83: 11 Simple Ways To Form Rock Solid Habits And Transform Your Life 05/08/2023

83: 11 Simple Ways To Form Rock Solid Habits And Transform Your Life In today's podcast, Drew Canole shares 11 profound ways to form rock solid habits and transform your life into anything you want it to be. 1. Start small: When forming new habits, it's important to start with small, manageable steps. For example, if you're trying to improve your physical health, starting with just a few steps or walking a short distance each day can be a great way to build momentum and stay motivated. The same can be applied to other areas of life, such as drinking more water or practicing gratitude. By starting with small steps, you can build up to bigger changes over time. 2. Track your progress: Keeping track of your progress can be a great way to stay motivated and see the progress you're making. Whether it's tracking the number of steps you take each day or the number of pages you read in a book, tracking your progress can give you a sense of accomplishment and encourage you to keep going. 3. Make your habit harder to break: Setting reminders and removing temptations can make it easier to stick to new habits. For example, setting out your gym clothes the night before or removing junk food from your home can help you stay on track. Additionally, reminding yourself of your "why" - the reason you started the habit in the first place - can help you stay motivated when things get tough. 4. Celebrate small successes: Celebrating small successes can help keep you motivated and make the habit more enjoyable. Whether it's treating yourself to a spa day or simply taking a moment to acknowledge your progress, celebrating small successes can help you stay on track and build momentum. 5. Establish rituals and routines: Establishing rituals and routines can help you build habits more easily. For example, journaling in the morning, getting outside for some sun, or playing an instrument at the same time each day can help you build habits that become a natural part of your routine. 6. Visualize it: Visualizing your success can help you stay motivated and focused on your goals. Creating a mental picture of what success looks like can help you stay motivated and keep moving forward, even when things get tough. 7. Be consistent and patient: Building habits takes time, so it's important to be patient and consistent. Remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint, and that it's okay to take things slow and steady. 8. Seek support from others: Surrounding yourself with supportive people can make it easier to build new habits. Whether it's finding a coach or mentor or simply sharing your goals with a friend or loved one, having support and encouragement can make a big difference in staying on track. 9. Take breaks when needed: It's important to take breaks and avoid burnout when building new habits. Pushing yourself too hard can lead to exhaustion and make it harder to stick to your goals over time. Remember to take care of yourself and find balance in your life. 10. Unplug from tech once a week: Taking a break from technology can be a great way to recharge and focus on yourself. Whether it's taking a day off from social media or unplugging from email for a day, finding time to disconnect can be an important part of building healthy habits. 11. Have a weekly check-in: Having a regular check-in with a partner, friend, or mentor can help keep you accountable and on track. Whether it's a business or health check-in, having someone to hold you accountable and offer support can make it easier to stay motivated and achieve your goals.

82: Discover Your Inner Artist: 10 Easy Techniques to Unlock Your Creative Side 05/01/2023

82: Discover Your Inner Artist: 10 Easy Techniques to Unlock Your Creative Side In today's show, Drew Canole discusses how to increase creativity and connect with oneself and a higher power, leading to relaxation, motivation, and healing. He emphasizes the importance of reframing situations to put oneself in a state of elation and encourages seeing the world through the eyes of wonder to feel more connected, make wiser decisions, and experience more joy. Drew provides ten ways to achieve this state of wonder and awe. First, he suggests waking up and appreciating the world around youself, seeing with "wow" goggles, and meditating or praying all day long. Second, he recommends getting uncomfortable and trying something new, such as buying a ticket to a random destination at the airport. Third, he advises seeking out inspiring people who make one uncomfortable, humbling oneself, sparking conversations with strangers, and creating a vision board. Fourth, Drew highlights the power of music, finding inspiring music that impacts emotions, and drops one into the heart. They say music soothes even the savage beast, and although this sounds like a no-brainer, it really can make a huge difference in your life. Choose the soundtrack of your life. Don't let it be cars honking, words of complaining coworkers, or worse, the news! Fifth, he recommends reading books and viewing oneself as a student to learn something new every day. Sixth, Drew suggests taking time off from technology, spending time in nature, and doing breath-work to tap into what is real. Seventh, he encourages following one's dreams and avoiding being a cookie-cutter cog in the matrix for someone else. Eighth, Drew emphasizes the importance of learning something new every day, studying things one never understood, and opening up to AI. Ninth, he suggests taking a trip, breaking out of a routine, and connecting with nature. Lastly, Drew advises breaking out of a groundhog day mentality and seeing through the eyes of wonder. Throughout the podcast, Drew highlights the benefits of reframing one's perspective, practicing gratitude, and approaching life with a sense of wonder. By following these ten steps, he believes that one can achieve a more fulfilling, creative, and connected life.

81: The Secret Mental Health Benefits Of Exercise & The Power Of Visualization 04/24/2023

81: The Secret Mental Health Benefits Of Exercise & The Power Of Visualization In today's podcast, Drew emphasizes the importance of exercise for mental health, and how physical activity can help regulate mood and alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Drew explains that exercising releases serotonin and dopamine, two essential neurochemicals that help regulate mood, and that a simple 30-minute exercise routine can boost serotonin levels by up to 80%. He recommends low-intensity cardio in Zone 2, which is an inclined walking pace that maintains an average heart rate of 115 beats per minute. Drew suggests that this form of exercise is excellent for mental health because it promotes a sense of accomplishment and well-being, which can translate into better decision-making in other aspects of life, such as work and relationships. Drew also stresses the importance of a vision board, which is a tool that can help people visualize their goals and stay motivated. He explains that vision boards can help people access their unconscious mind and tap into their innermost desires, which can be a powerful force for change. Drew shares his personal experience with a vision board, explaining that he didn't see any real results from his workouts until he started using a vision board to focus on his goals. In addition to exercise and visualization techniques, Drew also emphasizes the importance of mindfulness practices such as meditation, breath-work, and spending time in nature. He explains that these practices can help people stay focused on their goals, reduce stress and anxiety, and make better decisions about their health and well-being. Drew also recommends spending time with pets, as he believes that they can have a positive impact on our energetic body and help us connect with nature on a deeper level.

80: The Power Of Merciful Forgiveness, & 6 Ways To Stimulate The Parasympathetic Nervous System 04/17/2023

80: The Power Of Merciful Forgiveness, & 6 Ways To Stimulate The Parasympathetic Nervous System This episode is about forgiveness and the amazing gifts that open up to us when we "let go and let God." Drew shares his story of overcoming a traumatic childhood filled with abuse, drugs, and violence. Drews tells of his heartbreaking experience when his father burned him with cigarettes for not putting his shoes on fast enough, left him outside to sleep in the rain, and stabbed his sister in the eye with a fork. Despite the challenges he faced at such a young age, Drew managed to turn forgiveness into a superpower that has helped him heal and transform his life. Drew begins by explaining the psychological stages of forgiveness. He notes that the first step in forgiving someone is to acknowledge what they did and that it was wrong. The next step is to make the decision to forgive them, and then work on empathy by trying to understand why they did what they did. Drew suggests that sometimes people hurt others because they are themselves hurt, and that understanding this can help in the process of forgiveness. He emphasizes that forgiving someone does not mean justifying their actions or excusing them, but rather choosing to let go of the anger, sadness, and resentment associated with the pain. Drew explains that forgiveness can lead to special gifts and experiences, and shares a personal example: He used to have a recurring dream about a monster that was very scary. Eventually, he realized that the monster represented his abusive father. Once he forgave his father, the monster in his dreams became friendly and the nightmares ceased. Drew notes that trauma can be fuel for transformation, and that waking up during the dream was a one of the supernatural gifts. Drew also stresses the importance of forgiving oneself, especially for people who struggle with addiction or negative self-talk. He notes that we also need to forgive family members, and suggests that reaching out to them to apologize or to let forgive them can be very healing. The podcast episode provides scientific evidence for the benefits of forgiveness. Drew explains that forgiveness can reduce anxiety and cortisol, improve mental health and emotional wound healing, and even improve physical health by lowering blood pressure. He notes that forgiveness can also increase trust and optimism, and lead to longer life and positive emotions. To help activate the parasympathetic nervous system, Drew suggests a few exercises, including deep breathing, singing or humming, gargling water, cold therapy (such as cold showers or immersing your face in cold water), and using a chi machine or doing wall sits. Drew emphasizes that forgiveness can also increase our "I am safe vibes," which can lead to even more benefits. Overall, the podcast episode offers a powerful message about the transformative power of forgiveness, and provides practical exercises and scientific evidence to support the benefits of forgiveness.

I’m human. I always had good intentions.” - to whitewash any and all issues. 40.Blame reframing- Any issue brought to light is a result of you being hateful and unforgiving or “holding onto the past”. 41.There are “secrets” your parent expects to you keep 42.Money has always been hard to give but parent lives in style 43.They have friends they can outshine and cut down behind their backs, often other narcissists or simply supply 44.Wills and estates are used as bait and ransom to elicit behaviors 45.You have felt like a puppet often 46.Surprise punishments and groundings for kids are common when there are events that are inconvenient or parent doesn’t like the idea of you attending 47.Friends are criticized, you are great but your “crowd”, not so much 48.There is no lie too bold to tell and double down on 49.The overt narcissist will not allow any child to outshine them, they discourage or hamper advancement 50.The covert narcissist will passively aggressively insult or demean success and acheivement, “you are going to get a fat head” And finally, you will know it is all factual when they will acknowledge no actual errors, flaws or real genuine hurt they caused. They admit nothing. Everything is a misunderstanding. Yours. They will never humbly apologize. They will play hurt and the victim without end. You are a hateful accuser that can’t just let it go. They will run from the responsibility of the past and may even cut you off, lash out, send flying monkeys to indimidate you and make you appear crazy or the bully. They may sue you, cut you out of wills, and tell horrible and sometimes embarrassing true stories about your past. They will attempt to poison your relationships if they have access to your friends, your spouse or your children. Everone is a pawn and they will make any move to appear a flawless victim. At the center of all NPD’s is shame and cowardice. They are underdeveloped emotionally most likely as a result of aloneness and rejection at or around ages 3-5. There may be a genetic link to a parent with NPD. They are small stunted people filled with shame, self-loathing and rage. The only escape is walking away and grey rocking them. The sick mind of sociopaths, psychopaths and narcissists cannot obtain the rational observation that they are sick. It is an unacceptable hypothesis to them. They cannot self-diagnose or see it. It will garner smugness, laughter, egoism, rage and condescention should you bring it up. Expect them to run from the room, leave the table or hang up on you in anger. Confrontation about their ego will trigger a flight or fight response. They may bark once, but then they will run because they cannot help it. They are cowards who feel deep shame at their core. You can be assured their childish rage will have them plotting and working to destroy you in the shadows. It is not a choice for them. It is a reflex. The manipulations of a person with NPD are boundless and unique. If 30% or more of the above applies to your parent or relative there is a high likelihood they are diagnosable by a professional as having NPD. Only .5% of the population gets diagnosed due to avoidance. They will never go. Your only resolution is no contact. It will feel like a death to you. Narcissists only feed from empaths. Like emotional vampires. They suck life. They know they are doing it. They are 100% aware and they loathe themselves yet can’t stop. Thus they keep a busy schedule. Sitting and realistically reflecting is not an option. Accept that you are worth loving, that’s why they picked you. Accept that THEY can’t love you. That is unfortunately also why they picked you. Whatever you do, don’t hurt yourself. Secretly once outed their great hope is you do, and they get to prove you were crazy and unstable and gain a whole new supply of attention and sympathy from the other suckers. People with NPD must win at any cost. The only way to beat them, Is to go live a great life without them. One in a million will address their trauma that caused this but you as their source has a zero percent chance of making them see the light through their darkness. They are getting their light from you as the source. You must leave them in the dark as an act of love for yourself.

I had to do some cultivating of why I was winning and why I was losing. I had to do some soul searching. At the end of the day I realized my great loves in life are God, creation and art." Once we realize what we're here for and how we can use our gifts to truly help people, that's when more abundance returns our way. 4:16 "Time and space are related, and are also related to velocity... when you realize the sun is moving through the universe, we're moving really fast... what you really are in appears to be a universe, and it is, but it's also a huge clock." We can never go back in time, because the past is also in a different place. We must always be looking forward. 6:50 "Let's talk about how time travel would really work if you had to go through time and space... in order to travel through time you need to become invisible to the universe." 11:01 "What remote viewing is, is essentially being able to close your eyes and visualize another time and space continuum. " No one is more psychic than anyone else and everyone has the ability to let go of their restraints and see what may not have happened yet. 16:32 "We come here complete. We don't come here like a bicycle with three parts missing." Instead of spending so much time and energy trying to become something else, we can fulfill our true potential by finding out who we really are. 20:00 "You're not only adding quality days to their lives right now... You're also making their lives longer and healthier and to those people around them." Selling a great product or idea is just persuading someone to improve their life. 21:50 "I had five successes and five failures. The stuff that worked was good for other people." 22:28 "When you can have thousands of ambassadors for you, that' much more powerful than the greatest media campaign or ad spend that you have." 25:03 " I think we're getting to a place where as people we can design our own lives, and feel like we have some autonomy in the direction we go." 28:55 "You can sell people... even and idea, if you ask three questions and if you ask the questions in the right order." The first question touches their hopes or their fears. 29:40 "The second question is a hint at innovation." We reveal a breakthrough or provoke curiosity with this question. 30:14 "The third question tells them there's an offer for it." This is when we ask them if they're curious about the solution. After they've said yes to these questions, now you just address their objections. 33:45 "Who are the three folks that you strongly admire, and the character traits of those guys or gals?" 38:30 "If you get these value-centered questions up front with people, not only are they telling you who they are, they're signing up to be that person." references: ronlynchmarketing.com [email protected] Follow Drew: @Twitter https://twitter.com/drewcanole @Instagram https://www.instagram.com/drewcanole/ @Facebook https://www.facebook.com/people/Drew-Canole/100044261357988/ Visit and get 15% off your next order! /episode/index/show/drewandyou/id/21160991

It's not about you anymore. 8:33 "I was looking for love because I wanted something that I wasn't myself." How many times have we found ourselves chasing a type of person who we were envious of? Maybe we didn't truly have a connection with them but we we felt like they had something that we were missing. 13:02 "Sometimes God's will, in order to heal generational pain, we have to go into the fire a lot hotter than other people." Introspection is powerful. For some of us, it conjures up very intense emotions and traumatic memories. 17:08 "We are all being tested to go through this threshold right now because we have fallen asleep to how amazing and powerful we really are." The world is full of chaos and confusion right now, but maybe we've brought this upon ourselves. What's the lesson here? 22:55 "We are at this place of recognizing how divine and how infinite we are." The turbulence and confusion we're facing needs to be met with patience and understanding. 25:46 "Default mode network is the posterior cingulet cortex, the pfc and the amygdala. If we can use any tool we have to turn down the safety mechanism in our brain, then we won't be a victim." There are both physical and mental strategies we can use to reduce the 'knee-jerk' reaction our brain has to fear and anxiety in the world. 32:45 "What blocks us from keeping the promises we made to ourselves... it's worthiness." Many times we feel like we're not worthy of becoming that person who keeps commitments to themselves. 34:30 "In order to have faith, you have to have virtues, and if you don't have virtues, you don't know yourself."

There's so much going on inside of us. Our body is interacting with our habitat in ways most scientists will never understand. When you're feeling alone or lonely, rejoice in the space that you have to sit and listen to nature for a while. 10:33 "retrospection actually opens up dream time." Think back on your life. Don't give in to the negative thoughts, but focus on the positive ones. This is just a sliver in time, a window, between activities. Use this time to be grateful and gather learnings from your past. 12:55 "Reach out to somebody you haven't talked to in a while." Maybe this is a sign. Maybe this season of separation is a message to you, that you should reach out to someone in need who maybe you've forgotten about. 14:45 "Make the most out of your interactions." How can you ask more questions and REALLY listen? Millionaires talk a lot, but billionaires ask a lot of questions. 17:03 "Talk to other people about how you're feeling alone." Explore coping strategies together and don't be scared to ask someone for help. 20:46 "Get a pet." It's hard to argue with man's best friend. We evolved alongside each other to be friends. We're here for them and they're here for us. 22:26 "Loneliness is not permanent my friend. It could be something dietary, it could be in your gut." Alkalizing your body helps, cleaning up your diet, along with getting enough exercise and even doing that with friends. 23:25 "Loneliness can be turned into ALL one-ness. It can be turned into a relationship with God." The word "alone" is the state of being separate from "all-one." All-one-ness would be the antithesis of alone-ness, or loneliness, once we realize that we're not separated at all, but connected at the very source.

61: The Incredible Benefits Of Intermittent Fasting, BDNF & GABA with Dr. Mindy Pelze 10/25/2021

61: The Incredible Benefits Of Intermittent Fasting, BDNF & GABA with Dr. Mindy Pelze 02;15 "In the absence of food, the cells turn on themselves and they start to repair themselves and make themselves stronger." Intermittent fasting brings loads of benefits. One of them is autophagy. 3:39 "There's a secret to this. Mother nature has the answer. When we give our body time to heal, without being constantly bombarded..." We're often told to 'feed a cold' but in most cases, food actually distracts the immune system. There's a reason why ancients fasted. 4:35 "I like to think of BDNF as miracle grow... When we put miracle grow in our plants, they grow unusually beautiful and big." BDNF is a neuroprotein essential for memory and focus. 6:55 "If you use BFR bands and lift really heavy weights, the metabolites from the muscle breakdown go and create BDNF in the brain." BFR bands are a great way to increase the muscle 'failure' that causes the rebuilding of muscle. This also increases BDNF. 10:00 "It's our microbiome that controls our blood sugar levels." Each person may have a different habitat in their digestion that dictates how their body responds to hormonal changes. It's important to eat foods that improve gut health since it affects so many different aspects of our body's functions. 12:10 "We control two things in this world: Number one what we put in our mouth, number two what we put in our mind." 15:38 "The longer you go without food, your body is so beautifully designed, that it makes more ketones, it makes more bdnf, and when these two chemicals are going up, you're going to make more gaba." GABA relaxes the brain and staves off anxiety, depression, insomnia and other mood disorders. 24:38 "When you fast, you really change your microbiome, and what you break your fast with really makes a difference." 30:20 "Glutamate is going to make you operate more from the amygdala part of the brain. The amygdala is constantly scanning the environment to see if you're safe." 32:02 Three "P's" to incorporate into your diet are polyphenols, prebiotics, and probiotics. These are foods that will feed the microbiome. We also can't forget about amino acids. If you have a complete amino acid profile in your gut, that microbiome profile will flourish more than someone who has half.

58: Make Your Business A Spiritual Practice (Part 2) 0:48 "When you look at your business as a spiritual act, as something that you're blessed to do every single day, it takes the pressure off of you and it's one of the most rewarding things you can do." It truly is a gift to participate in the global transfer of energy. All goods, services and especially money are just energy. And each transaction is likened to a spiritual connection between you, your employees, and your customers. 1:25 "Your business partner is god." The sooner we stop letting our ego rule our business decisions, the sooner we'll realize that no matter WHAT you do for a living, it's God's work. It's divinely inspired. 4:09 "The problem is most people aren't enrolling that aspect of super-self, that connection to God." It's easy to get distracted by the numbers, the financials, the KPIs, etc. We can't let that happen. We've got to stay connected and aware of the importance of our duty here in this mission. Otherwise this is how many people burn out. They lose touch of the meaning. 4:45 "EGO is 'Edging God Out." Your business isn't about you or your talents. It's about fulfilling your destiny with Him and making that connection from one link to the next. 6:00 "every single person you do business with is not just a person but they're a human soul, and you are on the same journey with them walking home." We have to remember that we're all walking each other home. 7:43 "Money is just energy." Money stands for: My Own Natural Energy Yield. The more love I can put into my business, the more money will come back. It's all love being exchanged. Unconditional love doesn't expect anything in return. What if you just gave for the sake of giving? What if you set aside 10-20% like business & spiritual tithing to just giving back? 10:35 "When things get off track look at it from a metaphysical level. How do i have more presence in business, in my own life. What keeps resurfacing in this dream that i haven't addressed? What's coming up?" 11:39 "Staying connected to Spirit throughout business every day." What do i need to do to be more receptive to that innate source inside of me? When I do that, I get information that is just so perfect, so spot on. To get there, you can meditate more, shift your consciousness, clean up your temple and your diet. Far too many people disassociate themselves spiritually. We become limited mortal minds trapped in a prison. Keep tuning into that spiritual center 13:40 "It takes a lot of introspection to get to that place." Get some help from a fellow Jedi. It helps remove the blinders to chat with some mentors. It's so important to have a fellow mentor who can be there for you in this. 17:20 "There's no greater pleasure than helping another human being evolve their own soul." When you start seeing your business as a tool for transforming someone's life, you've found the key to loving your business and your own life.

57: Allow, Accept, & Let Go With Ivan Rados 10/11/2021

57: Allow, Accept, & Let Go With Ivan Rados 1:20 "The difference between me and everyone else is I'm not attached to my memories." So many of us were born into chaos. It could be dysfunctional families, oppressive governments or cultures. We need to make peace with that and recognize that we are all one. Our past is a gift because it lead us to look inward in the first place. 4:33 "So I created two realities. One reality is going into my own mind." After traumatic abuse, failure or heartbreak, some people give up. Others look inward, and find a way to escape. Still others, without escaping or hiding, embrace the reality that their situation is theirs to own and rejoice in. 8:45 "Real healing happened when I realized not to go away from my family, but to realize that they helped me to seek myself." 12:24 "We have a bunch of adolescent children disguised as adults, running our governments, running these huge corporations." Some people spend their whole lives running. Those who don't learn their lessons young will be banished to exacting their revenge on others, unfortunately. 14:03 "Out of awareness comes consciousness, because consciousness is the movement of awareness, because consciousness needs to express itself." 15:38 "The mind is nothing but the social consensus of reality." We could define reality as nothing else but a bunch of thoughts that we accept. It's difficult to step outside of our reality when we experience pain or suffering because of our biology, but its essential we see it this way and do our best to break the mental attachment we have to this perspective. 16:40 "Consciousness is the energy, brother. Not the thought of it, not the feel of it, but the knowing of it. Beyond my mind and my senses, I know. I'm alive, I can see, hear and think." The mind is the thought of it, which is the past. It's a structure created not only by you, but by other people in the shared energy. 17:56 "Consciousness is the energy. The mind is the frequency, and the thoughts are the vibration. The kind of vibration you vibrate, that's what kind of reality you create." 18:30 "The mind is not yours. It has never been yours. It is social. That social attachments we are not. That's separation. Separation brings suffering and suffering brings diseases." 21:07 "You have to change yourself. You have to change your perception of self. You have to include yourself in what's happening right now, but not to be attached to it." 25:18 "For a lot of people the illusion is so real, and they're so entrenched in their old mind programs." 34:10 "How do i get into this state of 'no mind' ?" 34:55 "Allow, accept and let go, it's a simple formula." You have to be detached from everything, problems, illness, the situation you're trapped in, from everything that you are not. Everything that you are not is not the truth because you are the truth. 41:05 "Love means neutrality. If you are in a neutral place then the love will be shared equally. It doesn't choose whether you're rich or poor. Knowing that pain is inevitable but suffering is optional, we have to allow, accept and let go of it."

56: Make Your Business A Spiritual Practice 10/06/2021

56: Make Your Business A Spiritual Practice 0:16 "How to turn your business, your vocation, your workation... into a spiritual practice every single day." It's important that we find a way to see meaning in what we do for a living. That doesn't mean go quit your job and become a dancer. We'd all love to do that. It means to really see and FEEL the role that your vocation plays in society, and the good that your product or service provides to another human soul. 0:40 "Number one, it starts with you. Knowing that it starts with you, is super relevant and important." Wake up before the emails, before the instagram messages, before the sun. Hone in on the message of the day. 1:20 "Not a 'to-do' list, but a 'to-be' list." How am I being in those moments? Being comes before doing. How am I going to BE in my relationships, in my office, in my own work? A lot of BEING adjustments will require a morning ritual: How can you nourish your creativity, your intelligence and your physical body? 2:12 "When running your business like a spiritual practice in your life, it's very important that you have a morning ritual." 2:35 "Number two is recognizing that every single person that comes into your business, your family, your customers... it's a soul's mission." Every person you come into contact with brings an opportunity for a greater evolution of being. It can be like unlocking several new timelines in your potential future when you begin to view people like this. Once you do, you'll experience greater purpose and meaning in your work. This can be more difficult for people who work from home. Many of us don't realize how much we need that human interaction. We need to hear those little anecdotes about someone else's life so we can cheer them on and feel connected to not just their victories but also their struggles. 5:35 "When you really start to look at life like it's a game, like it's not real, then the stress fades away." It might sound "woo-woo" but once you make peace with all outcomes, and realize that your mortal body and that this life will all pass away, it does create freedom and liberation. 8:15 "Getting behind organizations and having partnerships with other people that have a deeper soul's mission for what you're creating in the world too."

55: 3 Realizations For Harmonious Relationships With Mark Groves 10/04/2021

55: 3 Realizations For Harmonious Relationships With Mark Groves 4:39 "Rock bottoms come in any way, but they're always an invitation to realign with your actual path.' Are you ready and willing to be who you actually are, sometimes at the cost of belonging? The path chosen for us may have ups and downs, it may even be isolating during some seasons, but each challenge builds your character and further refines you into the ultimate person, the perfect puzzle piece for your future relationships. 6:17 "If you are turning down your volume to avoid chaos, you're internalizing chaos." There is no hiding. The challenge is within. Therefore, it's best we express our true authentic selves. If it creates discord, then it's a challenge we're meant to overcome within our relationships, friendships, and maybe even our community. Burying it down deep serves no one. 3 things people can do to ignite harmony in their relationships: Number 1: 10:19 "Recognize that your relationship is separate from who you are." You have needs that you must meet. Many of those come from an array of activities and relationships. Number 2: "See every relationship as sacred." The things that go unspoken and unprepared like plaque can build up into bigger problems. Number 3: "Define yourself." What kills relationships is the lack of recognition that you have sovereignty in your own life of yourself , deconstruct all of the systems that create codependency in your relationship. We can't allow someone else to "complete' us. We must be whole in ourselves. 18:18 "Evolutionarily, women needed to learn how to be safe around male aggression." It seems women seem more comfortable in personal relationship development and this may have been an evolved skill. 19:33 "We're more likely to get remarried, we don't know how to manage the grief and the pain, we have hardly any capacity for shame." Men seem to struggle with the shame of divorce and resort to remarrying to move on quickly. There's a difference between healthy shame and unhealthy shame. Instead of believing I'm no good, I can say "there's a better version of me available and I get to choose to step into it." 20:45 "When a man loses a relationship, he's generally losing his emotional support. For women, they turn mostly towards their friends." Men tend to replace their friends with their spouse, maybe for the purpose of organization or consolidation. So when a relationship ends, the man has lost more of his foundation. If your partner leaves, and you feel like they've taken everything, ask yourself "what did you give them?" If your happiness rests on their staying or going, then the weight they have to carry to be with you is too much. 22:50 "A relationship should never complete you. It should enhance you and make you a better person, and invite you to be a better person." 32:46 "The soul's journey will always try to express itself and ask for you to listen." 37:36 "There's only 3 constants in life. One is the sun will always come up, the moon will be there, and the truth will always be present." 38:55 "There's no such thing as one way liberation. If you are liberated, the other person is too, whether they know it or not." "Why would you ever choose someone who isn't choosing you? You can love someone and also not tolerate their behavior." 41:29 "When we're asking 'why the addiction?' We're asking the wrong question. We should be asking 'why the pain' and that's true of all materialism." Stress creates inflammation and poor relationships create stress. If you can figure out how to improve your relationships, it's the most important thing that you will ever change. "43:15 "If you do quit sugar, you'll probably discover that there was probably grief below." 50:52 "Every time you do something in excess, you are treating the pain of being present within yourself." 52:52 "When you draw a circle to exclude me, i draw a bigger circle to include you., and that's our work." 58:50 "Beliefs become our prisons, the idea that you can't do something, someone else's fear becomes our fear."

54: Using Trauma As Rocket Fuel 09/29/2021

54: Using Trauma As Rocket Fuel 0:43 "I believe trauma in the body is rocket fuel." Many times successful and accomplished people draw their inspiration from tragedy or difficult situations they experienced as children. There are two paths you can choose after experiencing trauma. You can grant power to the experience and let it shape you negatively forever, or you can make peace with it, and use it as your testimony to rise above and inspire others. 2:20 My father isn't my real father." Recognize that your father and mother aren't your real parents, but that parent is God. If your parents were great, that's great, but it was God who put them in your experience. If your parent's were not that great, it was still God who put them in your path for you to learn to be different. 3:55 The abuser, through the law of one-ness, the parent who did this to me is actually me." Through this law we can have compassion for the people who hurt us. If it's your mom or dad, maybe his dad did the same thing to him or maybe he wasn't given the tools to be the best dad. Learn to see through the anger, the pain, into the divine intelligence and wisdom of the situation and extract the learnings. It's not easy, but the sooner you can do that, the sooner you can start encouraging others to join you. 5:25 "This helps me realize that I am radically more self sufficient than I could ever have imagined." It gives us power. If we could get through it then, we can get through it now. 6:29 "This also helps me realize that we abuse ourselves every day through inefficient thoughts, feelings, we beat ourselves up every day." Maybe we learned the wrong message from trauma that we experienced as children. Maybe we abuse ourselves because that's what we think we deserve. How do we break this cycle? Create a "be" list: How am I going to be? "I'm love, I'm joy, I'm peace, I'm here to change lives." Write sticky notes on your mirror, words of affirmation, and lyrics of encouragement go a long way, and refresh them often to keep yourself surprised. 9:07 "Sometimes this shows up in what I'm eating." Your diet might be an expression of your self esteem. Are you drowning yourself in toxic food and drink to drown something out, or stop from thinking about something? Or is this some coping mechanism? What kind of high-vibing food can we replace that with? 9:43 "No matter what you're going through, no matter what you're up against, it serves a purpose." Maybe now you'll have radical ownership for everything that happens. 11:34 "These are important things to remember that will really help you shape, seize, and shift anything that you're holding on to that could cause you more and more 'dis-ease' in your body. " How many people are sick, hurting and unhealthy because of what they're holding onto psychologically or spiritually? We need to find a way, as hard as you think it might be, to see our trauma as a blessing, forgive our trespassers, and let our mind and body heal.
