As you become more self-aware, you will notice several "mini-egos" that get triggered without your will. I talk about their characteristics, the role of the left-brain in its enforcement of these, and the effects of the attention on these mini-egos during Self-Observation.

I discuss the most important skill that you'll need to start a self-observation practice which led to my own awakening. I only include those aspects which supported my own personal experience. I do this so that you too can awaken to your true self.

This is the story of my own spiritual awakening and what I believe is fundamental to your own soul's awakening. I'm really excited for you to listen to this episode and discover what I truly think is the key to start or continue your spiritual journey!

This is a short story about an insight I had while waiting in line at the grocery store.

Do you have any techniques that have helped you get over your anger quickly? I do. I'm sharing 4 personal stories along with what I did to get past my resentment with you in this episode so that I can help you live a freer, more awakened life!

In this episode, I describe a method that helped me become less critical toward myself and others.

I walk you through steps for how to get over your fear of conflict, including a HACK that will allow you to stay calm during the conversation. I include an easy way to remember the conflict resolution steps. Finally, I explain why you're putting yourself in danger by avoiding conflict and what steps you can take to eliminate the fear of confrontation completely.   

The conflict I'm talking about here isn't expressing simple disagreements or unpopular opinions here. I'm talking about how to resolve conflict that's associated with your anger, impatience, bitterness, or resentment towards the other person.  

If you have difficulty staying calm under conflict, I recommend this video, which has some tips for changing negative energy into positive energy - youtu.be/FbFy6R1JJ2U If you seem to have conflict with practically everyone around you and when you assess the conflict, it doesn't seem like a big deal, I recommend the following two videos:  1) Learning how to be an attached observer, so that you aren't so identified with ego responses - youtu.be/sswMI5ZRXLM2) Learning about your Overreactions - youtu.be/TIPJPUSF7u0

In this episode, I tell you about a painful childhood memory and exactly what happened much later in my life that helped me resolve it once and for all. I hope you can learn from my story and do the same.

The soul is the essence of who we are. It is selfless and without any attention and nourishment, it will leave you feeling unsettled no matter how many material things you acquire. Each one of us has a purpose that is beyond worldly pursuits. It is one that is unique to you and as selfless as your soul. I had a spiritual awakening many years ago and now I'm sharing everything that I've learned to help you live a freer, more fulfilled life.

Did you know that the decisions we make are subconsciously motivated? If you're not sure of yourself, how might this affect the situations you find yourself in? Here's your chance to do something about it. These self-confidence affirmations are positive statements written in a way that can be accepted by your linear mind. They use original background music written to sync with the rhythm of your heart. 

Use these positive affirmations to reprogram your mind for self-confidence and anxiety relief. I wrote these to help you loosen false beliefs, strengthen trust in yourself, overcome anxiety, and I also included what different personality types need to hear for love and acceptance of self.   

Listen to them when you first wake up, before, during, or after taking a nap, or as you fall asleep at night. You don't need to be awake for them to work. Use them any time you feel like you need them. Try to listen more often when you start and then on an as-needed basis for maintenance. You can also try holding your hands together in a unique position (For example, loosely hold your left pinky finger between your right thumb and right index finger) when you listen and if you need to recall confidence any time during the day, you can signal this to the body by placing your hands in the same position as when you usually listen to these affirmations.

A self-observation practice can show you how to heal yourself in your everyday life. This self-observation practice walks you through steps that you can take before, during, and after any routine activity or interaction with others. This contemplative practice increases awareness of the many different aims of the ego-self, allowing you to not be so attached to the self-image you've created, and over time it will allow you to integrate this ego-self to act more as a servant to your true self, resulting in a more purposeful and peaceful life.

I share why we all procrastinate, the role of the linear mind and emotional centers in procrastination, how to prepare yourself to make a start, and finally, a technique that will help you move past the habit of procrastination.
