Today we have a very gentle, healing, soothing, and recharging meditation.

It’s one I like to use if I’m not feeling well, sore, anxious when I wake up, or a bit exhausted. In fact, I used it this morning after a late night’s recording session. It helps recharge my body, makes me feel better all over, and I believe even helps boost my immune system.

That, and it’s super simple to do.

You can of course, do this meditation any time of the day, and I love it just after waking, or immediately before bed.

If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor and rate and review our show on iTunes. It’s the #1 way you spread the love, and help others to find the show! That, plus of course, it’s instant great karma points. And who couldn’t use that?

To hear more meditations from me, or our guests, please visit our Inspire Nation Show or InspireNationShow.com.

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

Namaste. Woo Hoo!

Okay, you can do this meditation sitting upright, but I recommend laying down for it if at all possible.

As always, I’ll have you begin with some gentle deep breaths, in and out through the nose.

Then, as you continue to breathe deep, I want you to imagine being enveloped, or covered, in a blanket of golden heavenly light...

This meditation goes well with today’s guest, Tal Ben Shahar, a former Harvard Positivity Professor and author of Choose the Life You Want: The mindful Way to Happiness.

You can of course do this meditation anytime you want, and use it as a mantra or reminder to bring you back to a state of happiness in any moment.

To listen to Tal’s interview or hear more meditations by me or our guests visit our Inspire Nation Show or InspireNationShow.com.

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

Okay, this is a very simple meditation.

To begin, I’d like you either sitting up good and tall, which is a position of confidence, or laying on your back on the floor.

First I’ll have you begin with a few nice, deep slow breaths. In and out gently through the nose.

Next I’d like you to imagine one of the most positive experiences of your life. It could be something recent. It could be from your childhood. It could the birth of a child. Your wedding day, or anything else that made you feel on top of the world.

As you continue to breathe in and out, take a minute and put yourself back there…

Today we have a very special meditation to help us release burdens and fears and vibrate at a higher level. This meditation is from our recent guest, career and life intuitive Sue Frederick. It’s called the Break Your Heart Wide Open Meditation, and it’s perfect if you’re having a rough day, tough time, grieving or need to let go of pain to help you raise your energy and move forward. I think it’s something we could all benefit from!

A brief note on this meditation, she’ll ask at one point you put your hand in front of your heart, with your thumb and forefinger together. I want to describe this too you. Please take your right hand and flip it palm up. Now place it palm up, right in front of your heart, up against your chest.

Keep it palm up, touching your chest, but touch your thumb and forefinger (first finger together so they make a circle). This in essence will be your scooper or shovel you’ll use in the meditation to help you remove and release pain, worries, and concerns. She’ll coach you through it, I just wanted to make sure you can visualize what you’ll do with your hand.

If you like this meditation, please do us a HUGE favor, and rate and review our show on iTunes, it’s by far the #1 way you can help cheer us on, and HELP others find the show. And yes, you get boatloads of karma points for doing so. Thank you so much!!!

Nov 10, 2015

We’re always talking about how YOU can improve yourself and YOU can change your life, but it’s often exhausting and filled with worry, and how do we know what’s best for us anyway?

Well if you’ve ever wondered if you’re trying too hard, striving in the wrong direction, or have no idea where to go-or how to right the ship, then do we have the show for you!

Today we’ll be talking with Toesha Silver, and she’s here not a minute too soon! She’s the best-selling author of Outrageous Openness and the recently released Change Me Prayers: The Hidden Power of Surrender.

Today we’re going to talk about a very powerful way to live. It’s called Outrageous Openness, or how to be open to the world around us and the divine within or how to seek a divine plan so life happens through us, and for us, rather than by us. That plus why giving away your Seinfeld collection, may just set you free.

Topics Include:

  1. Life happening through you and for you, rather than by you
  2. Scammed by scammer, but the money returned
  3. It’s about creating space to allow
  4. Not about chasing, pushing, grasping
  5. Tosha’s Story
    1. Was very sick for 3 years
    2. Idea of offering to a force of love
    3. Not about asking for help with “my” problem
    4. What would happen if it stopped being my problem, my life, the “small self” ownership
    5. If I get out this life is now owned by you, show me the actions you want me to take
    6. Felt hopeless because illness had gone on so long
  6. How do you stay out of the trap of striving, wanting, and worrying
  7. Right action begins to happen through you
  8. So important to create space rather than pushing to make it happen
  9. Offer it to the divine and say “show me the first step”
  10. What’s the Trouble with the Law of Attraction
    1. The energetic part is great, we attract according to our vibration
      1. Keep vibration high will attract to that
      2. If it’s low (anger, darkness, etc.) will attract to that
    2. Trouble is, it’s often used to give a shopping list…like shopping list to Costco
    3. Problem is, there’s often a divine plan that’s far greater for us
  11. How do we let go without losing our grandest vision
  12. Think of what you’re doing on behalf of love, and love knows all the steps that need to happen
  13. Instead of saying I need say I offer
    1. Need hands open to receive.
    2. Become able to bless the obstacles
  14. Vision boards are beautiful, but very limiting, very small
  15. I am here to serve love,
  16. Think of inviting Love in as an ally
    1. Use very simple prayers (and meditation) of invitation
      1. Help me to center, help me to trust love
    2. Having a God Box – putting all of your worries in your God Box
    3. How to let go (of Seinfeld) and de-clutter
    4. Having a sacred fire with our vision boards
    5. The breadcrumb trail – when what you desire is offered to the divine you start to get shown a trail
    6. Offering does not mean passivity
    7. How to listen and hear – an inner knowing
    8. How do we cultivate the inner knowing
      1. Part is through the prayers – offering it over
    9. It’s not do more, strive more, give more, but instead get centered and OFFER back
      1. Completely different recalibration of your energy
    10. What Surrendering Really Means

Do you ever feel there’s greatness inside of you, a higher purpose or calling, something grander more meant for your life, if you could only figure out what it is or how in the world to tap into it. If so then do we have the show for you!

Today we’ll be talking with Derek Rydell prominent life, business, & career coach to Emmy and Academy Award Winner,s Fortune 500 execs, and evolutionary leaders in business, spirituality nad the healing arts. And he’s the best-selling author of several books, including Emergence: Seven Steps for Radical Life Change.

I must say, Emergence it one of the most radical books on life change I’ve read, but I mean that in a GREAT way.

For Derek Rydall empowers you to be your most amazing self, one much grander than you ever could have imagined!

So today we’ll talk about Emergence 101, about understanding who we truly are, how to discover our gifts, and to grow from the tiny humble acorn, to the magnificent oak, we were each meant to be!

Topics Include:

  1. Why “Self-Improvement” is an oxymoron
  2. What “the end of self improvement” really means
  3. Derek’s story for self improvement, which didn’t work.
    1. Why he was:
      1. Suicidal
      2. Addicted to Drugs and Alcohol
  • Struggled to drive across bridge without pulling it off the edge
  1. Coral Reef Near-death experience – Had to surrender
  2. Discovered the “self” trying to improve was a fiction
  1. Went to monastery to become a monk
  2. Learned we’re not broken –
  3. Instead we must learn how to dust off the perfection which is already there
  4. We are already perfect, whole and complete!
    1. The challenge with the Law of Attraction is that it’s trying to attract, improve or achieve from a limited perspective
    2. Attracting from a limited perspective creates a barrier or resistance to what is already trying to emerge.
    3. It’s like trying to serve two masters or ride two horses at the same time
  5. Law of attraction – manifestation cycle – why it often doesn’t work
    1. The true meaning of whole-work, not homework.
    2. How to tune in to our true self
  6. How to know “you are already whole and complete”
  7. Are you congruent with this truth?
  8. Why Ego and The Tribe get in our way
    1. Ego is designed to keep us the same – is an artifact of our evolutionary growth
      1. So tribe tries to keep us down, and ego tries and prevents change – isn’t letting us evolve
        1. Happens in our “tribe” called our family as well, is a vestigial protective device
        2. Need to separate yourself from that until you can hold your space in that expanded place.
      2. THE EMERGENCE MODEL – Whatever’s “missing” is what you’re not giving
        1. Because the truth is, everything really truly is within you.
      3. How to be the light
      4. Emergence is the “ultimate weight loss program”
      5. How to turn on the divine power within.

      • What’s most important is the imagination of the soul, not of the mind
      • How to go from Station B-Lack to K-RICH

Perhaps you've seen Dr. Terry Wahl's viral Ted Talk with over 2 million views!

If you’ve ever had inflammation, an auto-immune disease, sore joints, heart-disease, asthma, high blood pressure, or if you’re just plain human, then do we have the show for you!

Today we’re interview Dr. Terry Wahls, one of the most extraordinary doctors out there. She’s come back from MS, and from a life in traditional medicine, to develop a functional medicine protocol to help us all live healthier, more energetic lives TODAY, and to come back from autoimmune disorders from MS, to Luppus, Lyme Disease, Diabetes, Chronic Fatigue, and the list goes on and on and on.

Today we’ll talk about the heart of disease, why at it’s source, it’s all cellular dysfunction, where it comes from, and most importantly, what in the world we can do about it, beginning TODAY.

That’s most important to me, that and kicking butt energetically. Jessica and I don’t have a show to run, but we want a family too, and we’re both coming back from long-term illness, her more than me. But if we admit it to ourselves, aren’t we all struggling in some way health-wise? We were never meant to be tired, achy, and old before our time, or brain-fogged at any age. And we were never meant to live on pharmaceuticals and a lifetime suppy of supplements.

Today you’re in for a special treat! I just finished an interview I’ll have up in two weeks, but I was so excited by what our guest shared, that like a kid in a candy store I wanted to get you this exercise right away!. So today we have a very relaxing, and powerful breathing exercise and meditation brought to you by our upcoming guest Patrick McKeown, a world expert on the Buteyko breathing method and author of seven books on the breath including the brand new Oxygen Advantage.

You often hear me talking about breathing in and out through the nose. There are many powerful reasons for that, one in particular is to help the mind go quiet, and rewire.

This exercise in particular will help you do just that. By practicing this exercise, you’ll literally making changes to your brain that will help you throughout the day, and any time you experience stress. This exercise will help you cultivate greater concentration, focus, patience, and relaxation, even under heavy stress. With practice it can even help you sleep better.

---Perfect Too for ADHD or a Hyper-Active Mind!!!--- 

It’s very powerful, which is why I practice it quite often, and I always stress breathing in and out through the nose.

Patrick will first discuss some of the benefits of this breathing method, then lead you in a very informal breathing meditation.

My recommendation is to listen through fully the first time, then go back to where the music begins and dive straight into the meditation, tuning out his words as you go along.

This is an exercise you can do any time of the day to immediately reduce your stress and quiet the mind. You can do this at work, at your computer, on break, at the dinner table, in bed, on a train, or almost anywhere you can think of. However, as a powerful breathing exercise that can dramatically quiet the mind, I do not recommend it while driving a car or operating heavy machinery.

If you like this meditation, please do us a huge favor and rate and review our show. It’s the #1 way you can show your support, and help others find the show. And of course, there’s lots of great karma points involved. Now we’ve been told, it’s much easier to rate and review on a computer than you’re phone. But if you’re on your phone, you have to back out of inspire nation, type inspire nation in the search, then look for the ratings and review tab. Thank you so much.

We’ll have Patrick McKeown’s full interview up in about two weeks. To check our more interviews or meditations, visit our Inspire Nation Show, or inspirenationshow.com.

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

Namaste.

Today we’re talking with Dr. Bernie Siegel, the best-selling author of Love, Medicine, and Miracles.

Of course, he’s also the author of the newly release Love, Animals and Miracles a book that speaks to my soul.
