The Mindvalley Show with Vishen Mindvalley

What if you could tap into the incredible healing powers of your mind simply by changing your thoughts? Today’s guest is Marisa Peer, a hypnotherapist and the author of Tell Yourself a Better Lie. 
In this episode, Marisa takes you on a guided meditation to hypnotize your body into perfection. It is not magic or woo-woo; it is science and a testament to the inherent healing power of your brain. Marisa has healed herself from cancer twice, regrown bone, and healed wounds with repetitive and positive influence over her mind.
Marisa empowers you to shift your language to direct, instruct, command, compel, and code your body into a wellness machine. She teaches you the foundational techniques so you can demand your body to heal on the cellular level. 
Your brain acts on your beliefs. You can choose better thoughts, believe better lies and imagine better outcomes. Marisa demonstrates the power of language and how shifting the words you use can dramatically affect the health of your body and mind. 
If you want to be the director of your physical destiny, listen now!

Memorable Quotes:
“Not my migraine, my cancer, my irritable bowel, because if you call something mine, you own it. It’s an ownership word. You might say, this is my kid, this is my home, now I’ve got  my irritable bowel, my tension headaches, so I didn’t want to be a cancer survivor or talk about my cancer.” [14:15] -Marisa Peer
“Here’s another rule of your mind; every thought you think is a blueprint that your mind, body, and psyche work to make real, so when you say I’m directing, instructing, commanding, and coding my mind to build a perfect body, speed up my metabolic rate, improve my digestion, it becomes real.”   [22:05] -Marisa Peer
“This is not magic. It’s actually science. Neuroplasticity means that your thoughts that you’re thinking are changing the shape of you, changing the shape of your brain, your body.” [39:58] -Marisa Peer

Memorable Quotes:

“We think there is a motor learning window that slams shut, and it turns out there is a motor learning window, and it does sort of close, but what really changes is not on the inside, it’s how we approach learning. Kids learn by playing, adults learn by work, and work comes with a lot more fear.”   [21:09] -Steven Kotler

What if I told you that you were living in an illusion? 
Today we question the nature of reality with Dr. Srikumar Rao, author of Modern Wisdom, Ancient Roots; he is a groundbreaking business coach and speaker who taps into ancient concepts that are still relevant to post-industrial society. This timeless wisdom will wake you from the illusion of dissatisfaction and desire. 
In this episode, Dr. Rao shares three powerful ideas that will shift your perception of reality and help unlock your capacity for joy. 
Happiness does not depend on anything; Dr.Rao points out that the idea that your joy hinges on your accomplishments is the illusion of want. You are chasing a feeling that you think will set you free, but the bigger house, the better job, and more money are not what will bring you joy because you can tap into eternal bliss under any conditions.
He explains the Hindu concept of Ānanda, the state of being which allows you to let go of your earthly attachments and achieve eternal bliss. Ānanda is your natural state of being because the universe is benevolent, and everything you experience is neither good nor bad, so you do not need to chase anything. Everything in your life is as it should be and is
designed specifically for your growth and fulfillment. Dr. Rao demystifies the mindset necessary to unlock eternal bliss. 
Join us to recognize the illusion you’re living in so that you can set yourself free from it and experience the beauty of life as it unfolds before you.

Memorable Quotes:
“You cannot solve an internal problem with external action.”  [11:00]  -Dr. Srikumar Rao

Today on The Mindvalley Show, we are creating a framework to develop your child's passion and vision for life. Our guest is Mathew Knowles, the father of legendary Beyonce and Solange Knowles and the visionary behind Destiny's Child. He gives insight into his mindset as a parent and how you can help your children achieve their wildest dreams.
No one can be great at everything, yet parents commonly pressure their children into being straight-A students, assume extracurricular activities, and expect perfection unseen in the adult world. Mathew believes perfection kills your child's creativity and prevents them from realizing their passions. He teaches you to nurture your children's natural abilities instead of molding them into your vision. 
We discuss the importance of honesty. Mathew reveals that he never hid his mistakes and struggles from his children. This honest communication set Beyonce and Solange up for success in the real world. Without experiencing failure, your children can't grow, and one big mistake could be their catalyst for greatness. 
Mathew imparts his key ingredients to develop your children's passion so they can dream big and never fear failure. All children have greatness inside them, and today we learn how you can become the positive influence your children need to achieve their vision. Your words and actions unconsciously influence your children's understanding of the world. Join us to discover how you can grow as a parent and help your child achieve their dreams.

Memorable Quotes:
“I realize, every area we’re not experts in. I think parents sometimes we forget that, that ourselves we’re not experts in every area. There will be some areas our kid will struggle in.” [19:41] -Mathew Knowles
“We also shared our mistakes with them, and our failures with them. We didn’t hide that from our kids and I think that was a positive thing.” [23:43] -Mathew Knowles 
Words matter, especially with kids. What words you say is critically important, and I think when we have a topic like race, or we have a topic like education we have to be really careful how we say these words to our kids, because they’re like an empty glass, and we’re filling them up with our belief system.” [40:10] -Mathew Knowles
