Exploring The Connection Between Physical Health and Spiritual Awakening with Brian Keane (The Jay Campbell Podcast) 03/07/2025

Exploring The Connection Between Physical Health and Spiritual Awakening with Brian Keane (The Jay Campbell Podcast) A beautiful conversation with Jay Campbell on his podcast. As the title suggests, this is a little different to normal; so hopefully you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it. You can subscribe to Jay's show here. _____________________________________________________ In this episode, Jay interviews Brian Keane, an online fitness coach and certified nutritionist who has written three bestselling books, launched a #1 ranked podcast, and run ultramarathons in the world’s most grueling locations, including the Saharan desert and Arctic. They cover a variety of topics related to the connection between physical health and one’s ability to elevate their consciousness. Their conversation ranges from the dangers of hyper-palatable processed foods to the difference between emotional eating and consumption driven by true physiological need. Tune in if you want to discover how to (finally) break free from a cycle of unhealthy habits or if you want to gain a better understanding of how optimizing your physical fitness can help you deepen your spiritual practice and raise your vibration. “I think there's a crossover with fitness and spirituality. Everything is difficult in the beginning, messy in the middle, and beautiful at the end.” – Brian Keane What You'll Learn From This Episode: • The Dangers Of Hyper-Palatable, Processed Foods – Modern food is engineered to be addictive and unhealthy. Learn how food scientists are creating products that promote overeating, and how marketers are making them an ever-present temptation. • Social & Familial Influences On Diet – Cultural “norms” can also lead to unhealthy eating habits, and sometimes it’s those closest to us who are holding us back. Learn how to navigate tricky situations and make healthier food choices, no matter what. • Physical Health As A Foundation For Spirituality – A healthy physical body is essential for spiritual growth. You can’t effectively pursue spirituality when you’re physically unwell, so use physical fitness as a gateway to deeper spiritual experiences. • The Role Of Self-love In Health – Social media lures many people into a comparison trap, which can prevent them from achieving their full potential. Engage in a healthier discourse with your inner self, and watch your physical and spiritual growth take off. • Personal Experiences With Plant-Based Medicine – Jay and Brian both share personal stories of using plant-based medicine to deal with anxiety and trauma and unlock a more balanced and connected version of themselves. Key Moments In This Conversation 00:01:24 – Brian’s thoughts on the outlook for humanity 00:10:24 – How people fall prey to an unhealthy eating spiral 00:22:29 – Why you can’t afford NOT to eat quality food 00:27:29 – Why a lack of self love and trust results in anxiety 00:31:55 – Your spirit can’t elevate if your physical vessel is weak 00:41:37 – How your thoughts/actions interact with the universe 00:47:03 – Brian’s “Dark night of the soul” story 00:56:20 – Personal experiences with plant-based medicine 01:02:43 – Closing thoughts and Brian’s resources /episode/index/show/briankeanefitness/id/34879755

#523: World Record Holder Matt Dawson on Using Physical Challenges To Deal With Mental Health, The Power of Perspective and Why Surrender is the Highest Form of Strength! 02/10/2025

#523: World Record Holder Matt Dawson on Using Physical Challenges To Deal With Mental Health, The Power of Perspective and Why Surrender is the Highest Form of Strength! Matt Dawson is a six-time world-record-holding endurance and adventure athlete who, within a twelve-month period, climbed the highest peak on every continent, skied to the South Pole, trekked solo and unsupported across the Mojave Desert and Death Valley, and rowed across the Atlantic Ocean. Performing in the planet’s harshest environments, he learned that his greatest obstacles don’t originate in the outside world, but within himself. That life doesn’t have to be a relentless battle against his deepest fears and shortcomings. His new book, Strength In Surrender beckons you to embrace a different path and reveals a harrowing truth: one of the greatest acts of courage is surrender. Surrender isn’t giving in, giving up, or going along, but rather choosing to face and release our deepest fears in order to identify more productive ways of meeting our needs. It's a powerful, necessary step to living a life of greater purpose. Takeaways · Physical challenges can help in reconnecting with oneself. · Disconnection is a common issue in today's society. · Facing fears is essential for emotional release. · Reality is not as concrete as we believe it to be. · We have the power to shape our own reality. · Living with purpose is crucial for fulfilment. · Emotional pain can lead to significant breakthroughs. · The journey to finding purpose can take time. · Engaging in physical challenges can foster personal growth. Living a life of purpose can significantly improve mental health.. · Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. · No one is truly alone in their struggles; many share similar pains. · Embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal growth. · Focusing on the process rather than just the outcome is crucial. · Surrendering to the unknown can lead to new opportunities for growth. · Personal evolution is about learning to trust oneself and others.
