Jun 19, 2020 #SRFConvocation #Yogananda #YogaMeditationSRF/YSS President Brother Chidananda shares how the comprehensive science of Kriya Yoga—which includes the specific technique of Kriya Yoga as well as the other meditation techniques taught by Paramahansa Yogananda—works in a systemic way to “reverse the searchlights of the senses” away from matter so that we can discover the bliss of the Divine within ourselves. As Brother Chidananda states in his talk, “An understanding of the basic principles of this comprehensive science helps a great deal in the practice of not just the Kriya technique proper, but also the Energization Exercises, the Hong-Sau Technique of Concentration, and the Aum Technique of Meditation, all of which are part of this interrelated science of yoga meditation.” #Yogananda explains that “the little searchlights of our mind's attention and of the five senses ordinarily are focused on imperfect matter….Man's attachment to matter keeps the soul confined to the bodily prison and prevents it from finding freedom with God in the realm of eternal bliss. The ego attempts to satisfy through material channels the soul's constant, insatiable longing for God.” This talk was recorded at the 2016 SRF World Convocation in Los Angeles, a year before Brother Chidananda became the fifth president of Self-Realization Fellowship, the organization establised by Paramahansa Yogananda in 1920 to disseminate his teachings on #KriyaYogaMeditation worldwide. Brother Chidananda points out that progress on the spiritual path begins from the very moment we start to feel what Paramahansa Yogananda described as “the soul's constant, insatiable longing for God.” Brother Chidananda illustrates the incredible power of the science of Kriya Yoga for mastering the ego-principle, which allows us to realize the innate Joy of the soul—even in this modern age.

He has taught workshops on the benefits of the conscience, meditation and Yoga Science at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center and more.  Topics Discussed: What, exactly, is the conscience? Why is it so hard to follow its advice? Where does the conscience get its wisdom? What are the “Four Functions of the Mind?” Where does this framework come from? Do you have to believe in God to trust your conscience? What is the law of karma, and why are thoughts so important to it? You say there are only two kinds of thoughts – can you describe them? Does the conscience really always know the difference? What kinds of problems can be solved by relying on the conscience? Can you give us an easy example of an experiment we can try? How about an experiment that might be a little more challenging? What does one-pointed attention mean? Isn't it exhausting to rely on the conscience all the time? But what would you tell someone who wants to let loose and have fun? What does “ahimsa” mean? What is the Bridge of Yoga? Why should people listen to what you are saying? How does meditation fit into all of this? How can people learn more about your teaching? Links: Leonard's Facebook Leonard's LinkedIn Leonard's YouTube

In this episode, we explore what it means to forgive, what happens when we learn to forgive and how we can experience self-liberation through the act of forgiveness. Read more on the digital sanctuary Subscribe to weekly newsletter Connect with Sandy on Instagram  

https://americanmeditation.org/your-conscience/ Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges By Leonard Perlmutter An Elegant, Simple & Life-Changing Guide to Putting Your Conscience in the Driver's Seat We as human beings choose what to say and how to act every day. We barrel ahead on a path that is easy and pleasurable. We try to avoid pain, and we seek immediate results and gratification-even though some part of our mind is throwing up red flags as we make our choices. Those red flags (and the green ones too) come from our Conscience, which inevitably proves to be right. Oftentimes, we are not aware of the gentle nudge, or even the clear warning from the quiet voice of the Conscience because we are simply not tuned in. As a result, life becomes filled with misery and suffering, financial struggles, illness, depression, overall dissatisfaction, addiction, destructive habits and behaviors, distrust of everything and broken relationships. But now, a brilliant book by Leonard Perlmutter shows you how to give your Conscience control in your life so that all of your decisions support and guide you to act for your highest good, leading to a life of joy, love, peace and both personal and professional success. Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges shows you how to listen for the innate Universal wisdom that is available to you in every moment of your life, and how to curb your tendency to ignore or overrule it. At this moment in our nation's history, given the pain caused by a global pandemic, a reckoning on race, and a more divisive political climate than ever before, our Conscience can help us turn this ship around, one heart and mind at a time. Perlmutter is the internationally renowned meditation teacher (also known as Ram Lev), founder of the revered American Meditation Institute, author of the bestselling The Heart and Science of Yoga, and originator of National Conscience Month. Using proven tools drawn from the 5,000-year-old Yoga Science playbook and adapted for the Western mind, he has created a plan that crisply, simply and elegantly puts the power back into your hands-when you adhere to your Conscience. Perlmutter shows how the body is powered by the Four Functions of the Mind, and it is guided by your Super Conscious Wisdom, directly connected to an infinite source of knowledge and wisdom. He first explains the role of these functions (Unconscious, Senses/Logic, Ego and the Conscience) and how they influence us, then demonstrates how you can train yourself to focus, honor and act on the Conscience, which is the ultimate decision maker! He illustrates that when the Ego, Senses, or Unconscious habits are in charge, it distorts our perception and therefore, we are put at risk of making a decision from erroneous input. Perlmutter refers to the Conscience by its traditional Yoga terminology, the Buddhi, and notes that "when regularly exercised, the Conscience/Buddhi becomes sharp and clear like a brilliant mirror" which, of course, makes it easier to reflect our inner wisdom and guide our actions. He also introduces the concept of the two types of thoughts that precede any action-the preya (anything that leads to short-term ego or sense gratification, but conflicts with our inner intuitive wisdom and leads to pain or dis-ease) and the shreya (which is always in harmony with the inner wisdom, and leads to positive, constructive action in service to self and the world.) He shows you how to be guided and directed by shreya to hone your path to a life free of painful inner and outer conflict. Filled with valuable experiments to begin building step-by-step the habit of letting your Conscience be your guide in every circumstance and relationship, Your Conscience is a cheerleader for your success.

Read Leonard Perlmutter's book, https://americanmeditation.org/your-conscience/ (Your Conscience). IN THIS PODCAST:Meditation to unlock your mind True willpower The ego Your conscience Meditation to unlock your mindMeditation helps a person to become detached. What that means is by meditating regularly, every day, we learn how to create a space between stimulus and response. In that space between stimulus and response, we find the freedom of action so that we can redirect our attention towards the conscious to determine the true thought to think, word to speak, and action to take. (Leonard Perlmutter)By becoming detached, a person is no longer bound to their emotions and their immediate reactions. Through detachment, people can pause and observe something that happens around them instead of immediately reacting. Meditation teaches detachment, and detachment enables pause, and pause allows people to sit in their peace and decide from a place of stability and calmness, instead of mindlessness and fear-based reactions. True willpowerFrom taking intentional action from the pause, people can direct their energy and focus on the things that they can see genuinely do matter. Therefore, they can practice true willpower, because they can recognize the wise and unwise decisions and are willing to wait or work to make the best and truest decision happen in reality. The more that I do these types of experiments and follow the wisdom of the conscious; I am continuously building the muscles of willpower to do what is to be done when it is to be done, and not do what is not to be done when it is not to be done. (Leonard Perlmutter)The training of meditation can, therefore, be used in every aspect of daily life. The teachings of meditation can be superimposed in many ways, and we can rely on these teachings when making any decision. The egoThe ego is hardwired to the reptilian brain, and the reptilian brain is totally invested in self-preservation, as is the ego … it means that both the ego and the reptilian brain are terribly fearful of annihilation … from the yoga-science perspective, death is merely change and growth. (Leonard Perlmutter)The ego has a limited perspective and so it cannot perceive anything other than what is known to be good. It wants to remain with what it knows, because it fears change, even if what it knows is overly difficult or painful. The ego is often in wrong, but it never doubts. It defines every relationship or life event as either pleasant or unpleasant, and it only wants to serve the pleasant, therefore opposing everything

The American Meditation Institute (AMI) announces that the third annual National Conscience Month will be observed January 2022 with the goal of encouraging individuals across the nation to practice consciously using their Conscience as their guide. Since 1996, AMI has provided comprehensive training in the world's oldest holistic mind/body medicine centered around one revolutionary principle: the human Conscience is the key to unlock limitless wisdom and creativity to solve all of life's challenges. This month-long observance is an auspicious time to raise awareness about the value of using the Conscience as an inspired guide to making better lifestyle choices. In his new book, YOUR CONSCIENCE, National Conscience Month originator Leonard Perlmutter clearly explains how the mind can be trained to harmoniously and rewardingly reduce inner mental conflict, which in effect, will ameliorate external conflict. Always emphasizing a scientific approach, Perlmutter never asks people to blindly believe him, but rather to experiment with time-tested practices. In today's world people often move quickly and react automatically––rather than making discerning choices. Currently there are few coordinated opportunities to teach people how to evaluate options or to use their Conscience as a guide. Because of this, people suffer personally and as a culture from ills like addictions, gun violence, political upheaval, chronic and debilitating health conditions, suicide, racism, bigotry, stress, and depression––to name just a few. According to Perlmutter, “Today's problems were born in the human mind, and their solutions can only be found in the human mind. When we allow the mind's Conscience to connect us to the Source of our creativity, we will discover unimaginable answers that will transform our world.” National Conscience Month's (January 2022) campaign will: Remind, educate and raise awareness about the value of using your Conscience as a guide to making better decisions. Build and activate a national movement that embraces the role of conscience-driven choices in experiencing more health, happiness, security, and creating more rewarding lives for our families, communities and nation. Encourage individual actions through simple experiments that aid in increasing positivity, self-confidence, and self-reliance. Offer an opportunity for citizens to work in partnership with governments, school systems, faith leaders, non-profits, community organizations and corporations across the United States. More resources and information about National Conscience Month are available at ConscienceMonth.org. Perlmutter's book, YOUR CONSCIENCE, is available at all fine booksellers nationwide including Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

We hold so much wisdom inside ourselves, but because we've been trained to prioritize our egoic senses, much of that wisdom never manages to come to the surface.    How can we push past the noise of what our ego is telling us, so we can put more emphasis on what our conscience has to say? Is it possible for our unconscious mind and our conscience to work together in tandem?   In this episode, Founder of The American Meditation Institute, Leonard Perlmutter shares how to tap into our conscience, so we can unlock a greater sense of health, happiness and fulfilment.    Three Curiosity-Driven Takeaways    The importance of striking a balance How can we achieve mental flexibility, so we know when to listen to our conscience, and when our egoic senses are working in our favor?    Why we need to create a ‘business plan' for our lives We pour so much of our time into planning our careers; why shouldn't we do the same for the other areas of our lives?     How to prioritize conscience in a culture personified by consumption It's impossible to live without some ‘stuff', but how much of that is really necessary, and how much of it is keeping us from tapping into our inner happiness?   Guest Bio-    Leonard Perlmutter is the Founder and Director of The American Meditation Institute. Author of The Heart and Science of Yoga®: AMI's Empowering Self-Care Program for a Happy, Healthy, Joyful Life, Leonard has an extensive background in meditation and is passionate about teaching others about the impact it makes on people's lives.

If someone came and told us there is a war for power and survival inside our minds, that we all have superconscious wisdom, that is, in a certain way, kept hostage and censured by stronger, or louder rather, parts of our brain, we will probably not believe it. However, that is what our guest, Leonard Perlmutter, came to tell us today, and he said something even more interesting, that he would prefer we won't believe anything he said and go to find out by ourselves if it is true.Leonard is the Founder and Director of The American Meditation Institute (AMI). He is the author of several books, including "Transformation", "The heart and science of Yoga", and his latest "Your Conscience. The key to unlock limitless wisdom and creativity and solve all life's challenges", which we talk about today. Leonard has studied Yoga Science since 1975 and is a direct disciple of mind/body medicine pioneer Swami Rama of the Himalayas.In this episode, Leonard described how our mind works with astonishing simplicity. He explained how we make the decisions that impact our lives and decide our fate and what we can do to have more control over it. We talked about the four voices in our mind, the louder and pushy ones, how they operate, and why it is so hard to ignore them. Leonard also taught simple yet effective techniques to incorporate meditation into our lives and much more.Tune in to Episode 114 to explore how our mind operates, and discover who we listen to when we make our choices.Some Questions I Ask:Can you tell us a bit about your journey to get to be you at this point in your life? (3:36)Can you tell us some of the principles behind your book and why the conscience is this thing that can do all these great things for us? (9:13)Can you talk to us about that part of the conscious mind that's sceptical? Can you tell us about the concrete scientific basis behind it? (18:36)In This Episode, You Will Learn:Be prepared.

In today's episode, I am opening up to the first of Spiritual Authors coming on the show to offer us new perspectives on spirituality for where we are right now in humanity. These past two pandemic years has created lots of shifts and changes and fear. And as we talked about last week... fear can be very destructive, and it's a pervasive problem we all face. We have some great guests coming on.. some new and some returning with new work. Today, I speak with Leonard  Perlmutter also known as Ram Lev who appeared on the show back in 2017 with his book, the Heart and Science of Yoga -Empowering Self Care for a happy, healthy joyful life. Today he shares with us his newest work, You Conscience: Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve all of Life's Challenges. We talk about what conscience means, the 4 levels of the mind, including the conscious level.. the ego.. the senses, the unconscious  and then how the super conscience comes in .. the importance of training the mind and how to sit in meditation. Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges shows you how to listen for the innate Universal wisdom that is available to you in every moment of your life, and how to curb your tendency to ignore or overrule it. At this moment in our nation's history, given the pain caused by a global pandemic, a reckoning on race, and a more divisive political climate than ever before, your Conscience can help turn this ship around, one heart and mind at a time. Leonard Perlmutter is the internationally renowned meditation teacher (also known as Ram Lev), founder of the revered American Meditation Institute, author of the bestselling The Heart and Science of Yoga, and originator of National Conscience Month. Using proven tools drawn from the 5,000-year-old Yoga Science playbook and adapted for the Western mind, he has created a plan that crisply, simply and elegantly puts the power back into your hands-when you adhere to your Conscience. Perlmutter shows how the body is powered by the Four Functions of the Mind, and it is guided by your Super Conscious Wisdom, directly connected to an infinite source of knowledge and wisdom. He first explains the role of these functions (Unconscious, Senses/Logic, Ego and the Conscience) and how they influence us, then demonstrates how you can train yourself to focus, honor and act on the Conscience, which is the ultimate decision maker! He illustrates that when the Ego, Senses, or Unconscious habits are in charge, it distorts our perception and therefore, we are put at risk of making a decision from erroneous input. Filled with valuable experiments to begin building step-by-step the habit of letting your Conscience be your guide in every circumstance and relationship, Your Conscience is a cheerleader for your success. https://americanmeditation.org/product-tag/leonard-perlmutter/ https://www.facebook.com/AmericanMeditationInstitute https://www.linkedin.com/in/leonard-perlmutter-ram-lev/ Quiet that mind to work in harmony and bring in the guidance. Our job is to train the ego mind to work so that the conscience can receive the wisdom All it takes is a desire.  Desire is the fuel for action. Start with 1 minute of mediation and build it each day, Don't let the ego fool you. Pain is an opportunity to recalculate and make those shifts and changes. The mind.. the conscience.. is a science. Notice what you notice. Be curious. Have a desire to make a shift and it will come. Thanks again for listening.

As we dig into topics that are too risky for the morning show, as we strive to help you understand what's really going on in your.There was nothing on the table and we've got a lot to talk about. So let's dive right into this episode. De'Vannon: Sandy bow is the house of the prosperous podcast. And she is the founder of the prosperous school of self-realization. Sandy is a meditation teacher and she's a student of yoga science itself. And she both studied and taught at the American meditation Institute. This episode is really cool and fantastic because for the first time I get to talk to somebody who used to be on food stamps like me.And, uh, she's really, really turned her life around [00:01:00] and she's very, very mind focused, meditation, focus, consciousness, focus. And the beautiful thing is that her life's mission is to lead and guide other people to their own level of centeredness and a balance. And I've really enjoyed this episode and I hope you do.Miss Sandy Vogue, thank you so much for coming on my show. And yeah, I wanted to start with a corny Ryan because I can do shit like that and get away with it. Sandy: Well, this is kind of funny. When I was in college, I used to have this name called the bow show and, you know, people would tell me, you know, you should have a reality TV show and just call it the bow show.So I De'Vannon: will watch that shit girl. There you go. No, I'm super duper excited to have you [00:02:00] on today because we're going to be doing a lot of spiritual talk with also very grounded and, um, right off the bat. I want you to. Highlight and you kind of break down the resource. That is your website, because on there you tell us about your retreat, your prosperous school, you have prosperous the podcasts, you know, it was like, oh my gosh, that reminds me of, I'm a nerd out for just a second here.I'm a nerd out, but you know, there's star wars and they're Spaceballs, which if you're a nineties kid and you know, then the Spaceballs, the movies, baseball's like, I dunno the Yoda doll that like one point in it. Nevermind, go ahead.Sandy: I feel you though. I feel you. Um, so yeah, my, my website is Sandy bow.com. That's S a N D Y V as in victory, o.com. And you can find. Every everything that we talk about today on the podcast, you can find it in that website. [00:03:00] There's a link to a free meditation that you can download. And what it does is it rewires your unconscious mind while you're sleeping with the vibrational therapy music that my fiance created, it's really wonderful.And there is also links to my podcast, which you can listen right on the website as well. It's a very meditative, it's a great way to recalibrate your energy. There are short 15 to 25 minute bite pieces that are very potent, and it helps you to just tune into yourself when you feel like there has been way too much going on in the outside world.And if you would like to take things to the next level, I do a lot of things free at service, and I also help people at the next level with prosperous the school self-realization. So if you're ready to go there. That's a 90 day program that you can join. It's holistic. It teaches you everything from your environment and recalibrating your environment, setting that up in a way that attunes to your unique energy [00:04:00] type.And it also teaches you the five element, breath, work and meditation as well. So that's the prosperous school. And if you want to go to a retreat in person, if you're down for that, we have in-person retreat opportunities as well. So you would sign up on the wait list for that. So lots of things you'll find on there.De'Vannon: Okay. Okay. So that's, that's a bad ass and bitching. So with the, uh, with the prosperous school, the 90 day program, is there any one-on-one interaction with you with that, or is that mainly the. Sandy: Yeah, there's one-on-one interaction with that. So what I've done with prosperous, because I know that what happens is when you want to make a change in your life, you might be so motivated.You might go and sign up for that gym membership, but just because you signed up for it doesn't mean that you're actually going to go. But when you are, when you know that you're going to meet up with a mentor or a guide or somebody who is going to train you, support you along the way, there is more, uh, chances that are likely that you're going to actually [00:05:00] show up and do the work.So that was one thing that was a non-negotiable for me. I wanted it to have live elements, and I wanted people to feel like there was somebody that was invested in them and their journey and not just plunged them into a bunch of video lessons and not. Kind of guide them along the way. So we do see each other twice a month and it's in a small group, so there's small groups of four that she will be in.And, uh, that's where you get your questions answered. You get some live mentorship and you get to, uh, ask about some of the things that you've integrated, some of the practices. So, you know, if you've had a really, if you have a very stressful job and you also have kids at the same time and you don't know how to manage it all, or you're going through a relationship breakup and you have specific questions around, how do I apply this breathing technique in my life right now?So I can have more energy or how do I balance out my masculine and feminine side so I can feel more centered and grounded. Um, we have tools to, to [00:06:00] kind of help you and guide you along the way. Okay. De'Vannon: Thank you for sharing that. And now what we're going to do is explain to people where you're coming from and how you got to a point where you're in a position to.Be giving somebody else advice on things like that. And you, you know, we've heard it, you know, all before folks, you know, when somebody has gone through something, then they're better equipped to help you along your journey as well. I was reading up on you and my research in you. You wrote that you, at one point in your life, you looked up to the sky and you, and you said, God, why me?Why me? And so I want you, I want to know what was happening in your life, because I know that that pain and whatever went through it. At some point, you also said that you heard from the divine saying that, you know, you had a greater purpose. And so your purpose was birthed out of this darkness. And I, I wanna know what that darkness was.Sandy: Yeah, yeah. [00:07:00] For me and for a lot of people, the purpose that you have in your life, isn't something that you just wake up one day and you know, what your purpose is. There's a whole journey that, that you kind of go through to get there. And for me, that journey started from a place of deep, deep depression.I at when I was 15 years old, my parents got divorced and this completely rocked my world because my mom and my dad and the family that I grew up in was just full of so much love. And I had a very close relationship with my father. Uh, he would be like the guy that would, you know, we would talk about life wisdom, uh, universe, God, that would be my dad.And so, you know, one day, because my mom was a gamble, Hollick she? She, my, my parents are entrepreneurs. They would put so much time and effort and energy into building businesses, [00:08:00] make all this money. And then my mom would gamble and it got their relationship into a really bad place. And eventually my dad cheated and he just.One day got up and he loved, literally just disappeared, left. And, um, it rocked my world because I felt like we had everything, you know, even though my parents were immigrants from Vietnam, even though I was first generation I'm first-generation, I could go back and I could say compared to other people, there was a lot of things that I didn't have, but I never viewed my life as that way.I always felt very grateful and joyful, and I'm very appreciative of what my parents did for me. And I never felt like I lacked anything. Uh, anything that we wanted, my parents were able to offer to us. And so when you have this, this foundation from this family, that just feels so strong and you feel so supported in your life to suddenly, [00:09:00] boom, everything's just breaks apart.There's a sense of. Responsibility and weight that you start to carry on your shoulder and your chest that you feel like somehow it was your fault or somehow something that you did. And I thought, I think a lot of kids, you know, nowadays they go through this and a lot of adults, especially adults that I work with as well, eventually get to this place where they work so hard, they make all this money and they don't realize that the reason why they're working so hard to a point of burnout and disease and illness is because they're trying to run away from these, these core wounds and trauma that developed when they were younger, like parents getting divorced.So that was a, one of the, the most difficult times in my life that led to a complete depression. Where things really started to get worse for me was when I lost my cousin to leukemia. And then I remember just feeling the entire weight of the world on my shoulders. I was when I looked up at the [00:10:00]sky and I asked God, why me, why am I going through all of this right now?Are you even real? If you are real, then why am I suffering so much? And, um, it was, then it was really that question. It was almost like I had this, that question led me to experience God more directly, you know, and, and it was through that whole journey, um, through pain, through thinking that the suicide would really be my, my last option.My only way of escape did I get. Catapulted back into reality into life. And I realized that there was a greater purpose for me than just death alone. It was death that taught me that life is so much greater and there was so much more to offer. And it was through that journey that I realized that, you know, the pain that I felt was because my mind did a really great job of suppressing.A lot of things that happen when I was younger, that I didn't even know how. [00:11:00]De'Vannon: Well, I'm so sorry, all that happened to you, Sandy, but I'm so glad that you're here to day and, uh, the share and to be transparent because that's what helps you maintain the victory and helps other people get the victory in. So, um, so yeah, my dad cheated too.He cheated twice. Uh, you know, once, once when my mom was pregnant with me, as my grandmother was telling me, and she spilled all the families, he wasn't trying to, you know, she didn't keep secrets. She told me all about all the bullshit. And then second when, uh, we, we were, I was in the eighth grade and, um, it was, it was a hot mess and any, and he ended up in like a mental hospital for three days and all of that.And then, you know, it was chaotic, you know, and that's when my grades is to go down in the fall and everything like that. And, you know, and I thought maybe I just, you know, it was less intelligent than I had been previously. And it took him until many years later until I was associated the trauma of the adultery to affecting me in school.Because, like you [00:12:00] said, the reliance, the structure, the stability, you know, what's gone in. So, um, you know, and then at one point you had said that, excuse me, that you were on food stamps. I experienced this when I was homeless. And then when I was trying to rebuild my life back up, that's when I was on them as well in, um, I want you to just talk a little bit about that because I want you to help people.Some people feel like, oh my God, you know, it was government assistance. I'll never do that. You know, that's just those ratchet as welfare Queens, you know, and everything like that. But I don't view it that way. I feel like, you know, you paid taxes. Okay. If it stamps. So like with the drawing on your investment, you know, if it's, if it's at a time in your life where you need to go through it and you know, there's a lot of pride mixed in when people are like, they don't want to take help, you know?And that's how we get into even more trouble, no matter what form that comes in, you know, if you [00:13:00] ain't got no food, then bitch go get the stamps. You know, if you can, it's better than starving. Are you doing what I used to do and go sell drugs or are prostitutes yourself or whatever the case may be. And so I don't feel like there's any shame to it, but I feel like it centers around an ego, like in a bad, bad way of dealing with ego and everything like that.So what's your take on it. Sandy: Yeah. You know, um, for me, that was when I was living with my mom, after my father had left and, and beforehand, I know my father was the kind of guy that just always worked hard to provide everything. And he never wanted us to be on food stamps. But when my dad left and we were left fending for ourselves, um, my mom was a single mother of three and she wasn't able to provide for all of us in that way.And that's when we started, we got into a place where we needed to have food stamps and that's what really helped us get by during those times. I mean, we were living in a [00:14:00] small, tiny little five. 600 square foot apartment, uh, two small bathrooms and, uh, two small bedrooms. And my mom and my brother shared one room and my sister and I shared the other room.And if I wanted any break or freedom or if I would just want it to cry, you know, the only place that I had to do that was in the shower when I didn't, you know, I'm when I could mask things and I could just be to myself. And so it was really rough during those times. And we needed to accept that type of support because even with me working and my mom working, it wasn't enough to provide for my younger siblings to go from a place of owning your own business, to now having nothing and having to start over in a completely.States than you've ever been. And so, you know, I think when it comes down to food stamps and governmental support, it's really situational and it depends on where you're at in your life. And, and if that support is, is [00:15:00] open for you and it's something that you need, then I think part of the work is actually accepting the help, but not relying on it.So when we finally got to a place where, you know, I was working a lot more and my mom was better, you know, working more, she was a little bit more established than we were able to get off of the food stamps. But I think it's really just about learning how to receive help when you have it understanding that it's temporary and it's only a season in your life and that if you can do it right, that season will support you in moving forward.So when I look back, I'm grateful, you know, I, I was embarrassed. I was embarrassed that I was on food stamps. Like I didn't want to tell anybody. That's the kind of situation that we were in. However, looking back, I'm so grateful and I'm appreciative that we were able to have that kind of support when we needed it.And it, it motivated me, you know, to, to, um, transform those times into something that was greater. And that's why, you know, you can go [00:16:00] from food stamps to creating a full life of freedom. So when I look at my life today, my mom is with a man that she absolutely loves. I have a great relationship with my father.My brother works for a really great company. My sister is an established travel nurse, and I have an established business and career doing what I love and fulfilling my purpose. So I wouldn't have ever known that this was how things played out 10, 12 years later. But because I trusted the process and I found ways to be grateful, I feel like that's, what's led me to be.De'Vannon: I thank you for sharing that. I echo everything you said. Um, it reminds me of a song on one of Dave causes album, and Dave causes a famous saxophone player in the, in the league, like Kenny G and everything like that. And I know you got a voice on you girl, because I heard she was singing, oh, one of your shows.And we will be doing that song later on in the [00:17:00] podcast to lean on me. And, uh, but this way, this right here, which you just reminded me about that song and she, and she says in there, as long as you are breathing, you can start all over again. If your heart's beating, you can start all over again. So she goes, as long as you, well, Barry, then you can start all over again.If your heart's beating, you can start. Although the, this is all very Swaby with fact the phones and shit and everything like that, but it's super encouraging. And that's the point? The thing that you said is just temporary and you see, like, when I was, when I got HIV and everything, I didn't understand that, that it was just temporary.I figured that that was the end. And then that would be the end of me. And that was the only option that I had seen. It was all about. It's all about perspective and point of view. And so what we believe is our [00:18:00] reality. And so have you, had I looked at it as just temporary. I probably wouldn't have, I quit my job and just thought I was going to die in a few months.And so perspective is everything. Take us into what, you know, unity conscious. This is, you know, that seems to be a big theme of your work. So can you please break that down for us, Ms. Sandy? Sandy: Yeah, of course. And I love the song that you just introduced me to. You're going to have to send me the link afterwards, and that was a really beautiful job seeing in yourself.So De'Vannon: thank you. All of that. I'm going to send you to, and people, all of that will be in the show notes, all the music we seeing the day and everything like that. And I'll be sure to get, uh, information for your, um, your fiance for his music. Cause it sounded like you were talking about buying Euro beats a little bit to me earlier, when you were saying, um, the music helps you when you sleep.And I think that that's a super. Cool thing. And so I'm gonna make a note to [00:19:00] get some information. So I could include that information in the show notes too. Sandy: Of course. Yeah. Yeah. So unity consciousness. So oftentimes as human beings, we like to corporate mentalize things. That's what our brain and our ego does.You know, when I am talking to you, I am a meditation teacher. When I am with my mom, I am a daughter. When I'm at work, I'm at work. I was completely different personality. Or when I am, um, when I am working in a school environment, uh, my, my energy shifts, my personality shifts, we carpet mental lies, things.This is me in this role, when I'm doing this, this is me in this role when I'm doing this. So that's what our brain does. And in order to protect us in order to, um, help us navigate in a working society, And this, the brain works in the same way. When it tries to think about its its past and, and traumas that we've experienced in our lives.We, we, the [00:20:00] brain, what it does really well is it protects us and it blocks us from remembering certain things that are really harmful to where we're at in the time. So remember I talked about part of my journey was when I started to look at some of the things that I've been running away from, I started to recall things that I didn't even know happened to me when I was younger.And one of those things was I got sexually molested by my step-grandfather when I was eight years old. And I finally recalled. At a time when I was ready for it, but I, I, my brain had done a really great job of suppressing that to such a degree that I didn't even remember that it happened to me. I just remembered that when I'm around him, he makes me really uncomfortable.Right. And so what unity consciousness is, is instead of looking at our minds, just from a past point of view or an unconscious point of view, or from a future point of view, it takes all of your, um, the division and the separation that's going [00:21:00] on in your mind. And it brings it into unity. It, it takes you into unity and that's one level of it.The other level that is unity consciousness is about uniting with your inner wisdom and uniting with the divine. So if we look into Jesus, Jesus says, I am, my father are. When Jesus said I and my father are one. He is talking about unity consciousness. He is talking about, I am one with the divine. I am one with the father.It's the same thing with us when we learn how to unite our. The things that we think about, the words that we speak, the actions that we take when we learn to unite that with our inner wisdom and with the divine will, and not just the human will, then now we're operating from a place of unity consciousness.We are not divided. We do not. We do not feel that we are separate from our higher self, right. Which is also the self that is in tuned [00:22:00] to God. And so that's what unity consciousness is. And when we can begin to harmonize all areas of our thoughts, our mind, our life into the present moment, right now we are experiencing unity consciousness, which is why it feels so good when you are so present with something.You know, for example, when you are. Interviewing someone on a podcast and you're really tuned into the conversation. You're riding the wave and you're having a great time. You forget that all this time is passing by when you're painting, when you're singing, when you're just getting lost in the music.You're so present in that moment that you forget about the past and all the things that happen to you, you forget about the future and all the things that you have to do. And your entire being is immersed in this moment right now, that is unity consciousness. Does that make sense, De'Vannon: crystal clear since Monday ear and you know, I've.You know, I looked, I've looked at other people [00:23:00] and I've struck strive. Oh, you know, to understand, you know, it's like how you're saying, like the person might be one person at work, one person at home, one person in the city, one person in the field. You know, I think there is a difference in between being able to mentally shift gears, to accomplish the task, as opposed to assuming of what almost looks like a completely different persona to do it.And as a lot of times I feel like, well, I totally feel like that. That's a lot of why people are unhappy in life is because they're not really being their truest form or truest self a hundred percent of the time or in living up in what you would call a unity consciousness. And I think some people feel like that that's just what they have to do.And so in order to get by, or in order to live in order to make it, you know, which is a big reason why, and then never made it in corporate America. And why, you know, I have a podcast, you know, in a kinky lingerie store, you know, that I run online, down [00:24:00] under a peril was because I wasn't willing to do what I saw, what I felt like I said, other people doing, or then they would say, well, you know, you just have to like play this role while you're here at work today.And, you know, you know, go home and then you can really be yourself. And I was like, no, fuck you, motherfucker. I want to be myself right now. And so I'm going to unbutton my shirt. I'm going to let these tits out and everything like that. And they just didn't want me to do that in the office. Some reason.And so, you know, I've been fired before and stuff like that, and I'm not suggesting people go around flashing their kids and none of that. And, um, but it's about a yacht, very much knew who I was and the sort of person that I was. And I wasn't willing to change that no matter where I was. And I feel like society expects us to, to change how we are in certain places to fit certain roles.And so I'm more for unity consciousness personally. Sandy: Yeah, and you bring up such a great point in sharing that. And this is what I call the fragmented self it's. When we feel like we need to break ourselves up [00:25:00] into little bits and pieces and, and personalities in order to fit into a certain box or a certain category.I think that this is one of the reasons why mental illness and mental health is on such a scale of depletion in our society, because we are, we, we live in a society that promotes this, that, that promotes the fragment itself, where, you know, if you walk into this space, this is how you have to be, this is the code of conduct.And while yes, I see that being very beneficial to a corporate structure. The reason why a lot of corporate structures are crumbling right now is because that type of. Way of being is not sustainable when you can't fully be yourself, when you can't fully express yourself in any type of environment and you have to conform to something that isn't you, that is not sustainable.And eventually the, or you feel sick, you feel mentally sick because you're not [00:26:00] allowing that energy to be expressed. And the environment and the, the health of the company is also sick as well. There is dis-ease in the process so we can look at it at an energetic level. We are all energetic beings, right?We learned this in, in physics class. When, when we learned from Albert Einstein, that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed. So if everything in this world is energy. If I am energy, if this phone is energy, if this, you know, this book is energy, then what that means is that energy is constantly in motion.We learned this in school, right? Energy is constantly in motion. We learned this about the laws of kinetics. Everything's constantly moving. And so if we are. Suppressing our energy and we are not allowing it. We're not giving it a place to go. We're not expressing it. And we are suppressing it. We are doubting ourselves.We are dimming our light. We change who we are when we're around certain people. This eventually. [00:27:00] Stagnant energy. And when you have enough stagnant energy inside of yourself, it starts to manifest or materialize. So what happens to your body? You start getting, um, certain tangles or blocks in the body. So you might have some digestive issues.You might have some thyroid issues, uh, because you're not speaking your truth and you have a lot of energy that's stored in your throat. You might end up having a lot of weight being on your body because you are literally carrying so much weight because you're not expressing that energy. So this is true, even at an energetic level.When you live a fragmented version of yourself, it will manifest into some type of disease. And that's why so many people are unhappy. But when you learn to just be bold, being brave, um, trailblaze, a new path for yourself like you did, then you're going to feel a lot more express. And even if the world around you does not like you for that.Does not respect you for that, then it doesn't [00:28:00] matter because your health, your sanity, who you are, you're still living in integrity to that. So for me, you know, I might teach meditation, I might talk a little more properly. I might stay away from cursing and all that stuff, but I fully respect and honor people for whoever it is that they are.And people feel comfortable with me, even if they're the complete opposite of what I do or how I am, because it's so important. We are all unique expressions of the divine. We are all unique expressions of the divine. So how you express the divine is one way and whatever way it feels good to you and how I express the divine is one way and whatever it feels good to me, it's also, you know, decisions that you choose to make your life experiences are completely different than mine.And so what I choose to do with my life is going to look completely different than yours. And so when you have unity consciousness and when you respect yourself and when you learn how to live in your fullest expression, you're creating this ripple effect because you're making space for everyone else [00:29:00] around you to do the same.And now, you know, you might not agree with the people around you, but you're going to respect them. And when you have respect, you have love. De'Vannon: Yeah. That's what happened, trying to, um, tell the evangelicals for awhile on my show, but I'm not, I won't go down that rabbit hole just at this particular moment in time.But, but, um, but yeah, love, you know, self love is absolutely. Is absolutely, you know, Cintas central to everything. Um, and you know, having served in the military thing. Let me tell you, I understand that like the catastrophe that on that day, just the fallout, when you have a bunch of people who are not able to be themselves, because from the day you enter into the military is all about rewriting.Whoever it is you thought you are so that you can be whoever they want you to be in it. And then that's expected to be maintained. I [00:30:00] only did six years because as I got older in the military, I went when I was 17. I don't know that I necessarily recommend that. Um, by the time I was 22, I was like, this ain't going to work.You know, I'm just getting wild and Walter and they want me to be Tamer and hammer. I got in trouble. I got article 15, which is not a good thing. That's like big trouble in the military. I'm going to get kicked out a few times. So I was like, let me go. But a lot of people don't go and, you know, everybody, you know, so it's common knowledge that military veteran the people in the military, you know, poor mental health prevails, lot of suicide and stuff like that.And it's because of what you just said, that people are not free to be themselves. And, um, and it is not sustainable. And unfortunately, a lot of it, you know, a lot of it does end in death. Um, so let's oh, and then, um, I, I knew you were a, a, a good sweet a girl when I first met you. And I know you just said that you, you don't [00:31:00] prefer to cuss or anything like that, whereas this Vich here does.And the reason why I do is because no, and I don't know if you, I don't know if you've seen that documentary on Netflix, the history of swear words that Nicholas cage, I think it's still on there. Nicholas cage has only like. Um, episodes, it was kind of like a mini docu-series thing and they talk about all the most popular swear words and everything like that.And they go through the history and everything like that. And Nicholas cage is the narrator of it. Like he physically hosts it and it's, it is so fucking cool. And so that I respect your open-mindedness because I agree that brief too. Like I have people on my show all the time that I don't necessarily agree with, you know, like, um, like I believe for instance, like in Jesus Christ and the Trinity, but I'd have someone on here who worships the devil.If I feel like it could be like good, you know, good, good for the audience to get the contrast and point of views. I don't care. I mean, hell the person who worshiped [00:32:00] the devil is probably less likely to come to come against, come for me, you know, for being LGBT then like, you know, a conservative Christian person.So they're probably like a better friend to me. And so, um, But I like to, I like to use swear words because I, as I learned in this fabulous documentary, you know, it helps you to relieve stress and things like that. It's something that works for me, then work for everybody. But also since I am so approached Jesus, I like to divide a line in between myself and whatever the typical Christian is supposed to be.You know, you can still cuss and have a perfectly fine relationship with God. And I think it makes me look more reachable. More human and more down to earth, you know, and stuff like that. And sometimes a bitch just needs to, because the fuck out it's been them with, but they haven't done that.And be like, the bitch had calming the bitch had to me. And so I think if I was hanging out with you and somebody made you angry and you didn't [00:33:00] want to cuss them out, you could just have me on the shoulder and be like, Dee, I need you to handle it. And I'll be like, she can't say it, but God dammit. Yeah, I Sandy: love that.I love that. Well, you know, I think that's what I feel like. That's what intimidates people about me though, when they get into any type of a confrontation with me is that I'm so calm that it just it's like intimidates them because that's not what they're used to getting. They're used to getting something that's completely the opposite, but I love what you're saying about, about cursing.And this is not to say that I never curse. I mean, I'm human and I have my moments too, and I have some, I, I'm not, I'm not against it at all. Um, and, and, you know, I just try not to as much, but, but I definitely have my moments. And in those moments you can feel that release. And so again, it comes down to how energy is expressed through you, right?So like, if it feels good for you to say, fuck, you know, because it's just like, Ooh, like it's like a breath of exhalation and, [00:34:00] and fresh air. Right. Then that's what serves you. And that's why so much of what I teach is about what feels right to you and what is your core value and whatever it is that you need again, because your upbringing was different.Do it, I would say self care is being self-aware, you know, so I, I attract all different types of people and students, and I love that level of diversity because we learn so much through contrast and polarization. De'Vannon: Um, you had me at polarization, you know, I love, I love fucking shit off. I really, really do, because as you, as you, um, as we're going to talk about later, you said chaos, you know, basically creates creativity, you know, and, and good things come from, uh, the bad, you know, as you have done yourself, you know, oh my God.When you were talking about your story earlier about the cramp living space that you had, that. Reflected mine. And, um, [00:35:00] they'll know that I've, you know, that's not something I hear often, but, you know, we had like, basically we called it the front room, the back room. It was five of us, one bathroom and one little bitty kitchen.There was no dining table. It was maybe, I don't know, five or six feet by five or six feet. And that's, that's where the box with the fire in it, that we cooked food overmy brother and my brother and I. I'm gonna say this, and we're going to switch to switch gears to your blog. My brother and I slept on button beds that were adjacent and touch my parents' bed. And we always shared the room with them. And then my other sibling slept in like the front room on the couch. So that was their bedroom.So, Sandy: yeah, but that was my bedroom at one point too. Cause I just didn't, I didn't want to share with my sister. And so when I just wanted a little space, I would just go and sleep in the living room. That was my bedroom De'Vannon: and get here. We are people. So even if you come from poverty, you can still be all right.Um, so I think you have a really kick [00:36:00] ass blog on your website and I love blogging and I love blogging. I love reading blogs because it's like an expos a into your mind and then what you think, you know, and everything like that. And um, so everybody do go check out her blog, that her website, which will be in the show notes.And one that stood out to me, you said a new way to view. And you touched on this earlier, talking about how people run. Like we have trauma that happens in life and then we're still running from it. It has the road process. Uh, you say time of the thief, when you say it's a common thing that people have heard.And so there seems to be a correlation between us really trying to get away from past trauma, but it ends up getting us moving super, super fast and it eats up our time. So I want you to talk about that and then tell us how we can, um, as you say, you know, basically like slow down time. Sandy: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that, and that I'm going to read the [00:37:00] quote from, from that, um, blog that you, that you read in a new way to view time.Uh, Time is of the essence. If you desire more of it, let time take time. And the way that I thought to write that blog was because I hear so many people say things, no matter how old they are too. I hear people. And I have students who are in their fifties and their sixties. And they say that they don't feel like they have enough time to do the things that they want to be doing.They feel like they're running out of time because they're getting older. And then I talked to a young 20 something year old that just graduated from college she's feels the same exact way. So it doesn't matter how old you are. There's this interesting, um, paradigm in our society where we think that we think that we don't have enough time.And the common saying is that time is a fif, it never gets. And, and so I believe that that [00:38:00] is something that we've been conditioned to believe by our society. And when we feel like we don't have enough time, what do we do? We rush, we rushed to get to some place somewhere, something, and look at the way that we live.You know, we, we wake up by an alarm clock is that alarm clock tells us where we need to be and what we need to do versus listening to our own body is and asking your body, well, what time do you actually want to wake up? Even when we go to school, we're rushing to get to school before the bell rings, or when you're going to work, you're rushing to get to a certain deadline.And then before we know it, we actually. Validate that time is a thief because we look back on our lives and we're like, wait a second. Where did all this time go? And what I found when I started practicing meditation and I started to diligently tune into my own body and my own mind and what it was trying to teach me, I put away the alarm clock.So I stopped using alarm clocks. I started to experiment with, [00:39:00] okay, let me just, not even put an alarm clock on. Let me just tell my body, Hey, wake up at this time before I go to bed and let's see what it actually does. Let me just show my body, demonstrates my body that I trusted. So I did that and you know, I, I was waking up at 5:00 AM in the morning at that time.And I woke up at like 4 52. You know, eight minutes before the alarm clock rang. And I was like, huh, this is really interesting. So I started to experiment with more things. I started telling my body different things, and I noticed that, uh, slowly, slowly, I started to shed the 60 pounds that I put on my body after I had completed competed in a bodybuilding competition.And so what meditation, what it really helps me to do was it really helps me to expand the moment that I had instead of me thinking about, you know, something that was happening in the past and trying to run away from that or projecting something that was happening in the future. And trying to one towards that, I learned how to be so much more present that the time that I was in had [00:40:00]stretch and expanded, and that moment I was able to actually Marvel in and my life just felt so much more enriched because of it.And every experience that I have feels more enriching, every interaction that I have with people, it feels more enriching. And so, you know, on my blog, The new way that I was suggesting to BW time is that time is just an illusion. Time is a function so that we learn how to communicate in our society, but it doesn't define how we live our lives.And if we can just stop measuring our life by what we're achieving in a week or a day, and spend more time being present and paying attention to what's unfolding in front of you, learning how to sink into your body and asking your body, what do you want? What do you feel right now? How does this feel to you right now?When someone says this to you, how does it feel in your body? What is it like to actually tune into your breath and breathe [00:41:00] a little bit more deeper when you shift all of that, your whole perspective on time completely shifts. And that's what my students who go to my retreat. They tell me, they're like, I don't know if I've been gone for a hundred years or if I've been gone for.You know, five days because their relationship with time has completely changed. They feel like they have so much time back that they're more energized to do the goals that they actually have instead of feeling defeated that they're running out. De'Vannon: It's true. What you're saying about like time and relative to like, like your awareness of yourself.I was at a, um, like at a binaral beats. Music event at a unity church and a unity church. It's a very like metaphysical part of church. You know, they, they believe in like the Trinity, but you'll hear like them say like, you know, refer to God as her, you know, and then they'll tie like metaphysics in and teachings from any religion, [00:42:00] you know, as long as it makes sense yet, they they're pretty much centered on Jesus, but they're not like Christian by any means like that they're much nicer.And, um, so that was a bit, it's a new way. They were hosting, um, way not but much nicer than the fake Christians, not the real ones. And so, um, they were hosting like a binary. Thing. And the people had like all these crazy long light horns and things like that. And it was like a, like a meditation thing. And girl, we thought me and my friend friends echo the same thing we thought maybe we had been in there for 20 minutes.And we like, kind of like, we're in like some sort of state other than fully conscious, but I don't, I wouldn't say we were asleep we're in something else. And it had been like two hours and we thought only like maybe 15, 20 minutes had passed, you know? And so I agree with what you're saying. Like, it's something about like in, you know, like how you write in your blog, like slowing down, being present, controlling your breathing, you know, it makes you have, you know, like, you know, like more [00:43:00] time within time, you know, in, and things like that.But for people to slow down and be present in the moment, you know, as a, is a, is a, is a challenge, you know, and stuff like that. So you, um, you actually. Wrote, um, in there in your, in your, in your sight, through, as I was reading through about like a one minute meditation. And, um, I think that that's, I'm going to ask you to explain it because I think that that is, um, for people who may be like looking at it, like, gosh, I have so much going on.How on earth could I possibly slowed down? You know, this is beyond me. I think most of us could probably find 60 seconds. And I think that that could be a good springboard, you know, to help people feel like a lot of what we're talking about is actually very much in graphs. So how could one, you know, do a one minute meditation.Sandy: Yeah, well, [00:44:00] let's do it together right now. Um, so it's very, very simple. This is the thing that, you know, people will just over-complicate and then you, when you overcomplicate something, you're not going to do it. And so it's really about teaching your mind. This is simple. This is easy. This is a no brainer.So I teach meditation and a three-step process. The first thing you do is you sit in a comfortable meditation posture. So if you're sitting right now, you sit at the edge of your chair with your feet, shoulder width, apart planted, firmly on the ground, or you can also sit cross-legged as well. It depends on whatever you're more comfortable with, and then you establish a finger lock.So you're just taking your, um, And your index finger touching it and then letting it rest on your thighs. And then what we do is we just take a moment to be present with the body. So we scan the body. This is our way of telling the body. I acknowledge you. I acknowledge all that you do for me. And we look at the body, observe the body from [00:45:00] the feet, and we observe it all the way up just as if you're scanning something with your own eyes, from your feet, past your knees, pass your diaphragm area, your heart, your throat, all the way up.And as we observe it going back down, you're just going to relax the muscles around your eyes, relax the muscles around your jaw. Allow your shoulders to fall back a little bit and allow your entire body to be in a relaxed mode. Because when you relax is when you receive the most. And now I want you to bring your awareness, bring your attention to your.Area right underneath your nose in between your lip and notice how your breath is going in and out in that area. Feel it as you inhale, and then as you exhaleand [00:46:00] now for the next 30 seconds, focus on the inhalation and exhalation underneath your nose, taking in deep inhalations and then exhale releasing once again, inhaleand exhale,inhalingand excellent.And then whenever you're ready, open your eyes. De'Vannon: Wow. You have a perfect voice for this. And I've been in a lot of meditations, but I've never heard anybody focus attention to the, to the part of your body where your breath coming out of your nose actually hits. I think that it's so clever and I really, really commend you for [00:47:00]coming up with that.And, um, thank you for sharing that one minute meditation. I feel. Already. And, um, the speaking of that soothing voice of yours, like when I was listening to your podcast of prosperous podcasts, the way you, the way you, I mean, sound on it from like a moment you, you, you start talking, is it like a, you know, a Yogi, like, you've been like a meditation girl for like, you know, many, many lifetimes, you know, whatever it is that, that, that, that, that you've done to bring you to this point.I really, really, um, take my hat off to you. And so, um, then I mean, many lifetimes, just like jokingly, I'm not actually like a reincarnation buffer or anything like that. So Sandy: I've met myself in a past life. De'Vannon: Oh, my gosh, like, oh, I could, I could, um, I'm a chemo, I'm a stay on focus. But like, yeah. [00:48:00] I wonder about that sometimes.Like when I see people who I look like me and I notice like different things like that. And then, I don't know. I heard somebody say one time that they believe that maybe people are reincarnated enough times that maybe because God is trying to give them a chance to get it right. And then who knows, maybe, maybe they might maybe not so much.It's like in Mulana where you're going to be reincarnated as a sting Ray or whatever her grandmother wants to come back, you know, maybe reincarnation as a person versus like a dragon fly. You know, I don't know. I'm not gonna knock any school of thought. Cause I, you know, I haven't, you know, been, you know, You know, they had enough to experience with what actually is on the other side.You know, I did have like an experience, you know, when I woke up, when I was younger, like dying, and if like I was losing my breath, I think it was like a heart rhythm thing. And then I just did fall. I did think that I was in a it's, like I [00:49:00] was looking down a tunnel it and I saw one person who I knew was dead already.But, you know, as this was happening, it was like, I was trying to catch my breath and it was going away from me no matter what I tried, I was like a teenager in high school or in middle school. And, um, but I happened, you know, I woke up the next. You know, but you know, there are stories about kids who like just randomly dying, they're sleeping and stuff like that.But, um, anyway, so, um, so on your podcast, which is a huge meditative journey, as I would describe it in a super helpful, and it's right on brand with the way that you have everything else going, I think it's a great outreach that you have so much stuff going on. You have a podcast at the retreat, the blog in and of itself, you know, in an, in a great website, that's very interactive and people can go there and really understand who you are, you know, and things like that.And so it's a beautiful, beautiful website. And, um, your, one of your most recent podcasts that stood out to me was uncalled chaos in the [00:50:00] creativity. And that one was important to me because in it, you know, you're talking about the COVID pandemic times that we live in and how trouble has become just kind of like, kinda like the norm is kind of what we do.And I don't think that this can be overstated. And so I wanted to spend some time. Talking about what you mean when you say chaos into creativity. Sandy: Yeah. You know, I, I, I can say that. I think for everybody we've all behind the scenes, behind the screens of social media podcasting, and it doesn't matter what role you play in the world or how perfect your life looks out there.Everybody the past couple of years has gone through some form of chaos. And if you tune into the outside worlds, that's really all that you see. There's constant things on the media, on the news that, um, inject fear into our minds that make us run all over the place like scattered ants. And it, they, it also makes us feel more divided and separated now more than ever.[00:51:00]And what I was saying is that, um, we think that. When we're experiencing chaos in our lives, that it's a bad thing. Right. But what I'm saying is that no, no, all this chaos that you see in the outside world right now, and all the chaos that you're feeling inside your body and your mind is an opportunity to restructure, not just what is going on within you, but what's going on within society and change what things look like moving forward for future generations.Chaos creates order and chaos creates clarity and chaos can be transmuted into creativity. I can't imagine. What life would look like for me, if I just had to be born and I would just ride this moose, like rode the smooth wave all the way to the end of the finish line until I die. I cannot imagine what life will look like in that way.And I don't want it to look that way. I asked for the [00:52:00] unknown. I asked to be guided. I asked to surrender. I asked for things to happen in my life so that I can learn so that I can heat the lessons and apply them and evolve my mind and evolve my consciousness into higher states so that I could be an instrument of love and peace and joy in the world.And so if you feel like my life is so chaotic, I feel like once I take care of one thing, something else happens or there's so much drama that's going on in my life right now. Use it as an opportunity to see your life almost as a movie. And that's what I like to think of things like my life is like a movie and I'm watching it on a screen and I can change the relationship that I'm having with my life right now.If I pay attention to the movie that I'm playing inside of my head, because at the end of the day, what you see in your outer world is simply a reflection of what's going on in your own mind. So if I can see that there's chaos in my outer world, there's probably a lot of chaos in my inner world. That's desiring to be [00:53:00] turned into creativity.So remember what we said earlier is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transformed. So I can take this chaos that's going on in my mind right now, where my thoughts are all over the place. It's almost like I'm in traffic and there is nobody there to direct the traffic to go. And so there's a traffic jam, so I can take this chaos right now and I can really transform it into a beautiful picture.So what am I going to do with all this energy? Chaos is simply energy. That's waiting to be transformed. So if you got chaos going on, how can you take it and turn it into something? So for example, Podcasts are amazing. And I bet you feel this way too Divan and where sometimes it's like, okay, I feel like I've got a lot of heat right now.And I got some things to say, and I'm going to tone on that mic. And I'm going to say what I got to say, right? And that's your, that's your channel? That's your way of expressing? Or maybe you just want to pick up the phone and just start, you know, just start person like doing whatever makes you feel good [00:54:00] for some people it's singing for some people it's playing sports.For some people it's going for a walk outside, it just gets to be simple. And, uh, I think that we need to learn how to do that is actually transformed the chaos that we're experiencing. And that way you'll realize that what you created is a piece of art with your life. And now you're watching a movie that you were the director in, not anybody else.De'Vannon: Right. And so this, this reminds me of. Well, let me clarify, let's say so. So y'all saying, he's not saying like, you know, fall in love with chaos or anything like that, or to get like a used to it, but she's saying, you know, since it's there and it's around us so much, what can we, what good can we get to come out of it?You know, it's about a shifting perspective. [00:55:00] Um, you know, not why has this happened to me, but maybe why has this happened for me? Whatever, whatever the would be tragic or what, you know, tragic thing is. We'll probably totally try to thing is that you have had in your life. Um, uh, like when with HIV, you know, when I first got it, I was like, oh my God, this is so terrible.And one die, you know? And I'm like, you know what? This is pretty awesome because you know what, it forced me to be more healthy than what I was, you know, diet, exercise, vitamins, and stuff like that, that I wasn't taking at least not consistent consistently. And there were government programs in place to help me and stuff like that, that word, you know, very, you know, relatively easy to get for people with HIV or if not, you know, just for us.And so. Right now I view it as a blessing because it helps me to understand my mortality and things like that. And it helps me to want to enjoy life more in the present because the whole grain door and illusion I'm going to live forever and I'm invincible, you know, flew out the window. So I now view HIV as the [00:56:00] total blessing.I'm not saying, you know, they'll run out and get it. Anybody. I'm not saying that, but I'm saying, you know, since it's here, you know, I think I did my best to turn that chaos into something that was more creative. And so, and so the last thing we're going to, I love you. And I love everything that you're talking about in, um, and like you said, with the podcast, basically using them.Get out, you know, the fire and the heat that comes up inside of you. Yeah. They're, they're damn good for that, but so are I still wear blogs too? And I really, I really love, you know, read ambitious for on a good blog and the work that we do, the blog that you have, the podcast that you've made, the thing I love the most about the message they will outlive us.And so if this earth, you know, remains and stuff like that, you know what we went through now, you know, saying it can help people, however many more [00:57:00] years, the earth has left because we were unselfish and we're willing to be transparent. Sandy: Oh, let me tell you to van. And that just gave me full body chills, full body chills.I think for me, when it comes down to why I do what I do, I just want to, I want to leave an infrared for future generations. I want them to have some type of a roadmap that I didn't have, and that's going to guide them in the direction of learning, how to listen to themselves and learning how to trust themselves, which are things that we are not taught in school.And so that when I think about, you know, why I wake up and why I do these things every day, why I go through much on my own and like, why do I keep wanting to face the things that, that, you know, certain traumas or whatever that is. Um, because I know that I'm transforming that energy and planting a safe for future generations.And this is also why in that podcast episode, chaos into clarity or chaos into creativity. I talked about. When you feel like you have a lot of chaos [00:58:00] going on in your life, you get to realize that you are the eye and the center of the storm. All the storm is happening around you, but you are the eye in the center.And if you can just learn to surrender and lean on God and lean on the greater forest, lean on Jesus, whoever that means to you, then you're just going to feel like I'm I'm I am living the life and being the instrument of a forest that is so much greater than myself. And that's why I sang that song by song.Like when I was recording it, it just came up in my mind. I'm like, oh, like, I'm just going to sing it because it's going up. And it's such a great song. If you guys. Um, if you guys don't know what we're talking about, it's a lean on me by bill Withers who actually just passed away. I think a couple of years ago, a year and a half ago.And it's, it's, I think it's a popular song that we all know and it's it, it's it, the lyrics even start off by saying sometimes in our lives, we all have pain. We all have sorrow, but if we are wise, we know that there's always tomorrow [00:59:00] lean on me when you're not strong. And I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on.I think about God in those moments, you know, like that's, that's what that's, what's being said to us. And we just have to learn to listen. De'Vannon: Okay. Well, you know, you bought me to the, to the next and final point. It was time for us to sing the song anyway. So give us the lyrics. Cause we got to, uh, at least gave them a verse.And then after we seen this, I'll go ahead and let you have the last word. And then you can, um, tell people whatever you're partying. Or not partying, but I'll see you soon, uh, knowledge or wisdom will be, and we'll be putting all of your contact information and everything in the show notes and stuff like that.But I like, I like for my guests to have the last word, because you know, we're here to hear you. Oh though I do Blab on and on and on and on and on. So some time then I realize we all have[01:00:00]but if we know.You can take the, uh, the coerce. Cause I want to just hear you nowSandy: another podcast in general, but you know me,now be your friend. I'll help you carryit. Won't be long gone. And me, um,De'Vannon: or you let the Lord use you hallelujah. On a Tuesday afternoon.[01:01:00]No, write your last, your last words to the audience. Give us your, Sandy: my last word. As we impart on this journey for now is. I feel like the one most powerful instrument that we have each been given, no matter what religious background you have, no matter what experience is not, you know, chemicals, gases, weapons, war, fear, vaccinations, sciences, education, money.Those are not the most powerful instruments that we've been given. The most powerful instrument that we've ever been given is our minds. And with your mind, you can create. Anything that you desire and you can use it to feel the highest and greatest good. And what that looks like for you. So I pray that you continue to nourish your mind and feed your mind with things that [01:02:00] help you to create a garden that feel like peace and joy and happiness to you and love.And that with this, you use your mind to be an instrument of love for a greater force. So we all, we all have brilliant minds and there's so much that we can do with it. And as my cousin who passed away from leukemia says, life is like a blank canvas do with it, whatever you want. De'Vannon: Oh, I'm so sorry that she passed away by that.What a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful quote from her. All right. Thank you so much, Sandy, for your wisdom today, you are blessed. Sandy: Thank you. Thank you so much for having me. It was so much fun.De'Vannon: Thank you all so much for taking time to listen to the sex drugs and Jesus podcast. It really means everything to me.

https://americanmeditation.org/your-conscience/ Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges By Leonard Perlmutter An Elegant, Simple & Life-Changing Guide to Putting Your Conscience in the Driver's Seat We as human beings choose what to say and how to act every day. We barrel ahead on a path that is easy and pleasurable. We try to avoid pain, and we seek immediate results and gratification-even though some part of our mind is throwing up red flags as we make our choices. Those red flags (and the green ones too) come from our Conscience, which inevitably proves to be right. Oftentimes, we are not aware of the gentle nudge, or even the clear warning from the quiet voice of the Conscience because we are simply not tuned in. As a result, life becomes filled with misery and suffering, financial struggles, illness, depression, overall dissatisfaction, addiction, destructive habits and behaviors, distrust of everything and broken relationships. But now, a brilliant book by Leonard Perlmutter shows you how to give your Conscience control in your life so that all of your decisions support and guide you to act for your highest good, leading to a life of joy, love, peace and both personal and professional success. Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges shows you how to listen for the innate Universal wisdom that is available to you in every moment of your life, and how to curb your tendency to ignore or overrule it. At this moment in our nation's history, given the pain caused by a global pandemic, a reckoning on race, and a more divisive political climate than ever before, our Conscience can help us turn this ship around, one heart and mind at a time. Perlmutter is the internationally renowned meditation teacher (also known as Ram Lev), founder of the revered American Meditation Institute, author of the bestselling The Heart and Science of Yoga, and originator of National Conscience Month. Using proven tools drawn from the 5,000-year-old Yoga Science playbook and adapted for the Western mind, he has created a plan that crisply, simply and elegantly puts the power back into your hands-when you adhere to your Conscience. Perlmutter shows how the body is powered by the Four Functions of the Mind, and it is guided by your Super Conscious Wisdom, directly connected to an infinite source of knowledge and wisdom. He first explains the role of these functions (Unconscious, Senses/Logic, Ego and the Conscience) and how they influence us, then demonstrates how you can train yourself to focus, honor and act on the Conscience, which is the ultimate decision maker! He illustrates that when the Ego, Senses, or Unconscious habits are in charge, it distorts our perception and therefore, we are put at risk of making a decision from erroneous input. Perlmutter refers to the Conscience by its traditional Yoga terminology, the Buddhi, and notes that "when regularly exercised, the Conscience/Buddhi becomes sharp and clear like a brilliant mirror" which, of course, makes it easier to reflect our inner wisdom and guide our actions. He also introduces the concept of the two types of thoughts that precede any action-the preya (anything that leads to short-term ego or sense gratification, but conflicts with our inner intuitive wisdom and leads to pain or dis-ease) and the shreya (which is always in harmony with the inner wisdom, and leads to positive, constructive action in service to self and the world.) He shows you how to be guided and directed by shreya to hone your path to a life free of painful inner and outer conflict.

Your Conscience: The Key to Unlock Limitless Wisdom and Creativity and Solve All of Life's Challenges with Leonard Perlmutter The book offers a straightforward explanation of the four functions of the mind, according to the ancient wisdom of Yoga Science: the senses, ego, unconscious mind, and the Conscience. Readers are taught how - and why - to coordinate these four functions in order to live the joyful life we all long for. Our mind is continually generating thoughts which lead to actions, and the Law of Karma states that every action brings about a consequence. Understanding how to harness the power of our thoughts, then, is critical to making choices that lead to positive consequences. Leonard Perlmutter is the internationally renowned meditation teacher (also known as Ram Lev), founder of the revered American Meditation Institute, author of the bestselling The Heart and Science of Yoga, and originator of National Conscience Month. Using proven tools drawn from the 5,000-year-old Yoga Science playbook and adapted for the Western mind, he has created a plan that crisply, simply and elegantly puts the power back into your hands-when you adhere to your Conscience.   *************************************************** For more information about BITEradio products and services visit: http://www.biteradio.me/index.html To view the photography of Robert at: rpsharpe.picfair.com

Today my guest is someone who I've known since childhood. He is not only a wonderful guru, but also a family friend. This person is Yogi Amrit Desai. Yogi Amrit Desai is one of the earliest yoga gurus who brought yoga to the West in 1960. He has been repeatedly honored by world renowned authorities and organizations for bringing the inner dimension of Patanjali's Ashtanga Yoga to the west. His teachings have ignited the fire that began the initial renaissance of the inner dimension of yoga in the 20th century. Over the last 60 years, Shri Amritji has founded some of the largest yoga centers and health centers in North America. Amritji currently resides at the Amrit Yoga Institute, an internationally recognized training and wellness center in Salt Springs, Florida. Today, Amritji continues to share the ancient depths, hidden meanings and modern applications of the authentic yogic roots from which he began. Thousands of I AM Yoga, IAM Yoga Nidra and I AM Yoga Therapy teachers have been trained in the modalities he developed worldwide. Some of his many awards include the Doctor of Yoga Science award- Vishwa Yoga Ratna presented by the president of India and International Yoga Grand Master and nominated for Padma Vibhushan nomination by the ex- prime minister of India- Chandra Shekhar. This is what we discuss in depth: How Yogi Amrit Desai found his path & his “why.” How the yoga teachings of “I AM Yoga” can be used to lead and live a simpler, healthier and happier life. The importance of diet and how important that is to leading a healthy life both inside and out? How can one become better at listening to the mind/body about what foods are healthy and good for them. “If it doesn't change your life- it's not Yoga, its exercise” - Yogi Amrit Desai Make sure to checkout Gurudev Shri Amritji's website and his 10 meditation series and 3 day program: 10 Day Meditation Course: https://ecourses.amrityoga.org/catalog/info/id:157 Xmas Course: https://ecourses.amrityoga.org/catalog/info/id:177 www.amrityoga.org www.amritji.org

Cancer’s treatments and side effects can be as debilitating as the disease itself. The protocols and surgeries can create lifelong physical limitations and vulnerabilities. In addition, most survivors maintain a lasting concern of reoccurrence. These are the areas where yoga’s benefits can have a huge impact as a prescription for reclaiming life. We will talk about yoga’s benefits for cancer patients and survivors as well as some of the science behind them.

Voices of Courage with Ken D. Foster and guests James Sweigert and Leonard Perlmutter Topic: The Courage to Awaken Wealth Today we discuss transcending how we think about and define wealth in order to create an abundance of it in all aspects of our lives. We live in a society that defines wealth as how much money you have in the bank. But, I want to tell you that that’s an antiquated and very narrow vision of wealth. Wealth really is a sense of feeling expanded in ourselves. We have a wealth of great relationships, a wealth of health, and a wealth of happiness and joy in our lives. My first guest, James Sweigert, is a new author, dynamic motivational speaker, and award-winning executive producer and director for film and television who helps others change their stories to transform their lives. He joins me today to discuss the power of the spoken word, the impact of the stories that we tell ourselves about ourselves, and practical ways we can change the stories inside of us that keep us stuck and unhappy. My second guest, Leonard Perlmutter, is the founder and director of The American Meditation Institute, originator of the National Conscience Month observance, and is a noted educator, philosopher, and author. He joins me today to share the importance of letting our conscience be our guide and how we can use it to control, conserve, and transform our greatest natural resource—the power of our thoughts. We Discuss: Taking a deep dive into wealth, what we think about it, and how we define it The stories that we tell ourselves that come from events in our own lives Practical ways that we can change the stories we have that hold us back How the power of the spoken word can completely shape our lives Why remaining a victim to the circumstances in our lives is a choice Powerful words we can use to shift into higher states of consciousness What National Conscience Month is and what inspired this observance The Four Functions of the mind and why they’re so valuable to us How to use the conscience to control the power of our thoughts “The universe will give you whatever story you tell it, so you might as well make it a good, positive one with a happy ending.” — James Sweigert About James James Sweigert is not only an author and motivational speaker, he’s a successful executive producer and director for film and television. Over the past 25 years he has built, run, and sold several multimillion-dollar, award-winning production companies. During the same time, he mentored and coached celebrities, rockstars, and movie executives. The successes in his life were hard-fought; nothing came easy until he changed his story. The youngest of seven, James struggled to be seen and stay safe. He began to be molested at the age of 7. To cope with the chaos and abuse he turned to drugs and alcohol, which led to severe depression and a suicide attempt at the age of 25. This self-destructive pattern continued until he changed his story – and his life. James has not only survived addiction, depression, homelessness, suicide, and molestation, he has triumphed. He is a storyteller who was able to understand that how he was telling his own story and the power behind his words could shape his life. He is teaching others the same through his work as a mentor, motivational speaker and “Life Cheerleader.” James currently lives in Beverly Hills, California with a loving partner, a close community, and an incredible dog, with the ultimate purpose to help others change their stories to transform their lives. About Leonard Leonard Perlmutter is the founder and director of The American Meditation Institute, and originator of the National Conscience Month observance. He is a noted educator, philosopher, and author of both the award-winning book, The Heart and Science of Yoga®, and the mind/body medicine journal, “Transformation.” Leonard has served on the faculties of the New England Institute of Ayurvedic Medicine, the Himalayan Yoga Teachers Association, and the College of Saint Rose. He is a direct disciple of Swami Rama––who, in laboratory conditions at the Menninger Institute, demonstrated that blood pressure, heart rate, and the autonomic nervous system can be voluntarily controlled. Leonard has presented courses on Yoga Science as Holistic Mind/Body medicine at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Kaiser Permanente, Albany Medical College, the Commonwealth Club of California, the U. S. Military Academy at West Point, and “The New York Times” Yoga Forum with Dean Ornish MD. His unique curriculum to reduce and eliminate burnout in physicians and health-care providers has been certified by the American Medical Association and the American Nurses associations since 2007. “The more that you let your conscience be your guide, you will always be led to your highest and greatest good.” — Leonard Perlmutter

This week, I’m talking to Lara Benusis, a longtime yoga teacher and yoga therapist who has taught yoga in a healthcare setting for years. (She was the first full-time yoga teacher at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.) She’s also on the PhD track at Columbia University studying applied physiology. Her focus is exploring the efficacy and mechanisms of exercise and yoga on the survivorship of cancer. Lara is a wealth of knowledge and a critical thinker. I love what he has to say about yoga research and her ideas for how yoga can be betterintegrated into the healthcare system.Some of the things we talk about are:* Why it’s important to study yoga from a scientific perspective, the challenges of defining yoga in a clinical setting, and the challenges of using human research subjects in studies* The research pyramid - and why some types of research or more reliable than others* What she thinks of Yo science and how to separate the good, research-backed data from unsubstantiated claims* How her role as a researcher has changed her approach to teaching yoga* Her advice for yoga teachers who are interested in working within healthcareShow notes: http://jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode63SHOUT-OUT TO OUR SPONSORSAUrate is a fine jewelry company made in New York City that was founded by women for women.

This lecture was given by Swami Tattwamayananda on Thursday, April 11, 2019 at Stanford University. The lecture was hosted by the Stanford Hindu Students Association as part of Interfaith Harmony Week. -Everybody wants to do noble actions and live up to a spiritual ideal but they also face mental conflicts when they actually try to start a new life. Yoga teaches the origin of those conflicts and how to overcome them.-Every action or thought (‘karma’) leaves residuals effects (‘vrittis’) in our mental system. -This accumulation of vrittis forms our character. It leads to strong tendencies (‘samskaras’) and further actions (‘karma’). This is an endless wheel (‘chakram’).-Deep obsessive attraction (‘raga’), hatred (‘dvesa’) and fear (‘abhinivesa’) keep us chained and conflicted. -Actions from previous lives have formed much of our character from this life.-We have the freedom to start a new life by performing new positive actions and changing our karma.-The result is a deep inner transcendental joy (‘citta prasada’)The Yoga Tradition teaches a few invaluable techniques for succeeding.1) Maitri, Karuna, Mudhita, Upeksha – friendliness toward fellow spiritual seekers, compassion for those who are seeking, sincere admiration for the virtuous, and indifference toward the negative.2) Yamas and Niyamas – close all negative channels3) Feed the mind with good spiritual food before meditation otherwise, it will eat bad food and revolt.4) The mind never sits still, so the rascal must be given positive creative outlets.5) A seeker turns his selfish worries into a great unselfish worry or desire (‘parinama duhkha’). Buddha overcame all his obstacles and became the Buddha.A comprehensive exposition of this science in 111 lectures can be found at sfvedanta.org.

Sandy Vo is a trained meditation teacher, visibility expert and transformational speaker. She has faced major adversities including having depression and learned how to overcome them by practicing ancient holistic modalities. She has experienced what many today can relate to and used these lessons to develop unique approaches to inspire others to lead an impactful and meaningful life.  Sandy specializes in integrating ancient wisdom and modalities with modern day living.  Her teaching and work stem from AMI Meditation, the modern link to the World’s Oldest Health and Wellness Tradition called Yoga Science. She has a national clientele base of students and professionals, including therapists, entrepreneurs, leaders, creative freelancers, holistic experts and individuals on the spiritual path of surrendering to their Highest expression. Sandy receives her training at the American Meditation Institute and studies from Leonard Perlmutter (Ram Lev), one of the world’s most knowledgeable and respected meditation masters and mind/body medicine pioneers teaching today. She is also the founder and host of the top-rated transformational podcast called Dear Self & Co.  As a creative, kitchen singer, yogi, storyteller, writer, and big believer in humans; Sandy is on a mission to teach holistic tools that help others work through and overcome obstacles while guiding them back home to their true Self. In this episode, Sandy shares how her life spiraled out of control starting when her father abandoned the family when she was a child. She faced other loss along the way, and ultimately lost herself in drugs, alcohol and depression. At her lowest, she found Meditation and the path to reaching her Highest. She shares her powerful journey and the inspiration for you to find the same growth within yourself. Key Points from the Episode with Sandy Vo: Sandy grew up in a happy, immigrant household with parents who were very open about what they went through in Vietnam. Her mother is half-African-American, half-Vietnamese, with her father being deployed in Vietnam during the war. Sandy’s mother never knew him, and grew up seriously mistreated because of her mixed-race and different looks – including by her own mother (Sandy’s grandmother). Her father grew up in extreme poverty as one of 13 kids who barely had any food to eat. Sandy’s parents worked incredibly hard to provide for their family, and built a successful business that fell apart in the financial crisis in 2008. Her father ended up leaving to try to pursue better financial opportunity for the family, but instead he just abandoned them. This was crushing to Sandy as she was so close to her dad growing up. Her mother, two younger siblings and her went to Washington to try to get their father to come back, and he refused, which was devastating. Her mother relocated the family to New York, and Sandy connected with an older cousin who helped Sandy through this incredibly tough time as she was facing depression. Sandy soon found out that her cousin was diagnosed with late-stage cancer, so Sandy went down to Virginia to help her cousin, who was able to live two years despite a prognosis of only six months. This marked the second major loss in Sandy’s life, and she soon suffered the third loss, which was of herself. She stopped studying, starting drinking and doing drugs, eating terribly and was just overcome by stress and anxiety that was so bad that her hair started falling out. She gained 45 pounds, and finally looked at herself and realized she needed help. She saw a school psychologist, who just prescribed her an anti-depressant. Sandy had seen friends take these drugs and become zombies, so she refused them. She felt like, at the end of the day, she wants to be here and be better, and not lose herself. She started to fix her own life – she eliminated the things that weren’t serving her, including the alcohol, drugs, wrong foods and people. She ended up getting into fitness, but that became a new escape for her, so she started training intensely, including signing up for a body building competition. Despite the success with her fitness, Sandy’s depression was actually growing and she became suicidal. She was living to exist, as she puts it, which felt like a form of suicide in and of itself, and she eventually went five days without sleep and lost awareness of who she was. Her best friend’s mother stepped in to try to help, eventually bringing Sandy to a holistic, Ayurvedic doctor who spent three hours with her, asking questions she had never been asked before, and eventually directed her to meditation, and it just made sense to her. The place he sent her was the American Meditation Institute, where she met Leonard Perlmutter, who became her teacher. Meditation brought her clarity, peace, equanimity, safety and comfort that she had never felt before in her life, and likened it to being in her mother’s womb. She found herself wanting to answer the questions of who she was, where she was heading and how to do it. She decided not to pursue the marketing path she was studying for and instead pursue meditation, which became her full-time path. She realized that she is here for a greater purpose and bigger reason, and used that to find the strength to stick to the better choices she needed to make. Sandy has recently reconnected with her father, which taught her that when you do the inner work and understand the meaning behind things, you can get through the darkest things in your life and move ahead.

He has studied in Rishikesh, India and is a direct disciple of Swami Rama of the Himalayas––the man who, in laboratory conditions at the Menninger Institute, demonstrated that blood pressure, heart rate and the autonomic nervous system can be voluntarily controlled. These research demonstrations have been one of the major cornerstones of the mind/body movement.     For more information on Leonard or the book: American Meditation Institute at www.americanmeditation.org and on Amazon.com

For Beyond 50's "Spirituality" talks, listen to an interview with Leonard Perlmutter. He is one of the Western world's leading pioneers in the introduction of meditation into the cultural firmament, having founded the American Meditation Institute (AMI) in 1996. You'll learn from him about the way to meld meditation and yoga into your busy life experience to bring a new level of peace, contentment and wellbeing. While most North Americans today perceive Yoga as a valuable source of exercise and quieting of the mind, The Heart and Science of Yoga shows that it is so much more. Yoga Science is an eight-step method for managing the life force energy that propels us and connects us to the infinite power that is within and without us all. And the result of mastering it is the bliss and daily joy that lies in the realization of our connection.
