into seduction - one way to think about emotional contagion is through the lens of seduction. The science of seduction is an intriguing and complex subject that has been studied extensively by psychologists in both its positive and negative forms. It involves understanding emotional contagion, emotional intelligence, and the power of emotions to influence relationships. By understanding the science of seduction on a deeper level, we can use it to create a healthier environment for ourselves and our loved ones and also dodge bad relationship bullets! Seduction, it's not always a bad thing. Sometimes it can be really good but it is a complex and often misunderstood art. Understanding healthy seduction can help us create healthier environments for ourselves and our loved ones by enabling us to better connect with authentic people and form trustworthy long-lasting emotional bonds. Emotional contagion is an important part of the science of seduction – it's when we catch or “absorb” another person's lustful or sexual projections onto us - just by being around them or interacting with them. Seduction can be voluntary or involuntary, just like our breath. Many people enjoy consciously being seduced while, unfortunately, many people who have unhealed wounds, attract unconscious, seduction. Emotional intelligence really helps us here - it helps us understand how our own feelings and boundaries affect those around us so that we can use this knowledge to build stronger relationships with ourselves and others. How do you know if you're being seduced? Seduction can be a powerful tool for emotional connection and relationship building, but it can also be used to manipulate and control people. Dark seduction techniques involve emotional manipulation, coercion, and even emotional abuse in order to get what the perpetrator wants from their target. Protecting yourself from dark seduction requires you to recognize the signs of emotional manipulation, develop healthy boundaries and maintain emotional self-awareness. Emotional Power & Manipulation Recognizing the signs of emotional manipulation is key when it comes to protecting yourself from dark seduction. This could include someone attempting to guilt trip or shame you into doing something they want or trying to make you feel bad about your choices or decisions. It's important to trust your instincts if something doesn't feel right – don't let anyone pressure you into doing anything that makes you uncomfortable or unsafe. Developing healthy boundaries is another way of protecting yourself against dark seduction tactics. Healthy boundaries are necessary for any kind of relationship – romantic, platonic or otherwise – as they help define how we expect others to treat us without allowing them too much control over our lives. Setting limits on other people's behavior helps ensure that we remain in control of ourselves so that no one can take advantage of us. Finally, understanding the power of emotions to influence relationships allows us to effectively manage difficult situations while still maintaining meaningful connections with our peers. With these tools at hand, we can use seduction not only for romantic purposes but also for creating healthier environments where everyone benefits from strong emotional bonds and understanding communication between parties. Gretchen Rubin's model of The Four Tendencies is an incredibly powerful concept that has been used in psychology, relationships, and everyday life. It suggests that our emotional states are contagious, meaning that we can influence the emotional state of those around us simply by being present. This idea has far-reaching implications for understanding how our emotions affect others and for improving empathy and emotional intelligence. We've all experienced emotional contagion at one time or another – when we feel the emotions of those around us without realizing it. Again as we've already discussed, emotional contagion occurs when we catch or “absorb” the emotional state of someone else just by being around them or interacting with them. Then, in steps boundaries. Creating Emotional Boundaries Creating emotional boundaries is an important part of healthy relationships, but it can be difficult to know how to set them. The Gottman approach to emotional boundary setting is a powerful tool that can help couples create emotional safety in their relationship and foster greater connection. This approach focuses on understanding each other's emotional needs, communicating clearly and effectively, taking responsibility for one's own feelings and emotions, and respecting each other's differences. By using the Gottman approach to emotional boundary setting, couples can cultivate greater trust, intimacy, and understanding in their relationship. The Power of Healthy Empathy Empathy is a powerful emotional capacity that allows us to understand and share the feelings of others, but it can also be used for harm. It is important to understand when empathy has become unhealthy so we can protect our emotional wellbeing and the emotional safety of those around us. Let's discover how to identify when empathy has gone too far and some strategies for creating emotional boundaries in relationships. A prime example of when empathy goes too far is when a 3-year-old boy has been infected by the mind virus of gender dysphoria, either by scrolling on Instagram or seeing it on YouTube from the demonic energies that troll for innocence there. Instead of being a loving parent and letting the boy simply go through a process of maturation into adolescence and adulthood with loving guidance and firm boundaries around the biology of that child, unfortunately, an unhealthy, distorted version of empathy would allow that child to actually begin to think that they are the opposite gender of how they were born, which then would lead to even more serious mental health ramifications down the road which we see playing out in the world at large right now. So in other words, when empathy goes too far a helping hand actually harms someone else or yourself which in this case with gender dysphoria, you can see how this is absolutely tragic. A great podcast to listen to about this is the episode we did with JP Sears you can find that at JoshTrent.com/463 Having empathy is a powerful emotional capacity that allows us to understand and share the feelings of others. It can be used for good or evil, so it's important to learn how to have a healthy version of empathy in order to build strong relationships with those around us and create emotional safety. But when empathy has gone too far? Look no further than how emotional contagion affects our behavior, relationships, and everyday life by understanding the biology of belief. The Biology of Belief The concept of the Biology of Belief is based on the idea that our beliefs about ourselves and the world around us have a powerful effect on our emotional and physical health. It suggests that our beliefs shape our biology by literally changing how our cells and genes are expressed. The power of this concept lies in its potential to improve mental and emotional wellbeing as well as physical health. Our beliefs act like scripts that shape our behavior, emotional states, and the way we experience life. When it comes to emotional contagion, we can use these scripts to create positive emotional states in ourselves and in those around us. Positive emotions lead to increased empathy, emotional intelligence, and emotional safety within relationships. The Biology of Belief suggests that when we change or release old belief patterns, we can create new patterns of behavior which ultimately result in improved emotional and physical health. Our thoughts contain energy which has an influence on both our outer environment and on the inner workings of our body's cells. Recent scientific studies show that when we make conscious efforts to think positively about ourselves, others, or situations in general – rather than focusing on the negative – we can actually increase levels of dopamine, serotonin, and endorphins (the “happy hormones”) in the brain which help reduce stress levels, improve moods, and promote overall wellbeing. This is also widely known as the science of how thoughts become things otherwise known as psychoneuroimmunology. Biology + Neurochemicals When it comes to emotional contagion, this means that if one person projects positive emotions such as joy or peace onto another person, they could be influencing their neurochemistry by helping them feel relaxed or content. Similarly, if someone projects fearful emotions onto another person they could be creating a more anxious neurochemical state in that person by causing them to feel fear or worry even if there is no immediate danger present. In addition to influencing neurochemistry through emotional contagion, the Biology of Belief also suggests that we can use visualization techniques such as meditation or guided imagery to mentally create positive outcomes for ourselves or those around us by sending out waves of energy into the universe which create opportunities for healing effects both at a physical level and an emotional level. This practice helps us tap into greater self-awareness so we can identify unhelpful thought patterns which may need releasing as well as helpful thought patterns that need reinforcing – ultimately leading to improved mental and emotional wellbeing. Ultimately, understanding how beliefs shape our biology through emotional contagion helps us become more aware of how quickly emotions can spread from one person to another so we can take steps towards cultivating healthier connections with those around us for greater mental wellness. With this knowledge, we are empowered with the ability to make conscious decisions about how best to nourish ourselves emotionally so we can live fuller lives with more meaningful connections with those who matter most! Bruce Lipton's “Biology of Belief” Bruce Lipton's “Biology of Belief” is a revolutionary scientific theory that explores the connection between our beliefs, emotional states, and physical health. By exploring this connection, Lipton has created an alternative model for understanding the power of our mindset that profoundly impacts not only our emotional wellbeing but also how our cells and genes are expressed. The Biology of Belief suggests that our thoughts and emotions create energy which is then broadcasted into the world and also plays an essential role in shaping how our cells and genes are expressed. This means that when we think positively about ourselves or certain situations, we can literally change the expression of our cells at a molecular level. To put it simply: If we believe something to be true, it will become true in reality as well because it is given form through our thoughts and emotions. Better Boundaries With Visualization Techniques Moreover, by using visualization techniques such as meditation or guided imagery along with breathwork, we can use these belief systems to literally create positive outcomes for ourselves or those around us by sending out waves of energy into the universe which promote healing on both physical and emotional levels. This practice helps us to access greater self-awareness so we can identify what unhelpful patterns may need releasing as well as helpful ones that need reinforcing to improve mental wellbeing overall. Taking it Home: Self Love FTW At the end of the day, all of the aspects we've explored point towards greater self-awareness and greater self-love through the mechanisms or mediums of intuition, healthy, emotional boundaries, and specific practices you can do every single day that will strengthen your spiritual, emotional, and mental connection to the truth. And not just the objective truth, but the truth that tends to guide all of us in this world, and that is our subjective truth.

The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

These tips include cultivating wellness habits like meditation or yoga, deepening your knowledge through reading or podcasts, reaching out for guidance from wise mentors and more. So if you're ready to create a better life for yourself today, read on for 11 practical tips. 1. Train Your Mind To Think In Possibilities, Not Limitations. People limit their potential because they don't want to spend the time it requires to get to where they want to be. They focus too much on the limitations of what they have which holds them back from the possibilities of what could be. Whether you're talking about the possibilities of your career, the possibilities of your health or the possibilities of your relationships; you need to think about what you can do to achieve what it is you're aiming for. Stop making excuses because so and so doesn't like you, or your city doesn't have the economic support for your business, and do something. Our potential is often limited by our own unwillingness to put in the time or effort required to get where we want to be. Instead of focusing on what's lacking in our lives, it's important that we focus on the possibilities that exist for us if we take action. Whether it's looking at different career paths or searching for new relationships, never limit yourself by thinking only about what you lack—think instead about how far you could go if only you allowed yourself to explore new options. 2. Put Your Phone On Airplane Mode, Or Toss Your Phone In A Drawer. We spend too much time on social media and not enough time enjoying life and the largest need is to stop trying to share every minute of our lives with those around us. Embrace being present and embrace being with those who are physically around you. In today's world, it can be hard not to constantly check our phones or tablets, but this won't help us reach our goals or enjoy life more fully. Instead, try embracing presence and being with those who are physically around us. Additionally, getting rid of excessive possessions that consume us rather than adding value can be helpful in simplifying our lives and allowing us room for growth. 3. Get Rid Of Excessive Possessions That May Own You Countless studies have shown that money can buy happiness. Happiness doesn't come from things, it comes from experiences. In a 2010 study, the number one category found to be positively related to happiness was leisure activities. From making small changes in our day-to-day routine to taking major leaps of faith and putting ourselves out there, these tips will help you bring more joy and fulfillment into your life. So if you're ready to make a change and start living your dream life today, here's what you need to do! 4. Practice Mindfulness + Self-Care Habits Like Meditation Or Yoga. Not only has meditation been proven time and time again to have numerous benefits for physical health such as lower blood pressure and improved sleep quality but studies have also shown regular meditation improves mental clarity significantly as well as increasing happiness levels over time. Similarly, practicing yoga regularly will allow increased flexibility while promoting positive body image and improved muscle strength - all important steps towards creating a fulfilling lifestyle! 5. Seek Out Wise Mentors Who Can Offer Guidance When Needed. They'll provide invaluable advice whether it's professionally or personally related; their experience will teach you how successful people live their life with commitment and purposeful direction which then leads them to achieve success quicker than those who haven't sought guidance along their journey. 6. Set Specific Goals For Yourself. With clear timelines so that even if something unexpected happens – you know exactly what needs to be achieved during the course of that timeframe in order for your goal(s) to become reality sooner rather than later. Setting achievable goals keeps you motivated but also establishes an organized pathway throughout your journey which makes it easier for others (friends/family) who are supporting you along the way too! 7. Focus On Deepening Knowledge. Either through reading books related specifically to personal development/self-improvement, or listening to podcasts that provide inspiring stories from those who have gone before us; indulging in wisdom like this will give perspective on situations that would otherwise leave us feeling lost without understanding anything else other than what already knew before. Hearing different perspectives such stories could potentially give someone an insight into discovering better solutions quicker thus allowing themselves to move forward quicker instead of spending months or years trying to figure out something which takes minimal effort after learning more facts related to the topic! 8. Don't Forget To Take Risks When Necessary. Remember nothing ventured nothing gained – so don't let fear hold back progress because ultimately success comes from pushing boundaries even though sometimes uncomfortable doing so initially there opportunities could present themselves down the line worth taking even though the unsure journey ahead doesn't look appealing present moment! 9. Share Your Gifts With The World. When you share your gifts with the world, everyone benefits. Plus in sharing your gifts with the world you start to understand more about the aspects of your soul's expression. 10. Cultivate Curiosity Instead Of Judgment Cultivating curiosity instead of judgment is one of the most important steps we can take toward creating a more fulfilling lifestyle. It allows us to look at situations from different perspectives, explore new ideas and consider alternative solutions without immediately passing judgment on them. Curiosity also gives us the ability to learn from our mistakes and develop self-awareness so that we don't repeat them in the future. When we cultivate curiosity rather than judgment, we open ourselves up to opportunities for growth, understanding, and empathy. 11. Be Brave And Willing To Let Go. This can be one of the most difficult things we ever do. It requires us to step outside our comfort zone and take risks, trusting that whatever comes next will be better than what we're leaving behind. But it also offers us the chance to open up new possibilities, create more meaningful relationships with ourselves and others, and live a life full of adventure. Letting go is not only necessary for growth but can bring about immense joy as well. Bravery is an essential part of living a fulfilling life. It takes courage to take risks, trust in the unknown, and push through fear. Bravery allows us to explore new possibilities, create meaningful relationships with ourselves and others, and experience joy despite uncertainties. By cultivating curiosity instead of judgment, we can learn from our mistakes and grow in self-awareness as we embark on our journey toward wellness. Wellness involves understanding that it is okay to let go when necessary and embrace change even if it means stepping outside our comfort zone. Through bravery, we open ourselves up to countless opportunities for growth while also having the chance to live a life full of adventure!

Now, no need to write anything down so if you're driving keep your eyes on the road. If you're walking in the park, which hopefully you are, I hope the sun is shining on your shoulders. No need to write any of this down. You can find everything today over at JoshTrent.com/513. [spacer height="20px"] [04:22] Physical Let's start with the physical. It has been said that "as above, so below", and the soul must connect to and live inside the heart and mostly get out of the mind, but yet, the mind and the heart cannot survive without the physical body. It is the foundation it is the being that we inhabit. It is the only thing we all express from, so the physical takes a very important place in the pentagon, which is why I always start with the physical. It is the floor, it is the root, it is the foundation of all things included in your physical wellness. It is your breath, work, hydration, nutrition, movement, digestion, immunity, and anything and everything that relates to motion, respiration, assimilation, and processing. It is where the brain lives. It is where the heart beats. It is where your blood flows. One thing to really pay attention to when it comes to your physical aspect of the pentagon is to make sure every single day that you take 5, 10, 15, or 30 minutes to consciously breathe and move your body. Now, I know that seems easy you're probably listening to this and saying "Well duh, of course, I need to move my body, of course." but here's the question: are you doing it? Are you placing it in your calendar to make it a priority to consciously breathe like we do in the Breath + Wellness program or move your body out in the arms of nature? I don't care if it's in your freaking hotel room on a 5 or 10-minute break from work, or if you're wearing a tie or dress shirt. None of this matters. Notice that when it comes to nourishing your physical body, the mind will sometimes tell you that it's "not the right time "but it is always the right time to breathe consciously and move consciously. Otherwise, you will be in the control of your unconscious. And your unconscious always wants to rest, always wants to eat the chocolate cake, always wants to chill and take it easy because that is where it feels safe and it does not have to grow and it does not have to do anything that your heart is directing you towards. We'll talk more about heart intelligence when it comes to the spiritual aspect of your wellness. One quick step that I want you to take today if you take an inventory and you realize that from a physical standpoint, you may be carrying extra weight or you have pain or you're dealing with a health issue or you just don't feel well physically would be to take a breath and just be OK with the fact that you are where you are. Shame will not motivate you, or inspire you from this place only truth and acknowledgment of where you are is what will allow you to pick yourself up because no one's coming to save you. If you're struggling physically, make a time and financial investment to purchase a program, and hire a trainer to start with an external framework of accountability where you have to show up because you've paid for something or you have to show up for a workout or a hike or run or exercise with a friend because you don't want to let them down. Sometimes when it comes to stoking yourself physically, the subconscious mind and the neuroplasticity in the brain are so deep that a human being can believe the story that their physical health is not as important as it truly is, and it is these bullshit stories that create terrible results which make people feel stuck. So from this moment right now, I know you can feel it inside of your heart in your body because that's where the change is coming from that wants to be expressed… Right now, lock it in and make an appointment and invest time and money into moving your physical body every single day, and when you do that, it will create a cascade of momentum that will allow you to continue to do it over and over and over again. As a challenge, you can head over to breathwork.io and use the code "PODCAST30". It's the first time I've ever given this big of a discount but I'm doing it because, by the time you're listening to this, you'll need this inspiration more than ever. So use the code "PODCAST30" to save 30% off your three-week breathwork.io journey where I guide you personally to breathe consciously and to move consciously so that you can start expressing this energy and this wellness that has been inside of you for so long. It's my gift to you. Do it right now and if you don't do it with me, do it with someone you're gonna have to make an investment with someone you may as well make it with me you can trust me, I've been there and I'm there for you right now. That is my promise. As we close this short teaching about the physical aspect of your wellness, take stock of how you feel that is going to be the biggest report card about what needs to be changed when it comes to your physical health. It may seem hard, but that is just your subconscious mind creating a story that it's going to be. Taking a walk for most of us is not hard, touching your toes, doing 30 deep breaths, walking up some stairs instead of the elevator, and taking 5 minutes to do some burpees or push-ups or squats is not hard. It's not. It's just that the stories the subconscious mind has been projecting for decades may be telling you that it is. So to get over the story, take accountability to change your story by changing something that you are accountable to someone or something. Maybe it's money, maybe it's time, maybe it's a friend. This is what makes all the difference. I truly believe this, I used to be 280 pounds. I've been there a great resource for you is the breathwork program that I've talked about you can also go to the website JoshTrent.com and just search for fitness and breathwork on the website - there's tons of content there for you. [spacer height="20px"] [11:46] Mental Next is the mental. And this is by far (in order of importance) the second most important thing that you must focus on if you want your physical, spiritual, emotional, and financial wellness to thrive and to be different than how it is today. That's what we all want, isn't it? We all want to reach our potential in all five of these things, but the reason we don't is that we believe stories about why we can't, so let's change that story right here, right now. When it comes to mental health, there are core aspects of the brain, health, cognition, mindfulness, and neuroplasticity that absolutely must be addressed here, and obviously today in this solocast, we are simply identifying and taking a quick inventory with an actionable step for each one today. Obviously, every one of these five sides is a lifetime of work and study but to simplify it because I told you, I would do that, to simplify it every single section in our five sections today will have an inventory identification process, and an actionable step that you can take to get a result right away because results matter results create momentum. In a mental and also emotional inventory, we must identify the stories that we are telling ourselves or the stories that we believe about other people or events or things that are dictating. A quick mental inventory of your belief systems is the only place to start, to start at self-awareness. For example, if you notice that you are quick to judge or quick to anger, it is not just an emotional program that is running. It is a mental program. The only way we can identify that mental program is through increased awareness and I have found that the most powerful tool for increased awareness is to be still. But how do we just choose to be still when we're triggered or when we are at our most mentally stressed? I would argue to say that that's not the best time for you to do it if you're just starting on your journey. If you're a seasoned veteran, maybe that might be the ultimate ninja training for you, but for most of us the best time to be still is first thing in the morning or when you go to bed at night. These are the times when in the morning you can prime your mind we talk about this in the M21 three-week guide that I'm giving to you for free at JoshTrent.com/M21. And the best way to prime your mind is by consciously breathing, followed by bulleting the subconscious mind. Once you have identified the thoughts that you allow yourself to think, the thoughts that you attached to that is in my opinion, the origin of mental health, true mental health comes from true self-awareness. In the bullet journal system that we talk about in the M21 guide you begin by: writing the date of the day the three things you're grateful for the three goals you have for that day the three affirmations and the final question that is the most powerful is who do I get to be today? Who do I get to be today? I know this might sound easy or too simplistic but this is the only way that I have improved my life and created multiple six figures with a woman I love and a family. Do you want one or all of those things? It is my promise to you that the more you do this, the more you bullet, your subconscious mind, the greater mental health you will have, and that mental health will transfer to every other part of your pentagon that is my promise to you. Just a quick note on mental health and psychedelics because it's important. "Just because we can do something, does not mean that we should." The intrusive thoughts we have (not that we are) are designed to keep you safe, in a box, and protected from the risk of freedom and love. The work is about unearthing the old stories, bringing compassion to your scared self, and allowing yourself to feel the old pain and sit with the current fear. Make sure you listen to the entire episode with Scott Jackson titled "Rewire Yourself: How To Create A Life You Love With Freedom From Subconscious Sabotage." You can find it at JoshTrent.com/481. [spacer height="20px"] [16:42] Emotional Next is the emotional. One powerful and very quick way to take an inventory of your emotional state is to do what I like to call the emotional inventory or the EI2 process. A powerful solocast I'm going to link for you is about emotional epigenetics and you can find it at JoshTrent.com/499. This concept of emotional epigenetics is fascinating to me. It's what I'm writing my book on and I think that my life is a byproduct of its expression in me and I know and trust that the way you are with yourself and others has a direct connection to what you have experienced in your life out of the womb, inside the womb, and what you have been imprinted with from your mother, grandparents, great grandparents, going back as far as five generations, or even more. If it is the first time you are hearing this concept about imprinting or epigenetics, then I implore you to go over to JoshTrent.com/499 and listen to the entire solo cast I think it will make a huge impact for you personally with a lot more clarity around how you inherit not just physical characteristics, but also emotional characteristics and ways of being from your lineage. We talk about this concept of "the work "so much and personal development and self-growth but what is it exactly, what is the work? The work is about developing a practice of letting go as an antidote to the wounded self that tirelessly tries to control, and finding the faith and courage to take the risk of opening your heart with your loving, present, available self + partner. The anima and animus are described in Carl Jung's school of analytical psychology as part of his theory of the collective unconscious. Aristotle decided that "Nature abhors a vacuum". Jung described the animus as the unconscious masculine side of a woman, and the anima as the unconscious feminine side of a man, each transcending the personal psyche. Jung's theory states that the anima and animus are the two primary anthropomorphic archetypes of the unconscious mind, as opposed to the theriomorphic and inferior function of the shadow archetypes. He believed they are the abstract symbol sets that formulate the archetype of the self. Once you know how you operate and what you want to operate differently, you can change it but until then you will be repeating over and over again the same triggers, and the same stories that give the same results. If you want new results and I know you do because I have definitely struggled with this concept in my lifetime, I will share with you that the only thing that made a difference was increased awareness and increased inventory. Take the inventory take the emotional inventory over at JoshTrent.com/499. [spacer height="20px"] [20:30] Spiritual Spirituality is often incredibly misunderstood. Religion has trained the world to worship something outside of themselves, and I do believe that there are positive aspects of religion but unfortunately, just like any tool religion has been used to help and harm people for millennia. Traditional Christians, Jewish Islam, and many others do not want to face the fact that in the religious texts, there are many phrases and stories that point to God being inside the human. It is easy to pontificate that there is no meeting to anything so what's the point but that is actually the most powerful part of our human existence is that there aren't any meetings of all this, there really aren't. The one take away, and one challenge that I want to offer to your heart and your hands when it comes to spirituality is this: Can you search way deep down inside yourself blow all the layers of conditioning, below all the layers of shame, or judgment, or stories that you've chosen to believe about yourself or others or the world, and can you find a place where there is absolutely no mental chatter and there is only love? Do that tomorrow morning or even tonight. Sit in your stillness with your breath and no distractions and see if you can find that place I'm talking about. RUMI said something like this: "Beyond the field of right and wrong, there is a field. I will meet you there." Do not concern if you don't know what I'm talking about because going on a spiritual journey is not for everyone, it is not for the victims. It is only for the victors because, at the end of the tunnel, you will find something that is so profound, and so loving, that nothing else will matter. You will find God's love. You have to be prepared for the price to be paid to feel and be in the presence and acceptance of God's love because it will not be like anything you ever thought it was, it will only be exactly what it is. Start your journey toward this understanding with our three-part series with my mentor and friend, Paul Chek, and in this three-part series titled All Is God, and you will understand. This three-part series will ripple across the globe as we share one of the most powerful conversations on this podcast to date. Together, we will explore: Some of the most radical and profound wisdom you will ever hear The concepts of relationship and understanding we have of God. The true definition of L.O.V.E [spacer height="20px"] [24:00] Financial We saved something very important for last. It is a fact that we have all signed up to be here on planet earth at this time otherwise we wouldn't be here and part of that agreement is that in order to have a life well lived we must have an understanding and mastery of financial intelligence, and be financially well. I fought this for so many years... I would cast judgment and throw shadow at successful people, and label them as evil and mean I actually used to think a thought just like this: "Money causes pain and rich people take advantage of other people all they care about is money..." I have now successfully replaced that story with a new story and the new story is something that emanates from my pelvis, solar plexus, heart, and throat which I know you're gonna feel in my new story. It sounds like this: "Money is a vehicle that through its movement and acquisition gives energy to people and things I love and care about." Notice how I did not say that I love money... Even though I do love money, but really when I say, I love money I just love the freedom and the opportunities that money brings. There are so many "spiritual gurus" out there who will tell you that you have to master your money mindset, and that you have to do all of these things from a spiritual level in order to gain wealth, which is true and is also not true. Which is a true paradox. And life is a paradox so I will share this with you from my experience, and from specifically the episode, I would love for you to listen to Robert Breedlove's podcast with me at JoshTrent.com/442. Now that you've begun this journey of the five sides of your wellness pentagon, I'm curious, what came up for you? Or what came down for you? Did you start to feel upset with me? Inspired by me more connected to me tell me what you feel right to me admin@wellnessforce@gmail.com. I'm sending you so much love and so much wellness from my heart tears until I get to be with you again every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday every single week I'm wishing you love and wellness.

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. [spacer height="20px"] PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

Every Thursday I release a solocast, where I share my mental musings, my pontifications, and my passions about something inside of our wellness pentagon, the mental physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial ways of being, tools, and resources that can actually help us move the needle on the ground here with us in the 3-D planet earth. There's a lot of content on the Internet and here on Spotify and Apple that really commoditizes spirituality, but it is my promise to deliver to you today zero appropriation or commoditization and 100% value when it comes to how to identify if you yourself or someone in your life is in need of a rite of passage, what the significance in the meaning of a rite of passage is for both men and women, and lastly, what your ancestors are trying to tell you sometimes with a whisper, and sometimes with a sledgehammer in the stages of your life. [02:18] Traditional Rite Of Passage So let's begin. What exactly is a rite of passage and why is it important for you to know? “The critical problems of becoming male and female, relations within the family, and passing into old age, are directly related to the devices which the society offers the individual to help him achieve the new adjustment.” - Arnold Van Gennep, The Rites of Passage, 1908. Throughout human history, rites of passage have functioned as a tool of maturation for individual renewal and cultural cohesion. To contrast, it is the modernity of western society that provides little to no structure whatsoever for transitioning from one life phase to the next. As a result, without access to solid rituals, young people are desolate, lost, and confused about how to move in a conscious and confident way into the responsibility of being an adult. A right of passage is characterized by three distinct phases that follow Joseph Campbell is hero's journey. The first is separation, where you leave the familiar the next is transition or initiation, which is a time of testing learning and uncomfortable growth, and lastly, the return, which is the incorporation and integration of lessons learned to share with family, friends, and community. Traditionally, a rite of passage is a ritual event that marks a human's transition between childhood and adulthood connection to themselves and to a tribe or social group. A few examples of a right of passage could be an African lion hunt, the ancient Spartans, as seen in the film 300, land diving, which is done by the tribes in the Pacific islands, as well as a bullet ant glove of Brazil, where the Amazonian tribes perform an initiation ritual, forcing young men to place their hands into gloves, filled with hundreds and hundreds of bullet ants for 20 times more pain than being stung by a wasp. Another example could be taking a daughter or son to kill their first animal in a sacred way like a deer elk or moose hunt. And lastly, there is in my opinion, nothing more powerful for us here in the United States than a Vision Quest that is inspired by Native American traditions. Which is 10 days long with 3 days upfront of ego shedding, and intention setting, followed by 100+ hours of fasting completely alone in nature with zero distractions, that's right – no Food no Fire no tent no phone no electronics no writing absolutely nothing besides, you, water, and your breath and thoughts. [05:55] Women's Right Of Passage So now that we have explored the different aspects and definitions of a right of passage, let's talk about how this right of passage applies to women as well. Obviously, there is the beginning of menstruation or in the Mexican culture, they have the Quinceanera, the celebration of a girl's 15th birthday, marking her passage from girlhood to womanhood. But how often do mothers give that to daughters in the western Caucasian culture? Across the world, the feminine traditions of separation, initiation, and return, have been replaced with magazines and social media, and the comparison of young girls' bodies to movie stars. Our traditions and rituals for women have been replaced with comparison and shame by the mass media, so that women can be monetized and shamed about the way their body looks or if they actually want to be a mother. You'll definitely want to check out JoshTrent.com/494 for our episode with Sal Di Stefano from Mind Pump for a deeper dive into this exact topic. [07:38] Are You In Need Of A Rite Of Passage? So, how to identify if you yourself, or someone in your life is in need of a rite of passage? Here are the behaviors to look out for in young men, and unfortunately, even older men who themselves were never taught by their fathers or tribe how to go through a heroes journey of rite of passage: They exhibit a "high chair tyrant" archetype, where nothing could be delivered to them, fast enough, or get enough. You'll know these people when they hide behind a cloak of perfection, and their demands on others are articulated with intensity and anger. Next is that they seem lost in their career or purpose, easily switching from one thing to the next, and never staying still for too long. Their lives are filled with instant gratification, and as soon as things get challenging, they quit or turn the cheek the other way. They have no sense of honor for themselves, they suffer from low self-worth or even self-hatred. They long for positive male figure role models, or female, figure role models, and they project their mother or father wounding onto these role models, unconsciously. Lastly, a symptom of a human being in need of a right of passage is a deep well of hurt in their soul, and the longing for connection to a higher power, to the creator. [09:59] Native Americans And Their Right Of Passage Traditions Now that you know the symptoms and the definition in regards to the right of passage, what is the solution, how does a human being take action, and place themself in the fire for a coming-of-age tradition otherwise known as a right of passage? Well, first, you must listen to what your ancestors are trying to tell you. For thousands of years, our ancestors have left written, artistic, and even in the past hundreds of years, music and recorded voices that all point towards the clues of how to live life well. But living life well when you are a child, it's different than living life well, when you are an adolescent, teenager, young adult, adult, middle age, elder, and senior. All of these life phases have unique and potent lessons of growth and wisdom if a human being is following the map of how to absorb integrate, and embody the wisdom that our ancestors are sharing with us. Across the world, there are many many clues that our ancestors have given us, but just for simplicity's sake, I will focus on the wisdom of the Native American elders, as an example of what our ancestors are trying to tell us... As I mentioned before a vision quest is a right of passage in some Native American cultures. It is typically only done by young males entering adulthood, but we have seen a resurgence because of the atrophy of young women's traditions around entering womanhood, there are many women who embark on Vision Quest as well. Here are the clues, the lessons, and what our ancestors are, trying to tell us spoken through the four Native American values Harmony with nature, the endurance of suffering, respect and non-interference towards others, and a strong belief that man is inherently good and should be respected for his decisions. Native American values lean toward a cosmic identity, a harmony of the individual with the tribe, the tribe with the land, and the land with the spirit of the universe. Central to this quest for harmony is a sense of constancy – the timelessness and predictability of nature as the foundation of existence. This cycle symbolizes eternity- one reality, and it transcends everything in its absoluteness, giving respect to everything. So these whispers, and sometimes the sledgehammers that come, not just from the Native American values, but also from the European, and basically in every continent of the world, the values of our ancestors are always around us if we can be still enough to hear them. Here are some signs that it is time for you, yourself, or someone you know to embark upon a rite of passage, whether they are 13, 15, 55, or 65 there is never a wrong time to embark upon a right of passage. If you cannot remember the last time, you spent time by yourself, or time by yourself in nature, and even the thought of you, being in nature, makes you feel uncomfortable, or brings up fear, it is time for your rite of passage. When you hear the word family, you get uncomfortable or you have a view of what a family actually is, or when you do your emotional inventory process if the sound of the word family makes you angry or sad, it is time to do a rite of passage. If you only are working for retirement, and the thought of working for a purpose is completely foreign to you, it is time to do it right of passage. If you are a hard follower of rules, and you never push your edge, and always be a good little boy, or a good little girl, if you have no idea about the thrill of breaking rules, or the thought of breaking rules, or even questioning authority, scares you, it is time to embark upon a right of passage. And lastly, if you are focused on the youth and you compare yourself to how life was 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50 years ago if you find yourself melancholy and dwelling on the past on a regular basis, and you were unhappy with your present moment and you just can't seem to snap yourself out of depression, or anxiety, it is absolutely 100% time to embark upon a right of passage. [15:22] A Message To Your Subconscious Mind My intention with this solocast was to speak to a deep place in your heart to talk to your subconscious mind to connect with a part of your soul that I have been disconnected myself from many times in life. But right at this moment I can share with you that my heart and your heart are connected, the fact that you are here, listening to me, we are connected, the fact that anything I'm saying is touching your heart, is making you feel emotions, welling up energy inside of you... That is proof that we are connected. I want to inspire you to reach out to me, admin@wellnessforce.com need support in selecting a right of passage or a vision quest I can connect you personally to two guys who have both been on the wellness and wisdom podcast.

PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on. Death & Rebirth: Why I'm Saying Goodbye to Wellness Force...
Wellness + Wisdom Podcast Host and Wellness Force Media CEO, Josh Trent, shares how to identify and get rid of self-sabotage. In this solocast, you will learn: How self-sabotage unconsciously hinders our success. Why wounded ego is the reason why we self-sabotage. The disconnect between what we want and how we show up in our life. How we act out unconsciously what we see from our parents until we heal. The way intimate relationships can drive low insecure attachment style, self-worth, fear of getting heartbroken, and fear of commitment. Cognitive dissonance: Holding two conflicting ideas at the same time, one being conscious and the other one unconscious. How self-sabotage leads to chronic struggles. Procrastination and perfectionism: Trauma response and defense mechanism. How breathing and being still stops self-sabotage, and why we need the courage to turn toward the root of the repeated cycle. What is our self-sabotage wanting to teach us? Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Whether you're hearing this live on the day it's published or years from now, it still has the same weight and the capacity to uplevel and change your life. That is my promise that by the end of this solocast, I'm going to give you an actionable guide, as well as some science and spirituality behind self-sabotage, why we do it, and how we stop the cycle. How do we unhinge from the very thing that we know is causing us pain but we just aren't aware of what the root of that thing actually is? Well, it may seem shocking some people undermined their own good intentions and long-term success goals because self-sabotage occurs in the shadows when people hinder their own success, and take destructive steps without actually knowing it. Maybe some deeper part of them knows it because their harmful behavior shows up as the results of their lives with negative impacts in nearly every part of their existence, including money, relationships, career health... You name it. Self-sabotage shows up in so many deleterious ways. [01:15] Unconscious Destructive Behaviour So first, let's go over why people self-sabotage. People, unconsciously block their progress for so many different types of reasons. They may consciously or unconsciously commit these acts of self-sabotage and the causes range from childhood issues, epigenetics, emotional epigenetics, prior relationships, and heartbreak essentially all the ways that the ego that is wounded tries to stay safe. Other reasons for this destructive behavior stems from low self-esteem, or a sense of not being good enough and coping with cognitive dissonance, which I'll go into in a moment. So if we know what we want and we know what we don't want, then why is there a disconnect between our embodiment of how we show up in the world, and the results of our life? In other words, if we know what we don't want and what we do want then why do we continue to receive what we don't? Well, I will share with you that people who self-sabotage may be aware of their actions, for example, somebody who is overweight and on a diet might consciously sabotage their efforts by eating a whole chocolate cake or staying up till 4 AM, and then eating a whole pizza. Or they might act from an unconscious place where they miss a work deadline which on the surface it seems like they were running late, but the truth is they are afraid of failure, so the human being self-sabotage is by unconsciously missing the due date and bypasses their goal to advance in the company. Difficult childhood growing up in a dysfunctional family can contribute towards a proclivity towards self-sabotage. We act out unconsciously what we see from our parents so without a secure attachment style you might have an ambivalent or vacillation or avoidant attachment style. It's because our earliest engagement and lessons from our parents and caregivers drastically impacted how we connect to ourselves and others. Take an inventory right now, take a deep breath. There's something that you wanted from the solocast and this is the core of how you get it. Question: Did your parents tell you growing up that you'll never amount to much or that you're not good enough or did you have people in your life when you were growing up especially ages 3 through 7, but even 7 through 18, those are the very formative years where neuroplasticity and neurogenesis are in full speed from a brain perspective. In childhood, we are delicate like a rose and require water, sunlight, and nourishment, and if we don't get that emotionally, physically, spiritually, and mentally, then unconsciously, we will act out the exact situations in childhood from an unconscious space until they get healed. [04:32] Relationships And Self Sabotage Here's your first action step: take an emotional inventory. I've talked about this in-depth on the Hypervigilance Solocast, which you can access at JoshTrent.com/490, and also the Emotional Epigenetics Solocast a JoshTrent.com/499 these are two huge scaffoldings that will help you understand this podcast and give you more context on what I am teaching today. Another core root of self-sabotage has been difficult relationships. For example, if your ex-partner consistently put you down, you still might feel bruised or broken in this way. Based on a recent scientific study on self-sabotage from Cambridge University, psychologists who specialized in intimate relationships in Australia identified the main issues for the recurrence of self-sabotage in romantic relationships. The reasons included insecure attachment style, low self-worth, the fear of having their heart broken, fear of commitment, unhealthy, toxic beliefs about relationships, they learn from their parents and society, and coping problems when it relates to matters of the heart. And, lastly, at the root is cognitive dissonance or the mental discomfort that a human being may have when they hold two conflicting ideas at the same time. Humans are pleasure-seeking, and pain-avoidant creatures, who like to have consistency between their beliefs and actions. As an example, if you marry someone you love, but you come from a dysfunctional family where your dad left and your mother went from one abusive stepfather or boyfriend to another… You unconsciously, don't believe in a stable, loving marriage yet continue to plan the wedding and send invitations. Here's another example related to work when it comes to cognitive dissonance. You are about to land a huge client and earn the most money you've ever earned but rather than do what it takes to close the deal you hold yourself back because you don't feel worthy. You might even get drunk the night before or miss the meeting with the potential client completely, and rather than of had to take action to literally shoot yourself in the foot, because on a deep level, you don't feel worthy. Self-sabotage leads to chronic struggles with sex, pornography, drugs, food, alcohol, gambling, shopping, workaholism, and even self-injury. This destructive behavior has topical roots to exactly what we will talk about next. [08:31] Procrastination + Perfectionism Now that we've gone over the science of self-sabotage, let's talk about procrastination and perfectionism, which are really equally deleterious and equally challenging to hold. It has been said that perfectionism is really just a trauma response. A great resource for this is if you head over to JoshTrent.com/461, where I can quote Dr. Wendy Myers: "For many people, perfectionism is a response to trauma. It's not that you just want to do everything perfectly. It's a defense mechanism we create, which can lead to a negative mindset and a constant inner critic." Holding oneself to an impossible standard causes delays in setbacks. Well, it seems like such a positive thing to aim for things to go as planned without any problems, perfectionism is really a belief that if you're seen as imperfect, then you won't be loved. And that's at the bottom of it for me and for all of us. Then there's procrastination, procrastination is a way you show others you're never ready and put off taking your time and being mindful until the last second so you can get that huge rush of energy because really you don't trust yourself to do it without a state of stress. I can see from my own journey with procrastination. It really came from me not feeling that I could handle at all without the stress hormones that drove me to push me beyond my beliefs, and it wasn't until I got down to the core beliefs that if I didn't make as much money as my father than I wouldn't be loved or if I didn't look a certain way physically, then I wouldn't be excepted or sexually attractive all of these things… They lead to procrastination because it is the unconscious projection of the self into the conscious action. [10:38] How To Stop The Self-Sabotage Cycle Now let's break down the spirituality. Whether you believe in past life regression or epigenetic emotional transfer, where five generations of mice have been proven in scientific studies to exhibit trauma-based behavior, you have to realize that in this lifetime there is so much more than you see. So your next action step when it comes to a spiritual inventory of why you self-sabotage, and how to stop the cycle is to simply breathe and be still. You heard that right, breathe and be still. You're with me right now for a reason otherwise you would not be hearing my voice and so I'd like you to take three deep breaths with me. Now, after these three deep breaths, put your hand on your body where you feel the most pressure or tension, or discomfort. Maybe it's your hips, your glutes, your stomach, your throat, your forehead, your shoulders... Wherever you feel the most tension, go there right now and do three more deep breaths. Notice, the voice that I speaking to you is the same voice that is inside of you because you and I all come from the same place, the same creator of the same omnipresent, loving energy that has created all things and always has been. Let go of any dogmatism, religious training, spiritual or amygdala hijacking from the media, and just be with me right now take three more deep breaths. Notice, the only way you can stop a cycle from repeating is to have the courage to turn towards where the cycle comes from in the first place. And when it comes to spiritual inventory, the first place you must begin is at the altar of humility and forgiveness. Yes, people can treat self-sabotage by examining the root causes and stopping procrastination and looking at the bigger picture, and potentially even letting go of perfectionism as a coping mechanism for trauma. But the deeper more spiritual questions, you can ask right now in the stillness with your hand on your heart and the breath in your lungs is this. What is my self-sabotage wanting to teach me? (You may sit with this for moments or hours.) Is this feeling familiar? Have I felt this feeling before and can I go to the very first time I ever felt this feeling, right now? Can I trust myself to go to the very first time I ever felt this feeling right now? This memory, this event that you have been carrying for so long is asking for forgiveness and possibly asking for rest. In order to rest, you must lay something down, you must let go. What is it that you must let go of, and how can you ask the creator to give you the courage to let it go? And now we are at the end of our time together but we will return next week for another series of emotional intelligence to support you on your path And as we say goodbye notice you are loved you are supported, and with the right questions in the right stillness you can hear the voice of God, the creator, and you will always be on the right path.

What the heck is vibration? Today on Solocast, I'm going to answer that question in depth and so much more. As I talk about the true essence behind frequency. We all know about the levels of consciousness that we've heard about with the lower self-being 20 resonating shame or 1,000 for consciousness when you look at David Hawkins's work. But beyond Hawkins's work in the levels of consciousness, what does it mean when your nervous system, your mind, and really the essence of your soul get a good gut feeling or a bad guy feeling about a person, place, or thing? By the end of the Solocast, my promise to you is that you'll have a true understanding of Hawkins's levels of consciousness, how this relates to your own personal life, and most importantly what you can do with this concept of vibration to bring you more fulfillment in the five aspects of your wellness pentagon. If you're joining us for the first time, this may or may not be the best place for you to start you can check out our full guest interviews every Tuesday and on Thursdays, we do this Solocast, which is like the mental musings where I get to pontificate and project all the things that I am fascinated about when it comes to wellness. So if you're a wellness dork or if you're an enthusiast like me, every single episode on Thursday is going to be really really good because it's just me going forward with notes and kind of off-the-cuff, really authentic, sometimes vulnerable. I've cried in a few Solocasts, which is a good thing, especially for men. [01:50] Emotional Frequency Scale So you heard that right? Everybody has a vibe that impacts us. What does frequency actually mean? Are you aware that in the world the globe vibrates at a hertz frequency that's either subtle, imperceptible, or corresponds to an individual vibration? Sometimes unnoticeable. You read that correctly. Everybody has a basal metabolic rate (BMR) and the rest but when life events occurred, and emotions are involved this vibrational rate changes dramatically and quickly. So, just like a child, which is the best way to learn; approach things with a heart and mind of a child, and as an adult with your own life experience, the big question for me is when it comes to frequency or emotional frequency: What is the missing link between heart rate variability, resting metabolic rate, otherwise known as RMR, and vibration to create vibrant health? Essentially, what can we learn about heart rate variability, resting metabolic rate, and the emotional frequency scale, or vibration in order for us to connect the dots and create better health from how our emotions dictate, and vice versa, our physiology? The snake eating its tail... Due to its potential to really make you a better version of yourself, it's crucial to comprehend the emotional frequency chart. Let's talk about this, I'm going to reference this at JoshTrent.com/504. There is a map here from nondualitylife.com to give them credit, it is a wonderful map. At the bottom of it is shame, at the top, it is full consciousness. What does that really mean? It means that every emotion has a frequency that it vibrates at and that we experience. In other words, a level of consciousness. I believe that Hawkins measured this in consciousness but you and I can also measure this in hertz. Hertz is something that tracks how many times something moves in one second. We've all heard about the Schumann resonance, or 432 frequency, or 556. There are many different frequencies that are used for Binaural Beats and Isochronic technology for giving people relaxation and the nervous system through sound. But how does understanding the emotional frequency chart help you become a better you? In today's society, people really aren't taught important life skills. Definitely not in school, and sometimes not at home, except for in our homes because you and I are very conscious so we do teach emotional frequency. And I'm going to unpack the layers of this today but a bigger question rises here as we pause. [04:40] David Hawkins + Expression Of Our True Nature Now that you know the frequency chart from Hawkins and you understand that this level of consciousness can go all the way down to 20 Hz or 20 vibrations per second to 1000 vibrations per second for, a consciousness. What do all the stages between 20 and 1,000 truly mean? The victim abuse or consciousness from 20 Hz all the way to 200 the self-empowerment from 250 all the way to 400. And of course, the self-realization from 440 all the way to 1,000 is what allows people to go from hell to purgatory in between paradise and heaven. This is the conceptual framework that was developed by David Hawkins MD Ph.D. after a ton of research over 40 years of research. It looks at various mental states and psychological states as they connect to, and corresponds to the different levels of consciousness from 20 to 1,000. The approach is not very new anymore but it was new when it first came out. It is very much in line with the current wisdom traditions where higher levels of consciousness are used to correspondingly connect to greater psychological integration, and really just harmony with life. This conceptual approach delineates how one moves from the lower self or the smaller self. The lower one takes more scarcity-based states of consciousness to a higher self, or what Hawkins calls the absolute high. And through this journey, various conditionings, some scars along with different impurities, start to melt away. In the process really dismantles and purifies human beings allowing for a greater expression of our true nature, the level of the human. The model is an expression of the relative, so it is not to be taken as the expression of absolute truth, because we fluctuate through this level of consciousness, all day long. There are certain people, though that have certain characteristics of always being negative, always vibrating down at the victim consciousness, and we feel tired because I know you can relate to this when we are in their presence. [06:57] Resting Metabolic Rate We know that the resting metabolic rate is a number that dictates how many calories a human being will consume completely at rest with no fidgeting, no exercise, just if you were to sit on the couch for the entire day, sleep, eat food, drink water, and literally not lift a finger for an entire 24 hour period. That would be your resting metabolic rate. So what is it that dictates are resting metabolic rate? Well, science would say it's your height, weight, age, gender, ethnicity, diet, activity level, and muscle... But I also believe that the thermic effect of food and a concept called the non-exercise movement or non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT), which is fascinating. This is knowledge from my old personal training days… So to calculate RMR, you would essentially put your factors into a calculator and you get a caloric number somewhere around 2000 cal or so depending on your physiology. So the answer to this, and this is what I'm going to prove to you today on this podcast... if somebody eats a perfect caloric diet and they are exercising well and they're doing the mouth of calories in calories out with their RMR then why is it that people still don't lose weight or gain muscle? What I'm going to hypothesize today is that you trust the connection between emotional frequency, HRV, RMR, and how every single one of them affects one another. [08:33] Heart Rate Variability Let's go into an HRV. Now that we've talked about RMR, HRV is heart rate variability. It is the amount of time in between the beats of your heart and sciences show that a greater score of HRV can be in prime indicator of how long you live, how healthy you'll be, and even four diseases and afflictions like CHD, diabetes, and so many more. So now that you know what HRV is what increases your HRV score? In other words, what gives you a more diverse score around HRV? With HRV being the measure of variations in between each heartbeat measured in time, this variation is controlled by a very ancient part of the nervous system, called the autonomic nervous system, otherwise known as the ANS. We've talked about the autonomic nervous system very in-depth in our BREATHE: Breath & Wellness program, which you can be a part of. This conversation is geared towards that because I believe it is the breath that can set you free, and it is the breath that can increase your HRV, support your RMR, and be the fuel for your emotional frequency scale. I think they all connect, and I'm going to prove that today. So if the autonomic nervous system is housed in two compartments, one being sympathetic, one being parasympathetic, otherwise known as relaxation or fight or flight on the other side, then the brain is constantly millions and millions and millions of times per day processing information in a part of your brain called the hypothalamus. Here are the keys of vibrational habits which I'm in a moment going to tie to emotional frequency and the Hawkins scale. Here are the low-frequency habits that are coming from scarcity, coming from potentially just hedonism or apathy that drive a very low HRV score. The first is poor sleep, followed by alcohol, then smoking cigarettes, low physical activity, stress management, excessive caffeine, very poor posture, and of course, eating a diet that is not organic, and also genetics. There are some people that have a positive or negative impact via HRV and we know the HRV tends to naturally go down as we get older, but it doesn't have to it absolutely does not have to. As I mention chronic health conditions like diabetes, hypertension, anxiety, depression, and pulmonary disease, all of these things even medication's that people are taking or if you live in hot climates. I live in Austin and I would guess that most people's HRV score is lower because it's a super hot climate and makes you think about where you wanna live, right? [11:05] Low Frequency: Hypervigilance + Unprocessed Trauma So now that we've unpacked HRV and RMR, and we've given you the beginning of the frequency scale, let me pull this all together, my friend. You're really going to enjoy this. Bare with me, we're about to go deep because we store unfavorable feelings very deep. We follow instructions and perform as intended until the program is terminated, and a new one is installed, but by the time we reach adulthood, we have so many unresolved issues that the majority of our reactions are inherently negative. These reactions are then in charge of unfortunate circumstances. That simply serves to confirm what we "already knew" from the past and distracts us in a vicious loop of emotional incidents, most of which are based on long-forgotten recollections from the past. So essentially the frequency of experiences, the frequency of emotions that are unfavorable from the past are literally driving the current moment because the body doesn't know any different, the body is a minor connected to all of this and this is what leads to hypervigilance. You can learn more about hypervigilance by going over to JoshTrent.com/490 where I go in-depth about the subconscious strategy for survival and what I believe mental illness is a symptom of in regards to hypervigilance and so much more than that. So these feelings of being a victim, combined with the assessment of others, evaluating oneself in relation to others, or comparing yourself to other people, is really a nervous system's tool for analyzing vibration. In other words, we project onto others what we feel about ourselves. So if I feel hypervigilant or non-trusting I'm going to unconsciously project that onto the person in front of me or the situation in front of me, and then that affects clearly my HRV and absolutely my resting metabolic rate because I'm going to need more calories, I'm not going to sleep as well, and I'm going to be shifted over to my sympathetic more throughout the day, which is the opposite of what the nature intended. But it's only when we embark on a journey of searching for the way of loving techniques and information and tools that we can begin, letting go of the lower frequency of these lower emotional reactions. This is a path that involves our whole lives and has a direct connection to love and complementing ourselves every time we manage to overcome these, potentially stressful situations, but really, they're not because we are choosing based on our past conditioning to make them three for 10 times more stressful than they actually are. So let's bring it home. Here the emotional frequency chart and Hawkins's work show the hertz frequency rate of this vibrational analysis all the way from low emotions to high. As the rate of vibration goes lower the extent of consciousness as well, and this is very key, the ability to deal with situations or things in a positive way is drastically reduced, which limits our discernment to respond or be responsible, which I've talked about many times on this podcast there is a difference between responsibility and being response-able. So when we find ourselves stuck in the spiderweb of the frequencies, like grief and shame and lying and deceit, it might seem so difficult and almost impossible to overcome things. But look, in this world, we are very fortunate to be here with each other right now. You are part of the solution, the fact that you were even listening to the Solocast means you are already on the way, my friend. You are already on the way and you are going through it because the only way out is through. Your resolve and your intelligence that was up leveled today now that you understand the connection between HRV and RMR, the academic science terms, and the actual emotional signature and quotient of the frequency scale. Combine these two things, and understand that you are a soul having a human experience inside of a body, and the more you can dive in and understand the emotional frequency chart the less you can put down your Oura Ring, put down your Woop, put down all the things that track your HRV and track your sleep and track your stuff. Because you and I both know those are external mirrors of mindfulness and all they're already doing is reminding you about the way that you already feel. It is only when we look within without judgment, with compassion for ourselves, that we can let go of the negative emotional attachments that keep us bathing in scarcity. And bathing at the bottom of the victimhood in those lower emotions of 200 all the way down to 20. [16:40] What Is Your Emotional Frequency? So here is the action plan. First, take an emotional inventory I talked about that at JoshTrent.com/490. Take the emotional inventory to identify what beliefs you have or what emotions you're experiencing and then write your number down after each one and see where you fall. Are you in the category of victim, abuse, or consciousness? Are you in the category of self-empowerment? Are you in the category of self-realization the majority of the time? If you are, write to admin@wellnessforce.com and let me know. We'd love to interview you on this podcast so we can all learn from you. But for the rest of us, where we bounce around from 20 to 202, 50 to 440, with the occasional 440 all the way up to 1,000. What we all need is a deep breath, space and compassion, and love for ourselves so we can stop making science our God and start making the creator our God. Because the creator is all that ever has been what is here now and always shopping. Whether you're spiritual, scientific, religious, or atheist. It doesn't matter because the energy that brought you here is the energy that guides and loves all things. And so it is with that awareness that I leave you with a challenge. Listen to JoshTrent.com/490, and go and sign up for the Breathe program at breathwork.io. Use the code "PODCAST25" for 25% off and take yourself through three weeks of true emotional inventory, through breathwork, and unpack a lot of this victim abuse or consciousness from 200 down to 20. And then write to me at admin@wellnessforce.com. Know how you're feeling let me know the impact of this solo cast and let me know how much you love yourself and how much you love others with this new state of consciousness and this new awareness. I trust that was helpful. I know it was if you're still with me because there's a part of your soul that's absorbing this and taking this to heart. This is Food for your soul, nourishment for your heart, and an action plan for your mind. And until I see you again and I'm wishing you love and wellness.

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

Why we should avoid using sunscreen with aluminum. How breathwork stimulates the vagus nerve. Electronic stimulation of the vagus nerve.

In this solo Stacey episode, we cover: How childhood birthday celebrations raise the bar on birthday expectations, making it difficult to swallow a low-key, adulthood birthday.What do birthdays look like when you become a mom? (Especially in those early days).Stacey's perfect birthday “me day” + Dozens of ideas from listeners on how to indulge yourself on your birthday, even when you're a mom.How can we change perspective on our birthdays and make it more about celebrating ourselves (because we're amazing and we deserve it)How can we stop waiting for our birthdays to celebrate ourselves?About Stacey:Stacey Hutson, co-host of the Mother Plus Podcast is a mother + writer, entrepreneur, and athlete. She is a mother to two could-not-be-more-different daughters, ages 2 and 5. Though they are adorable, hysterical, and quite possibly creative geniuses, she's not here to talk about them. Before-Children Stacey couldn't stop talking about her future children. And by now, she thought she'd be totally immersed in motherhood, happily sitting on the floor, “doing voices,” tickling tummies, and trying desperately to hold on to every precious moment.But instead, she found herself on that same floor reminiscing about the days when she was a writer (published in Paleo Magazine, Hub Spot, New You Magazine, and TheList.com), an ad girl (working on brands like Revlon, Green Toys, Enjoy Life, and Eco Tools), and health nut badass (with a successful food blog, health coaching certification, and stint as a personal chef).Stacey finally got tired of daydreaming about the woman she wanted to be, and did something about it by creating the Mother Plus Podcast. Next on the list for her is to learn hip hop dancing, revisit one of her favorite places in the world - the Karaoke stage, and finally publish one of the three books safely saved in her Microsoft Word documents for nobody to see.For more about the Mother Plus Podcast, visitwww.MotherPlusser.comhttps://www.instagram.com/mother_plus_podcast/

We're told in the USA that we're so divided... yet if you go to any sort of normal event in the country, everyone's not really having a problem at all with each other. This work has taken me to a lot of different places including inner-city America and that has been different. I never would have done that otherwise and it has been a big eye-opener. It has really helped me to understand those environments and where people are coming from a lot better. - Peter Santenello Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

What inspires Peter to share his work with a middle point of view rather than just one side over the other. Examples of how his investigative journalism has shifted his point of view on certain topics that he was biased about before talking to people.

"There are some great journalists out there but as far as mainstream media, you know exactly what you're going to get in any topic. If it's the border, if you watch FOX or CNN, you know the story they're going to tell you with either one. With any current issue, you know exactly what's going to be delivered." - Peter Santenello On a Mission for Truth "Right now with the space that we're in with politics with our two parties, Republican and Democrat, there are usually about five main issues and if you fall out of line with one them, you're going to get ostracized quickly. If I go film at the Mexican border right now, I'll be called a Trumper -people will say, 'Oh! You're going to the border, you must be a Trump supporter.' But then if I go do a docu-series about Muslims in America, all of a sudden I'm like a 'woke' guy. I'm just interested in the story and the truth; I don't really fit into either of the categories." - Peter Santenello How to Make a Difference in the World "I think putting forth your best effort and, personally for me, exploring the human condition as much as I can and adding to the world in a positive way is the way to live life. My mission is to put out content that after watching it makes a person go, 'Oh cool, I see this issue a different way now,' or 'This has left me in a better mood.' We're all gravitated toward certain news clips we come across on YouTube or social media and we want to watch them but afterward, they leave us off in a worse place energetically than before watching them. My goal is to be the opposite of that for people." - Peter Santenello Links From Today's Show Peter Santenello on YouTube Official Website of Peter Santenello The Map of Consciousness Explained: A Proven Energy Scale to Actualize Your Ultimate Potential by David R.

Ask yourself the right questions. Instead of asking yourself this unanswerable question all the time, 'Why them and not me? Why don't I have this? Why didn't I have this?' and using up all of your energy on the idea that life is just unfair ask yourself this: 'Do I want to be a victim all my life and sit around feeling sorry for myself?' Flip the switch and tell yourself, 'Okay, these were the cards that I was dealt. What can I do?' Place yourself back in the driver's seat and put that ball of empowerment back in your court. Take that kind of mentality and just run with it. You can do anything. - Liz Swail Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Hawkins Why a low level emotion like despair has to be experienced in order to get to courage. The moment in Liz's life when she realized that having a title and money wasn't sucess for her. Why it's so beneficial to ask yourself question prompts + why it's okay if you don't answer them until later. 384 Shawn Stevenson | Eat Smarter: Use the Power of Food to Reboot Your Metabolism, Upgrade Your Brain, and Transform Your Life How deep contrast is so vital to propel us to something better or some type of growth journey. The moment Josh realized that having judgement about people with money and opportunities was actually blocking him from achieving those things as well. Why many people who do come from money don't always have a success story because they lack awareness and values. [21:00] Breaking Your Negative Mindset + Behavior Cycles How to get out of victim mode by asking yourself these questions according to Liz. Liz's personal mission to help break negative cycles such as mistrust, addiction, and poor health with empowering questions. What Liz's childhood and observing her grandparents taught her about emotional intelligence and love. How Liz felt lost during university, her skill sets, and what she should do with her life.

Why it's so easy to blame caregivers and the people around you for your childhood environment but it's actully disempower and not the right energy to use to help you forward. The fact that less than 1% of all disease is based on your genetics and that means you have tremendous power over your outcome. Why our sickcare system isn't giving people the actual help that people need. 140 Unconventional Medicine – Chris Kresser [30:00] Never Rob Someone of Their Process Different wellness services they offer at Alive + Well to help people on their health journeys from functional medicine to vitamin shots to relaxing spa packages. Alive + Well's mission to help people find and heal themselves if and when they are feeling lost. 277 How To Access Your Inner Coach: Christine Hassler Why it's so important to never rob someone of their process and you cannot force them to heal; they have to do it on their own terms and when they're ready for it. What therapies can help someone get their emotional energies unstuck and back into motion. Her father's experience being a drug addict, his recovery process, and her amazement at the life he's living today after being addicted for over 4 decades.

Why Alive + Well is not like other places; especially when it comes to individual attention and treating you like a person rather than a number.

How to make wellness like a fun hobby: something that you enjoy and can geek out on so that you're actually enjoying the journey. [38:00] How Shroom Tea Helped Liz's Breakthrough Her experience trying shroom tea for the first time while living in the Caribbean and how that helped her have a personal epiphany and boost her confidence. 462 Ben Greenfield: Should You STOP Using Plant Medicines? Wisdom on Microdosing, The Muscle of Faith + How to Grow Your Spiritual Strength Her past practice of building another life in her mind to get away from coping with her reality at the time and sharing these made-up stories with other people until the shroom tea helped her realize that she didn't need to do that.

Unpacking Liz's recent move to Dallas with her family and the current healing spiral she is facing right now. Her childhood habit of detaching herself from a current situation and how that is showing up now for her. Why she thinks it's very important to cultivate discipline in life because it will show up for you all of the time once it's a habit compared to motivation. What Liz does to manage her dark thoughts and why it's so important not to judge yourself for having those thoughts but just let them pass through you, acknowledge that they're there but not forever, and important questions to ask yourself. How developing good habits when you're healthy and in a good mindset will help carry you when you're not in that space of wellness. 423 Ryan Duey | Ice Baths: Cold Therapy For Weight Loss, Immunity, Metabolism & Mental/Emotional Health Why doing the cold plunge helps Liz so much when she is in a fight or flight mode.

What Liz does to show up as the best version of herself that she can be for her children in order to protect and support them. Why our children serve a purpose of reminding us what life is all about in the end. How and why we have moved away from the importance of family because of our current society and government. Common roots of important pieces of history including communism and the Holocaust that all started with dividing families. Why Liz believes that we all have holes in our hearts right now that we need to fill ourselves with the love and light of spirituality, a Higher Power, or God - whatever you believe in to feel whole and help one stay grounded. How removing God or Higher Power and spiritual beliefs plus feeding people junk food along and keeping them sick while also dividing families also leads to people being easily controlled according to Liz. [1:05:00] Building Powerful Connection Within Ourselves and with Our Partner How gender dysphoria and confusing children's psyche as young as four years old is priming them for the brokenness that will need to be healed as adults yet some never truly heal. The detachment Liz faced when she was touched inappropriately by men when she was a kindergartner. How the pursuit of sole pleasure and no connection can break down one's humanity. 379 Drew Manning | How To Be Fit After 40: Why Drew Gained 75 Pounds on Purpose (Again!) Josh and fellow podcasters who have been addicted to porn for so long plus their journey being open about it. The intense experience Josh had with an Ayahuasca ceremony that did not go well and he ended up absorbing a dark entity that led to a psychic break. Paul Chek | All is God How Josh consciously chooses to be with Carrie and their son rather than allow thoughts about porn take over his control. [1:12:30] The Evolving Wellness Journey + Cultivating Purpose Struggles Liz still faces today and that she is open about sharing with the world. How Liz has learned to love herself and the gifts that she does have instead of comparing herself to other people. What they do at Alive + Well to help people get well enough that they can step into their purpose and fully express themselves. The different layers of Liz, the time it took to get her health to where it is today, and why wellness is a never-ending journey for all of us. The fact that you can go in on something with a goal but you cannot be attached to the outcome and Liz explains why that is true. Why she believes it's so important to believe in some sort of power and embrace how incredible it is that we are a moment but there is something eternal. [1:17:45] Unblocking Irrational Fear to Let Go of Trauma Her relationship with fear as she moves through the things that she is responsible for every day. How her husband, Michael, has helped her alleviate the fears she never thought she would get rid of like not being supported. Questions she asks herself to help her unpack her fears in order to heal and move past them. How doing a holotropic breathwork experience helped her do some intense inner child work. Why a lot of our angry emotions and behaviors come forward because of the fear we had as children. The importance of uncovering your biggest irrational fears in order to finally not allow it to hijack your thinking and let unresloved trauma go. How she defines wellness and what living a life well looks like to her especially after her mother passed away. Power Quotes From The Show Embracing the Whole Journey: Good Times + Bad Times "A society, we're in this pursuit of zero discomfort and instant gratification but without that contrast and journey we can't show up in an authentic way for other people. We can't show up in a powerful way for other people. If we can change that and allow ourselves to feel both the good and the bad, the comfort and discomfort so that we can be empowered." - Liz Swail How to Control + Heal Fearful Thoughts "When you're fearful of something, you can't think of anything else. It's that inner questioning of 'What's going to happen if...?' and your brain is constantly spinning and spending energy on it. It's a waste because then you can't think of anything else like creating something bigger and better. So, recognize that fear when you feel it, don't be upset about it, and ask yourself why you're feeling afraid." - Liz Swail Get Closer to Your Inner Child with Breathwork "What inner child ideas are coming up when you are afraid, angry, or anxious? Personally, I never understood or did inner child work until I tried holotropic breathing. I sobbed like I never did before and I could see myself at 5 and 7 being hurt by other people. That helped me to say to my inner child, 'I'm so sorry that happened to you little Liz,' and recognize how some fear had manifested in me from a very young age. When you act a certain way like snapping at your spouse it is almost always related to a fear." - Liz Swail Links From Today's Show Liz Swail RUNGA 400 Cal Callahan | The Great Unlearn: How To Find Your Purpose & Redefine Success The Map of Consciousness Explained by David R.

Liz had a complicated journey into the health and wellness space, as growing up she experienced a turbulent home life, disordered eating, suicidal thoughts, and poverty. Childhood: comparing the “then” and “now” of her life, touching on how she transformed her own health by making changes over time. The benefits of giving up gluten and alcohol, and the long-term benefits that you'll see if you invest time and effort into your weightlifting regime. Liz balanced her strength training around her two pregnancies, and she managed to keep training right up until giving birth. Liz says that her Christian faith plays in her life and encourages listeners to find a higher power so that they're not the center of their own universe.

In a world that is left brain dominant, I have found that plant medicines have illuminated the path for me to connect deeply to my own innate intelligence & as a result, they have opened up the opportunity to have a nice cosmic giggle from time to time from the incredible gift that is the innate intelligence of the human mind, body & spirit. - Ryan Sprague Speaking to my own experiences within the realm of plant medicines, I have found one of the most potent effects from these experiences to be the ability for me to deepen my physical, emotional, mental & spiritual intelligence. For me, intelligence has been far more profound than knowledge, as while knowledge is defined as the collection of skills & information a person has, intelligence is directly related to how an individual applies his or her knowledge to their experience of life. Stopping by to share his time & wisdom with us today on the show is an individual who has made it his life mission to help others gain physical, emotional, mental & spiritual intelligence in the important work he creates in the world.

He is also a dedicated father & husband & is passionate about guiding others who are looking to increase their quality of life through his free guides & the incredible community & tribe he has created by joining like minded individuals together to support one another in their experience of life & if all of that wasn't enough, he is also someone who has benefitted from the conscious, intentional use of plant medicines. Within this episode, we will be diving into some of these experiences, the notion of less being more within the plant medicines space & what his experiences have allowed for within his journey of life.

If you don't go fight your battles and you're always open heart full time no matter if it kills you, if you don't go do what you're supposed to do on this planet - you have an energy inside of you and the obstacles that you face in your life are there to test that energy and if you avoid those obstacles, the energy turns in.

Listen To Episode 468 As Joseph Anew Uncovers: [1:30] How to be an Intuitive Warrior Today Joseph Anew RUNGA Spartan Race Intuitive Warrior Podcast Heartful: Practices to Awaken the Heart BREATHE. | Joe DiStefano | TEDxLugano Exploring how to be an intuitive warrior in our modern era and why it's such a challenge for many people. 375 Bizzie Gold: Break Method | Why Instinct And Intuition Are Not The Same (Rewiring The Subconscious) Breaking down how intuition is different from instinct. Why intuition gets stronger the more and more you use it. How Joseph has grown his intuitive muscle rather than just doing what his higher self wanted him to do. The fact that you can test your intuition through muscle testing. Paul Chek Joe Dispenza Why the future of healing comes down to frequency and vibration. [8:00] Joseph's Evolution + Hero's Journey from 3 Near Death Experiences Leonidas I Why Joseph decided to change his name, especially because of his son. Joseph's horrific accident when he actually fractured his skull. The inner strength Joseph found within as he began to heal and be his own support system. His mission to help everyone around him become stronger as he began to recover but deep down he really wasn't fine. The doctors that helped him and his decision to move to the island of St. John for a while after learning he was going to be alright after his accident after all. Why his parents weren't able to give him the support he needed but he has made peace with that. The various other accidents Joseph has been through from cracking his teeth to breaking his ribs to dislocating his shoulder. Joseph's first experience during an epic obstacle race and how it connected him to himself. Why actually just showing up to a Spartan event is half the battle of attending it. [20:00] How Obstacles Test our Energy + Purpose 086 Creating The Unbeatable Mind With Mark Divine 410 Mark Divine | Positive Neurodiversity: Kokoro Spirit, The 5 Mountains For Inner Peace, & How To Fulfill Your Potential Joseph's incredibly close relationship with his grandfather. His first spiritual awakening walking into his grandfather's home for the first time in 10 years after he passed away. Why the obstacles we face in life are there to test our energy and purpose. The importance of not avoiding the obstacles you face in life. Paths to God: Living the Bhagavad Gita by Ram Dass His obstacle in trying to read Paths to God and what important message came from that for his journey. What steps you can take to find your dharma or purpose by tuning inwards. Alan Watts The aiming issue that many people face when trying to figure out and live by their dharma. [28:30] How to Become the Frequency of Change How Joe Dipsenza's work has greatly impacted Joseph's journey. Where Joseph is at now compared to before having his frequency shift with Joe Dispenza's work. Why the phrase from Dispenza, "Be the frequency of change," has been so helpful for his growth. Arnold Patent Eckhart Tolle Tony Robbins Why acting like all of your dreams and goals have come true is so powerful. Their decision to ask people to fill out applications to be accepted to attend RUNGA. Breaking down how the heart acts as a magnet. The difference between the idea of 'law of attraction' and true sending and receiving messages on a higher frequency. [34:40] The Cataclysmic Event of Leon's Birth The incredible cataclysmic event Joseph experienced with the birth of his son while at the hospital during CV 19 lockdowns in Luxembourg. Josh and Carries own birth experience with Novah. Britta Bushnell Transformational Birth Course Why he recommends Britta Bushnell's Transformed by Birth course to help parents prepare for the unknown. The heightened intuition both Joseph and Josh felt as their sons' births got nearer and nearer. Nathan Riley, MD, FACOG The OBGYN physician that helped Carrie and Josh immensely with Novah, Dr. Nathan Riley. How modern western medicine has really robbed the birth experience from women and the family. The multi-hundred billion dollar industry that grabs very high-level plasma stem cells from the baby's umbilical cord and placenta. How Joseph and his wife, Emilía, have made peace with Leon's birth experience and they're so grateful to have a healthy son. Why a person's birth experience is often reflective of the life journey that they're going to have in their time on earth. Joseph's mission to be a warrior and protect Leon with all that he has especially with how the birth went for them. [46:30] Growing a Greater Capacity for Love Esther Perel What lessons we can learn from our parents, how their generation is different than ours, and what gifts they gave us while alive for us to pass on to future generations. The Dark Night of the Soul that Joseph went through when his father died in 2017. Why the healing journey all comes down to ourselves and the individual path we go on in life. How Arnold was like a surrogate father figure for Joseph when he seeked out his mentorship. 463 JP Sears | This Is How Media HIJACKS Your Mind: Stop Censoring Yourself & Heal The Tyrant Within The power of breath and being aware of active breathing and moments when it becomes constricted based on the energy we're feeling or what we might have just listened to or read. How Joseph grew a greater capacity for love after the death of his father. What true duality is and why we need to experience the dark to know and understand the light, joy, and how to love. How RUNGA has been created to be a transformational experience to help people grow and achieve greater abundance and step into themselves. [56:15] Joseph's Top Mental + Emotional Tool Sets Why healing and doing the inner work shouldn't be forced and that was an important lesson for Josh to learn when he changed the podcast from Wellness Force to Wellness + Wisdom. Byron Katie's Four Model Questions and why Josh (and others) feel that they push shame on people when used in a general way. Josh's experience at RUNGA and all of the different activities that they did. Why certain life experiences or moments in life call for one set of wellness tools over another and how to know when to use each one. How detours and blocks pop up when we misinterpret our energy and look too much back into our wounding. Why sometimes we don't need to keep processing a certain energy but go and use it through an activity such as mountaineering in Joseph's case. The incredible biohacking tools and supplements we have available today to help us keep our health in check and beyond yet we're going backwards at the same time. MitoZen 436 Dr. John Lieurance | Melatonin Miracle: Supra-Physiologic Dosing, Sinus Health & Ending Inflammation How sound and stillness will be the next important wellness practices that Joseph believes we will be going back to for healing. Why you need to employ the power of a thunderbolt or sound and vibration when you're going to make a real change in your life. [1:06:00] The Heart is the True Brain The different rites of passage for both men and women and why a vision quest is one way to experience it. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) and why it's an incredible tool to keep the body in sync and essentially the true brain. HeartMath's research and how the heart gives off so much more energy than the brain and the communication is from the heart to the brain; not the other way around. The blood pressure wave in the HRV and why it's the reason he believes the three strongest emotions - anger, fear, and sexual energy can switch in a moment. Why Joseph believes that it is attainable to live in joy all of the time despite the duality we live and experience. How HRV is a reflection of our mood and state of being plus why an elevated average is best. The fact that the roof of our mouth has 83 acupuncture points and every sound we make has a frequency. Why so many yogis change their names after years of practice. Joseph's belief that we can check all the boxes and try to follow logic but heart and intuition is the only true path. Why our partners act like a mirror and bring up all the things we need to work on for ourselves. What the neck up approach to loving and dating looks like plus why it's not the same as true intimacy. [1:15:00] Why + How We Choose Our Life Partners How Joseph's wife, Emilía, came into his life to help him do the inner work and in the end he became Joseph Anew. Josh and Carrie's similar relationship story and how they help each other grow. Paleo(Fx) Why Joseph was so sure that he was going to marry Emilía the moment he met her at Paleo(Fx). The idea that maybe we already choose a life partner that levels us up to the point where the things that are hurting us on a subconscious level are going to help us flush those out. Why love isn't always enough; we need to be with someone that will challenge us and make us better. Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives by Michael Newton Why being open and intuitive are so important because people and signs are the map even when things don't make sense. How we're matched up with a life and life experiences based on what we're only able to handle plus learn in this lifetime and the next one. [1:25:00] The Key to Finding Purpose + Gaining Mastery The power of exploration and learning different things in life rather than just zeroing in on one thing and how that fits into the health and wellness journey. How Joseph's return to mountaineering is going to flow over into other areas of his life, especially parenthood. Why curiosity and playfulness is the missing piece in wellness that RUNGA is able to provide participants. The gratitude that Joseph has for all of the lessons he has learned in life that have made him who he is today. What key piece of advice he would give to a 17-year-old who feels lost right now. Joseph's mission to help people transform and uncover their dharma in life. His own experience getting caught up in the whole "I have to go to college and figure out my life now" mindset and why he now wishes he knew at 17 about dharma and life that he does now. How Joseph came to name his event, RUNGA. Why attending these intense yoga classes were like a metaphor for Joseph's life at the time. Deepak Chopra What primordial sound meditation is and why the word, "runga," has an interesting vibration. Joseph's view on wellness and what being well means to him. What it means to him to step out with his new name, Joseph Anew, and how his DNA is literally changing with his new identity. Power Quotes From The Show Coming Back Home to Joy "When we are born, we are abundant. We are joyful, we are happy. The game, the lived experience is us going far from there and coming back. That's the duality, that's the journey." - Joseph Anew Law of Attraction vs Higher Frequency "Between the law of attraction and sending messages on a higher frequency, the approaches are different but it's the same concept. Different approaches cater to different audiences. When you read books like The Secret or Think and Grow Rich, you're very focused on what you want and it's not that you shouldn't get granular even if you're into Dispenza but to me with Dispenza, you're looking for a more broad version of this change. A lot of people are looking for healing for example; not a blue BMW by September 20th, 2025. In my opinion, you want to become the frequency of change to see what's there." - Joseph Anew How to Live Your Own Life "I would tell my 17-year-old self that everything is happening on purpose. Everything in your life is for a purpose. Remember that there is no time or space in dharma, really. Right now your focus is to follow your heart, find your true friends, take good care of your body, be as physically fit as you can be in a reasonable amount of investment, and await further instructions. When we go to college and everyone has to be a doctor or a lawyer or something that pays well, you lose the magic. Everyone has their unique genius, their special gifts. For example, you could be an astronaut if you want to be but you're not supposed to be; you have a different soul contract and purpose for this world." - Joseph Anew Links From Today's Show Spartan Race Intuitive Warrior Podcast Heartful: Practices to Awaken the Heart BREATHE. | Joe DiStefano | TEDxLugano 375 Bizzie Gold: Break Method | Why Instinct And Intuition Are Not The Same (Rewiring The Subconscious) Paul Chek Joe Dispenza Leonidas I 086 Creating The Unbeatable Mind With Mark Divine 410 Mark Divine | Positive Neurodiversity: Kokoro Spirit, The 5 Mountains For Inner Peace, & How To Fulfill Your Potential Paths to God: Living the Bhagavad Gita by Ram Dass Alan Watts Arnold Patent Eckhart Tolle Tony Robbins Britta Bushnell Transformational Birth Course Nathan Riley, MD, FACOG Esther Perel 463 JP Sears | This Is How Media HIJACKS Your Mind: Stop Censoring Yourself & Heal The Tyrant Within MitoZen 436 Dr. John Lieurance | Melatonin Miracle: Supra-Physiologic Dosing, Sinus Health & Ending Inflammation Paleo(Fx) Journey of Souls: Case Studies of Life Between Lives by Michael Newton Deepak Chopra Shop the Wellness Force Store breathwork.io Paleovalley – Save 15% on your ACV Complex with the code ‘JOSH' Seeking Health - Save 10% with the code 'JOSH' Organifi – Special 20% off to our listeners with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' Drink LMNT – Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, you only cover the cost of shipping Botanic Tonics – Save 40% when you use the code ‘WELLNESS40' Essential Oil Wizardry: Save 10% with the code 'WELLNESSFORCE' Cured Nutrition – Get 15% off of your order when you visit wellnessforce.com/cured + use the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community Leave Wellness Force a review on iTunes Joseph Anew Facebook Instagram LinkedIn RUNGA Facebook Instagram LinkedIn About Joseph Anew Joseph Anew is an international speaker, fitness expert, entrepreneur and lifestyle coach.

I really do believe that we do have all of the answers within us if we allow the space, more of the feminine energy to come in, and welcome more of the quietness. So, seeing the space in between is really beautiful. It's like where time collapses because time is this funny, human concept but everything just slows down and you can process everything that's within you in the moment. - Dr. Jin Ong Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Listen To Episode 465 As Dr. Jin Ong Uncovers: [1:30] The Art of Listening to Your Body Dr. Jin Ong The Art of Listening to Your Body Podcast What exactly a cathartic release practitioner does and her training as an osteopath, herbalist, and acupuncturist for New Zealand and Australian patients. Questions people have about catharsis and why some people feel uncomfortable about the release. Why she's moving away from the title of cathartic release practitioner and calling herself a psychosomatic therapist and emotional anatomy practitioner. The history interpretation process that she took Josh through in their 1-1 session and what came from it. Her knowledge of the doshas, chakra, and Ayurvedic healing modalities. How she helps clients find out which emotions have been stored in their bodies and how to release them. Explaining where exactly the voice of our body comes from within ourselves. How we can better tune inwards when we allow the feminine voice within to come forward by spending time alone in a quiet area. Why verbal dialect is so important for releasing trapped emotions because of the vibration and frequency it carries. [14:15] The Importance of Both Our Masculine + Feminine Energies How the masculine + hustle and bustle energy in this world is causing so many people to create sideways energy from within. We shouldn't label masculine or feminine energy as good or bad because we need both. The cause of why so many people end up focusing more on being in their masculine rather than feminine selves plus the imbalance that creates within. How the masculine energy helped lead Dr. Jin to where she is now with her career. Why the feminine energy allows us to become our fully embodied selves. Her struggle listening to her feminine energy, and intuition to embody her work. The health issues that came up for Dr. Jin when she wasn't expressing herself through her feminine energy. Explaining what ends up blocking our inner voice from being heard. [18:00] Healing Through Conversations with Our Younger Selves Why we find it so hard to trust even our heart and intuition. The fact that some of the most beautiful life experiences happen from challenges and growth. The younger selves conversations that she teaches people to have with their inner child and why they are so important. Dr. Jin's own turning point and healing journey when she was experiencing multiple skin issues. The thousands of dollars she was spending on to heal her skin and then came to realize her actions were a dysfunctional behavior pattern trying to control external issues to heal her inner pain. What she needed to unlearn from her medical education as an osteopath to know what she knows now. The fact that all of the hives on her body were all over her joint lines and why that was significant to help her heal. How she uses her skin as a barometer to know when she is out of alignment. [25:00] Developing the Courage to Say, 'No' Breaking down why we struggle as a society to have the courage to say, 'No,' and set up healthy boundaries for our time and energy. The work she does to constantly teach and remind her clients how to say, 'No,' and that it's a full sentence - they don't have to explain why they're denying a request.

Power Quotes From The Show Have You Forgotten to Trust Your Heart? "Upbringing, conditioning, belief systems, the business of the masculine world, and getting stuck in the logical mind rather than trusting your heart block the body's voice from being heard. That is why having conversations with our younger selves is so important to help you come back home to yourself. In our pain, we often don't believe that it can get any better but yes; when have those deep, darker times it can make the high stuff feel even higher." - Dr. Jin Ong The Many Layers of Our Soul "I want people to know that there are so many layers to who they are. You ask one question and there are so many different perspectives and layers. Be and stay curious on your wellness path. There will be people who want to shut you down and stop you from growing but someone out there is going to be your support and help answer your questions to open up this wellness pathway even wider for you. Come back to that deeper inner trust and your intuition but communicate; use your voice if you're able to do so." - Dr. Jin Ong Dr. Jin Ong: Our Darkest Corners Hold the Greatest Lessons "So many people are under this illusion that when you connect with your purpose that your life is just going to flow and be free of challenges but that's not true. Instead, you learn to embrace the challenges and know and trust that there is a lesson in each one that will help you grow. I believe that we have these recurring things that happen and they can play out in our intimate relationships, our family, and at the workplace in different shapes, ways, and forms because there is a lesson there that we are yet to recognize. So, if we're willing to go in deep and be aware and get curious about our triggers, there definitely are deeper lessons that are linked to the interaction and reaction." - Dr. Jin Ong Links From Today's Show The Art of Listening to Your Body Podcast with Dr. Jin Ong The Space Inbetween episode - The Art of Listening to Your Body Podcast Viktor Frankl 311 Mark Wolynn | It Didn't Start With You: Ending The Cycle of Inherited Trauma 366 Mark Wolynn | How To Heal Generational Trauma: The Thoughts, Feelings, Patterns & Behaviors Formed Before You Were Ever Born The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma by Peter Levine Indie Birth Hypnobirthing: A Natural Approach To A Safe, Easier, More Comfortable Birthing by Marie Mongan MEd MHy How Your Doshas Change Through Life And A Secret To Health Two Phases Of Discomfort Is Catharsis Fragmenting?

Jin Ong is a professionally trained as an osteopath, psychosomatic therapist, western medical acupuncturist and herbalist living in the beautiful lakeside town of Wanaka, New Zealand. Having treated thousands of clients in her clinics, she soon became fed-up treating with her clinical skills alone. She wasn't seeing the results she'd hoped for. Deep down, she knew her client's pain (not only physical) was a manifestation of their emotional state. They were dealing with hidden trauma and stress they'd never spoken about, which impacted the ability of their physical and emotional body to heal. Their body was speaking to them, but they weren't listening. They had an emotional disconnect. How Dr. Jin Ong Helps People Heal Based on a client's pain, injury, mental imbalance or behavioural dysfunction, Jin tapped into her intuition and started interpreting the deeper emotional issues at play. Not only could she bring awareness to the issues her clients were previously unaware of, she started facilitating her clients through a process to help them release these stored emotions to truly liberate them of their pain physically and mentally. After a pandemic hit and her clinics had to shut down, fear drove her to do what she was really passionate about. To train other therapists in her methods and processes as well as work with people all around the world at a deeper level to create profound shifts in their life and realign them with their soul purpose. She loves to dig deep, speak about the unspoken, and help people process unresolved emotions that hold them back from living the life they truly want.

This is Josh Trent. This is the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast. This is a very special solocast. It's something I've been ruminating on for a long time. I wanna know if you can relate. Do you ever feel like there's a tyrant inside of your mind, a tyrant who bullies you, talks down to you, and it makes you feel like shit? If so, let me know. In the comments, what is your biggest narrative? When it comes to the tyrant inside of you today, I'm gonna give you some big tools, some big rocks that I'll break down with mindfulness and with care. So that by the end of this podcast, you're gonna leave with less created self-stress. So you can show up for life, more powerful, less controllable, and somebody who embodies more courage and more peace. Let's start here. [1:00] Where is Your Tyrant Narrative Guiding You? We have narratives in our mind. We always have these narratives that either guide us toward love or guide us towards hate. Now, the reason is, that we're half beast, half spirit, we're a biological being, but we're also a spirit inside that being, having a spiritual experience. So inside of our brain, there is a default mode network. We're gonna go into this later on in the video, I'm gonna share with you how conscious breath awareness can actually turn down the volume of your default mode network. And I'm gonna tell you what the default is, and I'm gonna tell you what the default mode network actually is and why it's so important to your emotional intelligence and your piece. I'll give you another big tool. That's called Emotional Intelligence Squared. This is something that I've been working on for an upcoming book. We'll talk about CCI, which is Curious Compassionate Inquiry, and why these are the ways that all of us can get down to what I call the lens of the kaleidoscope, the kaleidoscope that's connected to our head, our heart and our soul. [1:56] Learning To Love The Tyrant Inside - Let's Get Started So we can make great decisions and not just be in our head all the time. Let me know if you can relate to this, you ever find yourself in your head and it's been days or weeks or maybe a month or more where you've actually felt your stomach felt your breath? I'll talk about how to get out of the mind and into the body. So you can make decisions from this alignment of the kaleidoscope. And lastly, we'll talk about the five sides of the Wellness Pentagon, something we've been going into depth on for Wellness + Wisdom, but it's the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial ways that we all nourish ourselves. So we can show up in life with more peace and with more courage and be less controllable, especially what's going on in the war, for our minds and our souls on social media. So let's dig in. If you're the kind of person who has the narrative in your mind, that sometimes makes you feel like garbage, take a deep breath to your nose, fill your belly, and let it go through your mouth. [2:52] Understanding the Default Mode Network Let's begin. The default mode network is a structure in the brain that is the prefrontal cortex, the posterior singulate and the amygdala. Now, these are three big ancient structures. There are many more inside of the default mode network. But the key that we have to understand about the default mode network is it's most active when we're at rest. Now, why is that? If the default mode network, which is essentially the thing that's scanning for danger, the thing that remembers when you've been through pain, when you've been hurt or back in the day, if you're a cave person being chased by a tiger, it's probably a good thing to know. So I'm not here to demonize any structure of the brain or any structure of biology. What I'm saying is we have to be aware that these ancient structures don't necessarily apply anymore. Like they used to. So when we get this activation of the default mode network, it puts us in what's called a fight or flight state. It pulls us out of the present moment. It makes our respiration decrease. It makes our heart rate increase and it makes our stress hormones increase. [4:03] Understanding Our Fear Response We have structures near our kidneys called cortisol. We have structures near our kidneys called adrenal glands, which release cortisol. This is exactly what happens when we are in two places. One is anxiety, which is fear of the future fear of not being able to handle it, not being enough or one is depression rumination of the past, beating yourself up for what didn't happen, depending on your level of integration of trauma or stress, or just things that have occurred for you in life. You are going to have either a high volume or a low volume of the default mode network. Now here's where it gets awesome. One of the reasons that I use breathwork in my own life and for the thousand plus students that are in our BREATHE: Breath and Wellness program at breathwork.io is because when you use conscious respiration when you are actually having conscious breath awareness, you can scientifically and somatically turn down the volume radically of that default mode network. [4:30] Active vs Resting Brain Here's why it's active when our brain is at rest. When our brain is at rest, we also want to be engaged in loving activities or a flow state, but we get pulled out of it because of this rumination or this anxiety. So when we start doing circular breathing, and I'm gonna talk about some more of these tools, when we get to the Wellness Pentagon section in this solocast, when we're experiencing anxiety, we have a shortness of breath. When we're experiencing depression, we have a compression of breath. We don't have as much volume in our breath. So the best way to do this, which I talk about in our program and that you and I are gonna do right now to turn down the volume of this tyrant, which is really attached to the default mode network. We do it like this. We breathe in through our nose. We breathe out through our mouth three times without any pauses. So it looks and feels just like this. [5:00] If I Can Breathe, I Can Choose I like to continue to do that up until about 21-30 times, somewhere in between. You'll notice that when you're breathing like a circle, and also when you breathe like a box, we'll talk about this later, your mind is at rest over the course of time. The more that you do this practice, this circular practice with no pausing at the top or the bottom, you will scientifically and somatically turn down the volume of your default mode network. And when the volume is turned down, this is the most amazing thing. When the volume of your default mode network is turned down, you can show up more, present, and more loving. It's on my arm in Italian. I've talked about this many times, "se posso respirare posso scegliere," which means, "If I can breathe, I can choose." I myself fought depression, anxiety for a long time coming from my own familial situation, my own trauma. [5:49] The Anchor of Your Breath And I found that, you know, I did plant medicines and I did lots of other things and conferences. And you fell on the gamut. I mean, I did lots of things, but it was my breath. It was the anchor of my breath. It was seeking me out the entire time. And that is why I believe that conscious breath awareness is what we all need to learn right now. And that is what is going to turn down. All those structures, turn down the volume of the default mode network and allow you to unlock some peace. When you have peace, you're able to build more courage. This is the key. When you're peaceful, you're more courageous or when you're more courageous, you're more peaceful. It's the chicken or the egg. That's a big concept. I'm gonna link a resource right here to three different podcasts that I've done about the default mode network, about how our breath works. So you can dig in more. Let's move on. We're gonna talk about emotional intelligence squared or my EI2 process. [6:46] Josh's Vision Quest Experience So this came to me earlier this year after I did a vision quest. If you haven't done a vision quest, it can be incredibly transformational. Once you have a foundation of conscious breath, awareness and self-inquiry, and the Wellness Pentagon, the three things that I'm gonna give you in this solocast, but beyond just a deep dive into my soul, what I really felt from God's wisdom, nature's wisdom in nature. When I was fasting for four days with just water is I felt this compassionate inquiry. I really knew that everything I've ever wanted was inside of myself. And it's inside of you too. We're all just trained by society and the media. And unfortunately, our parents, who were trained by our grandparents, that we don't have the answers, but we actually do. The EI2 process is where we align the thoughts that we're thinking in our head, the feelings that we're feeling in our heart, which direct us to the energy in motion, the emotions that we're experiencing, and our intuitive faculty to connect with soul, to connect with God. [7:47] Your Guiding Kaleidoscope: Better Understand the Tyrant Within So head, heart, and soul make up what I believe is the kaleidoscope, the lens of awareness that we all have, but we have to, to cultivate the vision, to see through it. Here's how we do it. You take a piece of scratch paper or a journal. And on the left side of the page, you're gonna write down 10 things that you truly know are causing you pain. So go ahead and do that right now. Pause this podcast, pause this video, grab a journal, grab a piece of paper, grab a pen. Or if you want to, you can do it on an Evernote or a digital journal. So do this right now. This is truly going to be a starting place for you to relieve the narrative of the dogma and the torture of this tyrant that lives inside of all of us. And really we're gonna learn today how we can love it. [8:33] What Are You Grateful For? So write down those 10 things. Now that you've done that draw a line down the center and on the right side of the page, write down 10 things that you really, really love. And on the right side of the page, write down 10 things that you truly love. Things that fill your body with gratitude, things that you actually experience on a very deep level. Don't just be like, oh, I like food, I'm grateful for my food. Like things that you are, unless you really are, things that you are really, really, really grateful for things that you feel. Maybe it's holding your son, your daughter, your partner...your friends, something exciting. Maybe you love to paint. Write that down, take a big breath, let it go. Make sure your phone is off. Make sure you have no distractions. And I want you to circle the one on the left.. [9:21] Paralysis by Analysis ...that's causing you the most pain and you know what it is. Sometimes we get in this paralysis by analysis and it actually is a figment of the ego that keeps us stuck by being so overwhelmed or confused that we can't move forward on the one thing that we know is causing us the most pain. Now, here's why we did the 10 on the other side. So from that list of 10, that you're most grateful for, circle the one that you know is the most energetically aligned with your heart. The one that feels the best when you tune into it, you love it the most, maybe it's like your wife or your son or your daughter. I'm not here. Or your husband. I'm not here to tell you what that is, only you know what that is. So you've done the exercise. You've begun this emotional inventory in the emotional intelligence squared process. [10:15] Sharing Your Journey with Someone You Trust The EI2 you've began by doing the emotional inventory. So, you have your paper. You've circled the two, be honest with yourself because the next step is actually the most challenging. And the most liberating. You reach out to someone, maybe it's a coach, maybe it's somebody in the Wellness + Wisdom community. Maybe it's somebody in your community and you call a friend, someone that you trust and you tell them, "Hey, I've done a process and I'm changing my life. And I wanna share something with you. Can I share?" Now to the degree they give you back a response that's trustable, share with them, but do not share - This is a big key. Do not share your inventory process with somebody that, you know, secretly may not support your highest dreams, may not support your highest goals. So, be careful who you share this with, and then you share with them, "Hey, what's causing me... [10:55] What Are You Committed to Changing? ...the most stress is my current work what's causing me. The most pain is at my current work. I know that I'm destined for more. I know that I can make more money, whatever it is, or maybe it's a relationship you're in or health or finances, one of those big ones. And then you actually share to that person, this is what I'm committed to changing." And you put a date on it by when I'm gonna change it. By this point on this day, it's so empowering. And here's the key. You tell that person, "And I'm doing this because I may not have the biggest, I may not have the biggest amount of love for myself right now, or I love myself enough right now to change this..." Whatever your degree of self-love is, you talk to the person who you're sharing with about the thing that you love, the most, the thing that's gonna be worth it for you when times get hard. [11:37] Curious Compassionate Inquiry And when you're confronted with your ego and when you're confronted with the things that are not making you change, I know you can feel this. It's like palpable - in order to change and let go of something that's hurting you. That scares you. You have to have the fuel from something that you love. Otherwise, what's the point.? What's the point of changing? What's the point of evolving if you're not connected to someone or something that you truly love? And then from that place, you have taken away the first part, the most important part of this EI2 process. The next part of the EI2 process is where you look at the people in your life that are triggering you the most, the experiences of your life that are triggering you the most and just your general way of being. So the way that this works is now that you've done the first part, you can move on to stage two. And in stage two, you're gonna ask yourself five big questions. In other words, five wise deep, and you do this through the CCI process. The CCI is Curious Compassionate Inquiry. Now, if I'm having an experience, like let's say for an example, that my partner is triggering me... [12:37] Healing Our Triggers & Calming the Tyrant Within For an example, a traditional one is where somebody leaves their clothes all over the floor, right? And so just in this example, we'll say, "God, my wife left her clothes all the floor. Again! What in the hell is wrong with her?" You notice that response that you and I get, or that any of us get when we're triggered by a partner, when we're triggered by life, when we're triggered by an event. Obviously that is something that comes from the mind. The mind is making up a story. And so here's how we go five wise, deep. And by the way, you can apply this to anything, right? It could be capital "T" trauma. It could be lowercase "t" trauma, or it could just be an event that's occurring for you in life. The first thing that you do, and you do the same thing where you grab a piece of paper and you actually script this out. [13:22] Really Get Curious About Your Inner Tyrant! So you've already done the first part with the EI2 process where you did the 10 and 10 circled each one and told a friend, and that was putting you in the momentum of this next stage. And this is a thing you can do at any time. You can do this 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 times a day in the beginning, and you might have to, and that's okay. But the first thing that you write down on your page is what am I thinking? What am I thinking? And remember, you're gonna be compassionate to yourself. This is the CCI. So it's curious, compassionate inquiry. Be curious right now - don't run right to the answer. Just write it down. What am I thinking? I'm thinking that I hate it when my partner leaves the socks on the floor. I hate it.when my partner does this. What are the thoughts that are running through my mind about this person's circumstance or experience or situation? [14:12] Are Your Tyrant Thoughts True? Write it down, "What is the story that my mind is telling me?" Um, my mind is telling me a story of (I'm writing it down with you right now.): My partner doesn't actually care about me and they're lazy and they don't care about my feelings and they know it pisses me off. And this totally sucks. And you know what? This is a deal breaker. I hate this. That's really good to get out. Then the next question you ask is, "Am I reliving the past?" So maybe in another relationship, you had somebody that left socks or clothes on the floor and that was one of the reasons why the relationship didn't work out. Keep being curious here, keep being compassionate in your inquiry. And then the last one is, "Am I projecting into the future?" Maybe when I write that down, I'm feeling like they're never gonna change. Next week... [14:59] Unpacking All of Your Tyrant Stories ...it's gonna be the same thing and keep going until it doesn't hurt anymore. Keep going. You can go five. You can go 10, but make sure you ask those exact questions in that order so that you get to the bottom of it all, where you just realize this has nothing to do with my partner. This has everything to do with the experience inside of me. And when I really tune in to this kaleidoscope lens, through this compassionate inquiry, through this CCI, I can start to make decisions from a solid beam, a solid column inside of me. And that is the emotional intelligence squared. Now that you've done the CCI, you know what your mind is thinking, you know, all the stories, you know, all the fabrications, you know all the bullshit. Now go to your heart. What is your heart feeling? [15:51] What Is Your Heart Feeling? Your heart is feeling sad. Your heart is feeling sad. It's directing you to grief, the emotion of grief. Maybe it's directing you to the emotion of despair, whatever it is, write that down. You know what your thoughts are thinking, cause you just did that. And now go to your soul, close your eyes, take a deep breath. And I want you to visualize all those thoughts that are running in your head. All the feelings, all the emotion that your heart is truly feeling. The thing that maybe you don't wanna share, cause it's really vulnerable. And then I want you to connect with God. I want you to connect with your soul and feel your soul, giving you a lesson, giving you something that you know is for your greatest good. So, let's do this process. In my mind I just did the CCI, the inquiry. "I know my partner loves me, but God, it pisses me off. It reminds me of my last relationship and it makes me feel like they don't love me." [16:49] Listening to Your Heart's Wisdom Now, go to the heart. When I don't feel loved, I feel alone. When I feel alone, I feel like someone might abandon me. Huh? There's wisdom. There. There's a deeper emotion there. Keep going. It's not about just the socks on the floor. Just the laundry on the floor. It's about the emotion, the subconscious emotion that is being experienced from the thoughts that are narrating by the tyrant. And then go a little bit deeper. Now go to this experience with God, with soul and tune in and understand that this event is neutral. Your partner is not on purpose, trying to be mean to you or trying to hurt you. Even if they are - now, this is your experience to go to them with the head, the heart and the soul and give them a realistic understanding of what's happening inside of you. [17:43] How to Share with Your Partner And you do it by non-violent communication. Here's how, "Hey babe, I just did my inquiry. And I noticed earlier this morning, the socks were on the floor again. And my mind was telling me all these stories like you don't care about me. You don't love me or you're lazy. And it was really intense. I mean, the thoughts I were having were projecting me into the future and making me ruminate about the past. But really what I wanna share with you is that when I see the laundry on the floor, it makes me feel sad. It makes me have an experience that I'm not loved. And when I'm not loved, I might be abandoned. And it's super vulnerable for me to share with this. And it's super vulnerable for me to share this with you right now, but that's the truth. I know that this is happening because my soul is telling me that this is a way that you and I can get deeper..." [18:29] Emotional Intelligence Squared "...and this is a way that you and I can be closer together. So can you do me a favor please from now on just pick up your laundry on the floor." Now, can you imagine if you gave your partner that type of inquiry? Oh my gosh. Way different than, "Pick up your fucking socks!" Right? The way that we experience ourselves and the way that we articulate our experience is everything. It is truly everything. Try this on for size today, tomorrow, this week. I hope you've enjoyed this section two and really gotten something from this EI2 process, emotional intelligence squared, where you did the first part, where you wrote down the 10 and 10, you circled them. You shared, and you took action on a specific date. Then you went through a process of CCI, curious, compassionate inquiry, where you went at least five wise deep, and you recorded everything. [18:55] Power from Peace and Courage And then you actually shared, you took it upon yourself to align in this third portion of the EI2 process. You aligned your thoughts, your head, your heart, and your soul. And then you shared, then you came with the wisdom. Then you came with the courage. Then you came with the peace. And that is powerful. When you have power from peace and courage, that can be trusted, but brute force power. When you're just yelling at your partner, it's just not integration. It's just not emotional integration. And there's no shame to this because the tyrant is very loud. Let's go to the third part of our video today of this solocast. [19:29] The Wellness Pentagon And this is the five sides of the Wellness Pentagon. So in this last portion of the cast, we're gonna talk about the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial ways that we nourish ourself so that our nervous system, our biology can actually hold the load of doing the EI2 process and of understanding what this tyrant is actually telling us. In other words, if our conduit is dirty, if our physicality is loaded, if we're stressed out, if we're underslept, if we ourselves are over-stressed, it's going to be really challenging. Let alone, I think even impossible to love the tyrant inside of yourself, by doing this compassionate inquiry, by having curiosity. So let's begin. [20:02] The Power of Box Breathing The first aspect is the mind. The mind obviously feeds itself on thoughts. So if we want to calm down the mind, if we want to let the mind lose some weight, maybe the mind is obese. We have to give it a stimuli to do so. And so what we do is we do a conscious connected. And so we employ box breathing. Box breathing is powerful. It is what I learned from Mark Divine. It is what I've also seen Navy special warfare do before they go out into battle. It feels the same for you and I, whether we're with our spouse or in life or in battle, it's all the same. Box breathing is known to not just pull us over to the parasympathetic side of the nervous system, but also it's known to decrease cortisol, decrease stress hormones. And this is really key. When you're doing box breathing, I'm gonna show you how to do it. You're focused on your breath. That's all you're focused on. How to do Box Breathing When you're focused on your breath, you can start to bring in a calming mantra. My mantra is "I am loved. I am supported. I am on the right path." So let's do two rounds of the five-count box breathing to satisfy this mental construct that is wanting more, wanting more, but really it just wants a deep breath. Inhale for five through your nose. Fill your belly. Hold for five Exhale for five Hold for five Inhale nose for five Hold for five Exhale for five Hold for five [21:53] Grounding Ourselves Through the Breath Now imagine if you did that 10 times, 10 times, if you did a five count box breath, you are going to bring yourself to a place that is totally at peace and totally calm. And you can do this for free anywhere, anytime. We also go into depth. So you can use not just the box breath, but also the circular breath and many different things for your nervous system, to clear your stress with your breath. That's at breathwork.io. And by the way, if you're here on this video, you can just use this discount code. I give it to my friends, my family, or people like us who are interested in calming down our nervous system and that's PODCAST25. So you can get that at breathwork.io, just enter the code PODCAST25. So with this mental construct, calm down, we can bring in that mantra. [22:40] The Physical | Wellness Pentagon I've done my box breathing. I bring in the mantra that says, "I am loved. I am supported. I am on the right path." Now you can bring yourself to the physical. This is the next part of the Wellness Pentagon. The physical is so important because obviously, you know that it's important for you to move. So choose whatever you'd like. I'm not here to tell you how to work out or train. Get sweaty first. You can also do the sauna. In the sauna, there's very special heat shock proteins that are released by your body. These build emotional resilience, they're called hormetic stress or hormesis. Very fascinating. I'll leave a link right here in the show notes below this video. So you can learn more about hormesis, but we also get something from cold as well. And so as we're nourishing this physical lens, this physical part of our Pentagon, it's important to know that after your movement or your sauna, if you go right to the cold plunge, not only are you getting the heat shock proteins from the heats, which give you more immune response and give you better health... [23:38] Cold Plunge Benefits to Keep the Tyrant at Bay But now you're gonna get the cold shock proteins from the cold. I like the brand, Plunge. You can go to joshtrent.com/plunge. With the code, "WELLNESSFORCE" you get 150 bucks off a Plunge unit, which is amazing. Then when you're doing this and when you do the cold and the hot and you cycle that one, maybe even two times, I promise you, now that you've done the mental calming, you've done the physical calming. Now you're ready for the emotional. See people jump right to the emotional. They try to get their charge outta their body without getting their body to let go of the charge. You see the difference. It's like one of 'em is push. One of 'em is pull. So now that you've pulled the things out, that no longer serve you by doing your box breathing, your physicality. Now you can go to the emotional process. We can do a two part breath. We can also just go into another CCI. The curious, compassionate inquiry. [24:32] Two Part Breath & Strike Pose The two part breath looks and feels just like this. You can do it nasally. Or if you want to have the two part breath looks just like this. Notice. I have my hand on my heart. I have my hand on my stomach. That's allowing you to get that cry response. A lot of times, remember when you're a little kid or just people that cry, cause crying's normal. When you cry, you go like this, right? The two part breath is so powerful for letting go of emotions. And also you can do what's called a strike pose. So you get on the ground with, with your knee about shoulder width apart and you take your hands, just like this so that your fingers are together and the palms of your hands are down and you strike, you, put your hands over your head and you strike the pillow with a full body motion up and down. So that you're actually getting rid of the energy, getting rid of the anger that you may have in your system. [25:12] Getting Rid of Energy in Motion One of the best ways that you can nourish your emotional self is yes, doing the EI2 process going deep into what's happening for you, the head, the heart, the soul, but also sometimes we can be so overwhelmed by what's happening for us emotionally that we have to get the energy in motion out. We have to just get the energy out of our body. So yes, you can do the two part breath. You can do that. Just like I showed you for three minutes or five minutes and just allow what comes out to come out. Or if you're feeling really intense, you can go into that strike post. That is a big one. We talk about many of these things in the BREATHE program. Again, I've already given you the discount it's at breathwork.io (PODCAST25). [26:01] Centering After an Emotional Release with MitoZen I like to stack my breathwork with the tool from Mito Zen. This is Dr. John Lieurance's company and this has oxytocin and hoppe in it. So a lot of times after I do a big purge or release, I'll relax with this nasal spray. It is so powerful. I actually use it for breathwork practices as well, but you can get this joshtrent.com/mitozen. There's a code "WELLNESSFORCE." You get 10% off. The reason I like it the most is because after I've had the release, it helps me to reset. It helps me to actually be more in my center so I can calm down. And it actually gives me a little bit of a high. Now it's not the kind of high like psychedelics, but it is absolutely powerful. I totally recommend it. It is my go-to for emotional intelligence and for emotional release. [27:00] Cleaning Our Spiritual Lens +Understanding the Tyrant Within The next is our spiritual lens. So now that we've gone through the physical, the mental, the emotional, the spiritual is where we actually connect with that part of our soul. That part that connects to God. And we do that through either reading some type of scripture, doesn't have to be the Bible - I'm not a religious man - or some type of intelligence that you know is godlike or angelic. Maybe you could just do a dedicated prayer or a loving kindness meditation. This is a big one because when you sit still and want to put your hand on your heart and your stomach, maybe you just sit and do a loving kindness meditation. You just allow thoughts to come up that aren't loving and you let them go. When you do this, you actually start getting information from the collective, from the ether, whether you're scientific or spiritual, you know that there's lots of things out there that you don't understand and whatever created us all, whatever's gonna give you that spiritual connection because without spirit, you can't do anything. [28:00] Tools for Greater Spiritual Connection Whatever's gonna give you that spiritual connection. You can find that by being still. One of the ways I love to be still is this Feel Free product (40% off with code "WELLNESS40"). It's a plant tonic. It's got really beautiful adaptogens in it. One of them is kava so it relaxes you. It also gives you a focused euphoria and I've found that after I've cleared my physicality after I've done my breathwork after I've purged emotionally when I really want to connect to my myself, the God in me and the God outside of me, I love, love, love to use this Feel Free. It's one of my most favorite tools, actually the Mito Zen spray and the Feel Free are like every single day. Actually, that's not true. The spray is more like three times a week. I don't do the spray every day, but the feel free is my go-to for connecting with the deeper parts of myself. So I can have that focused euphoria. And also you don't need this. You don't need the Feel Free to connect with God. I'm not sitting here saying you must have any of these tools. They just have helped me a lot more so I thought I'd share. [29:07] Build Greater Financial Health And the last one is financial. Many of us experience this anxiety about finances or depression from our epigenetics about finances. We can shift the story. And I know this. I came from welfare, I've been $75,000 in debt myself. I've had quite the money story. And here's what you do to fill your financial self. You ask yourself who do I know that I feel is wealthy and that has a life that I love? Who do I know that's wealthy and has a life that I love? Add your time for them. Add your time as value for them. So you might take an inventory of your phone or all the people in your community. And you might go to someone who's a mentor or somebody that you really think is doing both. Has a great life, has a life that you would love and has has wealth. And you ask them, "Hey, would you mind? I'm actually like in a process right now where I'm growing my own intelligence. I'm moving forward in my life. And I'm honestly sick of being poor. I'm done with the anxiety and depression that comes with being poor. And with being financially strapped, would you be able to allow me to volunteer for you?" And don't be surprised if they say, "No," it's okay. You can have maybe 10. I guarantee you. If you ask 10 people, one of them is gonna say, "Yes," and you can just share with them. Your goal is to share with them, your dreams and let them know you'd love to volunteer. [29:32] The Beauty of Volunteering Your Heart Energy This is key. There's something so reciprocal about volunteering your heart energy, which is the most incredible thing connected to your time, which is a gift that time can never be replaced. So when you offer your time and you offer your heart to someone that is wealthy and also has a life that you feel like you would love, you can tell that they are embodying love in their life. That is gonna bring you closer to you saving money, you becoming more wealthy and get excited. Get excited about growing your own wealth regardless of your external circumstances. Now we just filled all the five sides of your Wellness Pentagon. You should feel incredibly nourished. Watch this entire video again, write down all of your notes. [31:18] Getting Closer to Your Wellness Goals You can also go to joshtrent.com/464. That's where everything here is laid out for you. All the discounts, all the resources, the BREATHE program, and everything we've talked about today. From my heart to yours, if anything, you moved 1% closer to being more emotionally intelligent by turning down the volume of this default mode network and giving this tyrant an outlet that lives inside of you. It's not about beating up the tyrant. It's not about being a tyrant. It's about recognizing that inside of me, inside of you, inside of us, there is always a tyrant cause to be human is to be a tyrant, to be on the path of emotional integration is to sometimes find that you need to love the tyrant inside of yourself. I know for me, this came on full strength recently in the vision quest. [31:55] How Do You Live Your Life Well? And if you're like me, you're on this path of constantly learning about yourself and constantly reflecting about, "How do I live my life well?" How do I be the person I know that I'm capable of? How do I step into my potential? And these are not terms that Tony Robbins speaks on a stage. These are feelings and experiences that you and I are feeling probably right now. Otherwise, you wouldn't be watching this video or listening to this podcast. So again, joshtrent.com/464. It is my wish. It is my desire that from this solocast, you have been able to get rid of the self-created stress so you can live better. You can have more courage. You can have more peace or vice versa.

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.
Turn off the news, really minimize social media, and don't look at your phone for the first hour of the day. Removing these kinds of things are absolutely vital before we have any hope in hell of understanding what we actually think. Whatever I'm getting emotionally charged at; that's a mirror for me in my self-growth and spiritual realization. I ask myself, 'How am I being a tyrant towards myself? Have I already enslaved myself? How am I censoring myself?' to find out what I can learn from my triggers and then the tyrants become our teachers. - JP Sears Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Josh and JP's shock at other wellness influencers and podcasters not speaking out about the mandates and control during CV 19.

Healthy boundaries JP sets up for himself to not be brought down by other people and their negative energy. Why JP feels more like a whole man now that he is a father and has the mission of creating a better future for Wilder. Why living for someone else besides yourself is the greatest fuel source according to JP. How JP is embracing his emotions of anger now (compared to ignoring them before) as a fuel source that pushes him in the direction of what he loves like a Father Gorilla or Mama Bear. The fear JP used to have around anger that he wasn't willing to try and connect with it at all. How JP has faced the backlash of cancel culture and why he uses humor to get his message across to people. Why he believes we're pre-destined to express ourselves through different archetypes like the Joker or the Jester (in his example) for our personal expression. How JP balances the two worlds of humor and being serious in his teachings by being resourceful. [33:00] Vital Lessons the Light & the Dark Teach Us Unpacking the #MeToo movement, COVID-19, and how the pendulum has swung that it is greatly impacting ourselves and society. Exploring the importance of the light and dark, pain and pleasure - why experiencing these opposites are vital for us to uncover who we are at our core. Why it's so important for us to remember who we are again and not betray ourselves by swinging too far to one extreme. You are the Universe - Alan Watts How we can let ourselves be free through humor and why insecurity stops it in its tracks. Why humor helps us be present in the moment and is a powerful expression of connection between two people. Important lessons that many people have forgotten: we're loved no matter what and we matter as individuals Why we substitute that knowledge with the amnesia that we need other people's approval. The fight, flight, faun, or freeze modes we automatically go to when we're afraid, insecure, or nervous.

JP's favorite methods to tune in and stop outsourcing his thinking. Why it is vital to get comfortable with the discomfort and open ourselves up to explore and experience the negative emotions, not just the positive ones. How to find the courage to let our critical thinking and heart flow out to the rest of the world through our words and actions. Why doing things that are uncomfortable like ice baths, hard workouts, and more are actually good for us and what is comfortable like eating a bunch of sugar or sitting on the couch all day are bad.

[1:26:30] The Metaverse: What Does it Mean for Humanity? How life shifts when you are in a committed relationship; especially when there is a child too.

Power Quotes From The Show Gender Dysphoria + The Current War of the Psyche "We can do incredible harm while we're trying to do good. It can be so uncomfortable to see someone else uncomfortable that we want to help them. The method that we're doing to help people with gender dysphoria can be incredibly hurtful on them and that is very selfish of us to inflict hurt with our helping hand because we don't have the courage to experience our own discomfort." - JP Sears How Human Connection Keeps Us in Alignment "Human connection - we've been told it's the deadliest thing for us but I think it's the most enlivening thing for us. It reminds us who we really are and we need it. Part of that human connection is understanding, 'What do I actually think?' - Not just what your brain is thinking and the thoughts that are in there but what you actually think and what your hear wants. The more we can let our words and actions be congruent with what our thoughts are and what our heart's guidance is, the more peace and purpose we will feel. When that is out of alignment, we start to suffer." - JP Sears Letting Go of Constrictive Energy "To me, feeling nervous and constrictive energy is fear and a common denominator of maybe a lot of those fears is the fear of being who and how I really am in this moment. Will that be accepted by others; by myself? Will I get approval from my peers? I don't know how I will show up in the upcoming given moment so there can be fear of the unknown. The more we get accustomed to being curious of how we're going to show up rather than trying to align with a fictitious expectation, the more those constrictions go away." - JP Sears Links From Today's Show Awaken with JP on YouTube JP Reacts on YouTube 451 Laura Coe | Understanding Akashic Records: How To Live Your Dharma, Spiritual Bypassing, Twin Flames & Soul Mates Paul Chek | All is God Living 4D with Paul Chek: Episode 5 – JP Sears: Friendships, Relationships and Personal Growth You are the Universe - Alan Watts PaleoF(x) 167 Michelle Norris: From Healing & Growth To Paleo f(x) 354 Keith Norris: Bread, Circuses, & Mind Control JP Sears: BOMBSHELL Safety Data Released on “Life Jackets” Why Life Jackets Should Be Mandatory!

His videos have been viewed more than 500 million times. In addition to inspiring laughter in a weird world, JP's work takes an unapologetic stand for freedom, free speech, and encouraging people to free themselves from fear. JP lives in Texas because of FREEDOM! There he's set a world record for how much he loves his family. When he's not making videos or performing on stage, JP spends his time passionately playing all out, scaring himself daily, and choosing to live guided by his own free will. JP uses comedy to share "sincere life advice" and balances "the sincere and the satirical" while avoiding the idea that "you're either serious, like Deepak Chopra, or you're only joking around like a comedian”. Sears has rejected being categorized as either "sincere" or "humorous", explaining that he is both, and the premise of the question is like asking "do you have a right hand or do you have a left hand?"
God doesn't want you to use drugs to interact with the spiritual world. The reason for that is it's very easy to put your faith in being able to have God or the gods at your beck and call, being able to divine, being able to experience God but not ever truly know God, being able to experience a deep spiritual awakening but never actually go through the blood, sweat, tears, and the hard work that develops true spiritual enlightenment. - Ben Greenfield Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

[1:13:30] How Prayers Can be Answered + Sometimes Are Not Why your heart first has to be in the right place and with pure intention when you commune with God about your wishes and desires. Ben's prayers for years to God to help heal his gut issues and how that health experience led him to actually helping so many people with their own healing process. How his health issues keep him humble knowing that his body is not perfect.

To be able to be on my knees each morning and say to God, 'I give everyone and everything to you. I can't do this on my own. I can't be good on my own nor be the father and husband I want to be on my own. Although this might sound like the total polar opposite of a positive affirmation, I'm a fallen creature and I would commit great evil if I were left all alone to myself; I know it...' ...However, there is this great confidence that despite all of that, I am loved unconditionally and have been offered a rescue line that is free so that all I have to do is rely upon the grace of God and his love to be able to help me be as good as I can be. I think knowing that gives great hope because then you know that you don't have to do it all on your own. You can rely upon a higher power to be the person that you want to be in this life." - Ben Greenfield Loving the World Through Your Purpose "You were made for a reason and you just have to unlock it. You have a planned divine purpose and it's so easy to experience the "grass is always greener" syndrome especially in a world with social media. It's so simple to look at other people living their purpose; they're a doctor or an architect or a gardener and then you find yourself comparing your life to theirs but never underestimate your unique skill set and the things that come easy to you because that's how you can love the world the most. You just have to intimately become familiar with what it is that you're good at and then unashamedly run with it in the spirit of not monetizing it but loving with it. Find your purpose and know that you never have to be ashamed of that purpose." - Ben Greenfield The Appropriate Path to God "In my own plant medicine experiences, they have only ever been about light, love, and spiritual enlightenment. Many former atheists that I have spoken to that have participated in plant medicine have been able to come and know God through ceremony. Plant medicines can be a path to God but it is not THE path; it is not the appropriate path to God. The reason for that is you can go in protected with positive energy plus the right environment and know that you can trust the shaman but it's really just playing with fire... ...That's why God has warned us about pharmakeia in the bible because he knew how attractive it was and how much of a train wreck it would cause in the end or how much of a displaced trust it would cause for people to put their faith and reliance upon how they could become spiritually enlightened in anything other than the free act of just leaving their burden at the foot of the cross, thanking Jesus, and living in grace." - Ben Greenfield Links From Today's Show Listen to: Ben Greenfield Life Podcasts Why I Am No Longer Going to Be Using Plant Medicines: Part 1 - The Big Problem With “Plant Medicines” Part 2 - Why I Am No Longer Going to Be Using Plant Medicines: The Big Problem With “Plant Medicines” CHEK Institute How To Eat, Move, & Be Healthy by Paul Chek Paul Chek on Wellness + Wisdom Podcast RUNGA Cover Story | Power Trip by New York Magazine Onnit 123 Aubrey Marcus – Own The Day 196.

For many people, perfectionism is a response to trauma. It's not that you just want to do everything perfectly. So, when you are a perfectionist, you have this constant inner voice telling you, 'That's not good enough. You need to do it again.' It's a defense mechanism that we create which can lead to a negative mindset and inner voice that's a constant critic. That can then override these beautiful emotions like joy and love. Your heart resonates so many positive emotions but trauma can really override that in the inner critic. - Dr. Wendy Myers Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Power Quotes From The Show Over 65% of Health Issues Caused by Emotional Trauma "In my research, I found that emotional trauma causes over 65% of physical health issues. It's really a bigger issue than I expected for both little 't' and big 'T' trauma. There will be people with extreme cases such as PTSD but what's more common is childhood attachment trauma or developmental trauma because of an abusive or neglecting parent. This creates a cycle of stress in the body and a person can then develop a high-stress set point where they can be more sensitive to a stressor than the next person and it causes this cascade of stress hormones that can lead to this whole biological domino effect in the gut and brain." - Dr. Wendy Myers The Genesis of Self-Hatred "The genesis of self-hatred comes from how you were treated as a child by your primary caregivers. The reason why you can't talk or intellectualize away these negative feelings about yourself or your parents as an adult is because many of these abusive or neglectful situations happened before you were even able to intellectualize or verbalize them. As a child, you were not even consciously aware of what was happening and that is why talking about them doesn't really work. A lot of people aren't even aware that they still have these issues and you don't have to know what happened to you or what your negative emotions are to tune them out of your energy field." - Dr. Wendy Myers How Different Enneagram Personality Types Respond to Trauma "So many of us have this negative inner voice that can creep in and in the Emotional Detox program, we explore the different enneagram personality types that people have and how this changes their response to trauma. Based on the trauma that you have, your different personality trait(s) might be expressed. Some such as Type 1 or Type 3 might become perfectionists in response to trauma." - Dr. Wendy Myers Links From Today's Show The Emotional Detox Masterclass Myers Detox Protocol Course 205 How To Live To 110: Wendy Myers 304 Dr. Ann Shippy HeartMath Institute The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk 311 Mark Wolynn | It Didn't Start With You: Ending The Cycle of Inherited Trauma 366 Mark Wolynn | How To Heal Generational Trauma: The Thoughts, Feelings, Patterns & Behaviors Formed Before You Were Ever Born Richard Schwartz, IFS Institute Eileen Day McKusick - Biofield Tuning NES Health Harry Massey, Founder, NES Health 423 Ryan Duey | Ice Baths: Cold Therapy For Weight Loss, Immunity, Metabolism & Mental/Emotional Health Peter A.

She is passionate about educating the public on the importance of long term detoxing considering our toxic world. She healed her own health issues through hair mineral analysis and developed a unique detox and supplement program. Wendy wants to help others do the same. Wendy's interest in nutrition began with the death of her father from esophageal cancer. Intuitively, she knew his chemo, radiation, and ten medications killed him prematurely. She vowed to find out what made him sick, why he died, what role medications played in his demise, and how she could avoid the same fate. The more Wendy learned, the more she realized that all the answers to health do not lie in our medical system. Food, detoxification and natural healing modalities must be used to compliment the advances in modern medicine.
The popular mantra, 'I am enough,' is actually an insult; it is disempowering. I get that it is a bridge in the self-development process because of the programming that people have received and they believe this lie but the analogy that I like to use is: If you went to a beautiful mountain lake and saw the most epic sunset of your entire life and you said, 'You are enough; yeah, that's enough'; what are you talking about? We are so much more than 'enough;' that is the understatement of the century. That belief has to change. - Tara Garrison Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

Power Quotes From The Show How to Tap Into Your Creation Energy "You already are worthy. 100% you are worthy of success, of love, of better health. You don't even have to question that and the more you know that the more you will just be. A tree isn't sitting there wondering if it's worthy, it just is. Remember this when you catch yourself with a negative mindset about your body, work, or personal growth. When we see our worth; we feel it and when we resonate in it full of gratitude and truly see ourselves, that is actually creation energy. When you tap into that, you're no longer coming from a place of scarcity and trying to prove yourself to the world." - Tara Garrison Why Are We Attracted to Food Camps? "We are so attracted to specific food camps because of our lack of self-development and people wanting to be led, taught, and get the Cliff notes of what is best. Then maybe they try that diet and they truly do feel better and it helps them. For example, If someone heals their SIBO with the carnivore diet, they are going to be feeling a lot better. But then if you have all of these respectable health professionals telling you all the reasons why this is THE best diet in the world for all humans, which a lot of it is for their monetary gain, you're not going to be really listening to yourself and what your own body needs. If all of that happens, you are setting yourself up to be in this very safe way of thinking." - Tara Garrison Getting Back Into Powerful Alignment "When you are out of alignment, ask yourself, 'What is my fear?' Are you investing in yourself? Do you take courses, hire mindset coaches, or follow intuitive nudges and go on a trip that your intuition told you to do just for you?" - Tara Garrison Links From Today's Show Inside Out Podcast Episode 13: JOSH TRENT Breathwork, Ayahuasca & Following Your Heart Higher 1:1 Coaching Short Term Keto by Tara Garrison 338 Tara Garrison: Inside Out Health Bruce H.

This is the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast. And today on a very special solocast, I'm gonna share with you the best of the best downloads, uploads, and knowledge that I've turned into wisdom through compassion and emotional intelligence during a Vision Quest. Now, if you don't know what a Vision Quest is, it's 10 days out in nature. Four of those days are fasting, which if you haven't done it fast before, don't worry. This is something you can do. If you are here on this video with me, or if you're listening on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, then you know that since day one, my mission has been, "How do I live my life?" Well, how do we live our lives? By understanding this Wellness Pentagon: the mental, physical, emotional, spiritual, and financial responsibilities that all of us signed up for here on planet earth... [01:00] This Vision Quest's Gift And at times, tell me if you resonate with this - at times, it feels like there's only so much energy to go around. Do you feel me on that? Write a comment or write to me if right now in your life, you have been dealing with a lack of energy or an understanding of Qi where you're trying to fill up all these aspects of the Pentagon, but then as soon as you get your relationships great, or your health great, or your spirituality great, one of those sides of the Pentagon tends to be neglected, tends to fall away. And I think this is really the balancing act that all of us signed up for here on planet earth. And if you get one thing from what I share with you from my heart today, I want you to get the gift that I received, or at least if you can't get the full gift of this vision quest, you can, at the very least start your pathway to get the gift that I received. [spacer height="20px"] [01:50] The Power of Forgiveness And that gift to start out is forgiveness. And I'm gonna talk about two types of forgiveness right now. So if you're listening, pull over, if you're in nature, take a deep breath with me because forgiveness is something that I think is intellectualized. And I think there's a lot of content out there about forgiveness, but to truly forgive yourself and to truly forgive someone else, there's a pathway, there's a pathway to get there. And I'm gonna talk about what that pathway is and, and what came through for me, essentially in this Vision Quest. Now, this is my second year in the quest with Tim Corcoran of purposemountain.com. It's an incredible experience that he's created. And this year, last year we were in the mountains in Idaho. This year, we were in the desert, just east of Santa Barbara. And I went out there and it was so wild. [02:45] Chaos Seeking Order So wild. I got sick, I got this crazy sinus infection right before I went out there and I got really angry and I got pissed off. And I was like, why is this happening? You know, trying to like, just go through the lesson without trying to attach, to learning the lesson without actually going through it, tell me if you can relate to that. And by the time I got out there, and by the time I got finished with the quest, which I'm gonna share with you right now, I realized that all things are chaos seeking order. And I truly believe this, all things are chaos seeking order. Now, what do I mean by that? Well, to flashback the two things, two aspects of forgiveness is one: forgiving myself and two: forgiving others, right? I believe it's in the Lord's prayer. You know, forgive the things about others and forgive the things about myself that are actually applicable... [03:40] Embodied Forgiveness And grant me the wisdom to know the difference between the things I can change and the things I cannot. And that's a really big one because I'm not necessarily a religious man, but these two aspects that we're gonna go into right now, forgiving myself and forgiving others. These are the ultimate. And I truly believe that if there is an embodied forgiveness inside of myself and an embodied forgiveness that I have for others that have trespassed against me, or that have harmed me, or that have been malicious towards me, forgiveness does not mean forgetting. So just because I forgive someone, it doesn't mean that I forget the harms that they have projected or perpetrated onto me. All forgiveness is, is a gift that I unwrap with the courage of my heart. And that is it. Forgiveness is the gift that I unwrap using the courage of my heart. [04:40] Forgiving My Father Now, what do I mean by that? In my own example, I got a sinus infection. I went out for year two to the Santa Barbara mountains and for the first three or four days, going through these ego disintegration processes, really sharing the things in my life that are holding me back. There was this common theme, a common theme that came up for me, and that was forgiveness around my father. Now in the previous year, I had done a lot of work forgiving my father and in the year that followed, in the year of integration that followed after the first year, there was a lot of experiences and a lot of different connection points with my father, both email and text, where I did everything I could to establish a healthy boundary and to let him know from my heart to his that if you want to be in my life, if you want to be in my son's life, if you want to have any love or connection that it's so important, we have a foundation of kindness. [05:30] The Process of Death & Rebirth And unfortunately in the way that sometimes things go in life, that foundation of kindness was not respected. It was not honored. And so what came up for me during the quest was this process of death and rebirth. This process of truly, truly letting go. And for all of us, men or women that have had father wounding, this is for you. I went out to my site and after three days of really having so much come up for me on the quest, I sat at the site for about an hour and I looked down and I saw this rock and I wish I had it here in the studio (We're still building out the studio behind me). And I looked down and I saw this rock. And it, it was a rock that looked exactly like a Pentagon. I mean, it could not have been placed there by chance. [06:26] Lessons from God & Mother Nature This rock was the perfect shape of a Pentagon. And I was going through all these different mental cycles of how do I live my best life? How do I be there for my son and my woman and my business. And the answer was a lack of ego integration makes the body physically tired, which leads to me getting sick and having a sinus infection. So I'm sitting there, I'm holding the rock. That's shaped just like a Pentagon. And I break down in tears. I mean, I literally am sobbing because I'm realizing that not only does God and nature, give me every single answer that I ever need to live my life well, but I am actually the one that resists these lessons. And I resist these lessons because I think there was still a part of my child, my inner child, my young boy inside. And he just wanted the father that he never had. [07:24] Healing My Inner Child He wanted his father to be someone that maybe was never really possible. And so the father inside of me being a father to Novah and the man inside of me, leading a movement, leading a business, being here with you, there's an honoring of this that comes through in a Vision Quest because there's no food. There's just water. I'm out there in the middle of nowhere with nothing, just my thoughts and my breath. And it's really magical. What happens when we go out there and what was really magical for me, because I climbed up on this mountaintop. It was maybe two, 300 yards up this mountain. And I sat, cause I just wanted a higher perspective. I wanted a higher perspective on what nature, what God was actually trying to share with me. And I knew it was time. I knew it was time for my own individual ceremony. [08:20] Honoring The Individual Ceremony And this is what gets thrown around a lot. People say the word 'ceremony.' Ceremony, true ceremony is the most sacred thing that we have. Life is a sacred ceremony. Being in communion with nature is a sacred ceremony. Conscious, sacred sex is a ceremony, friendships. I mean everything in life is sacred yet all of us tend to, and I fell into this trap many, many times and still I'll be honest, continue to, right? We're human. But the difference is I have this awareness that was shown to me on that mountaintop when I wanted the higher perspective because the higher perspective is this to the degree that I forgive others. And to the degree that I forgive myself, that is the quality of my life. And I've heard people say this before Tony Robbins and Oprah and all these different speakers, but truly the ultimate gift that I got from the quest this year was letting go of these expectations that my father has to be a certain way. [9:25] Surrendering Control And this is really big because I can have healthy boundaries that I express and that I enforce, but I can't control the outcome. I can't control the outcome. I can't control how other people show up to me or show up to a relationship with me just like I can't control the wind. You know, I can't control the clouds or the sun. So to bring it back in those two ways that I told you, we were gonna go deep on today, the two aspects of forgiveness, I walked down that mountain and I did the hardest part, which was forgiving myself, forgiving myself for all the ways that I had treated women and used pornography and, and lied to others. And really just not been in integrity with myself, I guess you could call it like a spiritual role call that I was being placed in. And in this spiritual role call, I was able to see all the ways that my own father in his own life and, and all of our fathers really, but specifically my own father, wasn't able to show up in the ways that he wanted to, because of his lack of forgiveness or his relationship with his father, his very own father. [10:40] Epigentic Transfers of Trauma And I closed my eyes and I saw how Alan Watts talks about familial patterns or epigenetic transfer of trauma, or just ways of being. It's like all wretch and no vomit. He says where you raise your children by your behaviors and your subconscious ways of being that children absorb. And then they grow up and raised their children in the exact same way. It's all wretch and no vomit. And so for about three or four hours, I don't know, cause I didn't have a watch, but three or four hours, I sat there at my campsite during the quest and I cried and I made mental notes. And then when the time was right, I buried a hole in the ground. I found a bone of a deer and I buried that bone in the ground and I put some rocks and I put some loving intentions into it. [11:26] The "Burial" of My Father And I spoke to the burial of my father. Now, granted he's still alive, but because of challenges that we've had, I've had to set some very bright, hard boundaries about his way of being with me and the way that he's allowed or really anyone right now, I'm talking about him, but anyone is allowed to interact with me. And that is with a baseline of kindness. And so I said to my father as I buried the bone and I buried this relationship with him, I said, "I have to let you go. I have to let you go because of this lack of forgiveness for you. And this lack of forgiveness for myself is killing me. It's hurting." And so I buried the bone and I wept because the freedom that I felt after burying the expectations of how this person should show up all simultaneously, knowing that I am going to have the bright-line boundaries, that if he wants to engage with me with kindness, if he wants to be a part of my son's life, if he wants to be a part of my woman's life that he can. [12:40] Healing My Father Wound And, and I said to him, "The door is always open. I'm not here burying you forever. I'm just burying any kind of resentment or the things that are blocking my forgiveness towards you in this very ground." And that was freedom. I buried him in the ground. Wiped my hands. Tasted the dirt and I said, "I'm burying you, father, with kindness and I'm here. The door is here. If you want to return that kindness back." And then came the work over the next three, four days of me integrating this, keeping this promise to myself, to establish and, and really have these hard, bright-line boundaries with him and with all people so that the father inside of me can shine. [13:20] Processing & Integrating The Lessons And this was a really big deal. This was a huge deal for me because I think I had to go through that first year of anger and processing to really get to the second year so that the lessons could integrate in the earth that I was standing on. And that was a big one. The last thing I'm gonna read to you is when I got back to the circle and I was integrating with the group, I wanna read this to you because this was something that I actually journaled, but I lost my journal and when I lost my journal, I just had to go off of this recording. Luckily someone in the group put their phone down as we were integrating. And I wanna share this with you. I know this is gonna be really powerful if you yourself have dealt with any kind of a father wound. And so on the very last night, on the fourth night, I seriously felt like that fourth night was an entire day. And I was like, is this ever gonna end? [14:27] I Will Not Live in Fear And I just stripped off everything. I stripped off everything and put my sleeping bag to the side. As the moon was bright, I just stood up and I said, "I will not live my life in fear. I will not live my life in fear, fear of not forgiving someone, fear of not forgiving myself, fear of what might happen, fear of poverty, fear of anything, fear of disease." And then I laid there and my heart was pounding after four days of fasting. And I, I asked Spirit this powerful question, which I'm gonna read to you now on the final hour of the last night, the darkest hour, I laid in my sleeping bag under the stars to feel the cool wind on my face and hear the owls hooting in the distance. [15:25] Asking for God's Guidance My stomach was rumbling so hard in the most intense way as if the grumbling was the shroud of twisted energy that bends the branches of the trees and coils their trunks with my heart racing, I lay on the earth asking for guidance to God from humility. I said, "God, Great Spirit, Mother Earth. Why do I feel so nervous and experience deep anxiety before I record big podcasts and speak in front of large groups? I feel as if there's a weight on my chest and my mind races to be seen as perfect. I ask you humbly, what is the truth? I've experienced this feeling for so long, this restlessness I'm seeking your wisdom. I'm seeking your relief. And after what seemed like 10 minutes, she finally answered. [16:13] Choosing Freedom She said, "Child, you must love yourself." "Deeply know this every single time, big or small that you've experienced trauma from parents, society, school, bullies, friends, or even more subtle and sinister and subversive like mental trauma from media propaganda teaching and forcing you to distrust yourself every single time you closed your heart in fear or shame, a record was created." "Your ego subconscious has been creating a live-in library for you, your entire existence, and everything big or small that made you close your heart. A record was stored over time." "Little by little, every single record was written and recorded deep in the mental recesses by the ego to keep you safe from pain. But this safety came with an ultimate price, a price that can only be paid by the integration of all the fear and shame with the courage and wisdom of your heart. If you want to be free, you must choose." [17:17] Reopening Our Hearts "You must choose to enter healing, spiral a path to remove the shackles of safety because life is not always safe. My child life is wild and this is the price that must be. And this is the price that must bravely be paid." "So, the light of your soul can be free to shine bright as it did when you were a child, because you see my child, it was not your fault that you closed your heart. It is all just a part of life. And now the noble responsibility to free your soul lies at your feet." "Now, look down and see the uncountable pebbles lay before you and know each pebble is a time that you closed your heart. When someone caused you hurt when the pain was too much to hold with the level of your maturity and strength now is the time. So bend down child and pick up as many pebbles as your two hands can hold." [18:14] Your Body is Your Subconscious "Knowing that your body is your subconscious mind - as above so below - and know that it is your body that has built a wall around your heart and extra weight around your physical body, for that pain and know that it is your body that has built a wall around your heart and extra weight around your physical body." "For the pain, no one trusts. You're not alone. My child, I am with you. We are all with you. All your ancestors are holding and loving you for all the pebbles in your blood that they themselves could not heal in their lifetimes. For those they gave to you, forgive them." "They did not know you are the chosen one. Not because you're more special than those who came before you, but because you and I are special just like them. And you have the courage and the chance they may not have had." [19:09] Healing Our Trauma "And you have the courage and the chance they may not have had. So bend down and pick up all the pebbles you can hold with your two hands. Do not fret. If summer spilled, there is time. My sweet child, there is time now. Breathe." "One by one, hold each pebble in your hand and place it on your heart. Feel what needs to be felt. Scream, belt, scream, cry, shake. If you must. So as you feel it fully, the pebble will melt and move through you. These rocks are too. These rocks are too heavy to carry any longer, and there will be more to carry on the path ahead." "It is your strength and grace that will guide you to the truth. Open your heart to this truth, my child, that you are loved. You are supported and with pebbles in your hands and at your feet, you are on the right path." It's good to feel that truth. It is so refreshing to know that all of us, every single human being, I don't care if you're four years old or 42 or 84, we all have trauma. We all have wounding. And it's actually the societal narrative that blocks us from exploring it, from unpacking it, from getting to the root of it. Is that,"I'm okay. Everything's okay. Good vibes only..." [20:40] "Good Vibes Only" is a Lie But it's all a lie. I know that from this quest and from the act of the two phases of forgiveness that I've shared with you, both forgiveness for myself and forgiveness for others, it is the gift that I unwrap with the courage of my heart. It is the gift that I know I can give to others repeatedly because life is a series of events where we'll have to forgive ourselves and others for the ways that we treat ourselves for the narratives that we speak to us and for the narratives and the ways that we speak to others. And if you've gotten anything from this solocast, make sure you keep listening. I'm gonna share exactly what happened in the group. So keep listening to this now, but if you received any wisdom from this that you were positively impacted by, that really meant a lot to you write it in the comments below, or you can message me on Instagram or just write me a personal message. Also for more resources, you can go to joshtrent.com/437. That's joshtrent.com/437 That's where I list a ton of resources to support you for free and the five sides of your Wellness Pentagon. Look, I don't have it all figured out, but I'm at a wonderful place compared to where I used to be. That is for sure. The place I'm at now, after going through two years of the quest, knowing that there are more years ahead of me, that's the most honest... [22:14] Sharing My Forgiveness of Self and of Others And the most real experience I can give to you is that I, myself am still a student on this path of wellness in life. The greatest gift that I ever have in this world is sharing my forgiveness of self and my forgiveness of others right here with you. And I want to end by just this quote that I've mentioned on the podcast a few times, but I've also really been swallowing this and feeling this in my heart of my solar plexus. It's from Rumi. And as we say goodbye, let Rumi guide you here. Take a deep breath. Beyond right and wrong beyond right and wrong. There is a field I will meet you there.

The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

"When you fast, you force yourself to become more aware of what you consume; whether it be food or media. So, when people need to detox from propaganda and marketing, I will them to do an advertising fast. Without changing their behavior otherwise, they see how long they can go without seeing, hearing, or viewing an advertisement. People think doing a 24-hour food fast is hard but this is impossible because the only way that you'll escape is if you don't have your phone on and you're in the woods." - Sky King Are You Stressed Out Lately?

His obsession with how the media programs and shapes our reality led him down the path of understanding media manipulation, realizing in 2016 that podcasting was escaping the standard media model. Sky has made it his mission to continue allowing podcasts to stay outside the influence of advertising and keep their content sincere. His podcast Sky King's Mental Playground focuses on the tension between centralized and decentralized systems, specifically on propaganda, financial systems, and political systems. You can listen at skmp.supercast.com or follow Sky on Twitter @consumersky or Instagtram @iamaskyking. Propaganda, Art, Health, Regenerative Systems, Great Food, Economic Incentives, and building companies in an increasingly digital world. All of these concepts live in the balance of centralized and decentralized systems. I believe that if we are not careful, we will watch the pendulum swing away from self-governance, and in that swing, we have the opportunity to lose the future of humanity to the dark side. These are the concepts that own my mind space. This podcast is an opportunity to play with these ideas with world leaders, entrepreneurs, my homies, and people that I find generally exciting or entertaining. It is called a playground for a reason. This podcast will be as fun as it is informative; we are tackling society's most pervasive issues, but in a way that we are undoubtedly going to fuck up, scribble on, and get hurt. Podcasting: A Gamified Media Model? Why Attention The New NFT
An Akashic record is believed to be this energetic space that holds your soul's history. If you think of western Christianity and Judaism, they call it the book of life. In Eastern traditions, they call it Akasha Primary Substance but it's this idea that every single thing that you have ever done in the history of your soul's life, not this incarnation, has been recorded and stored somewhere." - Laura Coe Wellness + Wisdom Episode 451 Akashic Records Reader, Author of The Nature of Series, and Founder of The Little Soul School, Laura Coe, returns to share the truth behind the Akashic Records, how to unlock your potential in our 3D world, as well as the concepts of soul splitting, twin flames, and soulmates.

[31:30] Soul Splitting at Inception & Healing a Loss of Wellbeing The loss of wellbeing and different emotions that a person will go through when they experience a soul split. Her belief and understanding that our souls split at inception and that is what creates our twin flame.

Why people can be so drawn to dark energy that they find themselves stuck there rather than being in the light. The fact that bad emotions aren't seen as being wrong in the Akashic Records. Why experiencing bad or negative thoughts, emotions, and behavior is all part of being human. Powerful lessons that we can learn from negative and heavy human experiences such as recognizing and embracing positive ones. Why it's not important whether or not you are or were angry about something but the time difference between the experience and lack of attachment. [40:00] Soul Contract & Free Will Unpacking spiritual bypassing and why sometimes people use it knowingly or unknowingly to protect themselves. Why sometimes we're not ready to heal or fix things and so spiritual bypassing and being positive all the time is a shield people use to protect themselves. Caroline Myss Exploring how the soul contract that we are born with and our free will are combined in this human experience. The plan we all created for ourselves before we came into this world so we can have the experiences and lessons we wanted to experience. Why it may take a soul several lifetimes to finally experience or learn something in this world that they have set out in their contract. The fact that sometimes a soul contract isn't fulfilled and that then creates karma. Why karma isn't a bad spiritual debt, it's just owed without any negative attachment to it. The nagging, excruciating feeling that people can experience when they don't think they're living up to their potential or purpose but they don't know what to do next.

The powerful practice of dropping in a couple of times a day into the things that make you pause like thinking about something or someone you love. Why dharma is like building a muscle over time: the more and more you practice and micro drop into, it will help you work your way to finding your purpose. The fact that many people are blocked from living their dharma by comparing it to other people's dharmas. Laura's own struggles and exploration phase as she searched for her calling. The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma by Bessel van der Kolk MD Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma by Peter A.

Why you can have many soul mates but just one twin flame. How twin flames help mirror back not just weaknesses but strengths as well.

How the healing for a twin flame might continue down the line for 3 or more lifetimes even. Laura's relationship with her twin flame and why she's become 10x a better person because of it despite how hard it is in reality. How to know if you've really met your twin flame that is helping you evolve or if you're just in a toxic relationship. What Laura is currently working on for herself right now including releasing and accepting that maybe it's okay to not know everything. Power Quotes From The Show Why We Don't Really Want Success "When we think about success and how we define that and what that looks like; it's very easy to achieve success. Just get out there and grind; don't listen to anything, work 12 hours a day, just go for it and you will get success somewhere but that's not what people want. They want a sense of fulfillment, a sense of connection to themselves, and then that is reflected in the real world. That's why people come up empty-handed when it's all done; they worked hard, they built a business, but something doesn't feel right." - Laura Coe The Healing & Struggle of Twin Flames "The idea of a twin flame is that your soul has split in half and you have one other soul that is your other half. You don't meet in lifetimes that often but when you do there is this rapid growth of learning which causes a lot of struggle because you mirror each other's deepest wounds for the other person to rapidly heal and mostly unknowingly you're mirroring. The struggle is deep and often there is a lot of breaking up, a lot of challenges, and oftentimes the relationships don't work because it's so hard to be around somebody who mirrors you to that degree. It's for your soul growth and it is for your highest good so that you can heal these things and move into the world." - Laura Coe The Difference Between Soul Mates & Twin Flames "Whereas there's one Twin Flame, there are lots of Soul Mates we can meet during our lifetimes. Soul mates are like your best friend that you have had over many lifetimes. They are these souls that you reincarnate with a lot and there is that comfort. You meet how many people in a year in work and even just comings and goings but once in a while you meet someone who is like family to you." - Laura Coe Links From Today's Show The Little Soul School Akashic Readings with Laura Coe 243 Laura Coe: Emotional Obesity Emotional Obesity by Laura Coe Get the first three books in Laura Coe's Nature of series: The Nature of Love, The Nature of Self-Love, and The Nature of Boundaries.

She found her calling in philosophy, which she studied at Brandeis, as well as in graduate school at Tufts University. After realizing she didn't want to pursue academia, she went on to become a healthcare tech entrepreneur. After selling her company in 2006, she came back to her philosophical roots and wrote Emotional Obesity, as well as hosted the popular podcast, The Art of Authenticity.

Their 100% Grass Fed Beef Sticks are unlike anything else on the market. In fact, they were recently voted in Paleo Magazine as one of the top snacks of the year. The reason is that they are committed to making the highest quality, clean products that are free from problematic ingredients. Their beef comes from 100% grass fed cows raised entirely on natural grass pastures by family farmers right here in the USA. As a result they are healthy and happy. PaleoValley's Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks Paleovalley Pasture-Raised Turkey Sticks were created to make healthy snacking easier. Their turkey sticks are made from turkeys who are allowed to live as nature intended... on organic grass pastures with plenty of sunshine, fresh air and room to exercise. The result of raising turkeys in such a natural way is a much healthier, clean protein with higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and omega-3s. Unfortunately, virtually all turkey in the USA is conventionally raised with a small portion being "free range" – a virtually meaningless term that simply means the turkeys were allowed access to the outdoors. However, most "free range" turkeys only have access to an outdoor dirt field with no pasture in sight. Their truly pasture-raised turkeys are given full access to outdoor, pesticide-free pasture with plenty of grass and insects for them to nibble on.

Her own health issues and why neither she nor her doctor could understand what was wrong and western medicine couldn't cure her so they sent her to visit a homeopathic practitioner. Vaccines Are They Really Safe and Effective? by Neil Z. Miller The moment she first heard about the medical intervention debate and began looking into it. Why she decided to start the Health Freedom Defense Fund. What lawsuits they have filed and the current status on some of them including mask and medical intervention mandates. [18:00] Bodily Autonomy Unpacking what bodily autonomy is and how it plays a part in protecting our sovereign selves. Josh and Carrie's own experience taking Novah to the NICU and how they were treated for taking their son home before the hospital wanted them to. Her research on bodily autonomy and the 3 major things that people should be taking into account. Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) Indiana life insurance CEO says deaths are up 40% among people ages 18-64 Deaths associated with newly launched SARS-CoV-2 vaccination (Comirnaty®) VERIFY: CDC & FDA data doesn't support false claims thousands have died from COVID-19 vaccines Arizona police officers forcibly removed 2-year-old boy with fever from home, video shows [34:45] How to Make Statistics Lie How to Lie with Statistics by Darrell Huff What the data about CV 19 and medical intervention are telling us today. How you can make statistics about CV 19 lie and where we're seeing this in the media. Why there is such a small chance of getting CV 19 without the medical intervention compared to getting it. The dramatic decrease we saw in numbers from the CDC at the same moment Russa invaded Ukraine. Why not all adverse reactions to vaccines have been reported to VEARS. The number of people who experience reactions according to the research data. [41:35] The HFDF's Mission Fighting Mandates The Health Freedom Defense Fund's mission and how they operate. Some of the team members of HFDF and how they've contributed to the mission with their expertise. The incredible demand for assistance they have received and so much so that they haven't been able to help with every case yet.

Breaking down the spiritual and informational war that we are in the middle of right now. Why she believes that globalism is the problem and localism is the solution and what that means for our modern world. The power we have to do everything that we can to develop a local food system, a local currency, and a true healthcare system.

Armstrong Economics Why it's predicted that the USA will divorce into those who do care to fight for our freedom and those who don't by 2032. The dark nights of the soul that Leslie has gone through since the start of 2020 and lockdowns began to happen. How we can begin rebuilding the world that we want to live in by starting with our own local communities with a positive vision. What wellness means to her now compared to when Josh interviewed her in 2020. Why the mass resignation is a sign that people are waking up and they don't want to be mindless robots, they want to do something that empowers them and serves their inner purpose. Power Quotes From The Show The Ongoing Spiritual War "We are in a spiritual and informational war; it's just that most people don't realize it because no shots have been fired in this country. The spiritual war is between those who believe that you're nothing more than a bag of bones and those who believe, like you and I do, that we're much greater, more powerful, and more important beings than that. I personally believe that we are individual points of consciousness; spiritual beings having a physical experience here on this planet." - Leslie Manookian Globalism is the Problem, Localism is the Solution "We have to lead with love. My new mantra is, 'Globalism is the problem, localism is the solution.' When I say that, what I mean is that we need to come together and build, strengthen, fortify, and reclaim our communities. We must reclaim them from the powers that are trying to centralize them under a one world's government. That means doing everything you can to develop a local food system, a true healthcare - not sickcare - system, and even create a local currency." - Leslie Manookian How to Live Life Well in 2022 "Part of our modern-day crisis is that people are waking up and realizing that maybe they're not happy with what they're doing with their lives. They don't want to be mindless robots; they want to be something else and I think that is really critical. You have to do something that actually fulfills and inspires you; I don't think you can be well unless you are doing that. Second, I think you have to keep working on yourself; whether it's your anxiety or your anger to the point that you recognize your behavior patterns and take action to change. Lastly; you have to have community. You need that support system when you face events like the ones since 2020." - Leslie Manookian Links From Today's Show CV 19 Truth Series: Protecting Your Health Freedom Health Freedom Defense Fund Grand Jury Day Five with Leslie Manookian Health Freedom Defense Fund Interviews 344 Leslie Manookian: CV 19 - The Truth About Flattening The Curve Vaccines Are They Really Safe and Effective? by Neil Z.

Bitcoin is this pattern of pure honesty; there is nothing hidden. It's an open-sourced code and it's definable so that no matter which way you look at it, you see it in its totality. If money is such an important pattern for the human species, doesn't it make sense that an honest, truthful, sincere pattern like that would resonate with us? In the same way that fiat currency corrupted our character and our souls, doesn't it make sense that this un-incorruptible money would cleanse us of that? - Robert Breedlove Are You Stressed Out Lately?

Murray Rothbard How taxes classify into two groups: People who benefit and people who do not. Breaking down our state's security system and how we outsource it.

Power Quotes From The Show The Integrity of Money & Blockchain "If the integrity of money is a core contributor to the integrity of civilization, that is one useful way to look at the value of bitcoin. We have for the first time in history, a perfectly predictable money. It's a fixed supply of 21 million; no one can change it and no political force can do anything about it. No government can outlaw it, sanction it, or seize it. If it's custodied properly, it cannot be seized and that is very important. If it cannot be inflated that's very important. Bitcoin is the first property right that is independent." - Robert Breedlove What is Money? "Money is a device for expressing value across spacetime. Gold was great for expressing value across time, but not space. Currency is great for expressing value across space, but not time. Bitcoin is the only money optimized for the expression of value across both space and time." - Robert Breedlove How Fiat Currency Controls Us "Fiat currency is about control. It's about wanting to project a mental model onto the world and wanting everyone to be a chess piece in that mental model so you can be moved around like a cog in a machine. Humans are not cogs in a machine; we're dynamic, complex self-sovereign systems. To try and reduce someone to a piece on a chessboard just doesn't work. This idea of control has been with us forever and we've been wrestling with this as a species since the beginning of time." - Robert Breedlove Links From Today's Show Parallax Digital The "What is Money?"

To this end, Robert's mission is to restore freedom, truth, and virtue in our world by tenaciously asking the question: "What is Money?"
Part of the biggest problem of these processed foods is that they're sold to you as health foods so you don't think that they're bad for you but they are, right? Some people who have poor health are very overweight and they know it but they're like, 'Yeah but I love Popeye's and I eat fried chicken all the time and that's my thing.' That wasn't the case with my parents.

Power Quotes From The Show You Can't Cheat Nature "People are looking for a hack or to cheat nature; you can cheat nature in other ways like flying a plane but you cannot cheat your way to better health. You can't just take a pill that will make you feel like you slept for 8 hours when you really only did 3 hours. It doesn't work like that - just the same, something like fake Beyond Meat is never going to be as good as real meat." - Brian Sanders The First Step of Your New Health Identity "You have to value your wellness first to really begin to navigate your new health identity. You need to understand how valuable what you eat is and that if you do this, you will have long-term health. That is step 1. If you know enough about this, you study it and believe it enough to say to yourself, 'I will not die of Alzheimer's or cancer or heart disease and I want to live as long as I can, I need to eat better.' Then you've set in motion your desire to eat more whole foods and get rid of anything with sugar, flour, and seed oils." - Brian Sanders The Unfair Demonization of Meat "Let's not get stuck in a food camp and sometimes we're actually fighting the wrong battle. Take meat for example; it has been unfairly demonized for so long but the real enemy is processed foods: sugar, flour, and seed oils make up about 80% of the grocery store in different versions put together with different flavorings and combinations. When we look at food instincts and intuitive eating; what did we eat for all of history? We didn't have the sugar, flour, and seed oils - we had the meat and we were eating fish, eggs, and any other fruits and vegetables that we could find and that's it; it's the simplest diet ever. - Brian Sanders Links From Today's Show Sapien Peak Human Podcast Nose to Tail 112 Mark Sisson Chris Masterjohn PhD 357 Robb Wolf | Sacred Cow: The Case for (Better) Meat Diana Rogers, RD Joe Rogan: Diana Rogers and Robb Wolf | The Corporatization of Food Dr. Ted Naiman The Dorito Effect by Mark Schatzker 129 Gretchen Rubin 362 Zach Bush MD: Saving The Soil, Saving Humanity 365 Dr. Paul Saladino | Your Guide To The Carnivore Diet: The Myths of Eating Meat & Plants Barilla's message to America: Pasta is healthy Sourdough - Bill Schindler's How It's Made - Canola Oil Dr. Chris Knobbe Patreon | Peak Human Shop the Wellness Force Store breathwork.io Paleovalley – Save 15% on your ACV Complex with the code ‘JOSH' Seeking Health - Save 10% with the code 'JOSH' Organifi – Special 20% off to our listeners with the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' Drink LMNT – Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, you only cover the cost of shipping Botanic Tonics – Save 40% when you use the code ‘WELLNESS40' Essential Oil Wizardry: Save 10% with the code 'WELLNESSFORCE' Cured Nutrition – Get 15% off of your order when you visit wellnessforce.com/cured + use the code ‘WELLNESSFORCE' M21 Wellness Guide Wellness Force Community Leave Wellness Force a review on iTunes Brian Sanders Instagram Twitter Food Lies Film Instagram Facebook YouTube About Brian Sanders Brian Sanders quit his job and dedicated his life to studying health and nutrition. He is trying his best to be unbiased and to simplify the conflicting advice out there and distill down concepts into something anyone can understand. Brian is not a doctor or nutritionist. He is a mechanical engineer and he lost both of his parents to chronic disease and has set off on his own path for the last 4 years to study this topic and make sure he doesn't fall to the same fate. His role is the curator, the communicator. He has interviewed over 100 of the top scientists, doctors, nutritionists, fitness experts, and other health professionals and has come to find some simple truths that he'd like to share. A lot of this will be presented in the feature length documentary called Food Lies, but it's not all about the film. He is spreading this information to the public anyway he can. Not only has he created the Peak Human podcast, he posts daily ideas and information on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, and soon to he'll be doing more videos on youtube. The bigger goal is to change the way we do healthcare. That's why he started the parent company of these projects called SAPIEN (http://sapien.org). They are building technology to help doctors, health coaches, and patients communicate more effectively and reverse chronic diseases.
