Discernment in the Age of Channeling: Is It Spirit or Spiritual Bypassing?We are living in a time of incredible spiritual awakening.More of us are tuning in, receiving guidance, channeling messages, and reconnecting to the unseen realms.But with that expansion comes a deeper invitation:Can we stay anchored in truth while reaching for the stars?Can we hold space for our very real, human healing—while still honoring the divine?This episode is a call back to clarity. Not from fear—but from love.As more channeled messages flood our spiritual spaces, many sound radiant, empowering, and full of light. But some also carry subtle messages that may leave people feeling invalidated, ashamed for their "human" struggle, or pressured to “rise” before they're ready.This conversation is not about rejection—it's about refinement.It's about recognizing when spiritual language uplifts… and when it unintentionally disconnects us from the sacredness of our healing and the very essence of our sacred human experience as well. We explore what true Divine guidance feels like, how to spot distortion without judgment, and how to stay rooted in your own Soul-led discernment—so you can walk your path in wholeness, not performance.

In this interview, Bonni McCliss discusses the great shift towards spiritual truths, psychic predictions around solar flares, navigating the eclipse season, and more. She explores the concept of moving from doing to being and offers guidance on how to navigate the unknown. Bonnie also emphasizes the significance of the sun and its effects on our biology and intuition. Bonni highlights the power of imagination and the practice of reverence in lightening the heart. She also discusses the future of humanity, including transparency, unity consciousness, and compassion, and offers practical tips for infusing more light into one's sound current.Bonni McCliss is a gifted psychic, channel, healer, medium, certified hypnotherapist and internationally recognized author. She is a scholar of the Akashic Records and uses the knowledge to help others overcome their perceived limitations and guide them beyond the boundaries of their own thinking. Bonni was aware of her gifts as a child but only recognized them as gifts later in life. Having only her inner guidance to lead the way, she began immersing herself in understanding the teachings of the Ancient Mystery Schools. Through her studies she not only began to understand her own gifts but she also gained the knowledge to show others how to apply these ancient teachings to their busy, modern lives. It is her hope that through these teachings, she will enable others to transcend to living their highest timeline. During the past twenty years, Bonni has touched the lives of thousands. She regularly leads workshops and retreats across the US, including Sedona, Los Angeles, New York and Nashville. She also helped create The Legend of Greater Things Dome, a sacred retreat center located on a crystal grid and beautiful forest outside of Hot Springs, Arkansas. This center brings healing to others through yoga, meditation, sound, and intuitive development workshops. ___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 - Bonni McCliss Intro01:47 - Exploring Emerging Spiritual Truths02:23 - The Call to Authenticity and Living Your Purpose04:25 - Higher Beings' Guidance on the Shift to Being10:55 - Co-Creating a New Earth12:56 - The Journey Back to Unity and Connection15:17 - Solar Flare Maximum & Its Effects21:03 - The Thinning Veils and Accessing Memories 24:03 - Balancing Past Traumas and Hidden Talents28:03 - Spiritual Bypassing and the Importance of Integration31:13 - Rediscovering the Power of Imagination34:57 - Lightening the Heart: Egyptian Wisdom39:26 - Andromeda Frequencies & Galactic Center44:09 - Importance of Community and Ceremony 45:24 - Accessing the Avatar State 50:04 - The Dalai Lama's Life-Changing Wisdom54:12 - The Power of Sacred Reciprocity56:20 - Diving into the Akashic Records58:08 - Family Dynamics and Healing Through Lineages01:00:34 - Dream Work 01:01:18 - What Bonnie's Dreams Reveal About Humanity's Future01:09:14 - Miracles, Imagination, and the Power of Belief01:09:47 - Cycles of Darkness01:12:31 - Humanity's Connection to the Sasani Beings01:22:51 - The Mystery of Zero Point Energy and Ancient Technology01:24:30 - Raising Psychic Children and New Earth Teachings01:30:32 - The Challenge of Attracting Broken Souls01:35:24 - The Next Harmonic Convergence for Humanity___________________Guest: Bonni McCliss, Akashic Psychic & Hypnotherapist✦ Website | https://www.psychicbonni.com/✦ Instagram |   / akashicconsciousness  ✦ Facebook |   / bonni.mccliss  ✦ Work With Bonni | https://www.psychicbonni.com/work-wit...✦ Bonni's Book, 'The Other Side of Normal' | https://www.psychicbonni.com/other-si...✦ Legend of Greater Things | https://www.thelegendofgreaterthings....Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ Instagram |   / iamemilioortiz  ✦ Subscribe to YouTube Channel | ‪@EmilioOrtiz‬ ✦ Watch Emilio's latest series on 4biddenknowledge TV l https://bit.ly/AwakenThe6thSense✦ Shop Our Clothing Collection l https://www.unlockedmovement.com/coll...

“Many of us begin the spiritual path because we simply want to feel better. And this desire to feel good can take us some distance on the path. It will get you meditating daily, it will get you into workshops and retreats, and you'll start to grow and change and evolve as a result. But, ultimately, spiritual awakening requires much more from us. It requires us to let go of the need to feel any particular way. It's not possible to truly awaken, to really go all the way on our path when we're trying to get there just for ourself. And so, in the end it all points us to, how do we awaken to a greater motive for being on the path that's not about us, that's connected to something much greater than our personal happiness.” —Craig HamiltonMany of us begin the spiritual journey with a heartfelt longing—to feel more peaceful, more whole, more connected to something greater. And often, spiritual practice delivers on that promise. It brings relief, insight, and a sense of calm amidst the storms of life.But what if the very practices meant to awaken us are quietly being used to help us avoid the uncomfortable, messy work of transformation? In “Obstacles to Awakening - Part Three” Craig explores the subtle and often unconscious phenomenon known as spiritual bypassing—when we use meditation, teachings, or spiritual states to sidestep pain, unresolved issues, or the real work of growing up.Rather than judging these tendencies, Craig opens up a space of inquiry. What happens when the longing to feel good gives way to something greater—a calling to serve the whole, to be an instrument of awakening in a world that so deeply needs it. And in that moment, our practice takes on a new quality. If you've ever wondered whether your practice is leading you deeper—or just helping you escape—this episode offers a powerful and compassionate lens for reflection.To access the full transcript of this episode and discover more resources, visit the episode page on MeditationChangesEverything.com.

Think positive, hold the frequency, pretend you already have it…And it'll just show up. Right? Not quite. It's time to set the record straight. In this episode, Jessica, Lacy, and Janelle dive into the common misconceptions around manifestation, like Lucky Girl Syndrome, affirmations, and vision boards—and reveal why surface-level tools often leave people stuck, frustrated, and wondering what they're doing wrong in manifestation. You'll hear Janelle's story of hustling to manifest her dream office until she surrendered, unblocked, and received something better than she imagined. Lacy reflects on exploring spiritual techniques for years before creating a method that actually works because it actually changes you. Jessica unpacks how she went from clinging to her dream home vision board to manifesting a deeply aligned space by focusing on how she wanted to feel instead of what it had to look like. The big takeaway? True manifestation requires more than wishful thinking—it requires subconscious rewiring, nervous system healing, and aligned action. And the TBM process (and this episode)  give you the tools to do just that.

In this powerful episode, Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown explore the often-overlooked reality of spiritual bypassing—the tendency to use spirituality to avoid deeper emotional healing. Many seek positivity, affirmations, and spiritual practices as an escape from confronting pain, but true healing requires shadow work.This conversation dives into:

In this week's episode Manpreet speaks to Embodied Mentor and Business Strategist Rachael Morley who has over a decades experience in the spiritual wellness industry and who is shining a light on the darker side of the industry and how we can take personal responsibility for changing it and why so many practioners/coaches/mentors are burnout, sick and not receiving what they need .

190: In dieser Episode sprechen wir über Bali: Warum wir dorthin gezogen sind, warum wir wieder gegangen sind und was diese Insel wirklich ausmacht – mit all ihren Licht- und Schattenseiten. Was erwartet dich in dieser Folge? ✨ Warum sind wir nach Bali gezogen? Wir erzählen dir, warum Bali für uns beide eine besondere Bedeutung hatte und welche persönlichen Geschichten uns auf diese Insel geführt haben. ✨ Was macht Bali so besonders? Bali ist ein spiritueller Hotspot und hat uns beide auf vielen Ebenen geprägt. Die Insel ist intensiv und herausfordernd. Sie holt alles von unten – man ist ständig am Verarbeiten. Für uns war es wie ein Waschgang, der uns immer wieder ins Jetzt zurückholt. ✨ Postcard Bali vs. Real Bali Bali wird oft auf Instagram als tropisches Paradies dargestellt, doch der wahre Alltag ist von Tourismus, Müll, Verkehr und Korruption geprägt. Wir werfen einen Blick hinter die perfekte Kulisse und sprechen über die dunkleren Seiten der Insel. Die spirituelle Szene auf Bali – Was steckt dahinter? Bali zieht spirituelle Suchende an – aber wie viel davon ist wirklich tiefgehend? Wir reden über leere Phrasen wie „Ich bin am Verarbeiten“ und „Ich manifestiere das“ und was hinter Spiritual Bypassing und Eskapismus steckt. Warum sind wir wieder von Bali weggezogen und kann man heute noch auf Bali leben? Warum Bali nicht mehr unser Ort war? Die Expat-Bubble, Korruption, Gier und ein postkoloniales Gefühl haben uns irgendwann dazu gebracht, den Abschied zu wagen. Hat Bali inzwischen durch den Instagram-Hype und die Kommerzialisierung seinen Charme verloren? Freu dich außerdem auf unsere persönlichen Bali Highlights und Lowlights. Lehn dich zurück, schnapp dir dein Lieblingsheißgetränk und etwas Leckeres zum Naschen. Gönn dir eine Auszeit und setz dich mit uns an den virtuellen Kaffeetisch. Enjoy. Hat dir diese Episode gefallen?

Anstatt sich seiner Themen und unangenehmen Fakten zu stellen, flüchtet man sich in spirituelle oder religiöse Praktiken. Probleme werden so nicht gelöst, sondern zum Beispiel durch "Karma" gerechtfertigt oder man sagt sich, dass man "mehr loslassen muss", auch durch toxische Positivität, und schiebt alles Negative einfach in den Hintergrund. In besonders ernsten Fällen landen Leute so auch in Sekten, wo ihnen ein Guru oder Sektenführer bestimmte spirituelle Praktiken vorschreibt, die aber rational gesehen eher weniger helfen. Wenn man zum Beispiel immer wieder in toxischen Beziehungen landet, das aber mit "dem Willen des Universums" erklärt - anstatt eventuell noch verborgene Muster in sich selbst zu erkennen und diese durch eine Psychotherapie aufzudecken, kann keine Besserung erzielt werden. In dieser Folge klären Steffi und Lukas auf, was genau hinter Spiritual Bypassing steckt, in welchen Fällen es auch hilfreiche Seiten haben kann und wie man damit umgeht, wenn man selbst oder eine nahestehende Person betroffen ist.+++ Meine Online-Kurse für ein erfülltes Leben | Stefanie Stahl Akademie | Jetzt entdecken +++ Online-Kurse | Stefanie Stahl Akademie | Jetzt entdecken+++ Zum Podcast gibt es auch einen Blog, auf dem ihr alle Infos und Themen der beliebtesten Folgen jederzeit nachlesen und vertiefen könnt.

People who are ashamed or unhappy with their relationships often come up with creative ways to justify the fact that not only do they stay, but they pour out massive amounts of love, time and money that will likely never be reciprocated. The story they tell themselves is often described as “spiritual bypassing.” It's a way to dress up big mistakes as meaningful accomplishments. In this video, I respond to a letter from a woman who speaks in a glowing way about her role caring for an avoidant man who is drowning in trauma, who, with his kids, has become totally dependent on her.

It's been good to be back these last weeks sharing my thoughts and ideas with you. I hope you've been enjoying the topics I've offered.  Today we're talking about WHEN LOVE & COMPASSION ARE NOT THE ANSWER - SPIRITUAL BYPASSING.  Psychologists say we're drowning in phoney love and compassion as people spiritually bypass rather than be uncomfortable long enough to solve problems. The bypassers then claim moral and spiritual superiority when in fact they might just be cowards without emotional maturity.  As VSF returns to the air with it's over-arching theme of I AM ENOUGH & SO ARE YOU I go back to my roots and discuss the "bees buzzing round in my bonnet."  I'll still have the occasional guest to chat with, but I've shortened the show to 30 minutes or so and I've taken the advice of my wise women friends and have decided to let you hear from me instead of a new author each week. 

This episode is also available on YouTubeMike is joined by Stephanie Brinkerhoff and Kelli Christine for a heartfelt and insightful discussion about their personal journeys out of Mormonism, the healing power of psychedelics, and navigating the complex emotions that come with deconstructing religious belief systems.They explore topics like spiritual bypassing, the importance of embracing grief and anger, and how these raw emotions can lead to deeper self-understanding and growth. The conversation sheds light on the tension between wanting to leave the past behind and the continual process of healing from religious trauma.Key Topics Discussed:Stephanie's and Kelli's individual journeys of leaving Mormonism and how psychedelics helped them through their transitions.The concept of spiritual bypassing and why avoiding difficult emotions can block true healing.The role of anger and grief in personal growth, and how to honor these emotions rather than suppress them.How Mormonism's focus on "happiness" as a measure of success can perpetuate emotional suppression.The importance of internal family systems (IFS) and parts work in healing from religious trauma.Breaking free from external validation and finding an authentic sense of self.Notable Quotes:"I realized I've been giving myself love this whole time—I just thought it was Mormon God." – Stephanie"We have to be in that gestation period, in the cocoon, and trust that process before we can emerge on the other side." – Mike"Our souls want full participation in the human experience, and that includes both pleasure and pain." – KelliRecommended Resources:The Soul's Code by James HillmanPerfect Love, Imperfect Relationships by John Wellwood (coined the term "spiritual bypassing")Francis Weller's teachings on grief and the full spectrum of human experience.Connect with Us: Follow Mormons on Mushrooms for more insights and episodes on spirituality, psychedelics, and life after leaving Mormonism:Instagram: @MormonsOnMushroomsWebsite: MormonsOnMushrooms.comYouTube:  @MormonsOnMushroomsSupport the Show: If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a review and share it with others who may benefit from these conversations!

Spiritual bypassing harms the recipient by minimizing and shaming their pain rather than empathizing and supporting them. Many of these spiritual bypassing examples are also common Bible pat answers heard from church people when you share life problems. You have probably been the recipient of this harmful practice more than you realize, as it happens frequently.  Learn to identify what this is so you will not do it and to recognize when it is being done to you. #dysfunctionalrelationship #spiritualbypassing #toxicrelationship    Website: https://www.changemyrelationship.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChangeMyRelationship YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@changemyrelationship Watch this video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4jmpx8oZIXM

As we journey through Virgo season and prepare to enter Libra season this September, we find ourselves in a space of discernment and refinement. The universe invites us to listen for the calls that echo through our lives this month, so we can learn to respond with clarity, purpose, and virtue. Before diving into the month's major astrology transits, we begin with a deep dive of the Virgo zodiac sign and archetype. We discover why Virgo wants us to master the art of separation and purification. Drawing inspiration from the myth of Echo and Narcissus, we examine what happens when calls go unanswered or are met with misunderstanding, highlighting the importance of self-awareness and self-refinement before engaging with the world. Through this lens, we explore Virgo's role as the cosmic mediator between the self-focused energy of Leo and the relational focus of Libra. Understanding Virgo is a crucial step in our personal and spiritual evolution.Each celestial event this months presents a unique "calling" — a cosmic invitation we're meant to "respond" to with discernment, adaptability, and insight. Important questions, or callings, are being asked of you: What can you purify in your life? How can you prepare yourself to respond to the calls that matter most? And how do you know the difference between the noise of the world and the true calling of your soul?Themes and transits discussed in this episode include:The symbolism of "call and response" as an overall theme for the monthVirgo's crucial role as the sign between Leo and LibraVirgo as the Maiden and the BirdThe myth of Echo & NarcissusThe New Moon in Virgo (Sept. 2)The Full Moon Partial Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (Sept. 17)Mars enters Cancer (Sept. 4)Mercury enters Virgo (Sept. 8)Sun enters Libra - Fall Equinox (Sept. 22)Venus enters Scorpio (Sept. 22)Mercury enters Libra (Sept. 26)Uranus turns Retrograde and Pluto Retrograde re-enters Capricorn (Sept. 1)Mercury follows the Sun's footsteps all month longMercury Cazimi in Libra (Sept. 30)Extra Days of Caution (Sept. 15 and 22)Extra Days of Opportunity (Sept. 3, 11, 14, and 29)******************Resources Mentioned in this Episode:Article: The Myth of Echo & Narcissus Article: Speech Acts******************Podcast & Host Links:Clairannoyance InstagramClairannoyance TikTokClairannoyance WebsiteMegan's InstagramMegan's TikTokMegan's WebsiteRyan's InstagramRyan's TikTokRyan's Website

Kasra Mirzaie is a clinical researcher, psychotherapist, and university teacher. His work focuses on adolescents, exploring the interplay between psychotherapy, spirituality, and self-deception. Can understanding all parts of ourselves sometimes lead us away from the truth? In this episode of "Voices with Vervaeke," John Vervaeke continues to explore Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy with guest Kasra Mirzaie. They discuss the paradox of IFS as both a path to self-discovery and a potential source of self-deception.

Mirzaie shares personal experiences, emphasizing the transformative roles of love and forgiveness in therapy. Vervaeke and Mirzaie also examine the philosophical and cognitive scientific foundations of IFS, setting the stage for future discussions on self-organizing criticality and the relationship between cognitive science and spirituality.

In this episode of “Unpacking Possibility,” Traci Stein interviews Melanie Lown, a mindfulness teacher and advocate, about the utility of mindfulness in living with and thriving despite multiple sclerosis (MS). Melanie shares her personal journey with mindfulness and how it helped her accept her circumstances with kindness and compassion. Melanie emphasizes the importance of being present in the moment and how mindfulness can help individuals with chronic illnesses navigate the sometimes intense and competing emotions that can arise. Melanie also discusses the concepts of toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing, highlighting the need to acknowledge and hold space for uncomfortable feelings while inviting positive and supportive thoughts. She explains how mindfulness can help individuals make lifestyle changes, such as adopting healthier eating habits and engaging in regular exercise, by approaching these changes with curiosity and non-judgment.   For more on Melanie Lown, visit https://www.melanielown.com/ or follow her on Instagram: @melanie_lown   mindfulness, multiple sclerosis, chronic illness, acceptance, compassion, present moment, toxic positivity, spiritual bypassing, lifestyle changes, curiosity, non-judgment   Takeaways   Mindfulness can help individuals with chronic illnesses accept their circumstances with kindness and compassion. Being present in the moment and accepting discomfort can lead to a sense of ease and equanimity. Toxic positivity and spiritual bypassing can hinder the healing process by denying or suppressing uncomfortable feelings. Mindfulness allows individuals to hold space for both discomfort and positive thoughts, fostering a balanced and authentic experience. Approaching lifestyle changes with curiosity and non-judgment can help individuals make sustainable and beneficial choices.   Chapters   00:00 Guest Introduction - Melanie Lown 02:31 Discovering Mindfulness and Accepting Circumstances 20:53 Defining Mindfulness and Managing MS 29:35 Toxic Positivity and Spiritual Bypassing 36:40 Mindfulness and Lifestyle Changes 44:07 Disentangling Pain and Suffering 48:52 Upcoming Engagements and Conclusion

Frank Yang – a formerly extremely (!) abstract fitness influencer whom I've been following for over 10 years – now claims to be enlightened. I challenged him on the podcast and wanted to find out: What's really going on?: After all, Frank was diagnosed with bipolar personality disorder. Together, we delve into the following topics: - Why Frank was known in the past for sex- and masturbation videos on YouTube - What qualifies him today for so-called “Buddha-Enlightenment” - How he's been protecting himself from “Spiritual-Bypassing” with bodybuilding for over 15 years Plus: The role sex, Nofap, and one-night stands play in his life after his enlightenment.

In this episode, we look at why you should listen to South Park's Butters over modern Buddhist gurus. We talk about the sales pitch used by spiritual gurudom to get people hungry for Enlightenment while hiding the truth about the awful reality of that path. Fun fun fun. ____________________

This week on The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast, I was inspired by a facetious conversation inside The Symposium about how you could use tarot as a form of marketing (e.g., Want to go from the Ten of Swords to the Ace of Cups?) I sat on this conversation for a while because it did strike a cord - but I wasn't quite sure how I wanted to explore it. Then it hit me - this felt a lot like spiritual bypassing.  Spiritual bypassing involves using spiritual practices and beliefs to avoid confronting unresolved emotional issues and psychological wounds - it can also feel like toxic positivity. Going from the Ten of Swords to the Ace of Cups without acknowledging everything that happens in between is nothing but a disservice.  Join me as I reflect on this topic and pull cards like the King of Pentacles, Queen of Wands (reversed), The Hanged Man, and The Hermit.  Deck Used: Tarot of the Abyss If you love The Tarot Diagnosis Podcast, please be sure to hit those 5 stars and write us a review on whatever platform you listen to us on.

"Just suck it up and keep it moving." "Just pray more." "There's a Scripture for that." To embrace counsel like this is costly.  We're not designed to ignore our emotions or pretend that we don't have them.  We also can't hope emotions just go away and neglect our insides. Emotions reveal what is happening in our hearts.  They're a gift and were designed to feel and process them, to understand ourselves and God and experience the fullness of life. Bypassing is when we try to avoid or go around something.  You can't get around emotions, but you can become way more sensitive, way more empowered and way more free.   Tune into God's Vibes and learn how to unlock that freedom today!   xo/Juliana   Become a God's Vibes Insider HERE: https://bit.ly/VibesInsider    Enrollment is OPEN for the next round of the SDS Life Coach Certification Program [Program starts 7/8/2024!!].  Learn more and apply HERE: https://julianapage.co/coachingcertification   PROPHETIC TRAINING Unlock the power of prophecy with our Monthly Prophetic Training!

Themes: Healing, Spirituality, Spiritual Bypassing, Shame, Self Empowerment, Shadow Work, Self Growth, Guilt In this solo podcast episode, Empowered Connection podcast host Daniel Cordua rounds out the last month's themes of spirituality, self empowerment, spiritual bypassing, and religious trauma with a talk on the tension between being inherently already whole and taking on a practices to make one whole.There is a sigh of self compassionate relief in the profound spiritual understanding that we don't need to" fix "ourselves, but are already whole.And it begs the classic question: if we are already love and loved, why must we take on paths, ideas, communities, or practices that prove or find that we are?This irony is both beautiful and dangerous.It shows that we are not better or worse than anyone, for we are all equal on a fundamental level of the Self (the beautiful)... yet that same understanding is leveraged by others to have power over others - or us to have shame towards ourselves - by stating you must "earn" that wholeness and equality by being part of a group, guru, or specific path (the dangerous or ugly) and proving your worth.In this episode Daniel explores the beautiful sides of this paradox and the shadow sides, allowing the listener to have more empowered awareness of their own self and their self growth and/or spiritual practices and longings.  *Connect with Daniel for your Free Discovery Session -  for individuals + couples who are ready to explore, illuminate + empower their lives & their relationshipsSUMMER SALE !

Let's start with the masculinity that's in deprivation. This is from Anna. Let's listen to the question right now. "Do you think masculinity is in deprivation in our society of feminism?" Well, the short answer is yes. And I'll tell you why, but before I begin, Mar, you know, you and I were chatting about this before we jumped on, and there's a dark and a light to feminism. Now, you as a woman, right, The majority of our audience is women and also men who are interested in accessing the feminine inside of themselves. That's why we have the upside-down triangle in our company logo so that I can master that myself. From a feminine perspective, what do you think the light and the dark of feminism are in your, in your mental view? So I'm still in the process of figuring out what's the good part and what's the kind of negative feminism. I've never been involved in the feminist movement at all because my opinion is every moment that has gone is not serving its purpose anymore. And that has happened with every big movement, basically. So I do see it in a way that it has brought us some freedom in a sense we're not dependent only on men anymore, which in a sense is good, but in the same sense, we have become the masculine in the world as well, because we get to work every day and we get to earn our own money and take care of children and do everything on our own. And I don't think that's a good thing. We just do way too much. Right. It's beautiful. Look, so it's a great question, Anna, and I'll start by, We'll go into 3 different chunks here. I think any movement when it begins, it does come from a good place, right? And so women's suffrage has been happening for a long time. You know, Eckhart Tolle talked about the pain body of women. And just like a lake, if you were to throw a rock, which could essentially represent the dark side of the patriarchy, which is a real thing. Patriarchy and feminism both have a dark and a light. That rock of the dark side of patriarchy was thrown into the lake. And in some ways, in many ways, the ripple is still being felt by the feminine, by women in the world. So I'm not here to negate the suffrage of women or the pain that women feel. I am here to just bring a different perspective. So with that vantage point, when it started, feminism I believe was about getting women to a place where they feel empowered, where they feel free. Unfortunately, like most movements here in the matrix, that movement was captured early 1900s by the IRS and by top wealthy families in America. And it was a way to get women out of the house and into the workforce for this reason, to double the taxes that were actually collected. And also it sacrifices the family... [14:50] How to Build a Mental Grit What is our next question? We have one from Jackie. She's asking about your advice on building mental grit during these crazy times. "What is a way you can build resilience and grit in these crazy trying times with social media, 24-hour news cycle, etc? How can you build the skills needed to survive your mind during these crazy times? I appreciate your advice and your answer. Thank you." Isn't Jackie asking the quintessential question of our times? In this day and age where we're also quote, hyper-connected on social media, and we have the most perceived that we ever had, I think really what we're talking about here is a pseudo connection where our energy and really our focus is being harvested. I don't know about you, Mar, but I'm very aware of how much I'm on my phone. Do you have a great relationship with your phone or what is that like for you? I wouldn't call it a great relationship. I'm trying to get away from it as much as I can. And every time I'm in a real social situation interaction, I try to never use my phone. It's just, to me, it feels so rude when I'm face-to-face with somebody and they're just on their phone. I can't stand it and that's why I'm not doing that. But yeah, I'm definitely trying to bring the screen time down as much as I can. That's my goal. Yeah, it's well said. Y'all can go on your iPhone, I believe on your Android too. And you can look at your hours. It actually shows you on your phone how many times you pick it up and how much time you're spending on your phone. So if you think you don't have time, I challenge everyone who's here with us to pick up your phone and how much time you're spending on your phone. I remember we had a guest on the show. It was Dr. Kyra Bobinet and she was a neuroscientist. She told me something very, very powerful. She said, look, no matter if you have children or not, even as adults, we're all being trained. We're all being trained on a neurological level to seek comfort and to seek what's called reward circuitry in our limbic system from the phone itself. Another great resource for this is the episode we did with Nir Eyal, where he talked about the variable reward of cell phones. I think, Jackie, what your question really points to is the phone, because the phone and computers and social media, these are the devices and these are the things that are actually down our capacity to have mental grit. Look at our ancestors, right? They saw, and I'm talking like even our grandparents, Mar, they saw maybe 150 to 200 things that were high decision-making things that they needed to make decisions in life. We see 10,000 things or more. So it's like 20 to 100 X times of input that's coming at us all day long. We are human. We are half beast and half spirit. And so I think it's no surprise that all of us are struggling in some way with mental grit. Now, when you say crazy times, a lot of these crazy times are propagated by what we see on social. We've all heard the term doom scrolling, right? It's actually why Mar and myself and our entire team, we design content that can actually go out there and hook people where they are. And that is essentially maybe in the bathroom, going to the bathroom, doom scrolling, or on the trolley or whatever, like just going through your phone, trying to get some kind of a mental reward from just the normalcy of where you are. And I think what we've lost is the ability to just be present in a moment... [24:30] Find The Courage to Grow Let's get to the next question. It's from Joanna. So Joanna is calling out the new age bullshit and she wants to know the difference between forcing versus cultivating courage to accept life's purpose. It's so good. Oh my gosh, how many people can relate to this? Let's hear Joanna. "Hey Josh, my name is Joanna. And my question for you is, I've heard you in the past talk about how in the new age, people say things like, if it doesn't feel good, then don't do it. And I've heard you call BS on that. And I would love if you could elaborate more about that, specifically, like with differentiating between, like, if you're forcing something, and it's, you know, like, to just switch lanes versus like, something is meant for you. But it might just be hard, you know, like how do you differentiate clarity around the path? Because obviously it's going to be hard either way. So it might not feel good either way. I hope that makes sense." It makes perfect sense. So the analogy would be when to grit and when to quit and how to have the emotional mental faculty in order to know when you should be forcing something, which I believe now is never that I'll get into, versus cultivating the courage to accept your life purpose. And this is multi-layered. So let's spend some time on this one because this is a very contextual question. So in the new age, we have these phrases, Mar, like good vibes only. I've even seen T-shirts and sweatshirts. Have you seen these? Good vibes only, or like social memes? Love and light. What does that bring up for you when you see that? Well, I've been through a lot, I know it's not true. It's just one part of it. It's like we live in a dual world and so always the shadow part and we cannot ignore it. If we only focus on the light and the love and the good vibes only, we're missing out on a lot. No doubt. Yeah, and you know what we're missing out on is we're missing out on the human experience of just having a process in general. I'll never, ever, ever forget this. I was at Paleo FX back in the day when Paleo was happening here in Austin, and I was doing a live podcast with Christine Hassler. And she said, never allow yourself to rob someone else of their process. And why that's so important is because when we focus on hyper positivity, or when we focus on good vibes only, or just love and light, we're missing out on a fucking myriad of the human experience that is grief, pain, anger, resentment, betrayal, jealousy. Human emotions are not necessarily good or bad, right? They're just emotions. And so energy in motion is really just a clue as to where the energy is asking to be or where the energy is asking to be channeled. So when I'm feeling angry or upset, that's actually a good thing. It's a good thing because my boundary has been broken in some way, or I'm not being respected in some way, either by myself or my partner or a friend or a colleague.
