Have you ever had a dream so real that it didn’t feel like a dream at all? Ever stranger still, did anything in that dream later come true? Or have you ever had a coincidence or multiple coincidences occur to you, maybe back to back, that left you with goosebumps, thinking to yourself how in the world is that possible?

If so, do we have a show for you!

Today we’ll be speaking with Robert Moss, a world-renowned expert in the field of Active Dreaming. He’s a former professor, a shaman, and an expert when it comes to signs and symbols, or the study of the “coincidences” we see in the world around us. And he’s the best-selling author of well over a dozen books including the recently released Sidewalk Oracles.

Today I want to dive into the “magic” and understand what dreams really have to offer, what active dreaming, and in a sense, how our awake world, is still a world of dreams. I think we’ve all experienced strange coincidences, and certainly deja-vu moments, I want to find out what they really mean, if they’re just coincidences, or if there’s a lot more here than meets the eye…and if so, how we can use these synchronicities to live a more magical and meaningful existence.

Topics Include:

  1. How to know you live in a magical world
    1. If you have magic inside of you then you live in a magical world

      2. Transition and movement is when it all multiplies
      3. What is the meaning of trickster energy and how does it work?
        1. Works at the luminal places – at the border places
        2. Be ready to change when things aren’t working out.
      4. Developing your personal definition of things

        1. What follows from a certain thing?

      8. Ask for guidance it will appear
      9. “Walk on the bridge don’t build on it”

      10. We live in a “mind field” where all of our energies are inter-twining

      17. Playing sidewalk tarot

        2. Look at them and make a story of them
        3. Develop a certain sense of poetic consciousness and poetic health.

Remember when you were kid how you wanted to be a explorer, or  an astronaut, or a pilot flying around the world? Then somewhere along the lines, you either forgot, or were told to stop dreaming and get serious, and you left the world of dreams and passions behind entering a pragrmatic life of compromise. If this sounds familiar, then do we have the show for you.

Today we’re interviewing Greg Levoy. Greg is the best-selling author of Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion  and Callings: Finding and Following An Authentic Life He is a former "behavioral specialist" writer for USA Today, and a regular blogger for Psychology Today. He’s written for the NY Times magazine, Washington post, and  Readers Digest among many others.  

Today we’re going to talk about rediscovering who you are, and who you were meant to be. We’ll look at where your energy’s draining out, how to take stock, and where to put your focus. Most importantly, we’ll help you change how you relate to the world so you can rekindle your inner flame.

  • We must reconnect with what is wild in us!
    • Our dreams
    • Nature and the natural world around us
  • Why we’re constantly negotiating between passion and security

    • There’s the part of us that wants to be safe, and secure, and in control
  • The Danger: In a tug-of-war security tends to win…passion tends to get back-burnered.
    • Chronically can have detrimental effects to choose security over passion
    • Observe how often make security choices over vitality choices
    • Reclaim ourselves from the task-master that says safety and security above all else
  • Why no running on the playground may be the most dangerous thing of all
  • Why society is so fear averse – i.e. Warning Labels
    • Do not iron clothes on body
    • This superman costume does not allow you to fly
  • Why we must give ourselves non-work modes of expression
    • Make art, make music, listen to music, spend time in men’s or women’s groups, athletics, sports, using the body, something that involves not sitting at a desk in front of a computer, or not being indoors
    • Remember our passions that have gone dormant
  • How to Find your passion
    • Ask yourself, what part of the book store do you go to first?
    • Do as Hannah Papp, author of the Mystical Backpacker suggests
    • Listen to Robert Greenway – father of Eco-pyschology.
      • “Civilization is thousands of years old, but only 4 days deep”
    • Why we can all benefit from a mortality meditation and learning about death in order to fully live
      • Concept that death could be a source of death
      • Death asks what matters to you, what’s really important to you?
      • Helps us make decision between passion and security
      • Thomas Murton – “to make an important decision consult your death”
      • Study: Almost everyone told less than 6 months to live were liberated in very profound ways!
        • “My concern diagnosis was the best thing that ever happened to me”
      • How learning about death can keep us from being trapped by life
        • Vital Signs helps illuminate compromises
          • Compromise and ignoring passions and nature may be the reason people have most heart-attacks at 9 AM on Monday mornings
          • Must do what makes your heart sing
          • Must reclaim your soul, spirit, energy, or mojo
        • Other goals of the book
          • Life is so rich and we settle for so little
          • Jean Houston – author and mythologist and psychologist
            • Says we need to live “larger than life”
          • Help people to be profoundly present to the stuff of your life
        • Most important question – Ask yourself what does my soul want today?
          • This is where the work happens
          • “Best way to make God laugh is to declare your plans”
          • Progress happens in the “to do” list of life
          • Deciding between the brake or accelerator, that’s where the work is in the world.
          • Everything in life becomes a mindfulness exercise
        • Takeaway pieces of advice
          • Begin to acknowledge where you lose energy and vitality
            • Take an inventory of where your energy dribbles out
            • Use the inventory so you can change your habits and your focus

If you’ve ever struggled to get out of your own way, or doubted the law of attraction thinking, this stuff doesn’t work, or doesn’t work FOR ME, then do we have the show for you!

Today we’ll be interviewing Michael Samuel’s the uber best-selling author of Just Ask the Universe, the Universeity, and Keep Calm and Ask On.

It’s actually his second time on the show. The first time was day one of the show, launch day, talking about Harnessing the law of attraction, and yes, it works! Our show has absolutely taken off and gone viral with thousands of listeners now in 101 countries and counting.

So now we wanted to have him back on and talk about Keeping Calm and Asking On.
So while they’re be the obligatory celebratory hi-fives for our progress and the show taking off, plus a woo hoo or too, I want to spend a bit of today talking about the tough stuff as well.

I want to talk about having faith in the Law of Attraction, about what to do when the chips are down, and most importantly, how to get out of our own way, stop blocking the flow and to allow the success, abundance, and happiness we deserve to come rushing on in.

In short, I want to talk about finding outrageous success, EVEN if we don’t believe it’s possible. Well, if that’s even possible.

But then I also want to talk about the fun stuff, or What Michael Calls the Law of Laughter, and why it’s perhaps the most important rule of them all!

Today we have a very short, yet powerful relaxing and rejuvenating inner flame or white light meditation.

This is a favorite of mine for healing, and pulling myself up, if I’m feeling a bit down. It’s hard not to finish with a quiet ear-to-ear grin.

This meditation goes well with today’s guest Gregg Levoy, who’s teaching us all how to rediscover our passion, so we can lead happier, more fulfilled lives. Okay, maybe it’s a bit of a stretch, but when you’re energy’s up from meditation, there’s more chi or juice to go after your passion. And when you’re going after your passion, you feel more enlightened to meditate as well.

If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show. Ratings and reviews are the #1 way you can help support us, and help people find the show. So we send you a HUGE thank you in advance!

To listen to Gregg’s interview, or find more meditations by me, or by our guests, check out our Inspire Nation Show, or InspireNationShow.com.

Okay, this is a very simple meditation.

For meditation I recommend you lay down, with your arms by your sides, palms up.

Now I want you to breathe in and out very gently through the nose.

As you breathe deep, I want you to imagine a glowing white light in your belly.

As you breathe in it begins to expand.

As you breathe out, it stays the same size.

This is a heavenly light, filled with love, capable of immense healing, and relaxation...

If you’ve ever wanted to shift your life, breathe new energy into things, feel better about the world, and gain a whole new perspective on life, even a 4 legged perspective then do we have the show for you.

Today I’m interviewing Laura Coffey, writer, editor and producer for Today.com, the website of NBC’s Today show, and author of one of my favorite books ever, My Old Dog.

Now I’m biased, I’ve had older dogs travel with us on book tour, and run with us, until they were seventeen, so I love older dogs.

I love younger puppies too, but there’s so much wisdom, patience, and love in an older dog.

And I’m not alone, celebrities such as George Clooney, and the humans being the upscale Nordstrom, love their old dogs too. As does Grammy nominated singer-song writer Neko Case.

So I can’t wait to talk with Laura about Einstein and George Clooney, about older dogs and what they have to offer and why tongues hanging out, just might be a good thing.

Topics Include:

  1. Why Adopt an Older Dog?
  2. George Clooney and Einstein
  3. Instagram's Marnie
  4. Bretagne – last surviving 911 Ground-Zero dog
  5. Movement for senior dogs
  6. Why “seniors” actually make the best pets
    1. Perfect Ready-To-Go Pets
  7. Resource guide with senior-specific rescue groups
  8. Gray muzzle organization
  9. Benefits of Senior Dogs
  10. Mady and Maddie
  11. Dogs for seniors
  12. Dogs at nursing homes
  13. Sunny – 16 year old dog
  14. 3 Nuns, Death Row, and Remy
  15. Such a meaningful, rewarding adoption
  16. Woofabago, 25 dogs and travelling x-country
  17. Stinky – AKA Marny – Internet Famous Dog (2 million Instagram followers)
  18. What about kids and senior dogs
    1. Doing something out of kindness and compassion, letting that love into your home, you can’t go wrong.
  19. Retired Service Dogs
  20. Inmate trained Dogs
  21. Words of Wisdom
    1. Don’t be afraid of it – don’t overthink anything about it!

Today we have a very special, relaxation, pet meditation. This meditation fits perfectly with Today’s show, by NBC Today.com Producer Laura Coffey on Rescued Pets, and How they Rescue Us.

This is a perfect meditation to do any time of the day. This meditation will put a smile on your face, and help drain your tension away.

If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show on iTunes. Ratings and reviews are the #1 way you can help us, and help people to find the show. Thanks so much in advance.

To find more meditations by me, or by our guests, and to check out Laura Coffey’s fantastic interview of Rescued Pets…which is perhaps my favorite interview so far, check out our inspire nation show, or visit inspirenationshow.com.

I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way.

Namaste.

To do this meditation, you can be either seated or laying down. You can do it eyes open or eyes closed as well.

There’s a healing power to petting an animal, and a soothing power as well. It’s been shown to lower blood pressure, lower our heart rate, our breathing rate, and take us from a fight or flight sympathetic nervous system response, and bring us into a rest, relax, and digest better, parasympathetic response.

So in essence, we’re going to breathe nice and slow and deep, as we visualize petting our favorite pet, real or imaginary, present or gone.

Today we have a very short, relaxing, body-image meditation. This meditation goes perfectly with today’s interview with Mali and Joe on the Soulmate Experience.

You can do this meditation anytime of the day, but I like this one best first thing in the morning, or after coming back from a workout or the gym.

If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show. Ratings and reviews on iTunes tremendously help people find the show, so I can’t thank you enough.

To find Joe and Mali’s fun, sexy, and enlightening interview, or to find more meditations by me, or our guests, check out our Inspire Nation Show or InspireNationShow.com.

I send love. I send light. And many, many blessings your way.
Namaste.

For this meditation, we’re going to do the exact opposite of what we typically do. I’m sure you’ve heard the expression we have 60,000 thoughts a day, and that 90-95% of those thoughts are exactly the same, time after time.

Well when it comes to our bodies, or body-image, it’s more like 99% of the time. For instance, if you’re concerned about your stomach, then when you hop out of the shower, that’s all you see, your belly. Or if it’s wrinkles around your eyes, then you might not see your toned thighs, but only those pesky wrinkles. No matter what the imperfection, or area for improvement, we give it a disproportionate amount of our attention.

And based on the law of attraction, what we think about, is what we bring about. So focusing on what we don’t like, or what’s bothering us, only makes more of it.

Instead, if we focus on what we do like, we bring more of that about as well.

On top of that, we get more comfortable in our skin, or more comfortable with our bodies. This means greater self-confidence, healthier relationships, we become attractor magnets for more positive experiences in our lives, and yes, better body image, can also mean, better sex. Why? Because we’re more comfortable and confident, and that comes across to our partner as well!

This meditation is really simple. We’re going to do a full body scan…looking only, and always for the positives. Remember what you resist, persists, so no looking for “negatives” or imperfections. Save that for another day, and may the nother day never come.

Instead, let’s look for those amazing positives you have. And you do have them. We all do!

For this meditation, I highly recommend laying down if at all possible. And getting good and comfortable, yes, this means a blanket or pillow too if that helps.

In 2004, Michael Sandler undertook a 5000 mile, 40 day, solo, unsupported bike ride to raise awareness around learning disabilities. In this candid, heart-warming interview, find out how to find the strength to continue when the going gets tough in life.


Jessica Lee here your mysteriously absent co-host, who’s actually here today and Michael’s typically loving wife. Don’t worry, Michael’s not on holiday, he’s right here on the line with me, but today we’ve planned a special treat for you. And today I’ll be turning the tables on Michael and interviewing him as a guest on Inspire Nation.


You might know Michael sandler as the uber positive host of inspire nation. You might think that he was born this way, but truthfully speaking, though he did came into this world with some admirable traits, he had to work pretty hard at becoming the man I so admire today.

Now as Michael’s wife, you might think that I’ve heard his stories a million times by now – it’s true I have, but amazingly I’ve never tired of hearing them. There’s always something new & fascinating to learn. So I decided I wanted to give you, the listener, the opportunity to be truly inspired by Michael himself.


Today we’re going to zero in on one oh-so incredible epic journey that Michael took. Back in 2006, he rode his bicycle across the country to raise awareness for children and adults with learning disabilities, 5,000 miles in 40 days, solo and unsupported. Yes, that means it was him, his bicycle, a few pieces of precious gear, and Mexican radio – though that didn’t last very long. We’ll talk more about that later.


Today we’re going to talk about divine inspiration – how to know when it’s not coming from you, perseverance vs. being plain stubborn; how to keep going when the going gets tough, what to do when people start doubting you, how to summon in the miracles when things start looking bleak & keeping the faith no matter what.


KEY TOPICS:

What possessed Michael to undertake such a grueling physical endeavor

Why he only allowed himself 6 weeks to prepare

Why Michael brought 1/2 of a Wayne Dyer book with him, and mailed the rest of the Wayne Dyer book back to himself!

Finding out how little you need to survive and the beauty of simplifying

How Michael went from calling events “nightmares” to “opportunities”

How people doubted Michael’s ability to finish, and why Michael never wavered in his conviction

How the universe sometimes tests you

Michael’s metaphor of standing on a diving board and sinking down before you can launch

What Michael discovered when he finally turned off the music and what you can discover in the silence

How to get over the fear of being alone

What happened when Michael ran out of money on 3 separate occasions

How to call in more miracles into your life

How doing good in the world, brings more
goodness back to you

What transpired when Michael got pulled over by police (twice!)

Why it’s ok if you’re path in life isn’t a straight line

Why sometimes it’s necessary to go backwards, before you can move forwards

How to cultivate your intuition and be certain it’s not coming from you

How Michael got through some of the toughest parts of America, including the murder capital of the country, on his bicycle

What was waiting for him at the end of his bike ride

Oct 25, 2015

Today we have a very authentic and heart-felt guest, I’d call him a bridge, between languages, cultures and ancient wisdom and the modern world. He’s a master, a student of the Toltec tradition, perhaps you could even call him a warrior, though not in the traditional terms. And he’s a Nagwal, but I’ll him share about that. His name is don Miguel Ruiz Jr.

Don Miguel Ruiz JR, is the author of two very special books, The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World, and Living a Life of Awareness, Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World.

You may be familiar with his father, who’s written some of the most beautiful spiritual books such as The Four agreements: A guide to Personal Freedom.

 

At the age of 14, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. apprenticed to his father don Miguel Sr. and his grandmother, a faith healer, Madre Sarita. From that early age, he was called upon to translate Madre Sarita's prayers, lectures and workshops from Spanish into English. In this way, through constant repetition and review, he learned the content of her teachings in both languages.

Don Miguel Jr.'s apprenticeship lasted 10 years. When he reached his mid-20's, his father intensified his training. At the apex of this power journey don Miguel said to his eldest son, "Find your way out. Go home and master Death by becoming alive."       

For the past eight years, don Miguel Jr. has applied the lessons learned from his father and grandmother to define and enjoy his own personal freedom while achieving peace with all of creation.  

Today, don Miguel Jr. is married and has two young children. And so, as a Nagual he begins once again to pass along the wisdom and the tools of his family's traditions in helping others to achieve their own personal freedom and optimal physical and spiritual health. 

I am so excited to have don Miguel Ruiz Junior on the show, I think there’s so much we can learn from him, from Toltec wisdom, and from his experience as a bridge between the wisdom of the past, and the wackiness of today.

Thank you so much for being on the show Miguel, are you ready to shine???

Questions Include:

  1. Who are the Toltec People?
  2. What does Toltec Mean?
  3. What was it like growing up in both cultures and ways?
  4. What is a Nagual?
  5. Grandmother – faith healer, and translating it, but letting knowledge get in the way
  6. Domestication and attachment
  7. Let go of the attachment that you must obtain some image of perfection for you to be happy.
  8. Facing our own reflection
  9. When you no longer believe in a self-judgment, it will no longer have any power over you. You can choose to view yourself from a place of acceptance based on the undeniable truth that you are already perfect and complete exactly the way you are right now.
  10. Why did you think you were imperfect when your father would tell you you were perfect just as you were? Where did the differing belief come from? (childhood? Parenting? Experiences?)
  11. 47: min - For me, I have crossed that threshold from concept to experience while jogging – usually around the one-mile marker. This is when I am no longer thinking about my route, pace, or even the pain in my legs. This is a moment when everything goes calm, and all I can feel is my breath, the stride, and the environment. My mind suddenly shuts off and I am completely in the moment, and I know exactly what I am doing without the need for thought. From this place even the term Authethic Self disappeares, along with the rest of my thoughts. I am simply alive with the complete freedom to love myself and everbody as I chose. I have no need to distort the information I perceive because my perception of life is unencumbered by any attachments. The authentic self is the harmony of mind, body and soul as the expression of life.
  12. Level 2 – the controlled folly
  13. The clean mirror
  14. What does Toltec mean?
  15. What was your upbringing like?
  16. What is Domestication
  17. WHAT ARE THE 5 levels of attachment
  18. How can we use the five levels to transform our lives…or to liberate us???
  19. How are we subjugated, or tied to…at present
  20. What is the biggest demon in the world? (or why is love the biggest demon in the world?)
  21. Mitote and narrators in our head
  22. Being motivated by self-love :o)
  23. How do we move from level 5 to 4 or 4 to 3 or so-on?
  24. Are we supposed to strive toward level 1 (or judge people based on the level they’re at?)
  25. Quest for truth vs. quest for being right
  26. Toltec 5 –
  27. Believing without being skeptical
  28. The Gift of Listening
Oct 25, 2015

Today we have two very harmonic guests Dr. Eben Alexander and Karen Knewell, who will be talking with us about frequency, healing, and acoustic meditation.

---Dr. Eben Alexander, Best-Selling Author of Proof of Heaven and as seen on Oprah!---

I’ve been extremely intrigued by the power of sound and meditation to help us train the mind and to heal. Not to geek out too much, but I’ve been fascinated by how different sounds make us feel better, relax, or increase our focus, whether that’s Tibetan singing bowls, chants, particularly Om, or binaural or warbling sounds.

Today we’ll talk about all of these and how sound can be a gateway for greater health, for empowerment, focus (and attention) and in a sense, for transcendence, or at least to quiet our minds.

We’ll also be talking about a bonus meditation you can find on our Inspire Nation show, a sacred acoustics sample, offered by Karen Newell and Dr. Eben Alexander.

As for our guests, Dr. Eben Alexander (seen on Oprah) has been on our show before, he’s the run-away best-selling author of Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife and The Map of Heaven: How Science, Religion and Ordinary People are Proving the Afterlife.


And Karen Newell, an innovator in the emerging field of brainwave entrainment audio meditation.

Using Sacred Acoustics music, sound & harmonic resonance recordings, she teaches you how to enter and engage your own consciousness in order to connect to inner guidance, achieve inspiration, improve wellness and develop intuition.

---Also how sacred sound and music greatly increases focus, mood & concentration for those with ADHD---

Today we’ll be talking about sacred acoustics, about using sound to quiet the mind, take an inner journey, to heal, and to connect with a deeper part of ourselves. It should be a fascinating journey into the power of sound.


And again, you’ll want to check out the bonus sacred acoustics meditation afterwards and try it out for yourself!

Do you ever feel like you’re not in control of your food, but your food is control of you? You know, when you have that one chip, or one bite of ice cream, or a simple little chicken wing, and suddenly, you’ve plowed through an entire bag, box or pint? And perhaps without even knowing it!

If so, then you’re not alone, and do we have the show for you!

Do you know what do Bill Gates, Charles Schwab, Warren Buffet, Steven Spielberg, Michael Jordan, Julia Roberts, Facebooks Mark Zuckenberg (facebook) Twitter’s Jack Dorsey (twitter), Google’s Larry Page (and maybe even Obama) have in common? They’re all introverts.

And believe it or not, so am I, but I’m getting ahead of myself.

Today we’re going to do a very short guided relaxation meditation to help you connect with nature, both inside and outside of yourself.

I’ve used many of these meditations to help quiet and center me, and I’ve even used them in doctor’s office’s to help me stay calm and relaxed, or so they can use less medication. Yes, this works in a dentist’s office too.

You can do this meditation any time of the day, it’s fantastic if you have the time during a mid-day break.

If you’ve ever wanted to travel the world, but thought to yourself, if only I had the money, the time or I’d love to do that someday when I retire, then do we have the show for you!

Today we’ll be talking with Rolf Potts, veteran travel writer, for the likes of Salon.com and world hum, and best-selling author of Vagabonding: and Marco Polo Didn’t Go There.

His adventures have taken him across six continents, and include piloting a fishing boat 900 miles down the Laotian Mekong, hitchhiking across Eastern Europe, traversing Israel on foot, bicycling across Burma, driving a Land Rover across South America, and traveling around the world for six weeks with no luggage or bags of any kind.

Today we’re going to talk about working to live, instead of living to work, and about taking our own life adventure, or what I call Vagabonding 101. I want to know how we can all get into it, what’s the simplest way to start, and if we really need to wait till we have that nest egg, or are retired to be able to afford to travel around the world!

That, and perhaps find out about Tantric Sex and taking or not taking donkey’s through the desert.
