    Best of The Aware Show with Ravinder Taylor: Mind Training – Part 2

    Would you like to better understand your patterns and feel more empowered?  Do you sometimes have a challenging time finding the positive in certain situations? Lisa continues the conversation today with researcher and best-selling author Ravinder Taylor. She has helped literally thousands of people change their state of mind and therefore empower their lives. Her latest book is "Mind Training: The Science of Self-Empowerment." Ravinder talks about the importance of choice. If bad things happen, it is not your fault. She asks us to ask, "What do you gain when you have a problem?" What is the difference between being informed and being prepared? How can you be aware of a problem or upcoming situation, yet not attract it? Ravinder has studied optimism and pessimism. Some people believe that doom-scrolling is about helping them feel more prepared. People have the "hope" that if they have information, they can be prepared so the worst-case won't happen. If someone looks for the negative, they will not have an enjoyable time and will feel stressed. Ravinder talks about statistics which show how much healthier people can be if they are more optimistic. What you expect, you observe. Your body will either fight or grow. Cortisol makes us feel stressed and can affect our hearts. She discusses actual techniques to increase optimism. We can be aware that some things will not work out, but if we are optimistic, we can grow and have a happier quality of life. Her "Mind Training" book talks all about the benefits of optimism and positive thinking. We can learn when things go wrong, and that means you have grown as a person. If your self-talk is positive, you cannot be depressed. Ravinder also talks about compassion and forgiveness. She talks about the prison system and studies about blame. We may need to separate ourselves from toxic people and toxic situations, but we can still offer forgiveness. She talks about the idea of "Forgiving the Unforgivable," and Free Will. We have choices and we can teach by example. This is Part 2 of the interview. Info: RavinderTaylor.com

    Best of The Aware Show with Ravinder Taylor: Mind Training – Part 1

    Do you ever feel like you are going backwards and not reaching your goals? We've heard about various methods, but what happens when we really utilize the power of our mind to break through blocks to success in our lives? Our guest today is researcher and best-selling author Ravinder Taylor. She has helped thousands of people change their state of mind and therefore empower their lives. Her latest book is "Mind Training: The Science of Self-Empowerment." Ravinder talks about solid research which analyzed the importance of your state of mind, including a technique which improved cognitive abilities, reduced stress, and also made progress toward dementia. When she studied it further, she knew she could go deeper. What she wanted to do was take away the mystic around "self-help," and show how in a scientific manner that positive change could be proven. She studied various self-help techniques so that the reader could find methods that work for themselves. She was looking specifically at a 12-minute meditation, which had spiritual undertones. She talks about the Sikh tradition in which she was raised, although she turned away from organized religion. She further studied brainwave entrainment and how it works with meditation. She suggests bringing your own faith into your meditation, if that feels right for you. She talks about what beliefs mean and how certain ideas get into our mind. The subconscious beliefs are so powerful, but first she says we must understand where the beliefs originated. She talks about the divided mind that Freud explored which includes the Ego, the Id, and the Superego. She furthers talks about the idea of the 4 Selves and what they mean. Who do we believe we can be? It's not about perfection, it's about our personal successes. We can actualize them. Her training is about being the best you can be. She further looks at psycho-social development, starting as an infant. Each period of our life lets us learn different things. She outlines the stages and shares ways to correct behaviors toward empowerment through various exercises. We can look back at our own childhoods and see where patterns started. Ravinder discusses her research into the Law of Attraction – Ask, Believe, and Receive. She talks about insecurities, self-destructive behaviors, and the importance of choosing, rather than asking.

    Master Mingtong Gu: Qigong Teachings in Times of Artificial Intelligence and Crisis - Part 2

    How do you find peace within chaos? How do you find a point of stillness? Lisa continues the conversation today with globally recognized teacher and healer Master Mingtong Gu. He brings ancient wisdom to times of crisis through Qigong and other energy practices. Mingtong bridges ancient cultures with modern times and has established Wisdom Healing Qigong as a global movement. Today he talks deeply about Artificial Intelligence and how it can help us discover who we are as humans. We run a risk of the digital taking over, but we must first be aware of our bodies. We are facing a crisis. We must live through the truth of who we are. We can awaken and make our own choices. AI cannot experience human emotions. It is a neutral machine. No machines can replace our consciousness. He talks about how AI can help us discover ourselves. We can learn about our archetypes. It can give us more insight and help us understand why we are struggling. We are humans in our bodies. Until we embody this, we will be lost. AI can help us know ourselves. We must connect with life. We cannot be in fear of AI. This is all our choice.   Master Mingtong Gu has been awarded Qigong Master of the Year. He is founder of The Chi Center and Southwest Sanctuary for Embodied Wisdom. His most recent book is "Coming Home to Embodied Awakening." Master Mingtong Gu invites us to share in a very powerful meditation and Qigong experience during the first segment of the interview.

    Master Mingtong Gu: Qigong Teachings in Times of Artificial Intelligence and Crisis - Part 1

    Are you experiencing stress or even a personal crisis? With so much loss and trauma happening all over the world, how can we possibly get to a place of peace? Globally recognized teacher and healer Master Mingtong Gu is our guest today. He brings ancient wisdom to times of crisis through Qigong and other energy practices. He has been awarded Qigong Master of the Year. Master Mingtong Gu is founder of The Chi Center and Southwest Sanctuary for Embodied Wisdom. He bridges ancient cultures with modern times and has established Wisdom Healing Qigong as a global movement. His most recent book is "Coming Home to Embodied Awakening." Mingtong discusses the symptoms of suffering. According to Buddhist belief, the cause of all suffering is ignorance and attachment. There is a disconnection between our minds and our bodies. Mingtong shares a personal story about his teenagers who are "hijacked" by video games. They are disconnected from themselves. They are suffering, so they resort to digital realities. This is not just his situation, but it affects masses of people around the world. He talks about how we run away from discomfort. We run away from our realities. We want to bypass this reality. We have become walking ghosts. We spend so much time in our minds. Our mental world is hijacked by the digital world. So many people spend a tremendous amount of time on social media. We are not in touch with our bodies. Our bodies are what make us human. It is what connects us with nature. We are missing the connection to our body. This is where addiction comes from. Some do not know how to exist without numbing themselves with alcohol, drugs, social media, shopping, and so much more. Most people do not want to acknowledge the truth of suffering. He talks about how he discovered Qigong, not in China, but in Columbus, Ohio. He learned the soft, gentle movement practice and explains how it connects us to ourselves. We can feel complete in the moment. He also talks a medicine-less hospital in China which practices Qigong and energy work. Thousands of people have recovered from various conditions and ailments. He explains how Qigong can reconnect us. Master Mingtong Gu invites us to share in a very powerful meditation and Qigong experience during this segment of the interview. This is Part 1.

    Best of The Aware Show with Hakim Isler: Exploring Psychic & Extraordinary Abilities – Part 1

    Are you familiar with the idea of remote viewing and how the military uses it? Would you like to hone your psychic skills? Our guest today, Hakim Isler, is a combat veteran and military expert in PsiOps. He is the creator of the Psi Games Event and will discuss its role in unlocking human potential. Hakim is a survivalist and explains how the human hierarchy of needs relates to the chakras. We are all part of the whole. In this interview, Hakim discusses consciousness and how we relate to the world. This leads to other states of awareness. He talks about spiritual living and the importance of breathwork. Hakim is involved in an extensive yoga program and talks about balance and various breathing techniques. He shares about three different types of breathing, all of which affects our energy, whether it's to feel more energized, to slow down and relax, or to simply be in balance. Hakim was on the TV show "Naked and Afraid" where he was sent to the Himalayan mountains and needed to survive for 21 days with no food, no water, no shelter. He shares what he learned during that time. Hakim realized that what really matters is who you are and who you love. He tries to remind people that we are unlimited beings. We must try to hold on to what matters – and love is the most important aspect. The biggest tools we have are our breath and our love. We are all connected. Hakim further discusses the practice of remote viewing which was originally designed by the military to access information from a different place and time. Essentially the veterans in this secret program were considered "psychic spies." Hakim explains how remote viewing helps us realize we are more than our physical bodies. We are expanded beings as a collective. The true awareness of who we are is about connection as a whole. He also talks about the extensive work he is doing to teach everyone, children as well, how to access our innate psychic abilities. Hakim believes it's the next level of our evolution.
