The place of sharing is actually down the road. If you look at the 12-step programs used in AA or NA, they have a very specific process for self-healing. The 12 steps can be divided into three groups. The first six steps are becoming aware and overcoming this condition of unconsciousness. The last two groupings in the last six steps are when the sharing and teaching occur. You're becoming a teacher to others based on what you have accomplished in the first six steps. Most Effective Way To Explore Yourself Meditation is the most effective way to explore yourself. In some of the books I've written, I share some processes to expedite the healing process. Remember the old days when you would go to the library and look up the index card? The index card would have a brief summary of the book. You would have to go to the book to get the information that you needed. Our stories are like the index card. In order to get to what you want to learn, you have to go to the emotions. You have to heal the emotional baggage. It is the process of enlightenment. It is the path, not the destination. Doing the work is entirely up to you. Meditation is by far the most productive way to accomplish this.   Suggested Resources Book: The Identity Model; Understanding and healing mankind's stress and suffering by Dean Graves Book: Edifying Children of a Lesser God by Dean Graves Book: The Enigma of Consciousness by Dean Graves (Available to preorder) App: n/a Related Episodes What Is Consciousness; Tom Campbell (Part 1) Living Consciously; Brian Berneman Beyond Fitness to Conscious Evolution With Mariko Hirakawa

Through mindfulness, I've learned that those emotions are stored in the body and you can't run from them. Those emotions will come out. It could be in the form of shingles and anxiety attacks which I've had. You can't run from that kind of stuff. It stays in there. It Will metastasize cells into skin cancer. We've seen that happen twice actually with my wife. Stress and those emotions don't run away. Thoughts on Breathing The reason why in meditation we focus on our breath blew my mind when I first started practicing meditation. We focus on our breath because the only place that we can breathe is in the present moment. If we're trying to cultivate presence through meditation, all we have to do is focus on our breath. Close your eyes, feel your chest move in and out. When I first learned that, it was the biggest aha moment for me. Suggested Resources Book: No Mud, No Lotus by Thich Nhat Hanh App: n/a Bullying Story My first job after graduation was in outside sales for a manufacturing company. I was sent to Boston with no cost-of-living adjustment and just two weeks of PTO. During the holidays, I asked my manager if I could work from our home office to spend more time with family. He yelled, questioning why I thought I was special. I pushed back aggressively, feeling cornered. Looking back, I cringe. If I’d practiced mindfulness, I’d have responded with more compassion—for myself and for him—and likely managed the situation better.

Effect on Emotions Mindfulness has made a night-and-day difference in how I deal with my emotions. Understanding that if I can sit with my emotions, understand them, accept them, and process them, although painful today, prevents my triggers from the future. You can get to a really, really happy place when you've taken the time to process those. Thoughts on Breathing Every course that we do starts with breathing. When you find gratitude for having your breath, I think the world changes for every human. I use breathing techniques with my boxing team every day. Suggested Resources Book: Who Moved My Cheese? by Spencer Johnson App: www.Udemy.com App: www.choosemuse.com Bullying Story I've been on both sides of that bully fence. I had a really challenging time in my youth. My first moment of mindfulness was probably when I was 7 or 8 years old. I didn't have the mindfulness I needed at the moment, and I became a very violent young person. Someone was calling me a name, and I got very angry. This was my first time in court-ordered therapy. I attacked somebody for calling me a name. At that moment I was living a life of looking up to my peers. I look at that moment in my life very frequently about how I reacted and what I did. It was the first time I went to therapy.

Those emotions are trying to hijack us from doing what's actually important to us. If we're unaware of all these different emotions that we have and what they're trying to do then it's really easy to be distracted. I have mindful practices that I go through every single day that help to ground and center me. They help me get back on track. It's changed my life. Thoughts on Breathing I know there is Wim Hof and a lot of people have specifically practiced breathing. I recognize in myself that when I am praying, I slow my breathing down. As I slow my breathing down, everything slows down. My mind slows down, and any energy I have slows down. Although I don't practice breathing, breathing is part of the practice I have. Suggested Resources App: www.myfitnesspal.com Bullying Story When I was a kid, I was bullied some. I hit my growth spurt late. There were people that just picked on me based on my size. I don't know how mindfulness would have made a difference. Maybe for the bully. At the time it was painful but being a kid is painful, right. That's something I recognize more as I've gotten older. As an adult, I realize that bullying is an inner turmoil. The way that we treat ourselves. It's really easy to give ourselves a hard time.

Mindfulness helps us hear what someone else is saying and allows us to read between the lines. Mindfulness diffuses potentially explosive situations. It helps us get through whatever we need to get through. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing and focusing on the breath is important in my morning meditations. It helps me to get grounded. Breathing is a part of our cow hug therapy sessions. We encourage our guests to breathe and close their eyes and to connect with the cow. Suggested Resources Book: Communication With All Life: Revelations of An Animal Communicator by Joan Ranquet App: Audible and Podcast Apps Bullying Story Kids can be very cruel. There's this idea that there is a norm. Everyone's trying to fit in and be liked. Everyone's trying to get approval. No one's sitting in elementary school saying I am different and I love myself. We're all saying, “Let us fit in.” I think in the big picture, it's really cool that we get lost because when we become adults, we can become found.

When I have big emotions I shut down. And when I shut down, I reflect. For me, mindfulness and emotions go hand in hand. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is everything. It is life affirming for us and it's one way to remind us that we are worthy to be here on this planet. As we regulate and are mindful of our breathing, that helps our animal companions regulate.

A lot of times, I think what I've developed isn't good enough. Sometimes I think regarding my projects, I'm not doing them well enough, I'm not doing them fast enough. The self-criticism has been the hardest part.

It's essential, not just for breathing, but for managing overwhelm. Taking just two minutes to close your eyes, focus on your breath, and return to the present can make a huge difference.

Listen & Subscribe on: iTunes / Stitcher / Podbean / Overcast / Spotify Contact Info Website: https://shopx.co/ Most Influential Person Herman Strasbourg Effect on Emotions I see emotions as fuel, and by accepting them, I can redirect and take action. When you're not mindful, you can't fully accept what's happening. Without acceptance, you're resisting the situation. Resisting an emotion only amplifies it by giving it more attention, which in turn strengthens the emotion. Acceptance, however, helps you navigate through it instead of fueling it further. Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is incredibly powerful. I view it as a way to absorb energy from the universe. Deep breathing is especially helpful, and whenever I feel overwhelmed, I focus on my breath. This practice, like the Wim Hof method, helps me regain calm and composure, especially when I need to refocus. Suggested Resources Book: The Emerald Tablet of Hermes by Hermes Trismegistus Book: A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle Book: Reality Transurfing by Vadim Zeland App: n/a (avoid social media if you can) Bullying Story If someone is bullying you, it’s not excusable, but I try to see it from the perspective that they might be dealing with their own struggles. They may have challenging family circumstances, or maybe something traumatic happened, like losing a parent. You just never know what someone is going through. Approaching it with empathy might melt the ice around the bully’s heart, and sometimes, it can even lead to unexpected friendship. Of course, that’s much easier said than done.
