    27 - Mindfulness for Regular People

    The practice of mindfulness has become a full fledged industry today in the West but many are confused by what it actually is.  We are inundated with self-help coaches and programs marketed to us under the banner of "Mindfulness Practice," yet often it can feel disconnected and disingenuous.  In this episode we attempt to pull back the curtain on mindfulness practices and give examples for how we have implemented it into our own lives and give details as to how it has helped us.  Join us as we deconstruct mindfulness and dive into the depths of what it has to offer.

    26 - Meaning, Purpose, and Value

    What is my purpose?  What brings meaning to life?  How do we derive our sense of values in life?  Can meaning, purpose, and value be found in the more material aspects of life or are these only fulfilled in the more spiritual realm?  Is the attainment of an award really the highest pinnacle of ones purpose?  In this episode we discuss these questions and try to get to the bottom of the philosophical concepts of meaning, purpose, and value.  Although similar, these three concepts have subtle differences that can bring about profound difference when arranged in different ways.  Join us in this episode as we deconstruct the nature of value systems themselves.

    25 - You Need A Hobby

    In today's world it is easy to forget the small and subtle aspects to daily life.  With infinite stimuli vying for our attention, we can find ourselves consumed with to do lists and pursuing instantaneous gratification at all times.  This way of life can often damage our sense of meaning and purpose.  When we live polar lives of working and resting we fail to nourish the love inside of us that yearns for expression, often found in hobbies.  Join us in this episode as we rekindle the lost art of hobbies and discuss the importance of hobbies in today's world as well as some of our own hobbies.

    24 - The Price of Peace

    The term "self-care" is used so ubiquitously today that it has become a catch-all phrase loved by marketers to appeal to the desires of the consumer to feel better.  What does "self-care" actually mean?  Must we continually buy products that will contribute to our wellbeing?  Maybe we already have all the tools we need within ourselves to administer our own forms of self-care.  Join us in this episode as we discuss the modern day notion of "self-care" and the consumerist culture that has developed along side it.

    23 - Divesting from Social Media Dependency

    Our world today is a world of stimulation.  Notification bells, text messages, the bright flashing lights of the television and computer screens, we are constantly inundated with stimuli vying for our attention.  Social media has become the apex predator of the stimulation landscape, creating a seemingly unavoidable allure that can even prevent us from doing what we truly want to do.  Is there anything we can do to combat this and regain control over our lives?  Join us in this episode as we discuss our challenges with social media and some tips and tricks we have found for regaining control over them.

    22 - (In)dependence

    What does it mean to be independent?  What does it mean to be dependent?  Is one way of being better than the other?  Can we only trust ourselves in this world or do we live in an inherently interconnected and dependent universe?  Could extreme independence and extreme dependence lead to toxic ways of life? Could a balance between the two leads to abundance?  Join us in this week's episode as we try to answer some of these question and deconstruct the notion of (in)dependence.

    20 - What We (Now) Know About Ourselves

    2020 is over and we are barreling head first into 2021.  In this episode we discuss some of the introspection that the past year has provided space for.  Many people around the world have been isolated or disrupted from their daily habits and routines and have been given time and space to reflect on their lives.  Although this can be very difficult, it provides fertile ground for growth.  Join us in this episode as we discuss some of the introspection we have been through over the past year and the conclusions we have come to.
