    Your phone is a BIG part of the war on consciousness

    I sit down with a student from the University of Colorado Boulder to talk about something that has become one of the defining issues of our time: the impact of smartphones and social media on our attention, nervous systems, and overall well-being.This is a topic I’ve been studying and teaching about for over a decade.The conversation traces back to the moment this work really began for me—around 2014, when I noticed something strange while trying to read a book. My attention kept drifting. I kept checking my phone. After finishing a PhD, I found myself wondering: Can I not read anymore?That moment of curiosity turned into years of research, teaching, and experimentation with students. What emerged from that process eventually became the Post-Internet Project, a body of work focused on helping people reclaim their attention, agency, and sense of meaning in the digital age.In this conversation we discuss:• Why digital detoxes often fail to create lasting change• The deeper root of media overconsumption: disconnection from values and purpose• How dopamine actually works in the brain (and why phones drain motivation for real life)• The emotional desensitization created by constant media consumption• How algorithmic feeds distort our perception of reality• The role of agency and choice in shaping our future relationship with technology• Thoughts on AI, attention, and personal sovereigntyAt the heart of this conversation is a simple idea:When people remember what actually brings them meaning, joy, and purpose, the phone naturally becomes less interesting.An InvitationI currently have a couple of one-on-one mentorship spaces available for March–May for people who want deeper support in realigning their relationship with attention, media, and daily life.This work is structured, focused, and designed to help people reconnect with what truly matters so their time, energy, and attention begin organizing around those values again.If you're interested, feel free to reach out. annie@postinternetproject.orgAbout the Post-Internet ProjectThe Post-Internet Project explores how humans can navigate the psychological, social, and spiritual challenges of the digital age.The goal is not simply to reduce screen time, but to help individuals reclaim agency, meaning, and clarity in a world shaped by powerful technologies.If you enjoyed this conversation:• Subscribe to the channel• Share with someone who might benefit• And take a moment today to put your phone down, breathe, and look around.Your attention is sacred.

    Sacred Grief, Sacred Rage - Stories from Soul School

    This episode is raw and messy. It’s me telling the truth about how broken higher education feels and how much it hurts to watch young people’s souls get crushed under grades, deadlines, and “success metrics” that aren’t even real.I recorded this in one take, bloopers and all, because sometimes grief and rage are as sacred and needed as love and light. This is for my students, for anyone who’s ever felt lost inside a system that doesn’t see their soul, and for everyone who’s learning that rage can be holy too.Inside you’ll hear:– A candid, unfiltered reflection on higher ed’s shadow side– Why grief and rage can be powerful teachers and sacred emotions– A dedication to one of my Soul School students who’s struggling right now– A reminder that even in the muck, love, courage, and hope are realMay this expression liberate you to express your own truth, your own sacred anger, your own sacred tears.WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE.

    We Are Free - Stories from Soul School

    I share true stories from recent meditations and classrooms: students rediscovering their inner spark, others wrestling with beliefs about free will and truth, and the sobering reality of young people who know their media habits harm them but feel powerless to change. We explore: 🌱 Why grief can be alchemized into light 🛡️ How to protect your inner spark without becoming defensive 🌍 The difference between systems that disempower us and practices that restore agency 💫 Soul School’s vision as a space for remembering, not through dogma, but through your own direct connection to Eternal Source If you’ve felt the crippling waves of fear in the field, the exhaustion of scrolling, or the grief of watching the old world crumble, this episode is for you. REMEMBER. We are free. We are free. We are free. 🙏 If this resonates, support Soul School by liking, subscribing, and sharing with someone who could benefit. 💌 Join weekly Soul School Office Hours (Wednesdays 6:30pm MT) — details on Instagram @annie.are.we.okay.

    Meditation for Alignment and Harmonizing Emotion

    Our attention is sacred. In this meditation we focus on Love, Truth, and our direct connection to Source. The first time I guided this meditation, someone in the audience told me afterward that he believed our emotions are not real, Love is just an idea (not an actual force in the Universe), and there is no Truth... oh and also we don't have freewill or agency. LOL. That kind of programming will really getcha disempowered. Sounds like mind control to me. When some organized or traditional way of thinking convinces you to believe you have no power, it becomes true, which is very convenient for the powers that be. When I responded politely saying I had different beliefs, he then proceeded to tell me he has "no beliefs" (after just listing all his beliefs). I wasn't angry or offended but it was incredibly difficult for me to hold it together and not laugh out loud. ^If you fall into the camp who believes you are powerless, this meditation is NOT for you.... yet ;) If you're ready to reclaim your agency, direct connection to Source, and to feel the power of LOVE flow through you, then join me. ONE LOVE. WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE.

    Soul School Episode 1

    I'm Annie Margaret, PhD. Welcome to Soul School. 🌌 I share the origin story of Soul School — from my first direct experiences of non-local consciousness (out-of-body vision, flooding white light, and the transmission of love, joy, and the liberation of all beings) to the creation of a new model of education for a post-materialist world. ✨ What it means to ask if consciousness is foundational or just a byproduct of the brain. ✨ The “Brain as Filter” model of consciousness. ✨ Stories from students of visions, seraphim, and premonitions .✨ Why current education is failing students — filling their “filters” with unnecessary content, stress and emptiness instead of cultivating intuition, discernment, and connection to Source. ✨ Student survey data showing: 42% of students report out-of-body experiences. 50% report transcendent or mystical experiences. 71% say they feel a deep need for meaning and purpose. 64% say extrasensory perception is real (and another 21% say “I don’t know”). I share a powerful moment of support from a university administrator who resonated with Soul School, calling my work “an important mission that will authentically guide students out of tremendous suffering.” The message is clear: these aren’t fringe anomalies — they are lived experiences shaping the inner worlds of our students. If universities won’t recognize this, then something new must rise. Soul School is that rising. A place to tune our instruments to love, peace, to restore our imaginations — and to remember that the free world is inevitable. WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE. WE ARE FREE. 🔔 Subscribe for more episodes, stories, and practices. Disclaimer: I work for the ATLAS Institute at the University of Colorado Boulder. My colleagues and immediate administrators are in no way part of the educational problem I am describing in this episode. Our students have way more freedom than most. And I'm not just saying that to play it safe, I'm way past that ;-) They're truly wonderful people and I want to be clear who I AM (and am NOT) referring to.

    SEE 11 - It Will Be Interesting to See What Happens Next

    This is not an episode I planned to create. I’m not here to convince anyone to change their beliefs. There is no sense in that. I know the truth of what I saw, and continue to see. This experience changed me. Science supports my lived experience. Scientism does not. Please enjoy it... 🧠 A conversation with a skeptical scientist friend (who I love dearly) 🌀 Gnosis and the art of “seeing for yourself” 🧘‍♀️ Meditative states and accessing information across space and time 💔 The vulnerability of trying to validate spiritual experiences in a materialist world ❤️ Why remembering who we really are is the key to our future ✨ Soul School Office Hours, beginning August 27 — a free weekly zoom gathering for those curious about consciousness, near-death experiences, intention, healing, and the next evolution of what it means to be human. Thank you to Laura Inserra for the music! https://www.laurainserra.com/ Stay tuned on Instagram @annie.are.we.okay The transmission of love and joy and the liberation of all beings. May we grow stronger in spirit.

    SEE 10 - Tantra, Queerness, and The Impulse to Expand - with Jason King

    In this episode of Something Else Entirely, I sit down with my dear friend Jason King, a tantric teacher and facilitator of intimacy and embodiment practices, for a heart-centered conversation about queerness, desire, and the spiritual journey of becoming.We explore queerness not just as an identity, but as an energetic and evolutionary force. What happens when we view identity through the lens of non-dual consciousness? What does tantra teach us about authentic desire, expansion, and creative expression? And how do we make peace with the boxes we build — even as we desire to break free from them?This episode is a meditation on the complexity of being, the longing to be whole, and the courage it takes to live in alignment. 🔹 Topics we explore:Tantra’s perspective on desire and soul expressionQueerness as spiritual archetype and evolutionary energyThe dance between identity, labels, and liberationMoral vs. spiritual bypassingWhat it means to align with your inner truth📍 Disclaimer: We are not scholars of queer theory or gender studies. This is an intimate conversation between two friends, sharing lived experience, reflection, and spiritual exploration.🎧 Listen, feel, take what resonates, and let the rest compost.
