Key Takeaways:

[2:12] Connor updates us on his super bizarre Instagram creepy-stalker-follow situation. Pro tip: don’t pay $1,000 to try and get the girl when you can at least follow all The Adonyx methods for way less.

[12:53] One of the techniques Connor uses to ease the stress of being as popular and sought after as he is is meditation. Some people might think it’s some weird spiritual practice, but we break down the science and actual evidence-based benefits behind it.

[23:41] Brandon started meditating to control his anger and spazzy nature. Meditation helps lower your cortisol and harness the fight-or-flight reaction in our day to day life. He finds that it helps him stay focused, clear-headed and less responsive to the haters.

[28:31] Connor tells his never-told-before story of how he was robbed at gunpoint. He regrets not blogging it to this day. The experience was so traumatic to him that it caused a lot of generalized fear, which meditation helps heal.
