"And you you're getting chased by a lion and then you remember. Oh it's a dream and then you just make a decision to go into different dream. Is it as simple as that. Is it just that like whenever. I'm getting all caught in the darkness or my own bullshit or the watching fox news all the time or like fucking to sean hannity or any of the weird shit that i've found myself doing i always i come start coming back to myself. Nearly always with the help of some psychedelic. I'm kind of astounded by how it's just a choice like it's it's an maybe there's that maybe that's the painful part about it is that it's it's as much horror as there is in the world. There's that much good. But you're picking the horror to keep your mind fixated on european or it's like. This is really reducing things most idiotic level but like there have been times when i've been scrolling through my twitter and i'm thinking god twitter. What a fucking garbage platform. And then i remember. I've followed everybody who's tweets. I'm reading you know what i mean like. I decided to tune into this. Is it just a choice. Is it as simple as that. It is but it's a difficult choice because we are mind can choose something very quickly. Our mind moves at the speed of light. But we're actually making choice. That involves the entirety of our being. All the way to our densest part and the density of our body are the different ways in which receptor sites of our brain have been used to a certain level of melancholy. Been used to a certain level of stress and pressure so we actually have to choose not only once but keep choosing over and over and over again because the body moves like a tree that bends toward the light like we need to be the constant light sort and just wait for the branches to start moving that direction. Because it's not going to happen instantly. You can't say tree. There's the sun over there there's water over there. Send your roots there immediately and move your fucking limbs and get over there that light. It doesn't work that way. You have to be this kind of gentle loving father mother. That's just like come on. Come on buddy and be sweet to yourself. This was another adaptation. That came from the i. It was like just be sweet like i. Nobody i know i know. It's i know it's chaotic. I know that you have a little anxiety right. I know i can feel it. Takes deep breaths. That's it deep rats. All right keep going. You're doing great. Like just keep moving this way and you start just coaching yourself towards that direction and soon as you catch yourself scrambling back the other way. I know i know it's scary. It's all right come on. We got this back towards the light back towards the light. And it's just this constant steady steady process. So yes it's a choice but it's a choice that has to be made extended over a longer period of time for it to actually stick. Aubrey very i love these conversations me to thank you so much please keep you know. It's been too long and when you come you know you come when you're coming back from these places it really is like you tell me things that sometimes are reminders. Sometimes it's brand new information. Always you know what what what the healing. That's other great thing about healing. It's contagious the same way. Sicknesses contagious if you're doing yourself you might be surprised to find the people around you start feeling too and that always happens when i'm having a conversation with you so thank you operating. Yeah brother of course. I wrote a poem that came through during wasco that i wanted to share and we can. We can close on that. I'd love to hear it. Thank you all right. I a- wasco is not a drug it is the a it is the nothing will ever be the same. Change your fucking name scream at the top of your lungs ride in the agony of ecstasy surrender to the mystery submit to the intensity of the fracture. Dichotomy of god thrust into polarity drug. It is the antithesis of intoxication an annihilating sobriety waking you from the insanity of participation in your own delusion. It is the antidote for the constant mendacity of the pretending masquerading wounded lonely. Scared little boy and girl in a world that eats love spray painting the masterpiece with the graffiti of the judge. Showing you that all along. You've been wallowing in your suffering gasping for breath of truth of fish with iridescent rainbow scales hooked by seduction of power pulled from the sea of the divine stranded on the boat of purported progress fodder for the insatiable machine your pink flesh putrefying green reaching for a prescription a vaccination to cure the desperation of living in separation. All the while forgetting that you come from the ocean because all you see. Is the boat filled with dying aquarians. I a- wasco is not an answer is the answer to the riddle of why we are here. It is a place where magic is real. Where dragons guard the dragons. Guard the horde of god. The trees can speak which is open. Portals wizard seeing incantations devils tempt you your shadows come to dance and angels whisper in your ear. It is a journey into the underworld a descent into madness down a ladder of swirling vines. A burning away of temporarily in the white hot cosmic forge of eternal revocation to a reality where all things have meaning where a breath can change everything. Tobacco can heal anything and there is nothing you were able to hide. It's the most terrifying exhilarating life-affirming plunged into chaos to seize the pen of your destiny and ride an epic fucking story. I a- wasco may not be for you but no one can do it for you. Just know she is there and she loves you. The real you the one waiting to emerge you the not running anymore not hiding any more in the storm of your pain screaming. Do your worst. I'm here for it. All you i ask is not a drug..

"It would happen from manipulation of our brainwaves because a lot of these experiences these mystical experiences happen at in waking delta. I mean waking delta is one of the most profound brainwave states possible so if there was a technology that could get us to waking delta. I think that could be a really potent tool now. Ketamine gets you to waking delta. Nitrous gets you to waking delta the problem with waking delta is you don't really have access to remember the part of your brain that encodes and remembers the different medicine like the encounters that you had it. Just it doesn't stick it slippery so i think there are technologies that already actually exist that you know. Of course these are. I guess you could call them psychedelics. But they're psychedelics our technologies. You know they really are. And i would. I would be hesitant to you. Know really Champion technology that gave you access to those states but and made it a little bit too easy you know because this is not just. It's not just benevolent encounters that you have dark energy to the polarity just as in life it exists here and it exists there and i think the plants are like a great guide. You want mushrooms holding your hand. Want wasco holding your hand. You like you want these things to really hold your hand as you make this journey. And even better is if you have a shaman. Like the dragon. Who's there as well. Who can shrink anything that comes. In and of course we can learn those same techniques their own ability to accept to love what comes and then to move through them. So we're all learning in this process. But i do think that the although there could be a more simplified more facile solution to get access to these planes. I don't know if it's the right way to do like this. Might be the best way and you just have to pay the cost. You have to pay the toll like you can't cross the river sticks without paying the gold coin chiron or whatever you know you need. You need to pay the goal coin. Sometimes i go coin. Is your pain your vomit your endless diarrhea and really dealing with your own demons. Core kyron terrible currency to have to get paid. And what does he do all that goal was he all the entire. Oh great you're give me diarrhea. Okay river gold. But if that's what you got. I guess it might diarrhea safe. Yeah i just you know with Some of the things. I saw when i was taking kademi i it gave me a sense of like. They're being some kind of project there being some kind of like long term project that involved a kind of outreach program for lack of a better word and you know i feel like i'm it sounds reductive and silly but a general sense like oh no. We're coming this is this is getting in there like where you're at. There's so much offering where you're at. There's so much unnecessary suffering. And we're not we're coming and don't work mckenna's talked about this like i think it's a common vision that people have of this sense of like. Oh yeah you're part you and everyone were. Were all part of this project. And the project involves that place expressing itself more and more no matter the keenum of heaven appearing more and more and more not just as parables and stories but as actual like extruded matter like it pushing itself and just like that's all we are. That's what the soul is. We've ballooned our bodies out into this material realm and i don't know i just have always gotten the sense of like. Yeah it's you know why it's weird so weird right now and everyone's like shit. Things are getting weird. It's like well the reason it's weird because they're coming it's feel it's pouring hewlett same way some of these stories we resonate with them because they pointed truth. The two towers rise in in the middle. Earth in tolkien's world right. The two towers rise to dark wizards and you could imagine these. Dark wizards is anything mechanisms of power control enslavement greed. That we see these towers are more visible and more evident than they've ever been and so with that what happens. What's the natural reaction inadaptation. The fellowship comes together the orcs. The orcs have risen in the two towers and so the wizards the elves dwarves the hobbits humans. They all have to come together. And i think we're seeing some of that. That's happening as well. And that's like. I have an amazing amount of confidence that everything that we're seeing has been necessary to bring people together to get them beyond their petty differences right. Now we're in the time of differences but this fellowship is starting to brew. And in addition i also feel like to go to the game of thrones story when the dragons came to their to their land and they patched again and dragons were back they have this short scene. Where everybody's magic starts working like street. Magicians used to play with a little bit of fire. Now do all kinds of tricks with fire. All the conjure like magic was back in and it feels like now is the time where not only is the fellowship coming together but magic is more available. Like i've felt it more available. I felt myself capable of doing things that i've never been capable of in in these kind of spiritual states and i've seen it with so many friends like within the last two years since almost since the pandemic there's been an acceleration of people's ability to access really impressive healing gifts that are just like snapping and coming online and so it feels like as much as the darkness rises so too will the support and the help and the light and it's just this this natural balance to the order of things. Is it just a choice. Aubrey is that what it all boils down to. It's like is it just some simple like when you're having.

"The idea that i'm gonna burst into a place where there's a new plateau and and i won't slip down from that at least not slip very much. I think it's possible. And i only say it's possible because one of my mentors and teachers don miguel ruiz's like he got there i saw i witnessed it and i wish i would have been able to experience ramdas because i'm pretty damn sure that he got there too and so if anybody can get there it's possible it's fucking possible but i think it's just by creating new plateaus new plateaus that are stable footing stable ground and then just continuing to build to greater state. And that's that's kind of the goal but i don't know what plateau end on and i don't know where the line of demarcation where you call it enlightenment above this line i mean i don't know but i know that there's new plateaus that are available and i just reached one and it's definitely not anywhere close to enlightenment but it's it's better than i damn better than it was what that's one of the things trump has said that is consumed quite. It's literally back. A fusion which is confusion is on the continuum of enlightenment. Confusion is a quality of enlightenment because meaning no escape from enlightenment. Meaning there isn't a the moment you are aware of your confusion that the question is well. What part of us aware. What's the aware part. What's the holding the confusion. And then suddenly you realize oh right because just like what you're saying regarding the spectrum of sindian the current leaders beyond the denser side of things in the same way we i like to imagine that there are qualities or aspects of every individual that become not just denser but increasingly illuminated lightened no longer embodied but still in existence to the point where this thing that were experiencing. It's more like a root structure or something that's penetrating into matter and that you know that. That's that's a wonderful thing because there's a sense of like in the same way like your stories of iowa. Oscar they feed me. They feed these stories. They make their way into this dimension and they feed people. Ramdas is stories of taking mushrooms and having his psychedelic enlightenment. Or any mckenna's stories of gmt they're literally transmissions from this other realm. They come into this place. But i like to imagine that similarly it goes in the other direction to that are human stories are stories of limitation and suffer you all that it must go both ways right like there must be a desire on the other side as well and again. These are constructed by formations. I know there isn't any real wine necessarily other ones creating. But you know what i mean doesn't don't you think it goes both ways totally. I mean this is. But i think you're pointing to the actual crux of it. Which is we create all these separations body and spirit as if the body isn't the spirit and certain type of density right as if you can't use the body as a way to access the spirit i mean in the in the peak of difficulty could not possibly withstand any more of this it feels like the iowa vine in its infant fractionals was reaching up through my body was in my brain could control where i look was going through every and pushing out every toxin that emotional toxins and i've had and it was sweating out of my pores purging into the buckets. And the only thing. I had to use everything i could and one of the techniques was a type of tapping on my body right it was like a certain type of tapping lost was showing me. Like this is how you're gonna make it through. And if i i would try to stop doing it. Because i was tapping for like hours i would try to stop doing or or shaking like moving my hand in certain patterns or like making different like fast mu dras or my tongue would make these little insect sounds and like i had. I had to let this energy off and move it. But so much of it was about the body like as long as i was tapping the body it was accessing my spiritual self. In a way you just understand that it's all collapsed like this is just your spirit in a different density. And that's what it is. And so this is the divine god experiencing god in the way that only human being can because of what comes online from having sensory perceptions and smell and taste touch feel. But it's still just god in a different density in our spirit in the different density so that transmission is immediate got experiencing god in always in all forms and i think it's important to start collapsing. These artificial separations between body and spirit self and the divine. It's it's all it's all it's all the one it's all the one really and and it's also all of the separation to like. I understand make sense to talk about these different. They're different densities. You might as well call them and different words so we can communicate effectively and understand what people mean but also to have the dual meaning of all right. Like i really get. What's behind the maya. What's behind the illusion. Which is the university. Now do you like to entertain the idea that mckenna played around with this and a lot of many different people have like in when they've encountered these forms that you encounter when you're taking oscar de mt or a nice doses is still assignment and you realize. Oh this is real. This isn't bullshit this is a this is an dream state this is very real and then there's a feeling like i think you could take something here. I think you could literally plucked something from that place and bring it into this round. Have you ever played around with that idea that the whatever the particular imaginary yet very real differentiation between our level of experience in whatever that other places is actually thinning or that technology is creating the possibility that we're not going to just need iowa ska or dmc or mushrooms as the bridge. There's a potential to create a technological bridge. That's a little more like Stable i mean. That's a little less dependent on the plant medicines. It's certainly possible..

"Forgiven to be unforgiven. You know try to get true god to be mad at you. It's insane insane because it's your god to. I can't be mad at my children. You know. I make you mad. But i can't i i like. It's instantaneous forgiveness. I had my just yesterday by two. What two two and a half year old and a eight month old both of them at different times in the day yanked this shit out of my beard man just like fish vicious like you know how much that hurts fug herdsmen. Like if i like. When i was in austin i saw you i was like hey aubrey and yanked beers you'll be like fuck you man what happened to you. You will probably be doing this. Podcast but i think the relationship of god to the creation is is that and weekend like there's so much pride and ego and imagining that you could really upset the source. You know what i mean. There's a lie it's like it's sad that you're feeling guilty but it's also come on really like you think you're gonna like offend that thing from which all things come it's going to. You're going to be the thing where it's like god. Damn look at aubrey. Really fuck you praying for forgiveness and just heard a disembodied. No fuck you i know you mean it's but pre forgiven. I love it i and yeah i love that whenever i am taking psychedelics and the kind of viewing thing is happening. It's always the message. It's like come on now. Even come i love you. I love your okay. I love you and then it generally wrapped up in that some kind of like you. You should be enjoying this. This is for you. This is for you to lose enjoy and express love within not to be all but dragoljub terrified all the time but then i forget it when people project all of these ideas i mean we have a brutal self judge. I mean the devil as the judger is inside all of us. This is an entity that's within us and we'll project it on our deities. We'll project it on god will reject it on even on wasco. You know so. Many people will fall off the diet. They'll have some salt or they'll have some sugar in the iowa is going to punish me. I'm like what do you mean. I was going to punish you. I gotta loves you. I 'cause the spirit of the earth herself and you were made up of. The earth built atom by atom by her plants in her water. Her animals air. You think she's gonna punish you because you had some salt like no. I mean have respect and follow the traditions and allow a clean vessel. But there's no punishment there. There's no anger all of these things. These are human things these these are human tendencies as we're kind of wrapped in polarity but there's no need to project them on our deities because they're just not they're like i walk a will. It is a hellish brutal immensely challenging experience. It'll bring you to the blistering edge of what you're capable of but behind that all is love like i love you so fucking much that i'm going to heal you at all costs like that's what i was cassettes and it doesn't mean that i ask is for everybody and i want to make that clear. This is not a panacea if you've had psychological issues if you're not called to it it's not doesn't have to be for everybody but if you're ready and your called do it she loves you. She's going to heal you no matter no matter what because she loves the you. That's emerging not the you that is were god. You know that seems to be the key to get 'cause like i. I struggle all the time with judging myself and judging other people and i try to practice mindfulness so that when i'm looking around in the instantaneous judgment happens and i always think god you know how what a what a tremendous limitation to your experience of reality to always be like judging. Everything is a matter of habit or something you know. It's like it's really sad and it's really like turns the dimmer switch on the universe. But anytime i remember that thing. You just said which you're reminding me. I'm always forget it. You're seeing a process here. This person that person even your judgment itself or your habitual judgment. This is an evolving process. Right now that's where you're at and right now. That's where they're whatever it may be. Whatever lakewood free. Caesar's let's take free sneezes for example. You know what i mean. You're walking down the street. And somebody fucking blast that god damn loud dynamite level during a pandemic. I dislike i. That's why we made stocks. That's why you flip people in the sky sox and you put them in the town square. But but that's we're all in a process right now and that's such an important thing to remember and again it's so interesting. Why why do you think built into this. I don't know if it's built in. But why do you. Why is there this quality of profound forgetfulness. When it comes to being a human being why do we forget all these things. This is the thing that i think we love to think of ourselves. Like a machine. You know that you program some information new machine you type it into your google doc. It's there it's permanent. You can access it forever. But we're not we're living organism that's taking on all kinds of different energies. How many times people ask me like you're going to do i walk again. Aren't you healed already. Like what do you mean healed already. Like that's a destination and i'm not going back into the same world that made me sick in the first place. My own. same ideas. My stresses my judgments perceived inadequacies in my own insecurities and all of these things i take. I take those onto certain degree so the process of healing the process of remembering ongoing. Because we're constantly rewritable if we are if you want to use the computer analogy where a rewritable drive. That's constantly getting different programs programmed in and different codes downloaded. And and so it's it's a constant evolving process because the world is not set up in a way that's designed to remind us i mean there's so many forces out there that want us to forget and then want to provide a solution that you pay for or insurance pays for that can actually make you well but it doesn't actually make you well. It just keeps you in this perpetual state of maybe a little bit better reaching for something. That's a little bit more comfortable than the current state. You're in but the process is just an never ending ongoing process. And you can look at that like i can't handle it. I want it to be done or just say no. This is this is part of being alive like you just chop would draw water continue. Continue to clean you to heal. Open yourself more and more to love and really learn to love life to the greatest degree. Possible while we're here. Do you think you'll ever go into that light that you're talking about. Do you think you'll ever just like really do the thing. Well i i can do it temporarily right like and that's the beautiful part like as my iowa. Journeys have evolved. I mean it's so fucking hard dunkin like it's so hard. I can't describe the i've done a lot of difficult things. Long sweat lodges l- sweat lodges climbed freezing mountains. Wim hof without it. My shirt on and sleep sitting me and dealt with the immense stress of birthing. This company and i was in an open relationship and had everybody all my girlfriends. Hate me further. You know years straight through some difficult things but nothing. Nothing is difficult for me. As these i waspa- journeys for the most part. It's the most profoundly challenging thing and in that challenge. There's this adaptation that that comes about. And i had some beautiful adaptations from these challenges and these beautiful liberation. I mean i was carrying before this i was carrying heaven heaviness that i just couldn't shake i just couldn't shake it with the my other medicine where i could burst out of it and i would feel free and like okay. I'm free for a moment and then it would all just collapse back on me. And i think that's why it was called back to the dragon because he could put me into a place where it was just a a new plateau with stable footing. And i'm not. I don't have so much. Overconfidence say that. I'll never slip back into the macher of storms. May not come again. But i feel like i have stable ground under my feet again. And that's what i want to continue to build from..

"Shamans kind of see like people. Living in default reality is like colorblind. Or something just sort of stupefied your something you know like. Is that the condition that were existing is just sort of. We've been numb down to the point where you have to say that i mean i. I know you're you're i agree. I know these things are are as real as we are. This is something that my my teacher tells me. All the time is like there there israel as you you know. They're in which might not be that real as real as we are. And there's a little bit of on the like because we're compacted into matter. We have this kind of weird snobbish nece or something because we have this density those even if we are mildly aware of those beings or you see out of the corner of your eye. You're lucky enough to be sitting the woods and you look off into the woods and you see one of the things or whatever so many people have seen it a lot of times if people see that. Well that's my imaginations running amok today. And then they just forget about it. But do the shamans see us kind of spiritually illiterate or something sort of brutish and just lost in a real dense layer reality. I think they look at us like a multidimensional radio that is just only able to tune to a specific channel normally. And when you take the medicines or you sit with someone who's tuned other channels. You can open up different channels two different dimensions and access information from those dimensions. So that's really what you're doing and the more you open up those channels through medicine use or being around people who have those channels open because that's one of the things about being a human as we're in this shared reality. We pretend that it's all about us. It's just us but we're always in a shared field so we're we're in the shared fielder in shared medicine field. We opened up a whole spectrum of channels and those channels go all the way to the first or night the mentioned depending on your cosmology where the divine is pure university. Either the ninth which is void or the first which is the energy the word the creation of the divine all unit so it goes from there to all of the different layers. We're hanging out somewhere in the third. And there's all of these other dimensional realities that you can start to tune to in open up to and you know. I think it's not so much that it's a judgment that we don't have those channels open. We just haven't taken the time in care to open the channels and we also have stories. We have the wrong stories. We're not told that we're a multidimensional being now and it's possible for us to open to that. And without that believe half of our bridges closed we have to clear at least the first half of our bridge so that we open to these different things and sometimes that does mean imagination. Your imagination can be part of the bridge but something from the other side also has to meet you on that bridge and that's really what happens in these ceremonies. That's what ramdas used to say is imagination. Is the gate like that is the that is it. That's the way you that you know. People he would say. I love my my imagination is real. This is a a tool and it's again another. I think another sign of the times. Is that the imagination is like it really does get kind of. It's like if you talk about your imagination too much. It's like okay baby. You're gonna you're gonna do you want some you wanna coloring book. It's like you wanna you wanna do finger paints you machination. It's like that's the world they were in where where the imagination insanely fast simulator. Where instantaneously using your will you can picture just about anything might be a wagner muddy version of it. But you can picture so what you're saying is this is one of the this this this thing that you're calling the bridge which i'd love to hear more about. This is like something that you use to cross this bridge into. Whatever this realm. Is that what you're saying. Yeah a lot of times for me in particular. They'll be kind of a fuzzy sense of things that will be available almost like it's it's there but it's not quite there and if i use my imagination to start to what does it look. I can start to build it in my mind. I'll start using these kind of legos of imagination to build something and then all the sudden that thing will really come through and so and catch what they call the bridge that chuck so the chuck arenas is the bridge to another form of consciousness and and i think imagination can be a huge part of that the openness the belief and then of course you know the medicines and everything else that i mentioned but Yeah absolutely when. I was when i'm in the deep deep quantum you know and have experienced what i believe. It feels like to be disembodied to have to be just in the soul of the body. Everything that you want to appear appears because you think of it you think of it and it comes to you is doesn't like it's not like you navigate through movement. It's you're there in the quantum of all possibility. And if you wanna speak to someone you just think of them and then they appear to you you know and this is how this is how it works. Okay okay sorry to cut you off. Continue no problem. The bardo state in tibetan buddhism you have just described. this is how it's been described to me and in in so this is a disaster for many people who've died because they have an especially. You haven't had any practice taking medicine. Don't who have been fully some who have subscribed completely to the idea that oh yeah you're just your body and then once that.

"Well if there was a covering of the planet that had changed the gasses in the atmospheric pressure and a lot of things that can influence longevity and carbon dioxide in the bloodstream and the nutrient density plants and many other factors and that all fell from the sky and flooded the planet in completely changed some of gases in atmospheric pressure and just the way of the earth operates that the lifespan that people were able to have prior to that event is probably no longer realistic numb. I don't know if that's the case. But but i really would be surprised if in the next few years. We're seeing anything much longer than like about one hundred and twenty-one or so yes space on everything and then there are those people out there that are like look if you can make it relatively healthy another ten fifteen years. You've got a good shot at one fifty right. What is the what is the. What is the argument that they're trying to make you know that you think that makes that makes sense that when you stack a lot of these these hacks that theoretically you could repair dna too fast and afraid you can stave off immune system degradation at a fast enough rate. You could stave off. You know the natural mutations that are built into us you know again from dna repair standpoint and investment. Afraid and you. Can you know build up carbon dioxide tolerance and you can repair tissue more quickly things like hyperbaric chambers and use red light therapy and all these things that when you tackle that theoretically you could increase life span. But it's all just like on paper right now like i haven't seen any hard evidence that that's actually possible. Yeah i mean like some rodents for example. They're showing like a twenty to thirty percent increase in lifespan. But these are like highly controlled laboratory environments with specially bred rats and mice. And there's a lot of confounding variables when it comes to humans but you know doesn't matter lake down that's why haven't invited you know these particular guys on my show who really proposing that. Because i'm you know. I get i get in there in the nineties faulk. I'm still that's a long ass if you're making maximum like for me it's about impact is not a bad if i can make the but if i can increase my health span to the point where the impact making with whatever lifespan that. I'm genetically programmed to have approximately I'm i'm super happy with that. So it's it's just about taking care of your body so that you can. You can make the biggest impact that you can enjoy for the longest right exactly so i. I think we even had this discussion before. I don't want to be one of those guys who's cold and hungry and libido lists and lives in extra you know. Let's say live an extra thirty years. But i'm spending twenty of those extra thirty years in a hyperbaric chamber or a cold tank or or fasting or reducing my ejaculation frequency. Or anything else that we know could potentially help out a little bit with longevity like you gotta draw the line at some point. And so i think that especially in the health. There are people who are who are kind of returning back to to your idea a little while ago. How choose activities. They're getting late of time. Just trying to work on time when they could just be out enjoying life and other people you talked about ejaculation frequently. I heard something from kyle. That was talking about how every time you jackie late you're depleting magnesium zinc through. Your jacket is very much. I don't know if you've seen the size of jack. Like i just did my daddy kit recently to store my sperm and and just check up on what the counters and everything. I mean You know so i. Of course got to got to witness that and the minerals on depleting. I would imagine that by putting some sea salt on my steak tonight and taking zinc tomorrow morning. Yeah that's easily like one load right there. So yeah it's it's it's that whole concept is more about like your jing. Your cci your life. I it's more about that than nutrients minerals because yeah your your body does not group through. I would say anything more than like a very very small meal in terms of the amount of nutrients and minerals necessary to make semen good or sperm so every day. Then that's fine. I'm back to it. Yeah i mean you know given your energy a and i i get the whole concept but the concept is not one of nutrient or mineral depleted. Right yeah that makes sense ben. This beautiful conversation man. That was a great thing to end onto. Like how much sea salt do. You need to make enough spurring. What point do your adrenal. Glands just not have enough to go around and you're going to be playing pickle out there and you're gonna cramp you'll be like wash. I came last night. I didn't take my sea salt this morning. I'm sorry guys. I gotta go in the house right. I mean we gotta we gotta keep it real for people. That's right talk about all different things for your health. Your heart save. The world savor the world and feed your semen aztec features. Even tadpoles need. That's right that's right and you got going on. You want to tell people about you. Know what we kind of did.

"Saw. Jesus jesus said me too many really really meant it like nothing fucking felt shameful or horrific or painful. That happened anyone like the deepest shameful thing that he did not experience himself. And that's why you can actually like leave all that. Shame behind me. Because he took on all of that so yeah the the me too isn't just like yeah. You know whatever. I i you know i got cut up to and fell in bruce my knee when i was a kid and you know i had to deal with with peer pressure. No it's it's like every last torture that you can ever imagine every piece of flesh being ripped off your body like all of that. Yeah and i had also in that. In the meditation he gave me a across and on the cross was inscribed me too is like a reminder like something is there was a message like i need to remember this so when i get lost in my own you know self-reproach my own self judgment to remember like you know as as all of us because if you embrace the totality of everything you know like christ consciousnesses. It's the all it's the divine. And of course i'm putting some of my own beliefs in here. We'd have slightly different beliefs but after. Yeah that's why we highlander. Done but fundamentally i understood and that was like a beautiful reminder to me like me to ensue removed all that judgment but then the cross itself was a really powerful symbol. That i haven't really connected with. Because i've almost taken it as just a signifier of your belief in christianity understood that there is that moment before you know when he knew he was going to be crucified. And he's still said yes you know but he was going through at that night. I mean you read about it. God why have you forsaken me right. There was like feeling of abandonment. Like a why. Is this my path. Where i'm bloody tears right like. But he's still said yes and there was this amazing courage and so to me. That cross was reframed in my own. Mind at least like holy shit. That is a fucking symbol of ultimate courage to say yes to no matter what life throws at you right and just be like okay is is a symbol of courage and up to a certain point was basically be if you were to get cross tattooed on you the equivalent of getting like an electric chair or a noose tattooed on you. It's like why the hell would you envisage a frigging curse sign of murder. It's a sign of death. Not only that a sign of like the worst death that that the worst criminal would be given like even. I believe it was cicero. Who wrote how it was the most horrific death imaginable crucifixion. Why would anybody wanna get something like that tattooed or like put on the door of a church or something like that but now it no longer means that now it means now it means courage now. It means complete setting aside of shame. Now it means a new heaven and a new earth and it's like the this symbol that went from being a curse to being a blessing that went from being the most horrific thing imaginable to being the most glorious promise available in so yeah had like the cross something different now than i think it was before jesus and Yeah a super powerful symbol. Now yeah as we go through this conversation that we're starting to make a lot of different different categories of things that once they're fulfilled. You'd live this rich rich life. I mean we've talked about community and we've talked about these meditative practices in connection to nature and then the rituals the rights of passage that your children read through the you know. Then everything that you're about. But then also this kind of belief in this distinct belief that you have in everybody's belief doesn't have to be the same but really walking the walk of that belief. Not just kinda intellectually kind believing but like really living living in your belief in that deeply fulfilling and then having your belief and then your purpose and then everything woven together and guiding principles like live like you're gonna live forever. You've painted this beautiful picture in this show of really kind of a formula for living a life that's as rich as can possibly be lived and giving the opportunity to turn this life into into heaven. Obviously tim ferriss show and he said if you gonna make a billboard you know put one thing onto the billboard. What would it be like well. It'd be welcome to heaven population. Everyone you know like like here. We are everybody like. Here's a here. We got it like here. We got it. We're gonna make it that or not. You know this. This is a choice we have right and and and it does really come back down to that foundational principle that that was pretty much the essence of jesus and that was love other people. Slow the people like an end. It sounds so simple but once you start to frame everything that you do in the day including the way that you build your business right coming live in touch. How many people are you gonna love. You know at the end of the day. The budget does have to be attended to. But we'll take care of itself if the bottom line is is how many people can reach people. Can we all. How many people can we love. And it's the same with our personalized to like. Just this idea of not living selfishly. Not grasping at straws. Because you have that confidence that you're gonna live forever. And then knowing that with that life like the very best thing you can do is just go out and love other people and loving other people means loving the planet. It means loving. God it means loving yourself right but but it's all a lot more larry between all those things when we try to pretend we think. Oh this is me and my house in the news my neighbors and my it's like we make separations between this or my mind and my body.

"I just live with this forever. just just pure. Just leave me here. Just leave all these molecules in my bloodstream. Good i'm not guilty about not accomplishing anything in life. This is just perfect place. I think kevin will be like that. Either i think that heaven will just be exactly earth as it is now but perfect where we can still create and we can still build and we can still draw and color and take baths and play music and make love and be with our pets and do everything that i really think that we are intended to do in the first place but in a pure and clean and An toxin free and sin free environment. Where everything's just perfect. And so because of that when an opportunity gets presented to me or a new skill or a new instrument watercolor versus oil versus scratch board versus sculpting versus glassblowing. I think to myself you know what. I haven't finnity have infinity to be able to do any of this stuff because i think that that's what is going to be like and and i realize not. Everybody believes that but dude like once. That of like lightbulb went on onto my head like that. The whole idea of just being guilty about not doing all the things just vanished. That's huge. I mean. Obviously i have different religious ideology and cosmology than you do but just going to behead you after this podcast you got get a paint mark on my chest. If another one very you play tennis and nylander there can be only one afterwards. But i we play big tennis but ultimately the idea that because there is some value to the stoic belief memento mori remember. You're going to die because it gives impressions to the to the the preciousness of the moments we have but it can also if you twisted slightly off and miss the point we can put you in a rush. Feel that myself. I'm in a hurry way too much. But when you're talking you know the idea of like live like you're gonna live forever. There's something like my whole body just Yeah that feels good right. Let's say you're not gonna live forever or let's say it's mental trickery pretty damn good mental trickery any and it works in You know you you do have to you. Just alluded to strike a balance like that doesn't mean to hammock all day because you're gonna live forever so as a matter. I mean there's a great book called. don't waste your life by author. Really liked new john piper and he gets into decided i he never wants to be like seventy years old with his wife driving golf carts around a beach and fishing hours like he wants to help people and love others and like i think about it this way like if you were going to let legisla just play the game like if you were gonna live forever and if you knew that you were going to experience like immense joy in the ability to do you anything everything pleasurable on a perfect earth for the rest of all tiny. We needed fucking perfect earth earth. This is amazing. I think almost this is a choice to make at least close to heaven. Yeah like you. We have that choice available. Yeah we we in my belief is that is that the world's game better like i don't believe in the coming apocalypse or and i think the world's getting better and better we got speed bumps along the way but i am. Actually what is technically you'd call me. A post millennial christian and what that means is that. I believe that all the talk in the bible about you know an in revelations about dragons and apocalypse and you know people think as the chinese black helicopters and the beast is bill gates and whatever I believe all that was just prophesying. The destruction of the holy city of jerusalem. And that everything you read about that took place like between about sixty and eighty ad and that from that point on the world gets better and better and better and we're not going to hell in a handbasket and yeah we. We have little things that happen along the way but my belief is is this. This earth is gradually becoming more and more perfect. And so i i very positive mindset when it comes to that but backs that mind game if you did believe that you're gonna live forever and it was going to be that good and you did have all this time on your hands will be the number one thing that you would do and the conclusion i've come to is the number one thing that you would do is you. Go tell your buddy. Hey look we gonna live forever. He slow down. You can enjoy life you can save your family and build community and not be grasping grasping grasping and in rushing in stressing in in so basically that comes down to some semblance of the golden rule. Right if you were gonna live forever. What's the number one thing you would do. You love others right because by loving others you're spreading that wealth you're spreading that message and so i think of the earth do because obviously like if the hell out of our environment by loving the earth your loving others and that's definitely not. I mean that that's another thing that i'm not ashamed of when it comes to to being a christian but it certainly something that i think is sad. This idea of what is called. In christianity the dominion mandate. God made the planet and handed over to human beings and told them take dominion over. This earth is yours and so we build factories and and we know strip oil from the ground and we over-fish and in and we in some cases over hunt and and you know we eat doritos cheetos and monocrop soy and we'd at the church potlucks and The dominion mandate was a call to be a gardiner to care tenderly for this plan been placed upon and to foster if animal husbandry and and taking care of the soil and learning all the plants and and knowing the sacred intelligence of all the herbs and growing things that was the placed around us and and instead you know they dislike posts reformation scientism logic rationalism based christianity has resulted in the complete loss of connection to the sacred intelligence of the planet in caring for it. Because you know. God forbid we be all. Woo like the pagan shamans. And be whatever you know talking to to vines. And and so yeah. There's there's a total disconnect. I think is is of sad with certain extent because we live in a magical world and is conversation like this is probably helping push that evolution is. The thing is is that people think because the bible is fixed and no new passage or there that a religion like christianity isn't evolving. We'll bullshit i mean. Look the christianity of the seventeen hundreds hundreds in the fourteen hundreds inquisition. Look at it. Now look at it from the eighties. When people were still promoting hellfire and brimstone and gays. We're all going to hell. And now you look out. And like the whole thing is evolving. It is far more living than people realize in and that gives me. Actually a lot of i like that. I like when things are like flexible. And things can be replenished in refreshed with in reevaluated. Even something as simple as as plant medicines which are often vilified especially in christianity because they are considered to be the equivalent of a lack of sobriety of drunkenness. Which is which is warned against in the bible for what i think would be sound societal reasons why you don't want a bunch of drunk. People walking the streets thrown bottles windows and get in fights the wherever like that makes sense rather than just built in societal stability. But when you go back and you look even something like the bible and you look at a two different forms of cinnamon ceylon in cassia. You know asian cinnamon that That technically acting as as as side chrome enzyme inhibitors and allowing for other molecules to stay active in the bloodstream. For longer periods of time and those are combined with for example Myrrh and frankencense and even some forms of cannabis. And there's a. There's actually a tree. That's very much like iowa skin. I i'm taking on the title. Yes the the acacia tree There's there's lots of examples especially among early jewish practices of these type of things being usually we read about in the song of solomon. These crazy mixes that when you look at. Them and analyze chemically are technically very strong aphrodisiacs. Or you look at every tried to make one no. I haven't actually on my list of things they're gonna live forever. I have so. I vaporize sometimes organic tobacco with a little bit of cannabis with essential oils like blue lotus.

"Breasts and partridge in a pear tree. Check out butcher. Box dot com slash. Ben how does this thing work. It's like a halo. that goes around head. Exactly it goes around your head or render neck. It's a magnetic signal that's imprinted with the same frequency as whatever molecule that. They're trying to simulate and it causes the same electrical reaction within the cell but the cool thing is soon as you flip it off. That molecules no longer hanging around your bloodstream. Can have it on caffeine. As soon as i turn it off. It's not as though. I'm up for four hours with disrupted sleeps like as soon as you turn it off. The alertness goes away. So how do you measure the frequency of chemical like md ama or alcohol underground silo bill deep within the ground protected from all other frequencies that you then isolate that molecule in and measure the magnetic. You're not kidding frequency. And the reason the sound silly is because it sounds like i'm kidding. And then i talked to their scientists who doesn't listen that's basically what they talking not licensed this technology from some fda medically cleared. Wearable that was originally designed for something epileptic seizures. Or something like that. I i forget but they've they've done that same thing. I didn't really believe it. Until i started use it and actually worked. Remarkably well remarkable. Yeah but anyways. I put the cd on for for the nap and back to the reason that i do that is because about seven thirty after. I've kinda done all my morning. Stuff gathered the family on the porch. And we all sit cross laid in the sunshine. If it's a winter we were in the living room by the fireplace and we. We basically all have journal and we close our is for one minute. Just connect to our body. Just breathe and connector body. And then i had this whole thing that goes on on the inside timer app on my phone. I have a program for seven minutes after the first minute than it dings for the next two minutes all we do is gratitude and we have our journal there that we can stop to write. What is we're grateful for about. But those two minutes just all gratitude breeding gratitude and your heart center and writing down. What grateful for the next two minutes are dwelling upon who it is. You wanna send positive emotions to that day who you wanna pray for who you wanna serve who you wanna help and you write down that one person and you're just on them with laser focus the entire day whether it be just positive emotions you send their way whether it's prayers on this phone call tax if they're someone local you know doing something nice for them whether it's delivering dinner. Just gone up and knock on the doors who need help with anything and then the final two minutes just reconnecting to self and then we finish with tapping so when we're in that state at the very end of the seven minutes will tap over heart center over our wrist to create an anchor for that same feeling of peace that we developed after those seven minutes that we can return to during times of stress the rest of the day with with that anchor that we've said by tapping the same location and so within all get up and we do giant family hug together and just hold each other for like a minute after. You've done that meditation so ends eight minutes long. It lasts about seven with the hug and everything. And it's about eight minutes and then If there's and then all all this ask you know about everybody's day to mess k. What's everybody doing today. You know where you're going to be here where you here and that we can plan like when's dinner going to start we're going to be and then everybody just like off to the races the rest of the day and i worked from homes. We see each other and we cross paths throughout the day and then at the end of the evening before we go to bed we return back to those journals. We all closer. Is we do in the morning. It's like a six count in six count in or six count in six count out breath work in the evening. We go with a longer. Xl we'll do a four eight breath work. You close your eyes and you watch yourself like a movie character through the whole day. Like how did i wake up. What did i do what i read in the morning. How did i spend my morning. What have for breakfast. What did i do between breakfast and lunch. What it eat for lunch. How did i spend my afternoon. How did i spend my evening the entire time. You're watching yourself like a movie character in your mind in the third person. You're asking yourself what good i do this day. Meaning what was that. What was i proud of that character about whereas that rooting for them where. I knew that they were making the right decision. Look i've done better this day where that character fail. Where do i feel like they were more than villain than the hero whereas not rooting for them. Where do i wish i could like. Leapt you that screen and told him to make a different decision. Not the right decision and as were visualizing that you have permission like take pauses and right down in your journal. What you're discovering and then finally the last question we down in the journals is whereas i most next to my life's purpose whereas almost purpose filled today because what happens is quench really as you go through that every single day you not only identify even if you don't have a purpose statement even though you know we we all do and i think it's important. You can almost like reverse engineer your purpose statement when you're doing this practice by identifying as you go through okay. This is where. I was in his own smile on. My face. time was flying. By as though i had no awareness of time i felt as though this was coming easy to me i felt like i was using a unique skill set. I was born with or doing something. I was really good at when i was a kid. Some that makes me happy and fills me with joy now but you write down what it was. That was the most purposeful activity of your day. And it stacks because you know. There's something you've failed at like like for me. I was writing for like a week. Didn't play my guitar today. Didn't play my like my manley guitar. Not my pickle. Ukulele on the tar i got. I got through like a week of that and like for a while we would share like we would actually say what good i do but we decided to start keeping it private and if you wanna share you can not only kind of well it might make a formative almost certain extent out sharing you think about it you think about when we get some times. It'll be something super embarrassing to share it like you. Just keep it to yourself and dwell without and work on it yourself but one night i. This was like three months. Ago i go. We finished it all up. And then afterwards we'll say a prayer and then we all just go to bed like that's after storytime this after dinners of everything a fish ryan like. I am never going to write this down again for the past week. I've written. I wanted so now like even just two minutes right. I'll take even if it's one song is like the g. c. easy song in the face of the planet. I take my guitar least from it. So i never have to be watching that movie character in my mind wondering why. They're not doing that. One thing they know brings him joy they know they love. They know just connects them to the frequency of music. The joy that they get from it but they're skipping every day and so these things stack or i was most purpose filled. When i was writing today. I was most purpose when i was riding today. I was purposeful. Donors.

"That's thought works dot com slash careers before we get into it and the book went. Ask you one more question. Having been raised with this sort of bizarre perspective afford different parents knowing the parents are listening to this. What would you. What advice would you give to parents based on your own upbringing. Why i think a lot of times people. I hear parents who they think that the kid needs the parents to stay together no matter what that's like the most important thing but my parents split up when i was two and it's the perhaps the greatest blessing of my entire childhood because not only did i get more incredible influences. I also got to see instead of them. My mom and my dad forcing a relationship. That wasn't loving. I got to see two models of really loving relationships where everybody was happy. And i think kids will mirror what they see if they see resentment in unhappiness in discord. You know their way more perceptive than we think and i think if they see that then they're gonna mirror that unhealthiness whereas you know if you can show them happiness in love however you want to get it on conventional conventional. I think that's a lot more important than you know. Just trying to walk this traditional route so walk me through how you get to on it. What is the path that is led you there and this is the gathered from reading the book and that's something that i keep finding as a common theme between hundreds of people interview. Is that the path to getting where they do is almost never linear so in addition to that. I'm curious why you think that's the case. Like why is it that most these paths are never linear. Yeah i think it's because you know you get to different vantage point. And then from that vantage point you have different options. But you're kind of blind until you get there. It's like you know you're climbing climbing in the new breakthrough and then you can actually look around and see you know things beyond the tree line. It's like multiple different tree. Lines trying to get above so that you can see what your own skill set is. What the market is dictating. What you really want who you really are. You know. there's these kind of moments where you just get more visibility and with visibility. You can really chart your course a little bit better and sometimes you just get you know some fortunate circumstances that kind of come in in those are gradual. Those kind of come out of nowhere to a certain degree you know. It's a great connection that you made and for me. It was something of all of that you know. I started a an online marketing company after graduating university of richmond and digital marketing and work with a bunch of different clients and had some success. Tana failures everything i started on my own was a failure but i had some success rather companies and other clients and and really the ultimately i. I knew that. I wanted to create something myself. You know i wanted to create not only a company but a movement i wanted to create something that reflected what i felt inside like what i felt like i had to give to the world and so started and found on it but i found it under the pretense i had to be really unique and really niche and create something that was like you know not just something that was like a whole new category and i.

Organizes there that information at finds into a disc profile which is a really easy to understand personality profile better than that though. It teaches you how to talk to them. That has a conversation coach. Based on what. I'm going to be talking to the person about and the modality that i'm gonna use to talk to them so basically says i need to email bill to make a good first impression and it gives you a little sound bytes based on bills linked in profile. And it's amazing. Everybody should use crystal nose. Crm s keynote abuse by the way none of these people were affiliated with right right. There's no need advertiser huge talked about talked about four and it's good good My first one is rev dot com read on com. Rav a dictation service Let's imagine you leave a meeting and you want to dictate A follow up email. You will describe your phone. Open up the revs. Aft- dictated now. You can do the same thing with siri but ravitch's really reliable Person on the. There's a human being you're actually dictates. Transcribes it if it's longer form it's probably better like if you wanted to Dictate an article or you think. There's a really good idea for an article you can dictate. Let them do it. And then come back and modify edited. But i think it's a great time saver it's about a buck and a quarter a minute so it's pretty reasonable. Chances are you're not going to have really long things you're going to be doing in there. But dot com is one of my favorite tools. Love it my next one. That i doubt a lot. Same deal no affiliation whatsoever. Huge fan of gong dot com. Many of you have heard of that.

They're called shorts and they're less than a minute and but they have to be vertical. So you can do a short for youtube and also repurpose it on instagram. Or or one of the other verticals sites. But you need. You need a tripod. if you're going to do any kind of stuff like that. I think the days of holding it for certain things but if you're going to produce something that you want hundreds of thousands of people to see i think you need some kind of stable base for your found Tripods are easy amazing.

"My guest today is somebody. Some of you might follow regularly Aubrey Marcus. He's a modern day philosopher. He's the author of the bestseller own the day in an entrepreneur of the wellness company on it. You might think of Aubrey as a bio hacker whose general approach is total human optimization. But we catch up with him. Discover what optimization looks like during a pandemic. And what we learn is practices and perspectives to simply accept what's happening day by day. Welcome Aubrey. How are you? Doing well, thank you good to talk to you wonderful to talk to you, I think last we saw each other was many years ago. Either on a mountain top or a boat. It was at the mountain. Actually yeah, that was the first time and I remember. That was the first time I tried to music. which is great, but I think the recent improvements to the s have been really welcomed. I love everything that you guys have done with that I think you so much. It's super appreciated. So. Let's dive into your work and what you've been working on recently, but somebody who spend their life thinking about how to optimize every day and make the most from every day. How do you think about making the most from a day? That's during pandemic or a riot? Well, it's interesting. I think you have to be aware. I mean awareness is really the key, and I think you have to be aware of any pressure that's coming from the collective and a lot of times. We think of ourselves as isolated, but we're really not were interconnected beings, and we really feel what's. What's going on so I think it's just having awareness that we're going to be sensitive to everything that's happening and that sensitivity might cause us to actually wall off even more and become less sensitive, just because it's a bit overwhelming, and all of this is fine. There's no judgment any action, or we might really engage with it and just feel it all or some combination of both and I've certainly experienced all of that. We at some points I just WanNa turn everything off and just unplug from everything that's happening at large and then other times. I WanNa Watch, everything and. And talk to everybody and get out there in the mix and see what's happening out there in the world, and really feel it, but other than that. I think it's really for me. I'm writing my new book, so that's kind of forced isolation. anyways, you can't really do a lot when you're dedicated to writing under a deadline, so it hasn't been too different lifestyle for me. Other than just managing what's happening in the collective is you support other people to manage? What's going on right now? I think this is a time to really lean into the personal practices, so whatever those. Those things are that are the best for you. I have a host of them. I'm sure a lot of the listeners do as well the muse being one of them, but there's so many other words like breath work for example at spent a good amount of time with Wim Hof and the combination of the breath in the cold is a great way to shift state. GET CLARITY, move emotions so I. think that's been really valuable. I'm a big proponent of ecstatic dance, and for those of you who don't understand what ecstatic dance is. It's not dancing on ecstasy. It's actually. Moving your body in direct superfluity with the music, so that it's collapsing the mind and creating this kind of trance state where you're just moving without thought without self judgment, and that will actually put you into that translates really ancient practice at a lot of different traditional have engaged in are these ceremonial dances, and really you can do it by yourself for there's ecstatic dances that are hosted around the country to participate in dance I would. Would go to something in Toronto called the move. Where Hopley one hundred people would get together and dance for about a two hour period over this amazing arc of music, so it start off slow, and it would come to this ecstatic he crescendo, and then soothe you back down again. It was incredible to just let everything go and just dance, and just be yourself in the moment. There's no gentleman from anybody. Everybody's doing their own thing. And with the pandemic, obviously, that became very impossible. You don't want one hundred people in a crowded studio and so now been dancing with my four year old. Exactly! Living Room. Let's put it on no judgment. Go Wild have fun. He gets on. The trampoline goes crazy and we just do it. That's the beauty of being a kid. Is You just move and express freely without really worrying about what you look like? I think dancing is one of those things that we have so much judgment attached to how we move. It's like a performance even when we're dancing by herself. So really kind of just getting rid of that whole construct, and allowing yourself to move again, so much of our motion and everything is really stored semantically in the body as a great book called. Called the body keeps the score really makes that case brilliantly, but it's allowing yourself to move and shake just like a dog runs into the screen doors. Something like the first thing they do, is they? Shake it off well. We don't really shake it off very well. We have a lot of things that disturb in trouble our mind, but were not really moving it through our body. An effective way so dancing is absolutely one of my favorite ways to do that. Dancing and breathing. I mean those are really absolutely my go-to Stephanie
