  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Almost Enlightened is a show about discovery. Reflection is the lens through which the host, Alex, takes you on a journey of thought and emotion. Intertwining observation and experience, Alex's reflections are certainly thought provoking, often times eliciting a panoply of conflicting emotions. That's natural and that's deliberate. If you're interested in seeing life from a variety of perspectives; if you're interested in developing an ability to think for yourself, then this is the show for you! This is different. Are you okay with different?

    The Gift of Breath

    Alex expands upon the lessons he shared in episode 55 entitled "Mind the Gap." He goes deeper into the gap, exploring the interesting connection between our breath and creation. Note - Alex says, "psychedelic assisted therapy" several times when he's referring to PAT, which is really meant to be "psilocybin assisted therapy." Oops! :)

    Mind the Gap

    After producing fifty-four episodes of the Almost Enlightened podcast, Alex took a three-year break to search the depths of his heart for truth and alignment. In this episode, Alex reveals what prompted the search and what he discovered. "Mind the Gap" is a talk by Alex, first shared at the University of Toronto during a recent bLU Talks event. Always ambitious, Alex examines the role of ego, identity, and the subconscious, while vulnerably sharing some of his most transformative moments. According to the author, this is the definitive reboot of the Almost Enlightened podcast.

    The Institution of Gift Giving

    Beliefs and Behaviours

    I had a revelation the other night: I can't keep thinking and acting the way I've been thinking and acting. My thinking and acting just don't line-up with what I believe anymore. So I guess it's time to make some changes. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed creating it.
