Having seen so many around me suffering from stress, addiction, suicidal thoughts, anxiety and depression, I decided to embark upon a 9-year journey that would take me to over 35 countries living with and learning from shamans, gurus, monks and tribes. I studied 16 religions and spiritualities, ancient wisdom and modern science, and spent 50 days meditating in total solitude, all in an effort to discover the secrets to a peaceful mind. 

 If you’re ready to let go of your negative thoughts and the baggage that is weighing you down, if you’re ready for a life filled with joy, purpose and meaning, please join me on the Path to Peace with Todd Perelmuter.

    How to Live Authentically in a Fake World

    How to Live Authentically in a Fake World

    To live authentically, we have to know ourselves. To know ourselves, we have to spend a little time tuning out the influencers and tuning into our heart's intentions, values and instincts. This is how we go beyond the mind's thoughts and into our true calling in life.

    We are being influenced everywhere we look, from the advertisements we see to the social media we consume. In today's podcast, I share some simple ways we can block out the noise, reconnect with ourselves, and start living in alignment so that we are less stressed, more focused, and confidently living the life of purpose that was meant for us.

    In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, my book, Digital Ego: A How-To Survival Guide for the Internet, is just $2.99. An important message for everyone, but a must read for the young people in your life.

    How to Master Your Emotions

    How to Master Your Emotions

    Mastering your emotions is much like mastering a foreign language. At first, you will feel you are not making any progress. For some time, it will take a great deal of sustained effort to translate basic sentences in your head. But eventually, it it will seep into your subconscious and you will realize you are fluent. And every day you practice, your skill will grow and grow.

    In today's podcast, I share simple techniques to practice mastering your emotions. I discuss what can cause a person to become emotional, how to keep your cool, and why doing this one thing can make you not just the master of your emotions, but the master of your life as well.

    How to Survive a Dysfunctional Family

    How to Survive a Dysfunctional Family

    We live in a dysfunctional society.  We have big problems that seem intractable. The well being of every person is not the priority of our global governments. So it is no wonder that many of us come from dysfunctional families.

    How can we survive the trauma that was normalized as children? How can we heal from the anxiety and PTSD we've developed? How can we unlearn the negative, critical voice in our head that we inherited from our family? And how can we mend the wounds of broken relationships? I answer these questions and more in today's podcast.

    #1 Reason Why Relationships Fail

    #1 Reason Why Relationships Fail

    Not every relationship will last forever. Not every person is meant to be in our life. But whether someone is in our life for a brief moment or for the rest of our life, every relationship has something to teach us.

    How we relate to ourselves, others, and the world around us is what determines the quality of our life. When we live in harmony, we feel peaceful. When our relationships with those three things are strained, life becomes strenuous.

    In today's podcast, I talk about the secret to living in wise relation with everyone and everything around us, including ourself. I talk about how we can know when to give grace, and when we need to create boundaries. And I share how even when relationship do end, we can walk away with peace and love.

    Is Success More Important Than Happiness?

    Is Success More Important Than Happiness?

    Society rewards success. It is the most alluring addiction there is because it is the only addiction that we are celebrated for having. It becomes ingrained into everyone of us that we should delay our happiness until we have achieved success later in life.

    But what happens when we postpone our happiness? Is happiness greater than success? Will wealth bring us happiness? Can we have both success and happiness?

    In today's podcast, I talk about the current debate between happiness and success. I share some ways we can think about what success really means. And I answer the age old question of how we can truly live a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Portraitgurl ,

Love!

Love this podcast series and Todd’s books. I find Todd’s teachings and insights calming and extremely useful.

Thick Guitar ,

Well communicated

As an Alan Watts, Ram Das, Michael Singer and Eckhart Tolle fan, I really enjoy this podcast. Todd speaks clearly and thoughtfully about the human psyche and has a slightly different approach than the other authors I mentioned. His emphasis is strongly on meditation and as a soul that has been practicing meditation for a couple of decades it’s good to have the encouragement. Thanks for sharing your experiences in a easy to consume manner. Wish I had your patience and willingness to be so disciplined.

Easy listening

I have been working on my transformation and finding this podcast has been so helpful. He addresses some real world issues people can have- that I have had. Things that made me question my path and if I even deserve it. It’s informative and really resonates.
