The Covert Shift in Human Perception—A Silent Revolution | Gregg Braden

Schimbarea ascunsă în percepția umană - o revoluție tăcută | Gregg Braden


Lumea s-a schimbat - și nimeni nu ți-a spus. În această conversație zguduitoare, Gregg Braden dezvăluie războiul ascuns pentru conștiința noastră, știința uitată codificată în ADN-ul nostru și adevărurile străvechi suprimate de generații.

Societatea modernă este construită pe o minciună - aceea că suntem separați, neputincioși și distruși. Dar înțelepciunea indigenă și știința de ultimă oră confirmă acum ceea ce știau anticii: ne naștem cu capacități extraordinare, iar planul de trezire se află în noi.

The Hidden Battle for Humanity

there is a battle playing out multiple battles there's a battle for our thoughts there's a battle for our story

there's a battle for our very humanness and most people don't even know about it there is a thinking and an agenda that's

being perpetrated that says that humans are frail weak powerless temporary and

that we need something outside of our bodies computer chips to replace our

neurons chemicals in our blood wires under our skin to perpetuate our species

but what they failed to say is that all of that external technology mimics what

we already do in the cells of our body except our bodies do it

better i have people say something similar to me all the time you know I don't have time to understand myself

because uh I'm trying to put food in my table and feed my family or I'm I'm trying to do my best in school i

understand all of that here's the thing we have been conditioned to live in a world through a way of thinking that has

served us in the past and we have to say it served us because you and I are here now so it worked well enough to get us here that way of thinking worked in the

world that the way it used to be the world just changed and nobody told us that there was no special on CNN or the

Discovery Channel hey you know the world changed i wish there was so we've never been given the opportunity to even mourn

the passing of the world that no longer exists so we're trying to solve our problems and think about ourselves the

way we always have in the world that changed and it doesn't fit it no longer fits what I found in my own life

personally if I can back up and shift the paradigm and I'll tell you what I

mean by that but if I can shift the paradigm within which I'm seeing everything all of a sudden all those

little things take on a whole new meaning and they become a lot less a lot less of a problem they come become much

easier the paradigm is this we have been conditioned

uh steeped in a story of who we are that is based in separation competition and

conflict it began in 1859 people say to me Greg 1859 you know it was over 100

years ago 150 years ago so what you know it's a good question what difference does that make it's a good question

here's the answer the world we live in the society the economic system the

corporations the medical model the way that we're taught to provide for our families the way that we are taught to

have the most intimate relationships under the roof with the people that we share our homes and even our bed with i

mean let's just get real we are taught to interact with humans based upon these ideas of

competition conflict and separation and even the most spiritually minded people that say "I've transcended that." When

they are in a heated discussion and somebody pushes their buttons they go to that lowest common denominator often of

competition comp they will lash out with something really hurtful to defend themselves it's not their fault it's

deeply ingrained in our subconscious so as not if because it's already happening as we back off and embrace the new

paradigm of cooperation and mutual aid that is huge it is a hugely different

way of thinking it means we live in a world that likes us where nature is not out to snuff out every good thing that

happens to us it means we don't have to be constantly vigilant and defending ourselves from the world around us that

is a hugely vastly different way of thinking and we have an opportunity now to begin with an entire generation of

young people who now are steeped in the glamour of war conflict and competition

to make that shift what would it look like to have a world where we have an entire generation of young people that

know that nature likes them and that we live in a world of cooperation and mutual aid and connection we're about to

find out we don't have to wait long to find out so for me simply backing up out

of the minutia momentarily to look at the big picture

The Paradigm Shift No One Told You About

and to make that shift and once we make that shift when you go back into the minutia uh everything looks different to

me so I was asked recently uh about my failures in life greg what are your

greatest failures in life and my answer was not what the interviewer was

expecting because from my perspective I honestly believe I have no failures in

my life there are many times when the outcome has not been what I thought the outcome was going to be but what I have

chosen to do is when I go forward with anything in life if I say yes to an invitation if I say yes to a commitment

and I'm in 100% and I do all that I could possibly do given those

circumstances in that moment and I could do nothing else that's all I could do and it's impossible for me to fail now

the outcome I may have expectations of an outcome that change but I've never

thought of that as a failure and I know it's subtle and it's a very different way of thinking but it also has freed me

from the polarity of the success failure paradigm uh and allowed me to move

forward with new choices in in my life and I continue I'm a student I am a student of understanding myself

relationship to the world and I continue to do these things so for example I I know many speakers or musicians I'm a

musician when I'm not writing books who walk off the stage at night and

immediately begin to criticize what they've done they say "I should have done this," or you know "This didn't

sound the way I wanted to," or and they will beat themselves up for hours or

days after that performance and when I'm with those people I will ask them given

the circumstances giving the sound system you had given the lighting you had giving the the climate control you

had the environment that you were performing in is there any way you could have done better and they said well no

you know I did the best I could with that and I said then how could you possibly fail and it's a very very

different way of thinking but for me it has freed me from the shackles of the

success failure paradigm and allowed me to look honestly at what I do in a

healthy way and make healthy choices when the student asks the master Jesus

what is it that we can do when life is difficult you know when when we are

persecuted for our beliefs or when our loved ones are taken from us and we feel

powerless to do anything about that what can we do and and the words of the master were so powerful then and I

cannot help but believe that they will empower us today so let me just share these words from memory what Jesus said

was that which is within you if you bring forth that which is within you it

will save you if you do not bring forth that which is within you it will destroy

you and I think there's a lot of truth to what he said because within each of us is the the power of love the love

that can transcend any darkness any loss any hurt that comes into our lives we

have that power we have to allow that power to come forward we have the power to forgive we have the power that allows

us to forgive the things that have hurt us the most and and this love what the master tells us is that the deeper that

we are hurt the depth of our hurt illustrates our capacity for love and

think about that just for a moment because we've all been hurt deeply have you ever considered that the

depth of your hurt is teaching you about how deeply you can reach into your capacity for love not just to survive

but to transcend that hurt this is another example of one of the wisdom codes uh I have used this many many

times in my life to remind me that whatever it is that I'm facing in life

if I bring forth my love and my forgiveness it will save me and you all know that if you do not if you harbor

the hurt the unresolved hurt the unresolved fear

uh within you that it creates the chemistry and the biology that will

Unlearning Separation, Embracing Unity

destroy you your cells that give you the very thing you cherish the most and that's life itself every one of us in

our own lives we have to develop what I call the the the spiritual anchor the

rock the sole compass and it has nothing to do with religion when I say the spiritual anchor it's the spiritual

anchor is when we know who we are in relationship to ourselves we know who we are in relationship to the earth to one

another to our past to our future we know how we are empowered and what our potential is and once you know that we

then can live our truth in a world whether other people

support it or not when we depend on other people for that support that's where we give our power away and that's

where many of us come from uh I'll just say to the young people listening um I

come from a very difficult family background dysfunctional alcoholic family full of criticism uh instilling

self-doubt uh in in the young people uh I have a younger brother uh we came from

the same family and we had the same criticisms um I didn't believe what my

father told me about my inability uh in life and my younger brother he did

believe it he embraced much of it and it's so interesting uh two different people the same family same background

interpreting the information differently and and I attribute my ability to uh to

to let that criticism roll off of me in my the blessing I had very early on i

knew who I was and I understood uh my place in this world at an early

age not everyone has that but I began looking at an early age you know it

takes a lot of work to explore the potential within every

one of us in my lifetime really my lifetime as men we were taught that the

trauma was all in our mind is what we taught it's just the way that you think about things and to discount the hurt

and the emotions my father left my family when when I was 10 and it threw our family into a traumatic

uh experience of of sheer survival of low-income housing government subsidized

housing and me leaving school early to to work factory jobs in the afternoons

because we we needed the money and it was good i I learned a lot from that but in all of those experiences I was always

taught and people would just say to me "Suck it up." That was the term suck it up you are you're a man and deal with it

and I did to the best of my ability but now what I realize as an adult is that

it is the very emotion that results from our betrayals from our hurts from our

fears that can either be the source of our greatest strength or the the source

of what destroys us and Jesus said this in the Nagamadi library he says "If you

bring forth that which is within you it will save you if you deny that which that which is within you it will destroy

you." Humans are funny in that we tend to learn by experiencing first what we

don't want before we don't want it rather than saying this is what I choose and putting our energy in that direction

doesn't have to be that way but we had to have two global wars before we said no more war we've had to have holocaust

before we say no more holocausts now we've had to have these atrocities before we we say no more rather than

choosing to live in honoring uh all life and all beliefs uh in a universal sense

there is an awakening of human consciousness that we've never seen before and uh and where that leads I

think as we embrace the fact that we are a global family and we may not always

like one another but I believe we truly love one another and I've seen evidence of that we may not like the habits of

one another every day but when it comes down to life or death we will lay our lives on the line for for one another

and that's very unique in in a species so I think consciousness uh definitely

there is an evolution in consciousness and that evolution is unfolding it's not being shared in the mainstream media

you're probably not going to see it on CNN or BBC but we all know it's there if you try to solve your problems with your

brain some problems are good to be solved with if you're an engineer building a space shuttle the brain is

Failures vs. Feedback: Redefining Success

good you you want to use that but the brain we have a left and a right brain

the function very differently the right brain more intuitive colors emotions sensations left brain logic shapes um

you know angles mathematics things like that the point is it's polarity if you try to solve a problem

in a relationship should I stay or should I go there's a song in there uh

or a job you know should I stay or should I go or a health problem if you

try to solve that through the polarity of the brain the brain will do what it does best it will answer you in polarity

and polarity you're always going to have a right and a wrong and a good and a bad and a healed and a sick and a success

and a failure and a worthy and a notworthy and the beauty of the heart is

that there is no left and right heart when it comes to to the energetics part of my heritage is

Cherokee southeastern Cherokee and there's a a word in Cherokee that

doesn't exist in the English language it's two words a shante ishta and Shantae isha means the single eye of the

heart the eye that sees what is so if you want to know the the truth don't ask

your heart unless you can can handle the truth as the saying goes can you handle

the truth when you're in coherence go through those three steps and you begin

to ask your heart my heart you say the words "My heart." So there's no ambiguity about what you're asking

you're asking this this network right here my heart what is the meaning of the

dream that I was shown last night or what is the meaning uh what am I learning in this relationship that I'm

in right now why is my body showing me this illness right now any anything and

your heart will answer uh objectively and this is a really

powerful tool i was the youngest I I I was the youngest in the boardroom when I worked in the defense industry during

the Cold War years in the in the 80s and I would off often come in with

ideas that were a little out of the box and I' I'd take a hit i'd get a lot of

criticism and I was just learning about coherence and if I didn't go into that

coherent space I would tend to hear it as criticism uh and react in ways that I

was sorry for after but if you can be in your heart in co in a coherent space you

still get the criticism but you hear it more objectively and it doesn't have the

same negative impact and it empowers you or me as an individual to be in our own power to listen to the criticism of

others without a knee-jerk reaction and then maybe responding in a healthy

constructive way there was a very famous author and prophet in the early in the 20th century whose name is Khalil

Gabbron uh and I began reading Khalil Gabbron when I was 8 years old and Khalil Gabbron there is one sentence

that has been my sole compass it has been with me i think of it every day i

apply it in every situation every relationship every job every commitment what he said is work is love made

visible it takes a lot of work to know who we are in this world and to

demonstrate for ourselves our potential that is our love made visible that is us

loving ourselves in a way that empowers us to be in this world in a healthy a

healthy way where we thrive in the presence of all of the changes so my

invitation for any young people is uh love yourself and your love made visible

is you taking the time to understand your potential and who you really are the good news is we have that

information now new discoveries new science indigenous wisdom married together i think we owe it to ourselves

to bring it all to bear in our lives today every time one of us chooses has

the wisdom to recognize we have a choice we're not stuck number two we're only defined by our past if we choose to be

and I think that's the powerful lesson my father left for me i have a younger brother four years younger same parents

we're like night and day if he were here we look different we think different his life has been very difficult

The Power Within: Jesus' Wisdom Revisited

uh because he he believed so many of the things that he heard about himself in

the abusive relationship that weren't true his soul compass led him in a

different different path but I think that when we have those

experiences we have to have the wisdom to recognize we have a choice the strength to make the choice but we can't

stop there that we've got to to be able to follow it through and every time one

of us does that in our lives we're creating a bridge in the field for

another person somewhere on the planet you may never know who they are but energetically we make it a little easier

for them to have that wisdom and the courage to choose and the strength to

see it through and in that way I think we uplift one another in ways that we'll never know so if we're looking for

external validation you probably aren't going to find it but if we are striving

to become the best version of ourselves and hold ourselves accountable in a way

that's kind and forgiving but honest and true that's I think how we as a global

family it's how we love one another through our actions and how we help one

another become the best versions of ourselves and when we do that that's how we create the best world possible and in

my lifetime really my lifetime as men we were taught that the trauma was all in

our mind is what we taught it's just the way that you think about things and to discount the hurt and the emotions my

father left my family when when I was 10 and it threw our family into a traumatic

uh experience of of sheer survival of low-income housing government subsidized

housing and me leaving school early to to work factory jobs in the afternoons

because we we needed the money and it was good i I learned a lot from that but in all of those experiences I was always

taught and people would just say to me "Suck it up." That was the term suck it up you are you're a man and deal with it

and I did to the best of my ability but now what I realize as an adult is that

it is the very emotion that results from our betrayals from our hurts from our

fears that can either be the source of our greatest strength or the the source

of what destroys us and Jesus said this in the Nagamadi library he says "If you

bring forth that which is within you it will save you if you deny that which that which is within you it will destroy

you and these are what we are now finding about the emotions now we know

this is the truth of the emotions that are either resolved and reconciled so that the neuropeptides are allowed to

move freely or unresolved that are stored in the tissues and organs that we associate with our trauma uh until we

either resolve them or if they are stored long enough unresolved they will show up as inflammation as a dysfunction

to call our attention to the organ so that we may resolve them and when we we

talk about the resolution of emotion chemically Candace Per the Harvard

trained MD that wrote the book Molecules of Emotion a brilliant brilliant work

she actually defined what does it mean to to heal and from a perspective of

these neuropeptides that result from unresolved trauma it is simply allowing them to flow freely in the body and

Healing the Body Through Emotion

metabolize out of the body when they metabolize they come out in breath urine perspiration the way that we typically

excrete from the body so all we're trying to do is to get these chemicals freed and released and there are a

number of ways to do that oxygenating the body through breath will do that breath techniques uh and by redefining

giving a different significance to the things that have hurt us in the past

this is where the heart comes in the answer to the question how do we awaken this potential uh first we have to

discover what this potential is and this is where the bulk of my life's journey

has led i'm a scientist i'm a degreed earth scientist a strong background in in the life sciences and what I found

early on Emmer if if you ask someone to draw the line where does science end in

spirituality and everyday life begin the moment you draw that line you have

just fallen into the ancient trap that keeps us stuck in the thinking uh and

the living that has prevented us from embracing the deepest truths of our

existence the deepest truths of our potential because what I understood came to understand as a scientist early in in

life back I was in school back in the 1950s 1960s early

1970s and what I found was that everything I was learning was placed

into these boxes there was a little box that was called geology and a little box called chemistry and another one physics

and you know mathematics and cosmology nature doesn't know about those boxes and neither does our lives so this is

why sometimes academia seems to fail us when we are are trying to solve the

problems of everyday life because we have been taught that we are separate

from the world around us that we are separate from ourselves and this is one

of those really beautiful places where science spirituality social policy and

everyday life come together in in a beautiful way uh because the truth is

that our ancestors understood our relationship to ourselves and to the

world around us on a very deep level they may not have been scientists as we describe them today but they definitely

understood that we are not what we've been told and we are so much more than we've ever imagined and so that led me

on on the journey to some of the most isolated and remote and pristine and

beautiful and mystical and magical places remaining on the earth from the the highlands of central China and Tibet

and the monks and the nuns and the abbotts and the monasteries and Nepal and India certainly and the Yucatan and

the shamans and the Kurandaros and the into the Andes mountains and the altiplano Bolivia and all through the

desert southwest and in the Aboriginal traditions of the great land of

Australia and more and the bottom line as different as these traditions are

there is a through line that connects them all and they all tell us that we

arrived on this earth intact with extraordinary potential where science

has asked us to believe that we developed slowly gradually over a long period of time now this is a very very

different way of thinking in the new science this is where where the science is just it's so very cool we now have

the ability to do what used to be science fiction we can extract we can extract the DNA from the fossilized

remains of ancient forms of life sounds like Jurassic Park yeah and then resurrect them even yeah well this is

Yeah jurassic Park was science fiction when it was written and to the best of my knowledge we are not resurrecting

these forms of life but we now have the ability we can actually pull the DNA

from the bone marrow of the beings that we were taught were our ancestors that we descended from and what we've

discovered is that we did not evolve slowly gradually over a long period of time neanderthal we didn't descender

from Neanderthal that we showed up we appeared on Earth 200,000 years ago

scientists agree with that no problem with the date the question is where do we come from how did we get here and why

is it that we haven't changed in 200,000 years this is not Darwin's idea of evolution so what the DNA is telling us

is that we have the cranial capacity we've got the the neural networks we've

got the physical structure that we arrived with with all of the extraordinary capabilities already

Ancient Teachings Meet Modern Science

intact they we were equipped with capabilities light years beyond what we

needed in the world to survive 200,000 years ago and it happened all of a

sudden it did not happen slowly gradually over this long period of time we have moved to the the online

streaming and the digital models i think what we're beginning to understand is

that we are more than the photons in the screen of a computer i'm seeing your

photons you're seeing mine but we obviously are feeling a connection and

that connection is more than just the the pluses and the minuses on the screen

we are connected and that we can feel the deep love of that connection even

when we are no longer able to meet physically and and I I'm I'm an optimist

i believe we will be meeting i'm also a realist and realistically we're going

through uh a a huge pivotal monumental shift in the way we think and the way we

live and when we come out of that shift I think we will appreciate our connection on an even deeper level when

we talk about the hurts of life one of the things that I learned very early is that my hurt was directly linked to my

perception of the hurt what I recognized is that the person that I blamed for the

hurt did what they felt they need to do in their lives and the only way it was

possible for me to hurt was to compare what happened in that moment to another

moment and think about this because when the moment is all that there is and

there is no past that you're comparing it to the moment feels very differently

so what I found was that my emotions were very very closely linked with the

expectations uh and my attachment to my past whether

that past was an hour ago or whether that past was a year ago knowing

this I began to experiment with myself and say "What if what if now is all

there is how would I feel about my partner breaking up with me or

my friend betraying me how would I feel about that it doesn't change what happens because we can't always change

what happens we are definitely empowered to change the way we respond to what happens and if you think about your life

when your heart is broken and when you feel betrayed it typically is because we are making a comparison

between the moment and something in the past and the question is what do we use

as our frame of reference what do we use as that point of reference the same is true with self-esteem when people say uh

you know I' I'd like to be in better shape or uh I'd like to be a better artist or I'd like to be a better

musician and I understand the intent and I think it's good to want to improve but

we can only be better this is really subtle that's very very powerful we can

only think that we need to be better when we are comparing what we are now to something else if we are not making that

comparison all we are is what we are in the moment and if if we have truly done I I'll speak to our viewers if they have

truly done what they believe is is their best effort in the moment then there cannot be anything any better so I was

asked recently uh about my failures in life greg what are your greatest failures in life and my answer was not

what the interviewer was expecting because from my perspective I honestly believe I have no failures in my life

there are many times when the outcome has not been what I thought the outcome was going to be but what I have chosen

to do is when I go forward with anything in life if I say yes to an invitation if I say yes to a commitment and I'm in

100% and I do all that I could possibly do given those circumstances in that

moment and I could do nothing else that's all I could do and it's impossible for me to fail now the

outcome I may have expectations of an outcome that change but I've never thought of that as a failure and I know

it's subtle it's a very different way of thinking but it also has freed me from the polarity of the success failure

paradigm uh and allowed me to move forward with new choices in in my life and I continue I'm a student i am a

Science, Spirituality & Emotional Alchemy

student of understanding myself my relationship to the world and I continue to do these things one of the hallmarks

of a dysfunctional alcoholic family is is tremendous criticism and uh the the

lack of a spiritual connection to anything so I was not raised in any

particular faith um my explorations as I began studying

uh well as a child I was studying ancient civilizations ancient technologies and books and that the

moment I had the money uh to go to some of these places uh I began not only to

experience the archaeological legacies but the spiritual traditions of the

people so whether I was with the Bedwins in Egypt which was my first trip or it led me into the the Andes Mountains of

of southern Peru and the the shamans and the Kurandaros and the mystics and into

the Yucatan of Mexico and the shamans and the healers and then the monks and nuns and Tibet and Nepal and India and

all through the American desert southwest and then in Australia into the Aboriginal traditions and into Africa

what I found was that our global

family has memories and we have stories that help us to embrace what we

experience in our lives hopefully in in a healthy way and as different as they all are from one another there are

common threads and that common thread is that we are the product of an intentional act rather than the result

of random mutations and random processes now as a scientist I was taught that we

are the product that we live in a dead inert universe the product of the big bang that we are the product of lucky

biology and that competition conflict and struggle is what has given us the

power to prevail over other forms of life that's my teaching as a geologist

what I have to say is that the indigenous wisdom ran counter to that

and then that led me into the science and I've got to tell you honest to God the best science of the modern world has

overturned what I was taught when I was in school the best science of the modern world tells us that we are not the

product of evolution as we've been led to believe so I want to be very very

clear with our our viewers i am a geologist i believe in evolution it's a fact i've seen it in the fossil record

for many forms of life plants animals insects that theory breaks down when it comes to humans and the new DNA science

is what's really causing the ripples in the scientific community because when we

compare our DNA today we now have the ability to extract

the DNA from the fossilized remains of beings that we used to think we

descended from and when we do that and compare our DNA to theirs we find that

we did not descend from those beings that we appeared on Earth 200,000 years

ago scientists agree with the date uh as what are called anatomically modern humans and we haven't changed we have

not changed in 200 physically we have the same nervous system we have the same

uh body proportions same cranial capacity i believe that we have evolved

consciously i think consciousness definitely has evolved but what it says

uh and when you really get into the the deep science of the universe itself and

our relationship to the universe the odds of us being the product of a random

process are just infantessimal uh Sir Fred Hy the British

astrophysicist said "The odds of our DNA forming from random processes are the

equivalent of a tornado moving through a junkyard and

leaving a fully assembled Boeing 747 in its wake and we know that's not going to

happen." So what the the new science the bottom line the new science is telling us that we live in a universe that is

alive and conscious it is not dead and inert where we would expect to see life

in many forms in many ways uh where everything is connected and that we as

Indigenous Wisdom and the DNA of Potential

physical beings are the product of and I have to say this as a scientist we are

the product of some form of intervention has happened in the past to bring us to

the point that we are today honest i'm I'm an optimist and I'm also a realist

and I am optimistic about our world and our future in the long term realistically we're going to go through

some turmoil to get to that to that world because I'm just going to invite our listeners just to consider this and

I'm going to speak directly to them do you know what a powerful being it takes to live in the world that we are living

in right now where we are seeing and experiencing the collapse of everything

that we have been taught to trust and depend upon that was built upon quicksand in the past to to let that

world go without having the certainty of what comes next already in place you

know what a powerful being that takes and that's precisely where we are right now and all we have is ourselves and

ultimately that's all we need because when we recognize the power and the mastery

that's available within us that has been with us from the moment we appeared on

Earth 200,000 years ago what it says we are evolving and I believe we are

evolving in consciousness our body may not have changed but we are definitely evolving in consciousness and it means

it means I'm a musician as well as a scientist so I'm going to use my musicians poetry here it means that we

are the artists as well as the art we are the artists

designing what we're about to live is the art of our society of our

communities that are evolving right now so inspired evolution is to me when I hear the word

inspired evolution it says to me that I'm part of the process and I am an

architect of the process rather than expering it as something happening to me

when the world begins to change there's a fear and in that fear people

communities societies governments nations will try to cling to an image

and an idea of the familiar world of the past

we can't go back to that world because it doesn't exist that world is gone and

this is where the suffering comes from because we're trying to apply the way

we've been taught to deal with the past all right we're trying to apply that in a new world but the new world doesn't

work like the world of the past so we need new ways of thinking new ways of living and it comes down to something

very simple two things the most simple is about love the bottom line do we love

ourselves enough to live our lives in a way that gives our bodies what they need

to do what they know how to do really well do we love ourselves enough to live

and to think in a way that allows the best version of ourselves and the best

versions of our families and communities to come forward and the science tells us how to do that science is telling us

what we need to do to self-regulate our immune system and it's all the things we already know diet exercise nutrition but

there are new new discoveries in terms of diet new discoveries in terms of

exercise and nutrition i mean just for example when I when I was um back in my

30s 40s and 50s back in those days I was taught that steady state exercise was

the key so you go out and you know you you you you'd run a half marathon or you

run on the treadmill for an hour or whatever it is now we know that that may

not be the optimum form of exercise for a lot of people what now uh the human

body is built for what's called HIIT highintensity interval training that's our biology is is based upon that when

we optimize our our biology that I mean that's about hormone balance it's about

testosterone in men and women estrogen in men and women uh DHEA levels and all

of those things we know that we have a new class of stem cells has just been

discovered we used to think that people lose stem cells as they age and we now know that you can be a hundred years old

and have access to stem cells maybe not as easy but that they didn't disappear

it's how you get to them and nutrition and movement are keys to to doing this

so do we love ourselves enough to to give our bodies what they need to do

what they are made to do and when when we begin to embrace that mastery all of

a sudden change looks a lot less scary when we become the best versions of

ourselves we fear the outer world that change less we fear one another less and

perhaps most importantly we fear our own power we are extraordinarily powerful beings and we're taught to discount and

deny that power and in our powerlessness this is what's happening in the world

right now there's a lot of hurt in the world for a lot of reasons we typically

are not taught how to heal that hurt so what happens is the hurt needs to be

expressed and it's expressed as fear and it's expressed as hate unresolved hurt

becomes the the fear and the hate in the world and we're seeing a world of hurt

when we begin to resolve the hurt that we have within us with a lot of reasons

we've all we're all experiencing loss we're mourning the loss of a way of life

every one of us has lost something we've lost freedoms we've lost family members we've lost jobs and careers if you don't

know how to heal that there's a lot of hurt that comes with that and that hurt can be expressed as fear for what the

unknown and as hate for those that represent something other than what

Awakening the Global Family

we're familiar with so all of this is up for us right now and the science is giving us the

tools that allow us to transcend not just survive but to transcend but to do

it we've got to let go of the old ways of thinking and I think that's that's probably the hardest thing when we talk

about the hurts of life one of the things that I learned very early is that my hurt was directly linked to my

perception of the hurt what I recognized is that the person that I blamed for the

hurt did what they felt they need to do in their lives and the only way it was

possible for me to hurt was to compare what happened in that moment to another

moment think about this because when the moment is all that

there is and there is no past that you're comparing it to the moment feels

very differently so what I found was that my emotions were very very closely

linked with the expectations uh and my attachment to my past whether

that past was an hour ago or whether that past was a year ago knowing

this I began to experiment with myself and say "What if what if now is all

there is how would I feel about my partner breaking up with me or my friend

betraying me how would I feel about that doesn't change what happens because we can't always change what happens we are

definitely empowered to change the way we respond to what happens and if you think about your life when your heart is

broken and when you feel betrayed it typically is because we are making a comparison

between the moment and something in the past and the question is what do we use

as our frame of reference what do we use as that point of reference the same is true with self-esteem when people say uh

you know I' I'd like to be in better shape or uh I'd like to be a better artist or I'd like to be a better

musician and I understand the intent and I think it's good to want to improve but

we can only be better this is really subtle that's very very powerful we can

only think that we need to be better when we are comparing what we are now to something else if we are not making that

comparison all we are is what we are in the moment and if if we have truly done I'll I'll speak to our viewers if they

have truly done what they believe is is their best effort in the moment then there cannot be anything any better so I

was asked recently uh about my failures in life greg what are your greatest failures in life and my answer was not

what the interviewer was expecting because from my perspective I honestly believe I have no failures in my life

there are many times when the outcome has not been what I thought the outcome was going to be but what I have chosen

to do is when I go forward with anything in life if I say yes to an invitation if I say yes to a commitment and I'm in

100% and I do all that I could possibly do given those circumstances in that

moment and I could do nothing else that's all I could do and it's impossible for me to fail now the

outcome I may have expectations of an outcome that change but I've never thought of that as a failure i have

people say something similar to me all the time you know I don't have time to understand myself because uh I'm trying

to put food in my table and feed my family or I'm trying to do my best in school and uh and those I understand all

of that here's the thing we have been conditioned to live in a world through a way of thinking that has served us in

the past and we have to say it served us because you and I are here now so it worked well enough to get us here

that way of thinking worked in the world that the way it used to be the world just changed and nobody told us it there

was no special on CNN you know or or the Discovery Channel hey you know the world changed i wish there was so we've never

been given the opportunity to even mourn the passing of the world that no longer

exists so we're trying to solve our problems and think about ourselves the

way we always have in a world that changed and it doesn't it doesn't fit it no longer fits so yes we've got all

A Call to Action: Becoming Your Best Self

these little things going on but what I found in my own life personally if I can back up and shift the paradigm and I'll

tell you what I mean by that but if I can shift the paradigm within which I'm seeing everything all of a sudden all

those little things take on a whole new meaning and they become a lot less a lot less of a problem they come become much

easier the paradigm is this we have been conditioned uh steeped in a story of who

we are that is based in separation competition and conflict it began in 1859 people say to me Greg 1859 you know

it was over 100 years ago 150 years ago so what you know it's a good question what difference does that make it's a

good question here's the answer the world we live in the society the

economic system the corporations the medical model the way that we're taught to provide for our families the way that

we are taught to have the most intimate relationships under the roof with the

people that we share our homes and even our bed with i mean let's just get real we are taught to interact with

humans based upon these ideas of competition conflict and separation and

even the most spiritually minded people that say "I've transcended that." When they are in a heated discussion and

somebody pushes their buttons they go to that lowest common denominator often of competition comp they will lash out with

something really hurtful to defend themselves it's not their fault it's deeply ingrained in our subconscious so

as not if because it's already happening as we back off and embrace the new paradigm of cooperation and mutual aid

that is huge it is a hugely different way of thinking it means we live in a world that likes us where nature is not

out to snuff out every good thing that happens to us it means we don't have to be constantly vigilant and defending

ourselves from the world around us that is a hugely vastly different way of thinking and we have an opportunity now

to begin with an entire generation of young people who now are steeped in the

glamour of war conflict and competition to make that shift what would it look

like to have a world where we have an entire generation of young people that know that nature likes them and that we

live in a world of cooperation and mutual aid and connection we're about to

find out we don't have to wait long to find out so for me simply backing up out

of the minutia momentarily to look at the big picture

and to make that shift and once we make that shift when you go back into the minutia uh everything looks different to
