Even on your worst day, you are living miracle – Peter Crone

Speaker: Peter Crone

Peter Crone on the Miracle of human life:

The expression I use, is I say,

We are all masterpieces and works in progress simultaneously..

So to be human is to be extraordinary.

I have a quote, which is says,

Even on your worst day, you are a living miracle.

If you think about the trillions of reactions that are happening just within the biochemistry of our physicality, it’s, it’s overwhelming that we can eat food with friends at a dinner table and our body will take care of the process of digestion went to secrete the bile from the bile duct, when to release more hydrochloric acid, to break down the food, the mechanisms that then have to actually occur as it goes through the small intestine and food is separated, you know, absorbed, and then it’s taken to the cellular level and there’s all of this metabolism that takes place at an even deeper level. So that the apple that you just ate at some point will become a liver cell.

I mean, that is just mind blowing like magic, right? Yet we don’t think about it.

So when you really understand the endless myriad of transactions that are happening in the human brain and the human body, that actually gives us the experience of being live, it’s humbling.

You kind of can’t help, but feel a sense of gratitude and grace by virtue of the fact that I have a human as a human, I have the capacity to see the people I love. I have the capacity to communicate the way that I feel about myself, life and others. The fact that I can smell the sense that I can hear the dulcet tones of a loved one or a child telling me what they feel. And I can taste the extraordinary abundance of these different flavors that we get to experience by virtue of mother nature.

Just those five senses that we take for granted every day from when you really get it, it becomes impossible to not revere life, your own, and others’

To recognize what an immaculate conception, every being is by virtue of the gift that it is so we get to experience life in its whole.

Being human IS the opportunity.

And so when you recognize that by virtue of your, by virtue of being here, and again, I am not in any way diminishing or dismissing the hardship that many people go through. There are people literally starving. I can talk about the joys of tasting food and people are like, well, that’s great for you. I don’t have any. And so that is something that collectively we have to do a better job of right. There is such inequality.

That is, to me, something that really hit home many years ago was the,

just to be alive is itself a miracle.

And from that moment forth, I stopped berating myself. I’m not perfect. And there’s so, so humility and patience that we can develop when we understand that and then afford others. And so certainly as it relates to kids, you know, their central nervous system is developing at every stage as it is still for me. If I try and take up a new language or I try and take up a new activity, I’m not going to be that good at it because it’s not something that I’ve assimilated into the way that my brain is currently programmed.

So if we could afford each other just a little bit more patience, a little bit more compassion, a little bit more empathy for the fact that it is difficult.

It is sometimes challenging to take on a new task and that’s okay. Then that again would make for a much more loving and accepting society.

But within that, we never neglect the magic that it is to be a human being.

And I know honestly, to be any form of life, you know, you just, yeah, just the intricate details of say a little bit spider, like, I mean, it’s just insane. Like that is magical. Now. I might not necessarily want that spider crawling across my face in the middle of the night, depending on what kind of spider it is, but I’m certainly going to Revere the fact that that is an expression of life and it at some level is just absolutely mystical.

What It Feels Like To Be In Love – Peter Crone on Unconditional Love

Speaker: Peter Crone

Transcript – What It Feels Like To Be In Love – Peter Crone

When you really discover what it means to fully accept who you are all aspects then that I would assert is the discovery of what love is.

It’s really that simple, like, you know, it’s very easy as a spiritual teachers and esoteric philosophers and poets to talk about love as though that is our nature, and I’m not denying that, but it’s one thing to know that, okay, I am love. It’s another thing to experience I AM love.

And the way I’ve often used for myself as an expression, I say, I AM IN-LOVE and people often will say, wow, that’s awesome. Congratulations. And I’m like, no, no, no, no… I am IN THE ENERGY… I am in the essence, I am bathing within the quality that is love itself.

Yes, of course. I love companionship. I love falling in love with other… that’s a fun experience, but to recognize that I am actually held by the essence of love itself, that is, I would say not only a rare experience, it’s an anomaly to the norm, but I would assert it’s actually what we’re all here for… is to awaken to the fact that I am held by the container of the essence of love itself. And until such that I get that I will invariably be seeking it through the adoration or the validation or the reassurance of other, for which reason I will constantly be dependent on what they do or say to the point that everything is now a perceived threat. And for that reason, I will be perpetually in a state of exhaustion, which is really a futile battle for me to overcome the fact that I believe that there’s fundamentally something wrong with me. That’s not lovable.

And there in lies, the biggest pretense of all that, I somehow believe that there is something wrong with me. And I’m looking to the outside world to compensate for that or to reassure me otherwise, which is again, it’s a futile plight because if that’s how I’ve defined myself, then it doesn’t matter how many millions of people might love me until such time that I really get that for myself. It’s all window dressing.

You know, when people are like always trying to lean into like positive vibes or good feelings,

they’re denying 50% of what it means to be human, which is that just by virtue of being a sentient being, you’re going to have a myriad of different feelings.

Some of which you might think are great or the negative, but to what degree can you be big enough as a human being, to hold the space, the container of love, just like a really adoring mother does for her child, which she allows all of it to be that, of course you may have preference, but there’s no judgment of a child that’s just experiencing and self expressing whatever is going on. That is the container of love that I want to inspire, that I do inspire for people to bring to themselves, such that they can make space for their humanity, warts and all.

It’s not always going to be pretty, but that’s the nature of love. The very nature of love is such that it actually makes space for that, which isn’t necessarily lovable.

It’s easy to love all the parts of you that you love. It’s easy to love the parts of you that you like or that you think are your greatest features or your greatest character traits, but where can you develop love for the part of you that you find to be imperfect to the part of you that finds to be flawed? That’s the very essence of what loves means.

To make sufficient space for all parts of me, even those that my persona, my ego are somehow belittling, berating, or judging. That is the antithesis of love.

And so that is why it’s almost beautifully designed by virtue of being human… We are flawed, we are imperfect. And if it weren’t for that, we wouldn’t understand what it means to develop true. Unconditional love.

This Is Why We Suffer (and This Is How We End Suffering)

Speaker: Peter Crone

Transcript – Peter Crone on Suffering and How To End Our Own Internal Suffering:

The way life occurs to us is that there’s always somewhere to get to, until you realize that there isn’t

…Similarly suffering is always present until we realize that there isn’t suffering. And that to me is the beauty of the human experience.

So, suffering is unavoidable by virtue of we’re here, but nonetheless, the opportunity, the possibility that it is to be human is to transcend suffering.

And it’s such a beautiful design again, because if it weren’t for the previous suffering, we don’t get to experience the latter freedom.

As an adult, I got to see myself in a picture and all black and white of me as a child and my cute little onesy, whatever it is running with my arms out, my mother is sort of very gently ushering me from behind. So you can see that she’s sort of directing me towards somebody who you can’t see because they’re off camera. They’re out of frame from the picture. But I know because of the setting, it was set at a Harbor at a dock where the boat had just, you know, come to birth and we’ve probably come off the boat and I’m running towards my dad because my dad worked on the boats. And as I looked at that photo and it’s this whole black and white, and this adorable little child, which you know, is running towards his father, who he loves his dad. And what had occurred to me is at that moment, one of the most important parts of love is the energy of missing somebody.

We often think that love is I’m with someone I’m sharing a dinner with them, I’m going to bed with them, or it could be a family member who I’m living with or I’m sharing time with constantly. But that denies the flip side of the same coin, which is one of the most beautiful aspects of love is what feels like the absence of the experience of love. And we can call that missing somebody… and why it was so profound for me is to see that little child run towards his dad with the excitement of the fact that for a minute, for minutes, maybe a day, maybe a week, it could be longer…. We experience the separation from that, which we love.

And if it weren’t for the experience of separation, we would not appreciate the joy of love.

And so why I use that example as it relates to suffering and freedom is because separation is hurtful, it’s painful, and that is suffering. And in this case, suffering is where we become separate from the knowledge, from the true wisdom of our true essence, whilst freedom is the remembrance and the awakening to the essence of who I am at my core, which is freedom.

So the two are inextricably connected and simultaneously necessary in order to experience one or the other.

If it weren’t for the experience of missing, I don’t get to go to the depths of the joy of love and equally, if it weren’t for the pain and the seeming inconvenience of human suffering, then I wouldn’t get to experience the elation and the joy of liberation that is true freedom.

When you really understand that dynamic…. it’s so beautiful to see the duality of everything. And I would actually take it a little deeper, which is to say the freedom really is the container. Like the love is the container that holds both.

We have the joy and we have the misery, we have the happiness and we have the sadness. And this is where if we can be big enough, expanded enough as human beings that we make space for all of it… it would be as nonsensical.

You know, for people who think they just want to be positive and happy, that is like asinine. It would be like me saying, no, no, no. All I want to do is inhale. Cause that’s so good. You get oxygen. If you’re like, what the hell? Like if it weren’t for the fact that I get to exit and let go of, you know, in this case, obviously physiologically biologically the toxins of carbon dioxide and stuff that no longer serves me because it’s already served its purpose in my body. Then I wouldn’t get the joy of having that cyclical process of inhale exhale that keeps me alive.

So similarly, the actual nature of duality, both parts are flip sides of the same coin that are an inherent experience of being human. And the degree to which we can embrace both is the degree to which we are truly free to allow all aspects of what it means to be human.

So suffering is really one aspect, but it is an aspect where there is ultimately a form of ignorance. And I don’t mean that as a judgment. I mean, it truly, in the fact that we don’t know something.

We suffer because we don’t know how extraordinary we are. We suffer because we don’t know that we actually are loved. We don’t, we suffer because we don’t feel safe. And it is in that ignorance than not knowing the absence of knowledge that we suffer.

And the process of awakening is realizing, Oh, these are lies. And as I transcend lie, I expand into my bigger nature, which then is the experience of liberation, which is contained in the safety that we are held and beneficiaries of life, because we are fundamentally loved.

The way I look at it is that this dimension that we are in as human beings to me is a revelatory dimension. What does that mean? Life will reveal where you yourself, as a being do not experience freedom.

Life will present you with people and circumstances to reveal where you’re not free.

So why is that a completely different perspective or different way of looking at the experience of life? Because most people are playing the human game. What is the human game they’re trying to accumulate, right? Accumulation of status, accumulation of possessions, accumulation of finance. And they’re trying to play the game of I’m becoming a better human by virtue of what I have usually… now that’s not wrong, but it’s also, to me, it’s a powerless game to play.

Whereas the awakening process of who I am as a being who is limitless, who is in its infancy and its true inherent nature, nothing but love peace, power, freedom.

That is to me, the game, that’s really at foot for human beings. That is the opportunity that it is to be a human is to awaken to the true essence of who I am rather than being defined by the persona that has been conditioned over time. That is now founded in the essence of survival. That is two entirely different approaches to the human experience. One is linear and one is vertical, right? So linear is okay, hopefully over time I’m going to improve. I got a promotion, I got a corner office. I got a bigger home. I’ve got a nicer car. I’ve got a little bit more money. That is, you know, there’s again, no judgment, but it is a futile dead end method of trying to find internal value by using external and exogenous means to bring some sense of worth.. versus discovering. Wow. My inherent nature is freedom.

My inherent nature is love. My inherent nature is peace and life is constantly giving me the opportunity to awaken to those qualities by virtue of presenting to me ironically, where I don’t experience that.

So that’s why, again, I said, life will present you with people and circumstances to reveal where you’re not free.

We often look as those circumstances as frustrating as things we don’t want, but that’s precisely why they’re being given to us because we’ve yet to see how powerful and extraordinary we are that we have yet to integrate those experiences and see that I can truly be with whatever is occurring and maintain my inner sense of peace and freedom and love.

We arrive as beings, but shrouded in constraint, we arrive as souls, but constrained by fear and the game of this particular dimension of planet earth and being human is Oh, awesome. We are set here so that we can reveal where we are confined, constrained and have some sense of separation and limitation. And so life is the process of sloughing by virtue of these trials and tribulations. And these sort of confronting circumstances really is a form of resistance, which just like polishing a diamond is allowing us to recognize where we still feel constrained or we arrived with our bucket of fears. And as I say, you know, the “ winner of the game” is who can get rid of their fears the the fastest, not that there is any urgency, but we could say, and I would assert the true liberation and true freedom, which is my main product is when we have confronted all of the fears that we arrived with to recognize that in fact, there is nothing to fear itself whatsoever. And that was always just a narrative that was part of our persona or our ego. That was just simply the cocoon in which we found we needed to live in order to stay safe. When in fact it’s quite the antithesis of that, which is true. Security is when I no longer need the illusion of external security.

If the experience I have with another person is of some form of disharmony, of judgment of hostility. Then that really is a reflection of what’s going on inside of me.

So as I say, as we express, so we experience, right. So if I’m expressing anger towards whoever or whatever the circumstance may be, then I am experiencing anger, right? So this, this water travels through say a garden hose. If the garden hose was sent in today, I had a feeling internally, it would feel the passage of the water when it was cold or hot, or how fast it’s moving. So likewise as we express our emotional state, we’re under the impression that it’s by virtue of what’s going on outside of us, but whether it is or not in terms of our interpretation when nonetheless experiencing all of that.

So then why wouldn’t I, if I know that correlation, if I’m, if I’m actually aware of that formula, then why wouldn’t I, wherever possible, bring an experience of love and joy to whoever it might be, because then I’m equally the beneficiary of it. And this is why exercises like gratitude journals or going and being a volunteer and being of service to a community feels good. Why does it feel good? Because what I’m actually doing is I’m bringing the experience of my true self is what I would have saw and I’m sharing to another, I’m giving to another. And therefore I am equally the beneficiary of my own active contribution.

You know, Einstein said, you either, you look at the universe in one of two ways, everything is a miracle or nothing’s a miracle, right? And so really when you get, we are beneficiaries of life, even though again, I’ve been through a ton of what felt like unnecessarily hardship that at the time, my little persona was like, I don’t want this. This sucks, but really in hindsight is often the case we’ve recognized. Wow. If it weren’t for those events, if it weren’t for those hardships, then I wouldn’t have discovered that expansiveness of what I’ve just stepped into and why I use the expression that smooth seas never made a good sailor, right? So we need adversity itself is the catalyst for growth. It is. Life is the greatest teacher by virtue of the fact that it gives us challenges so that it can, as I said earlier, slough off anything that is confining us, anything that is holding us back a constraint that is in some way, limiting ourself expression, we need some resistance to get rid of that.

And that is at times a very difficult pill to swallow, but it is nonetheless the catalyst to discover that really we are held eternally.

It’s like the metaphor of the image of these trapeze artists, right? The experience for anybody who goes up on a trapeze from the perspective of the ego is fear. If there’s no net, right? You, you would feel such trepidation of letting go of the trapeze bar to transition maybe to your partner and be caught in the absence of knowing there was some safety net and that’s the ego’s experiences. It goes through life. It feels that at any turn its existence is in potential danger. Everything can come across as a potential threat, and that’s an exhausting place to live from.

Conversely, if we can tap into this deeper essence of understanding the nature of life and particularly the nature of who we are, then at every turn, there is always a safety net. It might not feel like it, but we can drop, we can fall. We can miss the grip of the partners. We transitioned from trapeze bar to trapeze bar and it’s okay. And that we could say our errors and mistakes are failures and it’s okay.

Michael Bernard Beckwith on manifesting abundance into your life:

Transcript: 6 Things You Should Know About Manifesting A Better Life: Michael Bernard Beckwith (Full Interview on Super Soul Sunday)

We are vibrational beings. We’re not just flesh and blood. If you put anything under a microscope, an intense microscope, you can ultimately see that everything is vibration and as the scientist are now telling us, there’s information there. But it’s not solid. It’s always moving. So we’re vibrational beings. And when we lift our vibration to what we want to experience, it happens first on a vibratory level. And then it shows up and manifest in our life. So people who are holding on to rancor, animosity, they’re slowing down their vibration.

Another way of saying is you cannot have, what you’re not willing to become vibrationally. If you do get it, you’ll lose it, you see?

This is why people that win the lottery, they lose everything or they’ll finally get the person they think they want to be with. They can’t keep the relationship or they’ll get a modicum of success, but can’t hold onto it. Because inside they weren’t vibrationally aligned. They really hadn’t become it. So you can temporarily manipulate and get things, but to have it completely, you have to lift your vibration and become that in the vibration. You’re not really attracting things to you, you’re really radiating. It’s really a radiation.

I could cry right now.

It’s like, if I become the vibrational frequency of love, harmony, peace, and I’m radiating that, it’s going to show up in my life.

That’s the key. That’s the word. You’re not attracting it. You have to be it and radiate it. And then it comes. It is drawn to you and you to it.

Right. You have to like yourself, when you’re by yourself. You have to like yourself. When you’re by yourself, you have to look at those thoughts, the beautiful thoughts, the crazy thoughts, you have to embrace yourself. You have to forgive yourself. You have to love yourself. And when you can fall in love with yourself and like yourself when you’re by yourself, now you can be with others. But if you don’t like yourself when you’re by yourself, then you’re pulling on others to make you happy.

Is it possible to life vision when you’re at the bottom?

Not only is it possible, that’s probably the best time to do it. When circumstances and situations are pressing in upon us, the only way we can overcome them is to go within. To actually begin to ask very empowering questions with the awareness that this universal presence and its law, will answer any question that you ask. So if you’re in a situation that is pressing on you and you ask, what’s trying to emerge in my life? What is my gift to share? What is my purpose? Why am I here on the planet? Not just, how can I pay my rent and not just, how can I stop the pain?

If you ask empowering questions, the universe will answer these questions in a language and in a way that you can understand. There’ll be inner prompting. There’ll be intuitive hits, nudges, signs, symbols, dreams. It’ll come in the language of the individual, soul, and heart.

The difficulty is that when people are in tough situations, they ask disempowering questions. They say, what’s wrong? Who’s to blame? Why me? Those are the disempowering questions. So the universe will answer those, too. It’ll pull on the database of human experience and say, you were born on the wrong side of the tracks, or you were born on the right side of the tracks or this happened or that happened. It will give you a bevy of excuses. But if you ask an empowering question, you’ll get an answer to rise above the muck.

So it’s all about the question, the sincerity of the question, and then the ability and the willingness to really listen, to really be available. That where the juice is.

And that is available to every human being.

Whether an individual is in prison, whether an individual’s imprisoned by circumstance, imprisoned in their own mind about an event that happened in their past. It doesn’t matter. Once you ask, with sincerity, the universe will answer. That’s the way it operates.

It goes back to asking the question. But it also goes back to understanding that the presence of God has never made a mistake, doesn’t do do-overs and doesn’t repeat itself. Therefore, each of us are unique expressions of the infinite. The way the infinite gets to express its infinite nature is through its uniqueness. Therefore, I have a mandate to discover myself, find out who and what I am, what my purpose is, and to express it. And that idea within us, is infinite and is always unfolding. So it’s not a one and done. It’s not, I’ve arrived. It’s, I’m always on a journey of unfolding.

You grow where you’re planted.

And then you ask, what’s trying to emerge? What’s trying to unfold? And you’ll start to get hints. You start to take baby steps, walking in that direction. An as you take baby steps, inertia becomes momentum. And then possibilities start to reveal themselves, potential starts to be activated, and you find yourself as you look back, “Wow, I’m changed. I’m different. When did that happen?” You have to be in alignment with it. You have to have a level of practice. You have to give up your resistance to the circumstance. In other words, you’re not arguing and resisting with the circumstances.

I know this person said, “I prayed. I did that. God hadn’t answered me yet.”

This is the deal. God is always answering, but are we receiving, are we listening, are we available? So prayer, meditation, life visioning, it attunes us to become in alignment with that vibration. So we actually can hear it. We can actually feel it and then move in that direction. Many people, if their prayers would be answered, they couldn’t even receive it. They’re not vibrationally ready.

Victim consciousness is where many people live. Somebody did it to me. The reason why I’m not happy is because, my ex boyfriend, my boss.

The world isn’t fair. They’re doing it to me. The reason why I’m not happy is somebody else’s fault. God did it to me. The devil did it to me. My astrological sign did it to me. The numbers did it to me.

My mother. My karma. Yeah.

Okay. That’s the victim stage. Every victim has a victim story. You ask a victim what’s going on, they’ll give you a list of complaints about what’s wrong and who did it. Fannie Lou Hamer once said, “I got sick and tired of being sick and tired.” When you get sick and tired of being sick and tired, something happens. And you start to open up to a possibility that maybe, maybe I made my own way. Maybe there’s something more than what meets the eye.

You’re going to need something that is not within your little mind and your little perception. And that’s where prayer comes in. That’s where meditation comes in. That’s where life visioning comes in. So if you just said, “Help. I’m open. I’m available to something new.” Now you’re on your way.

Yeah. Help is a prayer.

Help is a prayer. I say, when I use the word help, I say, “Hello, eternal, loving presence.” That’s what help means to me. Hello, eternal, loving presence.

Wow. That’s a good one.

Back in the day, when the Bodhi tree existed and a book fell off the shelf. I walked in and the book just slammed on the floor, off the shelf. And it was exactly what I needed to read at that time. And so I learned about manifestation. I learned about the second stage, which is how to manifest, which is establishing intention, beginning to see, visually the kind of life want to live, beginning to have conversation about that kind of life. I tell people, you have to talk about it more than you talk about your problems. Because at the end of the day, if you’re complaining more than you’re talking about your vision, then you’re in inertia.

So this is a shift that takes place where you’re actually talking about the possibilities, more than you’re talking about your issues. You don’t deny the issues. Bad things have happened to people. You’re not denying that those things have happened.

But it’s the energy that you give to it. That is a definite true fact. If you start talking about somebody or you’re engaged in a conversation where you’re gossiping, before long you’re spiraling down.

Energy goes into those lower frequencies. Doubt, worry, fear, now you’re in that sediment. You’re in that dynamic. But if you start talking about possibility, even if we don’t know how to get there, then your energy starts to go up. What if? You ask a what if question. What if all my needs were met? What would I be doing in my life? What if everything is really working together for my good? What if all the bad things that have happened in my life are leading me to activating some great potential in my experience? What if God really is on my side? You ask a what if question and you start to notice little tiny miracles happening in your life. Things start to manifest, you don’t know how they got there.

The primary dark night of the soul is when you’re losing your identification with your previous identity, but you don’t yet have an identification with what’s new emerging. You’re in the dark.

That’s good.

You don’t know. You knew this is who you used to be, but you’re not that anymore. But who you’re becoming, you’re not that either. So it’s dark. And sometimes it’s excruciating. Sometimes it’s a lot of fear, a lot of disconnect. And I tell people that when you’re going through that, tell them to ask this question. If this experience were to last forever, what quality would have to emerge for me to have peace of mind?

So if you ask that question and you, if this particular experience was going to last forever, I would need some strength or I would need some peace. I would need a little bit more, name whatever quality. And what happens is when your attention starts focusing on that quality, rather than resisting the dark night, then the process is speeded up and your identification-

You move through it faster.

You move through it faster. Pain pushes until the vision pulls. So life is progressive and it’s pushing you, until you get pulled by a larger vision. So once you have a vision that you can articulate-

Okay. So pain pushes you. So it’s hard, it’s harder, it’s harder, it’s harder. And it’s trying to force you into having-

A vision. That’s bigger than the pain.

Than the pain. And that’s a principle.

Potential is always bigger than the problem. Potential is always bigger than the problem. Your potential is infinite and is always bigger than whatever problem you’re going through. You begin to have a vision about the possibility, you start to be pulled by it. And then once you really sincerely embrace it and your life begins to be, “Okay, when I wake up this morning, I’m going to walk in the direction of my purpose. I’m going to walk in the direction of my vision.”

I’m going to walk in the direction of that possibility and the potential, instead of allowing myself to go, “Woe is me or I can’t believe.” I’m going to walk in the-

The cosmic two by four doesn’t need to hit you as much.

You’re pulled. You’re being pulled more by joy. And it’s like, “I’m being pulled by something.” Now it doesn’t mean you’re not going to have challenges.

We’re not praying to live a challenge free life. We’re praying that the challenges that come, activate latent potential.

1. Understanding that pain pushes until vision pulls.
   2. Ask what if questions.
   3. Begin to see, visualize, the kind of life you want to live.
   4. Begin to talk about it.
   5. Begin to write it down.
   6. Begin to dream about it. And then what I teach is, you talk about it, doesn’t mean you talk to everybody because everyone is not trustworthy.

That’s right. You talk to selected friends-About it.

You talk to it. You actually talk to the vision. Talk to the possibility. Talk to love. You talk to peace. You talk to prosperity. I see you everywhere. I see you prosperity, in the lawn. I see you abundance, in the grain of the sand. I see you everywhere. You talk to it. And then after a while, you’re talking from it.

Deepak Chopra – You Suffer Because You Don’t Know Who You Are (Amazing Speech)

Transcript Deepak Chopra Interview with Tom Bilyeu

So, suddenly I saw the connection between mind, body, and spirit. But then I was also actually intrigued by the fact that you can have two patients who had the same illness, saw the same doctor, got the same treatment, and had completely different outcomes. One could survive, one could die. And in between, there was a wide range of outcomes.

And it did give me the insight that our normal everyday experience or what we call reality is the hypnosis of social conditioning that actually in reality shifts as your consciousness shifts.

A correlation is not a causation as we know. If the rooster crows in the morning, and the sun rises at the same time, we don’t assume that the rooster cause the sun to rise, okay? But they’re correlated. So your mind, your brain, and the physical world are correlated experiences in a deeper realm of existence, which is not in space or time.

The purpose of all healers and ultimately, of all physicians should be to alleviate suffering. Now, we’ve done a pretty good job with alleviating what we call suffering that had cause acute illness. You break your leg, you get an orthopedic surgeon to fix it. You get pneumonia, you take an antibiotic. So we’ve done a good job on what we call the physicalist level for acute illness. But then there’s something called chronic illness diabetes type II, inflammation, cancer, heart disease, autoimmune illness, accelerated aging, propensity to infections, and we haven’t done a good job there.

Because what we are realizing right now that only 5% of disease-related gene mutations are fully penetrant, which means they guarantee the disease. 95% of gene mutations that cause illness are related to lifestyle. Sleep, managing stress, and whether you mediate or not, you exercise or not, maybe you do yoga or not, breathing techniques, the quality of your emotions, nutrition, personal relationships, social interactions, environment, connection with nature influence your gene activity. We call it epigenetics.

Let’s say you got rid of all chronic illness and acute illness. Would humans still suffer? And the answer is yes because unlike other species, we have something, which is actually quite bizarre, it’s called existential suffering.

We wonder why we exist. We wonder why we get old and can we prevent that? We wonder why we get infirm and lose our memories as we get old. Can we prevent that? But we also are afraid of death. Can we prevent that? And the answer is biological death is based on a false premise, which is you are your biology. And you are your body and your mind. You are not your body, you are not your mind, you are not the experience of the world.

You are the consciousness in which all this experience occurs. To observe a thought is to know that you are not a thought. To observe an emotion is to know that you are not the emotion. To observe the body is to know that you are not this bundle of sensations and perceptions.

So who are you? What is it that knows a thought? What is it that knows a perception, the color red? Is there a color red anywhere in the physical universe, or is it just an experience? I guarantee you no scientist can tell you that the color red exists as a physical entity in the universe. It’s an experience in human consciousness, not in the consciousness of a bat who doesn’t see colors but experiences the echo of ultrasound. So what is the color red to a bat?

When you realize that everything you thought was real is not real, when you also realize that who you think you are is not real, or when you realize that all your name, your form, and everything you see is provisional to things happen to some people they have immediate, what we could only metaphorically call, the dark night of the soul. They go into a deep depression because everything they thought was real is no longer real, including their own name, form, body, and mind. Some people cross that threshold and discover Nirvana or enlightenment. And they say, “Wow, I thought I was squeezed into the volume of a body in the span of a lifetime, but I’m a timeless being that can morph myself into any experience including the human experience, which is amazing.

But the human experience is also that which causes existential depression. So the causes of human suffering, since you brought it up, are brought up are brought up in Eastern wisdom traditions as, number one, you suffer because you don’t know who you are. You confuse yourself with your body, mind, experience.

Number two, you grasp and cling at experiences which are evanescent and transitory and dream-like. You say, what happened to your childhood? It’s over. What happened to yesterday? It’s over. What happened to five minutes ago? It’s over. What happens to these words by the time you hear them? They don’t exist. So Wittgenstein, the German philosopher said, “We are asleep, our life is a dream, but once in a while we wake up enough to know that we are dreaming.”

So what do you wake up to when you cross this threshold? You wake up to your true self, which is not body or mind but the awareness in which that experience is happening. So grasping and clinging at a dream is the second cause of human suffering.

The third is being afraid of anything that’s unpleasant. Pain, abandonment, being treated by someone not respectfully. So there’s a version to certain experiences. Third cause of suffering.

Fourth is identifying, which is related to your ego identity. And fifth is the fear of death. Now they’re all connected. They’re all the same fear and they are not knowing who you are. This is the biggest question that humans, or everybody should be asking. Who am I? What am I?

Am I the changing experience of this body, which is a perceptual activity. Am I the experience of the changing mind or the changing personality? But then you don’t have the same personality when you were a kid or maybe even 10 years ago. What is it at the basis of this? When you start that reflective self-inquiry, ask yourself: Who am I? What do I want? What is my purpose? What am I grateful for? Going to the stillness of the meditation you have what wisdom traditions have called revelation. Revealed truth.

Now, that sounds very grand. I would say just call it insight. Meditation, mindfulness, awareness of body, awareness of mind, awareness of mental space. Awareness of the web of relationship, awareness of that which we call the universe. It leads you, ultimately, to the awareness of awareness. And when you discover that, that’s nirvana.

Is there anything behind consciousness? No. Now, everyday experience is modified consciousness. So right now what you’re experiencing is what we call the waking state of consciousness, okay. What do you mean by that? The awareness that I’m aware? No, the awareness that is experiencing a physical body and the physical world with eyes open is called waking state of consciousness. Okay. So awareness is modifying itself every time you open your eyes into this experience, right? And you call it the physical world. Now if you close your eyes, you have another state of consciousness where you don’t actually experience the physical world. You experience sensations, images, thoughts, emotions, stories. It’s like a dream.

As soon as you close your eyes, you’re experiencing, you might call it daydreaming. But there’s no difference between a daydream and what you dream at night. Now physical world has disappeared, there’s only a mental world. Then you go deeper at night, even the mental world disappears in what we call deep sleep. Now, that is the highest intelligence, by the way, because in deep sleep there’s unconscious processing going on, there’s creativity going on, there are correlations being made, there are toxins being removed, there’s a whole resetting of your memories and consolidation of that. So, in deep sleep, even though there’s no experience of a physical or a mental world, it’s a very intelligent, highly, highly correlated state in which unconscious processing is occurring.

Get rid of the idea that the world is physical. What we call of the world as physical, even your physical body, is a perceptual activity. And that perceptual activity for you and me is a human perceptual activity through human consciousness, not through bat consciousness, not through mosquito consciousness, not through plant consciousness. Go beyond that.

There’s only one consciousness that is differentiating. Undifferentiated consciousness differentiating into these different species of consciousness that form a matrix of conscious beings that are collectively projecting this universe.

If I ask you what is this? You’d say it’s a cup, right? Well, if you were a baby, you wouldn’t know this is a cup, this is a shape, this is a color, this is a form, this is sensation. This is a taste and it’s noise. The rest is a story. It’s a human story we created, just like we created money or Wall Street or nation states, or colonial empires. And we take that for reality. So when you have time to be still, question your habitual uncertainties, you’ll realize that, actually, we know nothing. Nothing!

Everything we know is made up. It’s a human construct and once we are embedded in that human concept, we call it reality.

We don’t question what is the source of this experience? So taking retreats, practicing mindful awareness of body, of mind, of mental space of the web of relationship, the mystery of existence, it takes you slowly, deeper to your true self. As Rumi said, “God’s language is silence, everything else is poor translation.”

In this great speech with Tom Bilyeu, Jason Silva talks about how we can get out of our heads and create a life full of wonder.

This Is How You Create A Life That Is WONDER-FULL – Jason Silva – TRANSCRIPT

For me the most healing insight, which I think is the solution to so many of our anguishes and agonies is to just be present

The diseases of mental distress… too much anxiety and depression are diseases of getting too caught up in our own narrative about who we are and what we’re doing here and are we successful enough or no, we’re not successful enough.

Becoming overly identified with the voice in your head.

Now those of us that are highly driven, highly caught up in our own thoughts can create a kind of wall between us and the world.

It’s like the ego is so obsessed with scaling and or climbing and or succeeding that the self obsession becomes like a storm in your head.

You’re never good enough or you’re anxious, you’re going to fail. 
You’re comparing yourself to others and then eventually those thoughts become patterns that trap you.

What is actually needed then for healing is regular encounters with experiences that hurl you into the flow of a present that is wonder full… WONDER-FULL.

It’s the experiences that smack you over the face and shake the snow globe shaking the snow globe resets the system.
It’s the unexpected feeling of like being struck by something so magnificent that it takes your breath away.

I need to curate my life around regular encounters with experiences that quiet the inner chatter, enough that allow me to merge with my environment, become enmeshed with visceral art, travel, encounters with novelty.
Anything that radically de-centres you.

I’m talking about losing track of your own boundaries. Feeling like, wow, being hung upside down for a while, like that was amazing because I got to behold the miracles that we live next to often and ignore, and the stillness or the meditative trance can be very healing because when the senses heightened, deeply engaged, stakes are high.

All of those obsessive, intrusive thoughts aren’t there.

Engaged with a world that’s full of mystery. 
Evoke and experience of radical presence and absolute ecstatic surrender.

In this important conversation with Tom Bilyeu, Jason Silva speaks about comparison and the importance of valuing yourself in this social media world we live in.

Comparison Is Only Healthy If It Inspires You To Do Better – Jason Silva – TRANSCRIPT

Isn’t it interesting how our sense of self can get agitated when we witness something that I guess reflects or mirrors something within ourselves that we feel like we want to let out, but we haven’t been able to yet.

It’s a trapping of the ego when the fact that someone else shines feels like it impedes upon our own capacity to shine.

It’s almost like we come from a scarcity mindset and we think that there is no room for two people to shine.

Like, well, that guy’s excellence somehow diminishes the space in which I can stand.

And I’ve experienced that as well. Like I’ve experienced that feeling. I know that disquiet, you know, it’s somehow the existence of another negates my own.

But they can’t be true. It’s not true. That is a trapping of the ego, that is also a trapping of comparison.

I think comparison is only healthy if it inspires you to want to do better. Not if it makes you vain and bitter.

Which it can do to all of us.

The people that you’re around, they’re going to influence you in a terrifying way because you’re just around them. So you don’t think to look beyond them. They’re the people that you encounter. And this is why I think people have to be so careful with who they follow online, how they cultivate their online world, because it used to be you couldn’t get too freaked out because there were only so many like incredible people around you.

But now it’s like you can curate this feed of people who are extraordinary at the very thing that you want to be extraordinary at. They are better than you. They’re further ahead and you can convince yourself
that you can’t get there.

And it becomes like this… where you’re in this weird thing where you’re inspired by them, but like you said, it’s also diminishing their sense of self.

It’s very interesting, right? Because they say, you know, on a small scale you become the people that you hang out with because of the mutual mental mirroring that occurs when you’re interface with other humans.

You can’t help, the process of osmosis by which you mirror and, or acquire the qualities of that what you surround yourself with, including the people you surround yourself with. But what can also happen is you can compare yourself to the people that you’re around.

But then what happens now with people like us, like you were saying, okay, so now you’re not surrounded necessarily just by the physical people that are around you,
which is again, as a constraint, limited size.

Now you’re also surrounded by the feeds you follow. You’re surrounded by the Instagrammers that you follow. And so every time you scroll, you become what you behold, but you also compare yourself with,
and it can give you the illusion that the world and the marketplace is smaller than it actually is.

And so it’s like, that guy’s got a million followers. he’s eclipsing my capacity to have a voice. Or that guy’s got 500 million likes. He somehow eclipsing the integrity of the work I’m putting out. But that’s also an illusion.

Reprogram Your Subconscious Negative Beliefs With These Teachings

Speaker: KAMBIZ NAFICY
Author: Riding The Waves of Life

Transcript: Reprogram Your Subconscious Negative Beliefs With These Teachings

Hello, I’m Kambiz Naficy and I welcome you to this talk that I’m very passionate about. It’s a talk about the power of beliefs.

Why was I passionate about doing this video for you? Because early on, on my own journey of healing I realized that my beliefs where controlling more than 90% of the outcomes in my life.

Our beliefs are like invisible compasses and they either lead us to desirable results or undesirable results.

The undesirable results come from negativities and self limiting ideas that are well hidden in our subconscious mind. What we don’t see harms us most.

After I finished my own journey of healing with techniques that I’ll be discussing in this video, I moved on to three continents and I worked with more than 10,000 people. Transforming lives with these techniques. The techniques that I use and will outline in this video have to do with Kriya Yoga, breathing meditation that relaxes your brain waves so that the cave of the subconscious opens up to you, allowing you to go in there and replace negativities.

The other techniques are techniques that convince the subconscious to give up its comfort zone or old negativities so you can go in and plant new ideas.

What’s a belief anyways? A belief is something that you hold to be true but what you hold to be true may have nothing to do with the other reality of this moment.

If you’re sitting under a tree and off to the right here there’s a branch hanging down and through peripheral vision you mistake that branch to be a snake, you can give yourself a vile attack of fear.

Imagine, almost 8.5 billion people walking in their heads on earth, each mind is sometimes envisioning worrisome outcomes that will never pan out to be the way you’re imagining. And you go back to kindergarten, you tell me how many of your worries to date have panned out to be the way you imagined them?

Our beliefs are like lenses, that cover up our eyeballs. We actually experience everything that’s before us after those incidents pass through the filter of our beliefs.

Imagine we take a hypochondriac, somebody who’s constantly worried about illness, we take this person to the Grand Canyon she gets out of the car and she sees this scenery of the Grand Canyon. But if she has a small headache that small headache and the worries about the headache are superimposing themselves on the beauty of the Grand Canyon.

What I’m saying is we all see what we want to see. I remember a lady student of mine and she said when she was four months pregnant she would walk into town and the only thing she would notice were other pregnant women. We see what we want to see.

There’s a deeper layer to this talk about beliefs and that is the quantum world. The ancient Yogi’s and modern quantum physicists say that who we call our creator is an energy field of consciousness. In other words, space is not a vacuum, space is not empty. All of our planet is enveloped by a net of consciousness and your mind is a transmitting station, constantly transmitting your recurring thoughts and oldest beliefs up to the God force. This creative force takes on your beliefs and ricochets them back into your life as incidents and life results that match your own beliefs. What I’m saying is we’re all playing solitaire. Our minds are co-partnering with the God force.

We are impacting the quantum force and creating incidents and life results, they are self-fulfilling prophecies that match our own beliefs.

How do we create our beliefs anyways? I’m going to take you through six steps. Here is how beliefs are created.

Number one, an incident happens, right after the incident happens you’ve come up with a perception of what happened. You interpret what happened.

When you repeat that interpretation, step two, you create a core belief. After you repeat an interpretation several times you have a core belief. The core belief is now a set of eyeglasses right in front of your eyeballs. So you’re seeing life through your own core beliefs. Your core beliefs then start to drive your actions, that’s the fourth step. And your actions drive your life results and predictable actions and predictable results create your self-fulfilling prophecy.

Take a look at this diagram, you see how this is beliefs are created.

On the diagram you’ll see that an incident occurs, an event. You then form a perception of what happened, you interpret it. After you recite that perception several hundred times that becomes a core belief. The core belief sits in front of your eyeballs and it becomes the way you view life. Your core beliefs then drive your actions which become predictable. Your predictable actions create predictable results and predictable results finally get you to your self-fulfilling prophecy. Didn’t I tell you life was like this?

I’ve referred to a subconscious mind, let me now describe in more detail to you what the subconscious is.

Your subconscious mind is a reservoir of all of your oldest emotions, your most deeply rooted beliefs. By the time you’re seven to nine years old your most undeniable truths, unquestionable truths have already been programmed into your subconscious which acts like a computer.

Its unquestionable truths are things like did mom and dad love me? Am I lovable? Do I deserve money and comfort? Am I able to attract romance? Am I good in sports et cetera, et cetera.

By the time these unquestionable truths are hardwired into the computer of your subconscious you now have what we call a comfort zone. A comfort zone are beliefs, old beliefs, unquestionable beliefs that you have relaxed into. And if something happens out there it doesn’t neatly fit in to your box of beliefs, you’re either going to not see this opportunity or you’re going to sabotage yourself, distort that reality so it fits neatly within your box of unquestionable truths.

Take the example of a salesman. If there’s a salesman out there who can imagine his biggest commission to be $7000 and then yesterday he comes upon a sales opportunity that can offer a $70 000 commission. He’s gonna do one of two things. Number one, he may not see that opportunity. Number two, he may sabotage himself the night before a very important sales meeting and he’ll ruin that sales opportunity so that his income level brings him back to the expected maximum $7000 commission. However, if your subconscious mind which is in touch with the quantum creative force, if your subconscious mind begins to except the idea that you as the salesman deserve to have much larger commissions and a lot of comfort in your life then your subconscious mind contacts the quantum force, arranges opportunities and situations where you can go forward with a much larger deal and make your $70 000 commission.

You have both a creative mind and a subconscious mind. Your creative mind is your intellectual mind, your intellectual mind is in charge of analysis, planning, decision making, scheduling and prompting you into action.

Let’s imagine that you want to take some Spanish language classes. Your intellectual mind looks up the community college course catalog, schedules your two classes per week, goes to the registrar, writes out the cheque and gets you into that classroom. Your subconscious mind is just a habit mind, it’s a machine. And in that Spanish class your subconscious mind is just absorbing repetitive exercises in vocabulary and grammar.

So a year later when you’re speaking Spanish, it’s not your intellectual mind that’s allowing you to speak Spanish, you’re digging into your subconscious mind and that subconscious mind has memorized through repetition, repetition, repetition, vocabulary, grammar and the Spanish language. Same thing with playing the piano. When you’re playing Beethoven on the piano your intellectual mind is not thinking of which keys to press, your subconscious mind has memorized through repetition which keys to press.

Your subconscious mind can process something like four million pieces of information per second whereas your intellectual mind can only absorb and process four pieces of information per second.

This tells us that your subconscious mind is much, much more powerful. And if you wanna get something major done in your life you better learn how to get the cooperation of your subconscious mind to get things done. In a moment I will tell you how to speak the language of the subconscious so you can get it to cooperate.

Okay, so here’s how we’re going to reprogram negativity in the subconscious mind. We’re gonna learn the language that the subconscious understands so you can get in there, pluck out negativities and plant empowering ideas instead.

Number one, you must relax your brain. I can teach you Kriya Yoga breathing meditation, it’s a form of breathing and after about 2.4 minutes of this breathing your brain waves relax. Your brain goes from the very busy beta waves which is your rational thinking to the theta waves. Theta waves are very relaxed brain waves that represent the state of deep sleep or deep meditation.

After you’ve done that breathing you’re now ready for the second step for reprogramming. The second step is we must go into the subconscious mind that is now open through relaxing breath and we start to identify a liar that lives in your subconscious mind.

There is a liar living in each mind, this liar gives you false advice like I’m not worthwhile, nobody in my family has ever made big money, I can never lose this weight, beyond the age of 60 I’m going downhill, et cetera, et cetera. So once we identify the liar we then go to the third step of going into the subconscious computer and reprogramming it. Because remember, we’ve relaxed the brain waves, the subconscious cave has opened, we have identified the liar, now with that open subconscious mind we go in there and we do reprogramming.

How do we reprogram the subconscious mind? Number one, the subconscious understands pictures better than sentences. So visualization, I want you too visualize the desirable outcome that you want. Use your five senses in the visualization.

Smell the outcome that you want, touch the outcome that you want, taste the desirable outcome that you want. A visualization is very real employing your five senses. Another technique for reprogramming, these are called affirmations. These are short, repetitive sentences in the present tense. Everyday I am becoming healthier, wealthier and happier. Everyday I’m becoming healthier, wealthier, happier. You keep repeating that because the subconscious understands repetition.

These affirmative sentences will be memorized, understood and accepted. Next, invoke the emotion as if you have already arrived at that desirable place in life. For example, if you’re single and you’re desiring a very beautiful loving relationship, you must close your eyes and invoke the emotion of being in the embrace of somebody who loves you unconditionally, who’ll stand by your side lifelong. So invoking emotions is a language that the subconscious mind understands.

Finally, repetition, repetition, repetition. The main thing that the subconscious habit mind understands is repetition. The more you repeat the more it memorizes. Once it memorizes and accepts the reality that you want, it will turn everything upside down, it will contact the quantum force and it will bring about incidences and events that will enable you to get to the place that you want.

Transcript:

What I love about researching the brain and our biology is that it has allowed me to present the latest findings of what’s humanly possible to millions of people around the world.

I’ve learned that we’re not hardwired to be a certain way for the rest of our lives, and we’re not doomed by our genes. In fact, we are marvels of change.

My job as a doctor for 31 years, as well a lecturer, author and researcher, is to not just talk about what is possible but to show you the latest data that supports my work, that your thoughts can have an effect on your brain, your body and your life.

This is a time in history where it’s not enough to know. This is a time in history to know how. I’m Dr. Joe Dispenza, and I’m going to show you how to rewire your brain. I want to start off by asking you a strange question.

What does it mean to you to be supernatural?

To me, being supernatural is to be able to change your body by thought alone. To say it another way, it means being greater than your body.

Being supernatural also means overcoming challenges and conditions in your outdoor environment that most people would not be able to accomplish. In addition, being supernatural would also mean to be able to change some predictable future destiny or event, that is, to be greater than time.

Now, is this something that’s only reserved for ancient yogis, mystical masters and superheroes? Is it fantasy, or is there medical proof that each human being has the potential to heal themselves and in a sense, to become supernatural?

In 1986, I had my own personal experience that forever changed my life. A serious injury forced me to meld together everything I knew from my scientific mind and my training to a greater level of understanding about the nature of reality and what is possible. Much of what I discovered was not found in conventional textbooks and mainstream science. In fact, I had to find answers for my own personal healing by delving into areas of science that point the finger at possibility. I want to invite you into a journey and a scientific study of your mind, your heart and your body, with a series called Rewired. So, let’s start with some basics about the brain that you should know right from the very start. I want to offer you a new way of concepting your brain. Think of your brain as three brains in one.

You literally have three brains that allow you to go from thinking, to doing, to being. So, let’s start off with your first brain, called your neocortex. Your neocortex is the seat of your conscious mind. It’s the largest and most evolved in human beings and dolphins. This is the part of your brain that plugs you in to three-dimensional reality.

It’s divided into different regions and different areas. So, the front of the brain, called the forebrain, makes up 40% of your entire brain. It’s the largest in human beings, and it’s what separates us from all other species. The next closest species, gibbons and chimpanzees, their frontal lobe is about 14 to 17%. dogs about 7%, in cats about 3%.

Now, the frontal lobe is been known to be called the area of executive function. But think of the frontal lobe as the CEO of the brain or the symphony leader. The frontal lobe allows us to decide on action, to focus our concentration, to invent, to speculate, to have intention or attention. It’s the area of our brain that restrains our emotional reactions, or begins to speculate new possibilities. So, think of your frontal lobe as the seat of your conscience or your creative center.

Watch it all at GAIA:

Now, the rest of the brain is divided up into geography as well, for example, the back of your brain, called the occipital lobe or the visual cortex, is where you process sight or spatial orientation.

There’s strips in areas of your brain that allow you to feel certain things with your body, or to invoke or begin to initiate motor function or movement. There are areas of the brain that allow you to make long-term memories, and to begin to distinguish between self and non-self. But the entire brain is mapped geographically, and think of that first brain as that part of the brain that allows you to learn new things and to have a new experience. So then, every time you learn something new, you make new connections in your brain.

Learning is forging new synaptic connections. In some of the latest research in neuroscience, it says that one hour of focused concentration on one concept or idea literally doubles the number of connections in your brain, literally produces physical evidence as a result of your interaction in the environment. So then, all of this philosophy, this intellectual data, this theory, this knowledge, is stored in that neocortex called your thinking brain.

Now, the next step is to take that knowledge, that philosophy, and to begin to apply it, to personalize it, to demonstrate, to initiate that knowledge in some way. And if you do this properly and you can get your behaviors to match your intentions, you can get actions equal to your thoughts, you can get your mind and body working together, you’re going to have a new experience.

Now, when you’re in the midst of an experience, all of your five senses plug you into the environment, and as all of that sensory information rushes back to your brain, jungles of neurons begin to organize themselves into patterns and networks. So then, experience then enriches the philosophical circuits in your brain, and when those neurons begin to form into networks, the second brain called the limbic brain, the emotional brain, the chemical brain, the mammalian brain begins to make a chemical, and that chemical is called a feeling or an emotion.

So the moments you feel unlimited, the moment you feel abundant, the moment you feel free from any experience, now you are teaching your body chemically to understand what your mind has intellectually understood.

So we could say that knowledge is for the mind and experience is for the body. And in that moment, you are embodying the truth of that philosophy. And because there’s new information coming in from the environment, you’re literally beginning to change your genetic destiny by signaling new genes in new ways. And it is the limbic brain or the chemical brain that begins to manufacture those chemicals, so that your body begins to become chemically instructed to understand what your mind has intellectually understood. Now, the limbic brain also has some other functions. It is the seat of your autonomic nervous system. And think of your autonomic nervous system as your automatic nervous system. This is the part of the brain that subconsciously regulates blood sugar levels, hormone levels, temperature, respiration, heart rate, this is the part of the brain that’s giving us life automatically.

And so then, when you begin to manufacture that chemical from an experience, the emotional signature from that experience begins to change your body in some way. If you’ve been able to create that experience once, you should be able to recreate it again. And if you’re able to recreate any experience over and over again, you are going to begin to neurochemically condition your mind and body to begin to work as one. And if you’ve done something so many times that your body now knows how to do it as well as your mind, now it’s innate in you, it’s second nature, it’s easy, it’s automatic, it’s familiar. In fact, you’ve done it so many times that you no longer have to consciously think about it, so that it begins to become a subconscious program.
