Dear Friends,In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, I sit down with Doug Hilton, a counselor with over 30 years of experience supporting clients through trauma, addiction recovery, and couples/family dynamics, and a Certified Universal Healing Tao instructor who has integrated Qigong into his clinical practice for two decades. Doug is also the co-author (with Master Mantak Chia) of The Tao of Addiction and Recovery, a book that reframes addiction through a Taoist lens: not as a moral failure, but as a system-level imbalance—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.Together, we explore:- Why Doug describes addiction as an imbalance in the system, and how that insight emerged through Taoist training in Thailand- What Taoism is (and what it is not): a spiritual system rooted in living in harmony with nature, without dogma or forced belief- How addiction develops through natural human tendencies (adaptation, denial, pain avoidance) that can become exploited over time- The Taoist view of recovery as harmony over willpower, and why inner balance reduces the “need to medicate”- A practical, grounding Qigong entry point: breathing into the lower Dantian (“Where the mind goes, the chi follows”)- The Inner Smile Meditation and the elemental organ system—how sequencing (wood → fire vs. water → fire) supports balance- Doug's work bridging Western therapy and Taoist energetics: EMDR, trauma, and Taoist Emotional Recycling (TER)- A simple guided TER eye-movement practice you can try (when you are not driving) to support emotional clearing- Shame, guilt, relapse, and how restoring flow through the “garden hose” system of energy channels changes recovery outcomes- Why sexuality and sexual energy are often neglected in mainstream recovery—and how Taoist practices help integrate it with care- Doug also shares his personal journey—how Taoism “found him” long before he fully understood it—and why he believes this work matters not only for people facing addiction, but for anyone touched by it.Resources & LinksDoug Hilton: fullcirclehealing.caThailand program: balancerhehab.solutionsBook: The Tao of Addiction and Recovery Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness.

Show Notes: Elijah Siegler recalls the day of graduation on June 5, 1992, and the prominent promotion of the movie Patriot Games, which seemed at the time an ominous omen, as graduates began to navigate their post-grad journey. Elijah shares his advice to his kids and students: "You don't need to have your whole life post-college figured out. You just need one cool thing lined up, and that'll lead to another cool thing." Elijah describes his first post-graduation job as the editor of the Greece and Turkey book for Let's Go travel guides, which he found out about due to a last-minute cancellation. A Ticket to Israel and Traveling Adventures Elijah had previously been a researcher for Let's Go Pacific Northwest in the summer of 1989. After graduation, Elijah moved back to his parents' house in Toronto, Canada, and spent time reading and applying for jobs. Elijah cashed in his graduation gift from his grandparents, a ticket to Israel, and spent six months in the Middle East, including a solo tour of the Mediterranean. Elijah used his own guidebook for the Greece and Turkey parts of his trip and mentions Gary Bass, a classmate who edited Let's Go Israel and Egypt. Exploring the Middle East Elijah enjoyed both Greece and Turkey, finding Turkey to be one of the great travel destinations of the world. He highlights the unique experiences in Istanbul and Cappadocia, including staying in cave hotels and visiting a center for Sufi culture. Elijah reflects on his visit to Syria, noting the cultural richness and the sadness of seeing the country torn apart by civil war. Elijah moved back to Toronto, spent time with family, and eventually found a job in the non-profit sector in New York. Taking a Slow Boat to China Elijah describes his temporary job in New York, living in a basement in Chelsea, and the cultural experience of living in New York City. He recounts his decision to travel to Asia, including a trip to Japan, where he received a telegram about a job in China. Elijah took a slow boat to China from Kobe to Shanghai and then trains to Chengdu, where he taught English for nine months. He shares his experiences in Chengdu, including teaching and traveling around China, and his interest in Taoism. Opening the Door to the World's Parliament of Religions Elijah attended the World's Parliament of Religions in Chicago in the fall of 1993, which marked the 100th anniversary of the original event in 1893. He volunteered at the event, met various religious leaders, and was inspired to study religion academically. Elijah decided to pursue a graduate degree in religious studies, applying to various programs and eventually enrolling at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He describes the rigorous Religious Studies Program at UCSB and his initial research on Taoism in America. A Focus on Taoism Elijah explains the concept of Taoism, the indigenous religion of China, and its focus on the Tao, a non-personal divine force. He discusses the transmission of Taoist ideas to America through popular culture, such as the TV show Kung Fu and the book The Tao of Pooh. Elijah interviewed Chinese Taoist masters who came to America and taught Taoist techniques, such as martial arts and meditation. He completed his PhD on Taoism in America and began his academic career, moving from assistant to associate to full professor. The Americanization of Taoism Elijah contrasts Taoism with Buddhism, noting that Taoism does not have a missionary impulse and is spread indirectly through practices like martial arts. He discusses the Americanization of Taoism and the role of popular culture in shaping American Taoism. Elijah shares his research on the authenticity of Taoist masters in America and the concerns within the American Taoist community about who is a genuine master. He mentions the organizational structure of Taoism in China and the challenges of defining authenticity in American Taoism. Religion and Television Elijah discusses his research on religion and television, contrasting it with the study of religion and film. He argues that television's open narrative format allows for the exploration of religious change over time. Elijah highlights the religious themes in popular TV shows and how they reflect and shape American spirituality. He plans to publish a book on his theory of religion and television combining his previous essays on the topic. A Spiritual Journey Elijah shares his personal spiritual journey, growing up in a secular Jewish household and raising his children as Jewish. He expresses a strong affinity for Taoism but does not call himself a Taoist due to the formal initiation required in Taoist traditions. Elijah teaches a class on spirituality, exploring the rise of "spiritual but not religious" individuals and the history of spirituality in America. He emphasizes the importance of interfaith dialogue and understanding different religious traditions, both in his teaching and in his community involvement. Promoting Interfaith Understanding Elijah describes his involvement in the Charleston Interfaith Council, organizing cultural and educational programming to promote interfaith understanding. He organized a  Jewish Muslim Dinner in 2017, bringing together Jewish and Muslim communities for a shared meal and conversation, which has evolved into the Spirited Brunch, a self-guided tour of different sacred spaces in Charleston with snacks, promoting interfaith dialogue and cultural exchange. He encourages others to replicate these initiatives in their own communities, emphasizing the importance of interfaith connections and understanding. Harvard Reflections Elijah  was in the comparative study of religion that was drawn from other departments in the Divinity School, and he mentions professor Diana Eck, who was the chair of that committee on the comparative study of religion. She started something called the pluralism project in 1991 and that summer, Elijah was in the first cohort of student employees for that so I actually got paid to go to Los Angeles and study religious diversity there and inter religious dialog, and in particular, Buddhism.  Timestamps: 01:30 Initial Career Steps and Travel Experiences  04:06: Exploring Greece, Turkey, and Syria  09:03: Moving to New York and Asia  12:10: Attending the World's Parliament of Religions  15:21: Research on Taoism in America  17:31: Taoism in America and Its Cultural Impact  28:59: Religion and Television 31:49: Personal Spiritual Journey and Teaching  39:29: Interfaith Initiatives in Charleston  Links: Faculty Bio: https://charleston.edu/religious-studies/faculty-staff/siegler-elijah.php Spirited Brunch: https://thefoodsection.com/spirited-brunch-101/ The Musical: https://www.happylandmusical.com/ Featured Nonprofit: The featured nonprofit of this week's is brought to you by Tobey Collins who reports:  "Hi.

Send a textIn this Monday Morning Motivation episode of Small Business Survival Conversations, we explore The Tao of Success — the true path to building a sustainable and resilient small business.But what does “Tao” mean? Simply put, it means “the way.” And the real way to success isn't flashy marketing, overnight growth, or natural talent. It's patience, persistence, and steady improvement.Too many entrepreneurs believe they need to be the smartest, most connected, or most experienced person in the room. The truth? Talent will not replace persistence. Education alone will not guarantee success. What separates thriving small business owners from those who quit is their ability to keep going — calmly, consistently, and strategically — even when results feel slow.In this episode, you'll learn:✔ What “The Tao of Success” really means for entrepreneurs ✔ Why patience is a competitive advantage in business ✔ The difference between persistence and stubbornness ✔ How consistency reshapes your business over time ✔ Three practical action steps you can take this weekIf you're a small business owner feeling stuck in the “messy middle,” this episode will remind you that steady growth beats fast burnout.

You were never on trial — guilt, shame, and self-blame are learned illusions, not truth.In this episode of Tao Dialogues, we explore how to end guilt, shame, and self-blame by recognising a powerful truth: you are not on trial.Many of us replay the past, defending ourselves in an inner emotional courtroom shaped by childhood conditioning and the Inner Child's need to be “right.” But Taoist wisdom and wu wei (effortless effort) remind us that guilt and shame are not facts — they are emotions created from beliefs.Through the lens of Shen (your intrinsic spiritual essence) and the Golden Thread Process, we uncover how to release self-judgment, step out of emotional drama, and return to clarity, compassion, and alignment.This episode is for you if you:Struggle with guilt, regret, or shameReplay past mistakes and self-blameFeel trapped in perfectionism or people-pleasingWant emotional freedom rooted in Taoist wisdomRead the blog post that inspired this episode: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/p/empty-courtroom Our Tao Dialogues are powerful yet gentle teachings about authenticity, spirituality and finding emotional balance and flow in everyday life.

Round Table presents the fifth of six stories from the new podcast, "Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao." In this episode: is true expertise about aligning with hidden rhythms or overpowering difficulty? A famous butcher from Zhuangzi's story inspires Gen Z debaters to rethink whether success comes from harmony with systems or relentless self-strengthening. For more fascinating stories and heated debates, search "Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao."

What is power? In this episode (1-167) of Living the Tao, Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod challenges the modern assumption that power means dominance or control. Instead, he reframes power as something far more fundamental: the ability to make a decision and see it reach fruition. This teaching focuses on the first of the Four Ascendant Spheres — the Social Sphere — the domain of language, persuasion, money, politics, and what classical Daoists referred to as the “red dust.” Why does poetry move people more than reason? Why does external spiritual identity fail to create real transformation? And how does one move from the illusion-dense realm of talk into deeper spiritual development? This is a subscriber-only doctrinal episode. Hear the full teaching on Supercast.  

Round Table presents the fourth of six stories from the new podcast, "Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao." In this episode: when does inspiration become self-betrayal? We explore whether adopting others' methods leads to genuine progress or quietly disconnects us from our own nature.

Er is een groep vrouwen die het hele daten en relatie met mannen heeft opgegeven. Mannen zijn te emotioneel onvolwassen, gevaarlijk, irritant en gewoon een last. Waarom zou je het als vrouw nog überhaupt proberen? Heterofatalisme wordt dat genoemd. Maar dat geeft een groot probleem voor mannen, bovenop het feit dat mannen achterlopen op best wat vlakken. Hoe dat zit, waarom dat gebeurt, waar de maatschappij zich bewust van zou moeten zijn en wat in hemelsnaam Gooners zijn, daar hebben psychologen Thijs Launspach en Lennard Toma het over in deze aflevering.Bronnen:- Wu, Y., Wang, L., Tao, M., Cao, H., Yuan, H., Ye, M., ... & Zhu, C.

Round Table presents the third of six stories from the new podcast, "Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao." In this episode: is true freedom found outside fame and office? Zhuangzi refuses political power, raising a timeless question about success. One side defends spiritual independence. The other argues real influence requires stepping into the system. For more fascinating stories and heated debates, search "Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao."

Can we reject the Tao and still have morality? Does affirming the Tao stifle moral progress? Is arguing for the Tao a religious or even a Christian argument? We dive in to these questions and more as we wrap up Chapter 2 of "The Abolition of Man".[Show Notes]

Listen to the rest of this premium episode by subscribing at patreon.com/knowyourenemy.This episode is about Shattered Glass, the 2003 movie portraying former New Republic writer Stephen Glass's fall from the heights of magazine journalism after he was exposed as a serial fabulist who routinely made up quotes, sources, key details, and more in his stories. We've both loved this movie for years, and thought discussing it would serve as a companion of sorts to our interview with Jason Zengerle about Tucker Carlson—and, of course, as a chance for us to geek out about it. After describing the basics of the plot and introducing the main characters, we explore the history of the New Republic under its then-owner and editor in chief Marty Peretz; its string of young, Harvard educated editors during the Peretz Era, who often had short, turbulent stints in that role; fact-checking and the mythos of objective journalism; the relationship between elite magazine writing and celebrity culture during "the end of history"; and more.Sources:Shattered Glass (2003)Buzz Bissinger, "Shattered Glass," Vanity Fair, Sept 1998Howard Kurtz, "Stranger Than Fiction: The Cautionary Tale of Magazine Writer Stephen Glass," Washington Post, May 12, 1998Jonathan Last, "Stopping Stephen Glass," Weekly Standard, Oct 30, 2003Pete Croatto, "Why ‘Shattered Glass' Endures," Poynter, Jan 24, 2024Martin Peretz, The Controversialist: Arguments with Everyone, Left Right and Center (2023)Benjamin Wallace-Wells, "Peretz in Exile," New York, Dec 23, 2010John Cook, "Why Won't Anyone Tell You That Marty Peretz Is Gay?"

Round Table presents the first of six stories from the new podcast, Sage and Youth: Debating Zhuangzi's Tao. Two thousand years ago, Zhuangzi questioned reality itself. Who was he? A mystic. A rebel. A quiet comedian of philosophy. In this opening episode, Niu Honglin sits down with Professor Hong Li to explore freedom, uncertainty, and the playful wisdom of the ancient sage.

The Tao of Dealing with Conflict by Ordinary Mind Zen School

Javier Peke Rodriguez and Peacewarts Moves to Weekly In this transition episode, Avis shares a heartfelt appreciation for the music that sets the tone for our study of peace and announces an intentional shift in the rhythm of the Peacewarts curriculum. The Music of the Lab Avis shares a bit about Javier "Peke" Rodriguez, the acclaimed Spanish composer and pianist whose atmospheric and therapeutic soundscapes provide the backdrop of the Peace is Here episodes.  A New Pacing: Peacewarts is moving to weekly. After a month of daily episodes, the material of Peacewarts 101 is calling for more breathing room. To allow scholars more time to soak up the concepts and to allow Avis time for new writing projects—including the completion of Bullet Poof (Book 7 in the Pedro series) and continued work on The Peace Experiments book series—Peacewarts is moving to a weekly Monday release schedule. This new pace means our curriculum will now extend through September 2027, giving us a longer, more sustainable horizon for our study. The Roadmap Ahead For new scholars joining us, the weekly pace makes catching up more attainable. You can find Peacewarts orientation in Episode 198 and the fictional festival in Episode 199. Universal Understars: We mapped the invisible infrastructure of a world without war. Living Roots: We explored peace as something biological and rooted in the soil. Chronicled Courage (Starting Monday): We begin recovering the nearly erased stories of refusal—moments when war was cued up, but someone chose differently. Future Departments: Resonant Charms: Language without coercion. Social Chemistry: The biology of de-escalation. Morphological Peace: Redesigning broken systems. Ethical Defense: Navigating propaganda without cynicism. Kinetic Peace: Empathy in motion. The Peace Stick Avis reflects on the Tao and the nature of opposites. If peace and its opposite are on either side of the same stick, our goal is to float that stick to a part of the river where the "opposite" of peace is merely a frustrated day—kicking a stone down the road—rather than the violence of war.

In this expansive and deeply illuminating episode of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast, Michelle is joined by San Qing, a Daoist priest, teacher of internal alchemy, and lifelong explorer of consciousness, healing, and human potential. San shares his extraordinary origin story, including a near-death experience as a child, spontaneous clairvoyant and healing abilities, and his eventual ordination in Daoist lineages in China. Together, Michelle and San dive into the nature of reality, the illusion of identification with the material world, and how true healing occurs when we access the stillness beneath thought, diagnosis, and fear. This conversation bridges ancient Daoist wisdom with modern conversations around quantum healing, consciousness, and fertility. It explores how attachment to labels, timelines, and medical predictions can keep the body stuck, and how returning to the "void," the place of non-identity and stillness, allows the body and spirit to reorganise into harmony. This episode is a powerful invitation to remember that healing is not something we force, but something we allow when we reconnect with our deeper intelligence. Key Takeaways: Healing begins beyond the physical body, in consciousness and energy Identifying too strongly with diagnoses can limit what the body is capable of Stillness and non-attachment create space for transformation The body must be able to hold the energetic charge of healing Ancient Daoist teachings offer a roadmap for embodied, sustainable healing Guest Bio:  Taoist Master San Qing is a profound healer. When he talks, there is something else that goes on in the room. The room is filled with light and love.

Gianluca MagiFranco Battiato"Ultimo sogno"Piano B Edizioniwww.pianobedizioni.comGianluca Magi, amico e compagno di studi del grande cantautore catanese Franco Battiato, dedica la sua ultima opera ai momenti finali che ebbe modo di trascorrere con lui. In "Ultimo sogno", infatti, Magi rievoca il sogno, commovente e perturbante, che Battiato gli rivelò quasi sul finire della vita. Libro gemello de "Lo stato intermedio", giunto ormai alla quarta ristampa, "Ultimo sogno" esplora e approfondisce il tema della morte - l'ultimo grande tabù rimasto nella società postmoderna occidentale –, della trasformazione e della trascendenza: temi che hanno segnato, allo stesso modo, tutta la produzione musicale di Battiato.Gianluca Magi è uno storico delle idee e delle religioni, filosofo e orientalista. È stato docente all'Università di Urbino di materie legate alle filosofie, psicologie e religioni tra Oriente e Occidente. Ha fondato a Pesaro “Incognita”, laboratorio transdisciplinare che dirige con Franco Battiato.Come autore, ha pubblicato I 36 stratagemmi (BUR), I 64 Enigmi (Sperling & Kupfer), Il Gioco dell'Eroe (Punto d'Incontro).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Are good and evil moral absolutes — or are they something else entirely? In this episode (1-165) of Living the Tao, Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod presents the Daoist view of good, evil, and neutrality as energetic positions, not moral judgments. Rather than focusing on right and wrong, Daoism examines how actions affect energy, probability, and personal power. This conversation explores why Daoism was never designed as a social or moral control system, how karma functions energetically rather than morally, and why neutrality may offer the greatest potential for influence and change. Topics include: The Daoist rejection of moral hierarchy Why judgment creates false polarities How karma actually works in classical Daoism Why destruction releases energy faster than creation The role of neutrality in spiritual cultivation How Qi Gong relates to energy outside moral frameworks This episode is ideal for listeners interested in Taoism, spirituality, philosophy, and anyone questioning traditional good-versus-evil thinking. In this episode (1-160), Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod explains why positivity is not about denying reality or forcing optimism. Instead, it's about where you place your attention, how you process experience, and how much failure you can tolerate without giving up. Topics include: Why negativity often feels justified—but limits your life The difference between motivation and long-term damage How childhood conditioning shapes what you focus on The Taoist idea of fail tolerance and endurance Why most people set goals that guarantee failure A practical, no-nonsense discussion of positivity as a trainable skill, not a personality trait.  

What is the Daoist concept of wu-wei? Is wu-wei similar to any concepts from Western philosophy? In this episode, Danny and Randy discuss the Daoist concept of wu-wei or effortless action.Thanks to listener Jon B. for suggesting this topic! Subscribe to ESP's YouTube Channel! Thanks for listening!  Do you have a question you want answered in a future episode?

Zorlukların ve tetiklenmelerin bilinçlenme için bir araç olabileceği, zihni zorla susturmak yerine tanıklık gücünü geliştirmek gerektiği vurgulanıyor. Ego ile mücadele etmeyi bırakıp uyanık bir dikkatle mevcut olmanın, insanın derinleşmesini ve yaşamla daha yaratıcı bir ilişki kurmasını mümkün kıldığı anlatılıyor.

Procrastination isn't laziness — it's a signal calling you back to stillness, clarity, and aligned action.In this episode of Tao Dialogues, we explore the stillness before action — a Taoist approach to ending procrastination and perfectionism without force, pressure, or self-criticism.Rather than pushing yourself forward, this teaching invites you inward — to the sacred pause where Shen (inner wisdom and clarity) aligns and true action is born. We uncover how procrastination often arises from the Inner Child's need for safety, not a lack of discipline, and how wu wei (effortless effort) restores natural momentum.You'll learn how to:Stop fighting procrastination and listen to its messageRelease perfectionism without lowering your standardsUse stillness as preparation, not avoidanceTake aligned action that flows from truth, not fearRead the blog post that inspired this episode: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/p/shifting-the-storyOur Tao Dialogues are powerful yet gentle teachings about authenticity, spirituality and finding emotional balance and flow in everyday life.

Many cultures have a tradition of the vision quest. In Taoism, a related practice is known as Biguan. In this short episode of Living the Tao, Master Steenrod explains Biguan as a retreat from the social mind—the accumulated pressure of identity, expectations, and unconscious influence often described metaphorically as “red dust.” This is not an extreme or monastic practice. Biguan, especially for lay practitioners, is about withdrawing from influence without abandoning life. Even small, intentional separations can restore clarity and help us choose what we bring back into daily living. A concise reflection on identity, clarity, and returning to the world with awareness.  

Welcome to Manga Monday! This week we're diving into Gokurakugai, Yuto Sano's morally murky supernatural thriller about the ultimate odd couple: Alma, a perpetually hungry teen with demon blood, and Tao, his soft-spoken but trigger-happy partner. They run a "troubleshooter agency" hunting magas—humans-turned-demons—but here's the kicker: when your targets were once human, where's the line between justice and murder? Armed with weapons forged from Alma's own blood, our duo navigates a world where monsters and victims look suspiciously alike. It's demon-slaying with a conscience, and it hits different.Please be sure to rate, review, like and subscribe to MTH as well as all the other podcasts you consume, it takes no time, costs you no money and means the world to us podcasters and content creators.

In this trailer for Living the Tao (1-163), Taoist Master Mikel Steenrod introduces a subscriber-only episode on lay talismanic practice—what it is, why it exists in Taoism, and where its real limits are. Talismans were never meant as superstition or shortcuts. They developed as practical tools for people who do not possess the energetic capacity to act directly on reality, and who are not part of priestly or sectarian systems. In this episode, Steenrod explains how lay talismanic work fits within Taoist tradition, why a dedicated altar matters, how invocation binds energy, and what can responsibly be done at the folk level. No secret registers. No initiations. No fantasy explanations. The full episode, Making Talismans for the Lay Person, is available exclusively to subscribers.  Subscribe now at  https://living-the-tao.supercast.com

This week on The Normal Nerds Podcast, we run the ultimate Weekly Anime Recap, breaking down 9 major anime episodes in one packed episode — covering action, lore, animation quality, power systems, character arcs, and some absolutely wild storytelling choices across the current anime season.We kick things off with Jujutsu Kaisen Season 3 Episode 3, diving into the Culling Game rules, Tengen's role, Kenjaku's plan, and why this episode sparked backlash online despite being crucial to the story. Is JJK being unfairly criticized — or is the pacing actually an issue?From there, we explore the return of Frieren: Beyond Journey's End Season 2, breaking down why this series continues to deliver emotional storytelling, elite animation, and worldbuilding that few modern anime can touch.But this episode goes far beyond just two shows.We also review and react to:Hell's Paradise Season 2 and its brutal fights, Tao mechanics, and character consequencesFire Force Season 3 Part 2, including frustrations with animation quality and Adolla's expanding influenceFate/strange Fake, with insane fights, Holy Grail War chaos, and Fate lore at full throttleMy Hero Academia: Vigilantes, spotlighting quirk evolution, underground hero politics, and All Might's presenceAlong the way, we debate:Which anime are peaking right nowWhich shows are quietly slippingHow animation quality affects storytellingWhy some fandoms turn on episodes that focus on lore instead of fightsIf you're watching seasonal anime, catching weekly episodes, or deciding what's actually worth your time, this episode is a full-season checkpoint with honest takes, deep dives, and zero filter.Support the show
