Ep. 62: Unlocking Deeper Consciousness Through Breathwork Mar 06, 2019

Show notes

Christian Minson is a former monk and Certified Transformational Breath Facilitator whose life purpose it is to help others connect with their higher selves through breathwork. Danny and Jill speak with Christian about what makes this technique different from regular breathing, and how we take something automatic as breathing for granted.

Show notes

We’ve heard first hand experience from Danny and Jill, and we’ve heard about Gerry’s life-changing discovery of ayahuasca, but is there any science to prove that this plant medicine makes an actual difference to mental health? Dr. Jeff of the Rhythmia Life Advancement center breaks down the physical process of what happens when we take ayahuasca, and how even though it iss a new cultural experience for most of us, we can all stand to benefit from the lessons it teaches.

Ep. 58: Authenticity for Yourself and Others Feb 19, 2019

Show notes

In the age of social media, it has never been easier to lie in order to appear more put together, but it’s also never been more important to share the truth: that we’re all human.

In this episode, Jill and Danny talk about what it means to be authentic, and what steps we can take to live our lives vulnerably and truthfully.

Authenticity: closing the gap between “should” and “want” [5:17]

Relatability gives you credibility [13:55]

People can smell the bullshit [17:33]

Bridging the gap so you can share authentically [21:03]

Honesty is important at the beginning [34:38]

Authenticity as a service to yourself [40:31]

Ep. 57: Policing Your Friends Feb 19, 2019

Show notes

When we surround ourselves with groups of people, we often want those friends to share in the same morals and sets of values that we have, but what happens if someone starts living or thinking in a way you don’t agree with? Is it our job to “police” our friends? How can we reconcile our want to trust with our need to control? Danny and Jill discuss this “policing” and whether or not it’s really in our best interest to control our peers’ actions.

Being policed by friends and peers: what IS integrity? [7:19]

Integrity is subjective [11:23]

The danger of deciding YOUR truth is THE truth [13:47]
