Anxiety Mastery

In the last few months, many people around have been feeling an increase in their anxiety, and may not even know the cause. If you're nervous, your mind can run away trying to find justifications, and that can lead to a downward spiral - nerves leading to fear, combining into anxiety, imagining awkward situations, and so on. You don't always need to know the causes to feel anxiety, and as it turns out, many times you don't need to know the causes to solve it either. In this episode, Kurt goes through some perspectives and techniques to help you address, overcome and start to transmute your anxiety and other emotional problems into something beneficial. Topics discussed include: Pranayama or breathing exercises The importance of being open-minded Dropping anxiety like a weight Coping mechanisms and thriving strategies Tech detox Meditation - mindfulness, seated, walking The way you think The power of language over your state of mind Black and white thinking How to stick with a habit How resistance to anxiety causes you to become more anxious; and Having a little faith Hatha Yoga Pradipika https://jivamuktiyoga.com/fotm/hatha-yoga-pradipika-0/ Does the Earth's Magnetic Field Cause Suicides?

Know The Wisdom Of Your Ancestors

In a sense, our genetic code holds the wisdom of every generation that has come before us - the keys to millions of years of survival, and even some of prosperity. Is it possible that we can tap into that knowledge? Perhaps even tap into knowledge that is hidden on a spiritual level? According to Timothy Leary and Robert Anton Wilson, every human being and brain has the ability to access that ancient wisdom, using their own "morphogenetic circuit". In this episode, Kurt discusses some techniques that people might use to achieve this wisdom, including some from R.A. Wilson's book "Prometheus Rising", Carlos Castaneda, The Secret, and the Dimensional Jumping subreddit. Find the wisdom and power within in this exciting episode of... The Paradise Paradox!

Nation States End

According to the case made in the book "The Sovereign Individual", the nation state rose to power as a natural consequence of the conditions of the industrial age. Gunpowder made obsolete the old technology such as armed cavalry, and castles. That set the stage for the efficient smelting of iron, which lead to factories. Factories are very centralised - making them vulnerable to vandalism and also to taxation. The factory owners needed the protective watch of governments to maintain their properties. Now we are moving into the information age, and it is much more common to have digital property, in the form of websites and cryptocurrency. In many ways, the nation state is powerless to protect these new forms of property, and in many cases it is powerless to tax them. Still the belief in the authority of the nation state remains. How long will it hold up? Kurt explores that question and more in this episode of The Paradise Paradox!

Rejected from the USA

I didn't think I'd be welcomed into the USA by being interrogated and stuck in a small room for 48 hours, but that's life. Arriving to O'Hare airport, I was told to wait so they could ask me a few more questions. I was detained for hours and finally told I would not be allowed to enter the USA on the ESTA visa waiver program, due to my deportation from Mexico two years prior, and as a perpetual traveller, it wasn't clear where my home was. I sat and meditated quite a lot during those couple of days, looking for reasons to be grateful. It's funny, because in good times I don't always think too much about how to be happy. But in tough times, I always put in the extra effort, so paradoxically I can be happier in the face of adversity. And so, despite external factors, I must proclaim my visit to the USA as a success. A one-time home to liberty, then people could arrive in the US by Ellis Island as ship crew, passenger or even stowaway and receive an immigration visa. Now, that is certainly not the case. At least I know there are plenty of places in the world that will treat me more kindly.

The Dialectic of History - Arielle Friedman

Arielle Friedman is the former co-host of the Crypto Hippies Podcast, and now a co-host of The Multiversity Project, a podcast for exploring higher-dimensional education. In this interview we talk about what got her on the path of questioning what governments told her, noticing that their stated intentions weren't aligned with their real intentions. We talk about how that lead her to take an interest in philosophy, particularly in the works of Hegel. And we talk about the future of governments with things like private security and seasteading.

Voluntaryism And Beyond - Katy Kelly

Katy Kelly is one of four hosts of The Multiversity Project, a podcast for "higher-dimensional education", and is known for forming a voluntaryist meet-up in Austin, Texas, as well as in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. Years ago, she decided to leave her comfortable life in the US and head to Mexico to explore greater depths of self-knowledge and understanding a foreign culture, and to find a less stressful life. In this episode Katy and Kurt discuss Katy's past, how she came to be an advocate in world peace who was set to join the military, discovered libertarianism and voluntaryism, exploring non-violent communication, founding meet-ups, why she decided to move to Mexico and the strangeness of being in a very different culture, how she found work online, why she now has doubts about voluntaryism and the NAP, the philosophical basis of property rights, and how culture can be more important than government in deciding the fate of a nation. Note: in this episode we mention the structure of Luxembourg, but we were actually thinking of the principality of Liechtenstein. Check out The Multiversity Project: https://multiversitypodcast.com
