    Discipline Isn't A War: The Internal Fight No Man Ever Wins

    Is your self-discipline actually causing your self-destruction? Could the grind be hindering the growth in your life? Has toxic masculinity quietly corrupted our views on taking action, and even our views about ourselves as men? These questions highlight much of our discussion today as we search for a way to "stay hard" on our habits while also finding a softness for ourselves. As I explain how I experienced this shift personally, I hope that it is relatable to men that feel a constant pressure to perform and attain perfection. This episdode will dispel the alpha-male lie that you are not doing enough, and give you a better way to deal with your self-discipline and your overall masculine duty.  The 🔑 Takeaways 0:00 Intro 4:00 Attempting the 75Hard Challenge 12:20 Subconscious Scripts  14:25 My Second Attempt of 75Hard 17:30 The Mistranslation of the word "Discipline" 22:00 Underlying Energetics Behind Your Practice 26:20 A Letter from Deep Roots Brotherhood 29:20 Self-Loathing vs Self-Love THE HOW-TO 33:00 Train your Mind to Think Lovingly  38:00 Spiritual Warriors have the Ability to Choose 40:20 Feel that Feeling of Love Towards Yourself 43:20 Removing the Blocks 49:10 Set the Intention of Self-Care Before Taking Action 51:30 "Instruction and Training" as a Healthy Masculine Man

    Plant Medicine Mormons: Where Faith Meets Psychedelics

    Get ready for the most controversial episode yet! And one that many people might need today.  My wife Rachel and I dive deep into the reality of our ever-evolving faith as we navigate through life. While being members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, we are also strong advocates for the safe and intentional use of plant medicine. Rather than focus on the scientific studies of psychedelics, we share from the lens of our experience: that these are spiritual substances.  We honor the Indigenous traditions that steward these medicines and credit how their knowledge is needed in today's world. We answer some questions of the soul around how these additional tools could fit into a westernized religious paradigm. As we discuss our own journey, we hope that some of it may resonate with people that might be feeling called to these aids for themselves or for others. This episode is to begin the discussion! Rachel and I share openly solely to help others that might feel like nothing else is working for them to feel better. We love you. God loves you. And He has given us many paths that lead to the one Truth. Enjoy!  The 🔑 Takeaways:  0:00 Intro 2:09 The Goal in this Episode  4:00 Our Story of Finding Psychedelics  6:50 Years of Therapy in a Few Hours 9:06 Why talk about the Spirituality of this Medicine? Why not just stick to the Science behind it?  13:25 These are Spiritual Substances  17:05 Taking Adderall vs Microdosing Mushrooms 19:56 Does this Replace your Relationship with God?  24:00 Seeking Help is Okay 27:15 The Bronze Serpent vs The Golden Calf 32:45 Is this a Shortcut to God? 37:37 Using Tools, But Not Relying on Them 40:40 The Framework: Intention, Experience, Integration 43:37 Wrestling with Doubts, Fears, and the Ego  46:46 "We learn by Study and also by Faith"  49:30 Importance of Integration 54:17 Is Plant Medicine For You? 57:35 Unpacking the Suitcase Analogy  1:05:30 "All things which come of the Earth are made for the benefit and use of man" (D&C 59:18)

    In todays world, men face too many dillemas to count. The plethora of problems, spanning from physcial pains to psychological burdens, can feel like they are compounding against us.

    Principle & Practice: Yoga 

    In this episode, I give an introduction to the mystical philosophy of Yoga. What I mistakenly believed to be just a fitness fad, has opened up into a world of wisdom. Yoga is a Sanskrit word that means to unite, to join, to connect, or to yoke. Its teachings are centered around the mind-body-soul connection and its techniques are powerful. Look at yoga in this light, and you will discover balance within your whole being.

    Hot Topic: Masculine and Feminine Energies 

    Reap Your Roots has a NEW genre for episodes focused on hot topics that have been circulating around the health and healing space. Although the topic for today is nothing new, there has been a noticeable revival around this theme in recent times. My guest today is the beautiful and intelligent Rachel Daybell. She is (somehow) my wife; and excels as a photographer, breathwork facilitator, and mother also. Since I've known her I've looked up to her and appreciated her wisdom, some of which she shares here. For this episode, we chose separately 3 words to describe the masculine and 3 words to describe the feminine. Listen as we discuss definitions and real-life examples to gain a better understanding of these energies. Knowing about the masculine/feminine balance will help us understand ourselves better and will improve our relationships. The 🔑 Takeaways: (0:00) Intro (2:00) Hot Topic and Hot Guest (4:43) Male Waffle Brain and Female Spaghetti Brain (9:00) Masculine: Structure and Steady || Feminine: Fluidity and Flow (11:12) Energies in Relationships (13:25) Masculine: Doing and Action || Feminine: Being and Essence (19:49) Value in Just Being (22:00) Masculine: Giving || Feminine: Receiving (24:50) Masculine: Resilience || Feminine: Nurturing (28:00) Conclusion
